Chapter 1042 Oscar Had Missed Her
"No, no, no." the nurse seemed to be startled as she heard Besse's words.
She quickly said, "Commander is heavily guarded and we can't replace out his specific condition. All information about Commander has been sealed off, even the floor where he is being treated has been locked down."
Besse listened intently, knowing the nurse wasn't trying to deceive her.
It was only reasonable for Oscar to receive such treatment as a Commander of the country. And news of his injury couldn't be spread because it would cause international turmoil. "Miss Besse, please eat something when you wake up," the nurse said. "The doctor says you're weak now and you can have something nutritious."
Besse nodded in agreement. Doyle had gotten through his dangerous period and Oscar didn't need her worrying about him right now. She needed to take care of herself at this moment.
With the help of the nurses, Besse ate dinner but found herself unable to sleep due to having slept too long earlier. Just as she was thinking about getting up to check on Doyle, the door of her ward opened with a push from someone outside.
She saw Susan with swollen eyes standing at her bedside saying, "Besse!" Her voice choked with emotion. She was followed by Manuel, who came in behind her.
"Are you okay?!" Susan asked worriedly as she approached Besse's bed.
"I'm fine," Besse replied calmly. "I had some fractures from the car accident but after surgery and rest for a while I'll be fine."
"That's good! You know when you called me today I almost died from fright," Susan said with lingering fear in her voice before continuing, "When you called me, I wanted so badly to come save you but Manuel wouldn't allow me to!"
Fortunately, Manuel hadn't let Susan come to the scene. Or she might have done something reckless. Besides, she was pregnant.
"You've saved me, you informed Oscar, isn't it?" Besse smiled reassuringly before continuing, "Thanks to the well-timed rescue, we were saved. Doyle just got injured more severely than me but he'll recover after resting for some time."
"Is Doyle alright now?" asked Susan.
"He should be fine," replied Besse.
"But what about Oscar...?" Susan suddenly stopped.
After their accident happened, Manuel let her stay home while waiting for news updates regarding their situation. She couldn't resist the urge to go to the scene, but after Manuel told her about the pros and cons, she held back and waited at home, until they finally received news that the kidnappers had been killed and others were sent to the hospital. Until then, Susan couldn't wait any longer and wanted to go to the hospital immediately. Manuel wasn't calm either. So he quickly drove Susan to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, they went straight to see Oscar, who was in surgery for a long time. They waited outside of surgery while listening intermittently as people reported that Besse had finished surgery and was sent to a ward and that Doyle also finished his surgery. After hearing the news, it seemed like their physical condition wasn't within Manuel's or Theodore's concern; all their attention was on Oscar. Susan felt how tense everything was, so she didn't dare say much. She knew Oscar had been pushed out of surgery into the intensive care unit. Once everything had been arranged properly, Susan asked Manuel if he could accompany her when visiting Besse.
When Besse heard Susan hesitate with her words for a moment, she understood that they must know about his condition.
But then she didn't want to probe into things about that man all of a sudden.
Susan saw how indifferent Besse seemed, so she decided not to tell her at that moment.
Although Oscar came out of surgery, he remained unconscious; if he didn't wake up tonight, no one knew what would happen next.
"I heard it's Doyle's enemies seeking revenge." Susan changed the topic.
"Hmm," nodded Besse.
It was Doyle's grudges causing trouble, which led to them all being hurt.
"I want to see Doyle," said Besse breaking the silence again.
There were some things that Susan wanted to say but she kept quiet instead. She thought maybe it would be good for Besse to visit with Oscar since he got hurt because of them. Maybe showing some human kindness might even help him wake up faster.
But for some reason, she just felt like Besse still resented Oscar somehow-if she cared about him, she would have asked her about Oscar's condition.
"Lyla, Can you please help me get a wheelchair?" Besse asked her orderly.
Besse knew walking on her own two feet would be impossible right now, but if she wanted to visit Doyle then using a wheelchair would be the best option available. Lyla quickly agreed before going off to retrieve one soon enough.
With help from the orderly, Besee sat down in the wheelchair.
She said, "Susan, I'm going to see Doyle. It's not early anymore, and you're pregnant. You and Manuel should go back first."
"We'll go with you," Susan directly refused. "You don't know anyone else in Northfield, let me accompany you more." Besse seemed unable to refuse. Sometimes, she wasn't as independent as she thought. So she nodded silently.
The orderly wheeled Besse out of the ward. Manuel and Susan followed them together. Manuel looked at Susan when they came. The two of them had discussed letting Besse go see Oscar before coming here. But Susan just couldn't say it out loud. She always felt like it would be difficult for Besse if they said that.
With a heavy heart, Susan followed Besse to the outside of Doyle's intensive care unit. Doyle wasn't sleeping at this moment either. He smiled slightly when he saw Besse appear through the transparent glass window despite all kinds of tubes inserted into his body right now; he still managed to smile about it all though. Besse's heart hurt a little bit.
Susan looked at Doyle's smile towards Besse and couldn't help feeling even more unsure about letting her meet Oscar. It felt like they would destroy their relationship if they did so. Besse asked the medical staff to help her put on an anti-bacterial suit, and she got into Doyle's ICU room.
Susan watched as Besse cared for Doyle and could feel the love between them. She felt that now wasn't the time for Besse to make decisions against what was truly in her heart. "Manuel, forget it," she said finally. "Besse can't possibly fall in love with Oscar again. What's the point of going to see him now?!"
Manuel also looked silently on. Beforehand he had always thought that it was the amnesia that stopped the two of them from being together again, but now he thought, perhaps, it was just because Oscar had missed her.
