“Yes.” Romina glanced at her indifferently, then fixed her gaze on the child: “Leave.”
Nadine’s brows knitted tightly: “With Kash like this, I don’t feel comfortable leaving. I can’t
go…”
“Staying here won’t help. You’ll only delay his treatment, and I might need to give him physical therapy…”
Before Romina could finish, Nadine interrupted her: “What are you saying? He’s so young, how could he possibly need physical therapy? Are you out of your mind?”
“Am I the doctor, or are you?”
Romina’s expression darkened, her eyes filled with a chilling coldness.
“You…”
་་
Nadine was furious, but suddenly found herself at a loss for words.
“Butler, please escort Ms. Lambert to the living room for some tea. If she refuses, send her home.”
When Romina entered, the butler had been waiting at the door, and was likely still outside.
Sure enough, the next second the butler walked in.
“Ms. Lambert, please come with me! Don’t delay Mrs. Bowman in treating Mr. Kashton.” After escorting her out, the butler quickly closed the door.
Outside, Nadine’s displeased voice could be heard: “What did you just call her? Mrs. Bowman? She already gave Jericho the divorce papers–how is she still Mrs. Bowman?”
“As long as Mr. Jericho hasn’t said otherwise, we can only call her Mrs. Bowman…….

“No sense at all!”
Listening to their back–and–forth, Romina suddenly found it all rather ridiculous.

So eager to become Mrs. Bowman?
Romina devoted herself entirely to the child, giving him a pulse diagnosis and performing physical therapy.
Recently, his spleen and stomach haven’t been well. It must be because he ate something wrong, which led to his diarrhea.
It seemed his body was exhausted; even after the physical therapy, the child had not yet woken up.
After taking care of the child, she tiptoed out of the room.
The butler and the nanny were already standing at the door, waiting for Romina to come out.
Romina handed the medicine to the nanny beside her: “Soak this medicine for half an hour, then boil it for twenty minutes, and simmer on low heat for another ten minutes. When it’s warm, you can give it to him to drink. I’ve done physical therapy for him, so he can’t bathe tonight. Let him rest well.”
“Alright.”
The nanny quickly took the herbal medicine.
“The situation has already improved. There shouldn’t be any more emergencies tonight, but if there are, call me immediately. Also, don’t let him eat too many foods that cause internal heat these days…”
Before Romina could finish her sentence, the butler interrupted her: “Recently, it’s been Ms. Lambert who cooks for Mr. Kashton.”
“Why is she the one cooking for the child?”
Romina looked at him in confusion.
“Ms. Lambert has been learning to cook lately. She often lets Mr. Kashton choose the dishes, and every time he picks something, it’s always food that causes internal heat–fried chicken wings, grilled squid, pan–fried ribs…”
Upon hearing this, Romina’s expression instantly darkened: “Alright, I’ll go talk to her.
She quickly went downstairs and saw Nadine sitting in the living room. When Nadine heard footsteps coming from the stairs, she immediately turned to look.

“How is he?”
Nadine quickly approached, her brows slightly furrowed.
Standing face to face with her, Romina’s expression was as cold as ever: “Have you been giving Kashton a lot of fried food lately?”
After hearing her words, a trace of nervousness appeared on Nadine’s face: “How did you know?”
“He can’t eat fried food. Don’t give it to him anymore.” Romina’s voice was icy cold. “Children at this age should mainly eat light food, and Kashton’s stomach has always been delicate. Ms. Lambert, you’ve been with him for so many years–don’t you know that?”
“I know his stomach isn’t great, but if he wants to eat it, why not let him? It’s not like he eats it all the time. What’s wrong with having it once in a while?”
“What’s wrong?” Romina’s lips curled into a cold, mocking smile. “The child has been having diarrhea nonstop. What do you think is wrong? Isn’t it all thanks to you!”
Nadine was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down.
“Don’t mess with his stomach anymore. Give him less of these things. After all, being a mother isn’t easy, and being a ‘stepmother‘ is even harder.”
If you didn’t give birth to him yourself, you just don’t know how to feel real concern.
Although Kashton doesn’t really like her, he is still the child she carried for ten months and gave birth to.
If he wasn’t feeling well, how could she, as his mother, just stand by and do nothing?
A frightening layer of anger appeared in Nadine’s eyes, and her fingers at her sides unconsciously clenched.
