The Bound Between Us

Chapter 248

According to Anastasia, the doctors conducted some allergy tests on Pattie. It turns out that Pattie was indeed allergic to cilantro.

After nearly an hour of medical hustle and bustle and some medication, Pattie’s allergic reaction was finally under control. However, her stomach was empty, and she was weak as a kitten, looking quite pitiful. As the doctors wheeled Pattie out of the ER, Anastasia’s eyes instantly welled up.

She was scared out of her wits, thinking that Pattie was in real danger. Seeing Pattie come out of the ER safe and sound, her heart finally settled back into place. Herman also breathed a sigh of relief. From their home to the hospital and through the nerve-wracking hour, both Hermani and Anastasia felt like they were on an emotional roller coaster. They realized they still had a lot to learn when it came to taking care of a child.

Back in the ward, Anastasia gave Pattie some lemon saltwater to revive her, while Herman went to get some light food to fill her up.

Seeing Pattie was okay, Anastasia finally stepped out into the corridor to call Salma and let her know everything was fine. “She’s okay. She’s allergic to cilantro. The doctor said it’s a good thing we got her here in time, or it could’ve been really bad.” Anastasia said.
