Chapter 96 Catelyn sniffled as she tried to suppress the sorrow she felt.
Ollie was just a child that was barely four-year-old after all, so he would not press on a topic that he knew would upset Catelyn. With that, he tried whatever he could to cheer Catelyn up and talked about the things that happened at school, such as what the teacher taught them, what he did, and how many red flowers he had gotten.
Catelyn’s attention was diverted, but the despair she felt lingered, all while she wondered if her baby would have survived had she been more careful.
At noon, the Mexicaean meat stew came fresh out of the stove.
Both Stella and Catelyn were excited, but Ollie could not help but feel troubled.
He could not stomach spicy food. Just a little bit from last time had him suffering through hell, and the dinner right in front of him at the moment was clearly even spicier. He could only scowl at the food.
“Miles, why aren’t you eating?” Catelyn filled his plate with a spoonful of stew.
Ollie summoned his courage and forced a smile to pretend like he was pleased, before swallowing the meat without chewing. “I just like it so much that I didn’t know where to start.
“You naughty boy! You only like your mom’s cooking and not mine, huh?” Stella teased.
Ollie smiled. “Grandma’s cooking is great, too.”
“I don’t want your fake compliments.”
To keep them from noticing, Ollie gulped down his food without chewing. Everything went down into his stomach with the rice, and soon, a burning sensation spread throughout his body from his stomach. His forehead was beaded with sweat that scrolled down his face.
Catelyn sensed that something was wrong and immediately helped to wipe away his sweat. ” Miles, are you okay?”
…I’m fine,” he answered before gulping down his water. Catelyn had a bad feeling about this, but Stella said casually, “My, it looks like Miles is eating too fast! It’s okay, just let him take a break…”
Still concerned, Catelyn said, “Miles, you have to let me know if you feel unwell, alright?”
At the same time, Ollie suddenly reached up to cover his mouth as he struggled to get the words out. “Mommy, 1- I want to vomit…” His face was flushed, and his shoulders were twitching as though he was about to puke.
Both Catelyn and Stella were startled at this, and Catelyn immediately carried Ollie to the bathroom
“Urgh!”
Ollie leaned over the sink and vomited everything he had eaten. His face was beginning to turn pale, and all his strength was drained from his limbs as he placed a hand over his stomach. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Catelyn stroked Ollie on the back, terrified and empathetic, before wetting a towel to help wipe the oil at the corner of his mouth. She then hastily took him to the hospital with her.
Ollie smoothed his fingers over the frown on her face and insisted stubbornly, “I’m fine. I just need to take some rest! I’m sorry, Mommy, I didn’t mean to waste the food you made…” “I’m the one who should say sorry, silly! If only I hadn’t piled so much food on your plate.” Catelyn urged the driver to go faster, and just like that, the two arrived at the hospital. Catelyn’s heart ached as she carried her son in her arms. He never vomited after eating something spicy before. Ollie tried to fake a smile so that he looked more relaxed, but his colorless lips were enough to prove that he was in pain.
Inside the hospital, the doctor examined Ollie.
