Winnie rushed downstairs and returned to her home. As expected, she saw Jacinta, who fell in the bathroom.

She hurriedly asked, “Granny, are you hurt? Can you still move your legs? How about your lower back?”

“Ouch!” Jacinta put her hand on her waist. “My legs are fine. It’s just that my waist and rib cage hurt. I probably sprained my lower back.”

“And your rib cage as well?” Winnie asked. She learned traditional medicine from Sebastian for some time, and she had some experience in dealing with injuries like gunshot wounds and fractures. Therefore, she reached out to touch Jacinta’s ribs. “Let me see if there’s a fracture.”

Jacinta inhaled sharply in pain. “I don’t think it’s a fracture. It’s probably just muscle strain.”

Winnie nodded. “Right. There is indeed no problem with your bones, but the possibility of a fissure fracture is not ruled out. I can’t detect it by mere palpation. We can only go to the hospital to take an X-ray to find out. I’ll send you to the hospital.”

Jacinta refused her immediately, “There’s no need for that! It’s just a sprain. It’s getting late. I just want to rest. Let me sleep first, and if it still hurts tomorrow, you can bring me to the hospital. If it doesn’t hurt tomorrow, we don’t need to go, then.”

It was indeed getting late at the moment. Winnie agreed thinking that it was not a serious injury.

“I’ll help you to the bed first. Even if it’s a sprain, it’s best to go to the hospital to get some medicine tomorrow.”

Jacinta sighed. “It’s my bad for being careless. It doesn’t affect you and Xavier, does it?”

Winnie shook her head. “No. I was the one who wasn’t thoughtful enough. I’ll ask someone to put a non-slip mat in the bathroom tomorrow.”

As Winnie said that, she helped Jacinta to her feet slowly.

After Jacinta was brought to bed, she asked, “What if I need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night?”

“Of course, I’ll help you. I’ll sleep here with you tonight,” Winnie replied.

“You’re not going up?”
