Chapter 396

Anastasia felt a chill running down her spine, both from Layna’s maliciousness and concern for Pattie’s wellbeing.

When Herman had brought Pattie to the hospital, her face was smeared with blood, which was a sight that shook them to the core.

The love Herman had for Pattie was no secret to Anastasia. Despite not being related by blood, Herman treated Pattie like his own daughter. He would buy her the best and the most expensive of everything, had even decorated a pink princess room for her in their new house, and built a mini amusement park in their backyard.

When Layna “woke up” from her trance, she was led to the emergency room by Salma. Anastasia was afraid when she saw Layna. She didn’t know how to face this child anymore.

“Ana, how’s Pattie doing?” Salma asked anxiously.

Anastasia replied, “She’s still inside. We have to wait for the doctor to come out to know -more.”

Layna, sensing the tense atmosphere, softly called out, “Mom.”

Anastasia couldn’t respond this time. She couldn’t even bear to look at Layna.
