Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1010

Although Wilhelm wanted more, he hesitated briefly before obediently putting down his spoon.

"Okay, Mommy," he said.

His compliance sparked a brief flicker of guilt in Jane's eyes. But the feeling vanished as quickly as it had come, replaced by a calm determination.

After settling the bill, she led Wilhelm back to the car.

As soon as they were on the road, Wilhelm began squirming in his seat, scratching himself furiously. His small face scrunched in discomfort as he complained, "Mommy… I don't feel good. I'm itchy all over…"

Jane glanced at him and saw red spots breaking out across his skin.

"Hold on, Mommy's taking you to the hospital right now," she said.

She sped toward the nearest hospital, reaching it in less than ten minutes.

…

By the time Jane pulled into the ER, Wilhelm's face was covered in hives. He was clawing at himself, leaving red marks all over his pale skin.

Jane rushed to unbuckle him and carried him inside, moving quickly toward the emergency desk.

A doctor approached immediately and asked, "What happened?"

"Food allergy," Jane said anxiously.

"Lay him on that bed over there," the doctor instructed.

As the medical team got to work, Jane stepped aside and called Wren, her voice shaky with panic. She explained what had happened and begged her to come to the hospital.

Wren was startled and immediately called Gabriel.

"I understand. Which hospital are you at? I'll be there right away," Gabriel said.
