The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191 

“You could say that.” 

“Mrs. Salstrom’s injuries are pretty severe,” Dr. Schuler said. “The car wreckage practically went straight through her waist. If she were to get pregnant, it would be a heavy burden for her. At best, we might lose the baby, and at worst…” We could lose her. 

Although it was early to talk about this, Dr. Schuler decided to spill all the beans. 

“Alright, I got it.” It only took Herman a few seconds to digest the news. He said in a deep voice, “Right now, all I can hope for is my wife waking up.” As for the rest, he didn’t dare to wish or ask for too much. 

Everyone at the hospital saw how devoted Herman was to Anastasia. Guys like him were as rare as hens’ teeth, especially considering he was the CEO of Elysian Technologies. Deep down, Dr. Schuler admired Herman. 

When Herman returned to the ward, Salma had brought over some chicken soup. Even though Anastasia was still unconscious, Salma often prepared these nutritious foods, hoping that Anastasia could have a hot sip as soon as she woke up. 

Seeing Herman coming back, Katelyn asked, “Herman, what did Dr. Schuler say?” 

When Salma was around, Katelyn would never call him son. With Anastasia still unconscious and Salma feeling down, it wasn’t the right time to spill the beans. 

Salma also anxiously asked, “Did Dr. Schuler say when Ana would wake up?” 

“Soon,” Herman half-lied. “Anastasia’s injuries are recovering. She will wake up soon.” 

Hearing this, Salma felt relieved. “That’s good,” she said, handing the chicken soup to Herman. “You’ve been taking such good care of Ana this past month, and you’ve lost weight. You should drink this soup. It’s good for your body.” 

Salma was very pleased with Herman’s care for Anastasia. He was always there for her, spending both time and money. She knew she made the right choice with this son-in-law. 

“Alright, I’ll drink it later,” Herman said. “Salma, you guys should go home and rest. I’ll stay here tonight.” 

For the past month, it was always Herman who stayed the night. He only left the hospital during the day to freshen up. 

“You should also get some rest and take care of yourself,” Salma reminded him. 

After Salma and Katelyn left, Herman finished the soup and took the toy Pattie had sent. He stood by the bed, telling Anastasia about funny stories from Pattie’s kindergarten. “Anastasia, Pattie has made a lot of friends at school. That little girl is really adaptable. This is the toy she sent you, Peppa Pig…” 

Even though he knew Anastasia wouldn’t respond, Herman patiently told her all about it. 

Night fell quickly.
