Chapter 792 A Talk With Lillian
The bunch of people were coming nearer and nearer. Lillian's face appeared clearer and clearer. Hannah had seen her on TV, but she looked younger in reality. She had a charisma of a noble princess when surrounded by the guards. She looked great and walked quite fast.
She went past Hannah but it seemed that she didn't recognize her. Hannah looked down, smiled and went along the corridor. She had lain in bed for days and didn't have any fresh air. She walked slowly into the garden, sat down on a bench and enjoyed the spring sunshine. This was what the weather was like in Kensbury City. It was warm in the sunlight, but it was chilly without it.
"It's breezing, Ms Cooper. Would you like to bundle up?" Max asked with a pink blanket in his hands.
Hannah shook her head. So Max brought her a glass of water without saying more. She didn't eat but had water from time to time. Hannah had a sunbath on the bench for a while. The weather suddenly went bad because the sun hid behind the clouds. Hannah sneezed in the breeze.
Max put the pink blanket on her shoulders instantly, "Ms Cooper, shall we go back to the ward? You're weak. Be careful not to catch a cold."
Hannah glanced at Max. Indeed, she was chilly. She acted against Oscar only because she wanted to fall out with him completely, not because she wanted to die. She nodded and stood up, and suddenly felt dizzy. Max held her up instantly. Hannah smiled at him. It broke Max's heart to see her playing touch and enduring it all.
They walked back towards the ward. It took five minutes for people to get back, but it took her fifteen minutes. She paused her steps when she saw Lillian in Oscar's ward. Theodore and Manuel weren't there. Maybe they were in her room or maybe they had left to give them some privacy. Hannah peeked into the room and saw Lillian cleaning the wound on his hand back and blowing on it softly during the process. Max saw it and sighed. When he tried to take Hannah to leave, he realized she had gone. She felt nothing for it.
The nurses came to give Hannah the IV soon after she got back to her ward. The guards moved forward and tried to pin her down.
"No need. I won't struggle." Said Hannah.
Why bothered to make herself suffer now that she knew she couldn't change anything? The guards looked at each other and didn't know what to do. Max told them to step back and they did as he said obediently.
The nurse was going to put her on a drip. Hannah didn't like the remaining needle, so they had to shove a needle under her skin every time they gave her the IV.
Hannah's hands' backs were full of needle holes, and she got bruises easily. As a result, her hands were unpleasant to look at. The nurse was looking attentively for the veins which could take the shot. Hannah hadn't had food for days, and her veins were too tiny to take any of it.
"Ms Cooper, can we use the remaining needle? I'm afraid we can't inject into the veins again." Asked the nurse.
But that was exactly what she wanted. Hannah shook her head, "No. The remaining needle makes me uncomfortable."
The nurse was in a dilemma. She had difficulty in injecting into her vein today, not to mention the days coming after. But she must listen to Hannah and use the one-time needle tubing. She had been looking for long and finally got one vein that could do. However, the vein was so tiny that it broke when she punctured the needle into it. The nurse was scared out and kept apologizing.
"It's OK." Said Hannah lightly.
It freaked her out not only because she had failed to put her on the drip but also because she didn't know which vein to go for later. She seized Hannah's hand and kept looking.
"Never mind. Try till it works." Said Hannah calmly.
But the nurse was shivering with fear.
Max couldn't bear to see it and said, "Go get another nurse to do the job!"
"Yes, sir." Said the nurse. She left quickly and returned with a few other nurses soon. Meanwhile, a girl stood at the door and watched Hannah quietly.
They took turns to try injecting into her veins and finally succeeded on the fourth time. By then, Hannah's hand was swollen. The nurse sighed with relief, settled the drip for Hannah and advised repeatedly before she left, "Ms Cooper, your veins are tiny and easy to break. Lie still in bed. Let us know if you don't feel well."
Hannah didn't want more people around. She had got Max and several guards, and it was more than enough. So, she sent the medical staff away.
"OK." Said Hannah.
Lillian came in after the nurses left. Max saw her and didn't know what to do.
"Hi, Max." Lillian broke the ice first.
"How do you do, Madam." Said Max respectfully.
"I wanna have a word with Hannah." She smiled and said.
Max glanced at Hannah and remembered that Oscar had told him to stay with her all time.
"It's OK, Max. Leave us." Said Hannah, "I've got something to tell Mrs Wells, too."
Max left reluctantly, leaving them and the guards in the ward.
Lillian saw the bruises on Hannah's hand back and looked back at her, "Jesus! I didn't recognize you in the corridor."
Hannah smiled lightly and said nothing. Sometimes, it was best to wait and see.
"Surprisingly, you look different. I've seen you on the news before and read the special reports on you. Back then, people all said Hannah Cooper was the prettiest woman in Northfield. I saw you on TV and also thought you were gorgeous. You are stunning! You are breathtaking! You are the perfect ten in my eyes! No wonder Oscar loves you so much."
