In the tumultuous scene, a mother, cradling her child in her arms, implored, “Dr. Thorne is the one who saved your life! Could you please just behave for a bit?”

The child, tears streaming down his face, was desperately seeking comfort from his accompanying grandmother.

The parents who had brought their children were unified in their stance, each echoing the sentiment. “You must listen to Dr. Thorne. Without the injection, your illness won’t get better.”

“Are you really going to ignore Dr. Thorne’s advice now?”

The parents used a combination of persuasion and gentle coercion, but their primary focus remained firmly on the medical treatment. They showed considerable support for Lysander’s efforts.

Once Lysander had successfully calmed all the children, it was apparent that the nurses were completely worn out from the effort. Despite this, when they noticed Josiah standing off to the side while holding a lunch box, they didn’t miss a chance to flash a cheeky smile at Lysander before they headed back to their dorm for a meal.

Josiah remarked as he approached, “I’ve kept the lunch box warm all the way here, so it should still be hot. You better eat it while it’s warm.”
