Hearing Astrid's words, all the experts were so pissed off they were speechless.
"Thanks." Astrid gave Elio's arm a gentle pat, then took out a pen and paper to write down a prescription and handed it to Wylie, "Take the medicine every six hours for the first three days, 150 ml each time. Then three times a day, 100 ml each time after three days. Once she can get out of bed, you contact this number, and I'll give you the new meds."
"Thank you, Aster, thank you!" Wylie was over the moon, "Aster, it's getting late, why don't you crash at my place tonight?"
Astrid waved her off, "I've got some stuff to deal with. I'm afraid I won't make it in time. Thanks for the offer though."
She had stuff to deal with?
Wylie looked puzzled, while Elio's eyebrows furrowed.
Astrid didn't look back as she walked down the stairs, and before she was out the door, she heard commotion behind her.
The moment she turned her head, a little boy had wrapped his arms around her leg.
Roman was beyond thrilled, he hadn't expected to see Astrid again so soon.
What a surprise!
This time he was determined not to let Astrid slip away!
Roman looked up at Astrid, then stretched out his little hand and said, "Hold me."
"Alright, I'll hold you." Astrid bent down to pick up Roman. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him.
Roman held Astrid's neck and said very seriously, "We have a kismet connection, don't we?"
Elio, standing at the top of the stairs, frowned slightly at this. Roman was bright and emotionally intelligent, but because his father was often busy and not home, his verbal skills were still lacking.
He was surprised that Roman took such a liking to Astrid.
Roman, "This is the second time I've seen you, and you're even prettier than last time!"
"You're such an angel, so cute, so endearing!" Astrid turned to look at Roman's face and couldn't help but plant a kiss on it.
