Chapter 9 opens with Anastasia attempting to piece together the fragments of her forgotten memories, haunted by the striking resemblance of their daughter to a past she never knew she had. The quaint charm of Riverdale transforms into a landscape of uncertainty as Herman, determined to unearth the truth, confronts Anastasia with questions that demand answers.
Considering the recent ordeal where her mother threatened to take her own life because she was forcing her to go on blind dates, Anastasia was scared out of her wits.
Upon reaching the hospital, Anastasia found out from the nurse station that her mom was on the third floor. Without wasting any time, she dashed upstairs with Herman hot on her heels.
In the ward, her mom, Salma, just woke up. The doctor walked over with the medical report in hand. "Nothing serious, just low blood sugar. She needs to rest and eat on time. It'd be best to carry some candies on you."
Salma couldn't believe what she was hearing. "I only have low blood sugar?"
A few months ago, she was diagnosed with cancer in this very hospital. After fainting, she thought she was done for.
The doctor confidently reassured her, "You indeed only have low blood sugar. A bit of rest and you can be discharged."
"But doc, could you double-check to see if I have any other illnesses..."
"Mum," Anastasia walked over, her eyes red and teary. "Mum, are you okay? Why did you faint all of a sudden? Doc, what's wrong with my mom?"
The doctor replied, "You must be a family member. The patient just has low blood sugar due to overexertion. As long as she rests and eats on time, it's nothing serious."
Anastasia breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. On her way here, she had feared for the worst.
Salma was somewhat confused, "Doctor, don't I have any other diseases? Three months ago, I was diagnosed with cancer in your hospital."
Hearing the word 'cancer,' Anastasia turned pale and looked at the doctor.
The doctor said, "According to the test results, no other diseases were found. If you're still worried, we can do a comprehensive check."
Anastasia immediately agreed, "Yes, let's do that." Only a thorough check could put her mind at ease.
The doctor said, "Alright then, go make the payment."
Shortly thereafter, the second test results came out, confirming that Salma only had low blood sugar and was cancer-free.
