The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 230

Chapter 230 

Anastasia took Pattie to the hospital, her heart aching at the sight of Pattie’s wounds, and she was pissed off. She couldn’t stand Penny’s abuse towards Pattie. 

The doctor checked Pattie’s pupils and cooled her down, scolding, “Why didn’t you bring her in sooner? As her guardian, how could you be so irresponsible? Any longer, and she could have been in real danger.” 

High fever could really be a threat to life; it could even trigger cerebral palsy, meningitis, and all kinds of complications. 

Anastasia regretted not insisting on having Pattie with her in the first place. “Doctor, please save this child.” 

The doctor said, “You go outside and wait, then pay the fee.” 

“Alright.” Anastasia rushed to pay the fee and left the cop to watch Pattie. She had intentionally chosen a hospital with a cop, it was the best evidence, and it would prove Penny’s abuse of Pattie. If she wanted to adopt Pattie again, this would make things easier. 

Leo and Penny were not Pattie’s biological parents. Even if they were legal guardians, if they were abusive, they could lose their guardianship rights. 

Pattie had been running a high fever, and Anastasia was waiting in the hospital. As for Salma Jewell, she had to ask Monica Franco to look after her mother. 

She didn’t call Herman, worried it would interfere with his work. 

When Penny came home from playing poker, she found the door to her house had been kicked in, and Pattie was gone. Penny stood at the door and muttered loudly, “Who the hell did this? They broke my expensive door.” 

The neighbor came out and said, “Penny, you better go check on Pattie at the hospital. The cops were here this morning, and they took Pattie to the hospital.” 

Hearing that the cops had been at her house, Penny was a little panicked. “Why would the cops come? Pattie was taken to the hospital by the cops?” 

The neighbor said, “Yes, and also a resident of our complex, you better go check at the hospital.” 

“Alright, alright,” Penny answered verbally, but she had no intention of going to the hospital. If she went to the hospital, she would definitely have to pay for Pattie’s treatment, and she didn’t want to spend the money. If someone else was willing to take care of Pattie, then let them pay for it.. 

Just as Penny walked into the house, Leo called, “Did you beat Pattie again? The cop called me. Pattie is in the hospital. Where are 

you?” 

Leo seemed very angry on the phone; he felt helpless.
