Chapter 868 Hannah's Change
Oscar shivered at that question. He looked at Hannah, only to meet her calm face without a touch of acrimony.
"Is there anything wrong?" Hannah asked in concern for Oscar did not answer.
She sounded a bit anxious.
After a while, Oscar said in control, "No big deal. She just needs to hospitalize for several days for observation."
"Great." Hannah was relieved, "I was shocked at that moment, seeing her falling. If there is anything wrong with her or her baby, how could I make it worth Cian's life?"
"Hannah..." Oscar couldn't bear to hear her say so, for he did not want to consign her to bearing what she shouldn't.
"I am grateful to hear that Cian still has blood on the earth. I think you must feel the same, right? I can even imagine how excited you were when you were informed that Lillian carried Cian's child. So I can forgive you for all you had done to me." Hannah said sincerely, "Actually you should have let me know earlier, instead of keeping it from me."
"What would you do if I told you before?" asked Oscar.
"Maybe I would still leave you to Lillian, but at least I can understand your choice, unwilling but must-have, for your brother. And I could live on without harbouring so much loathing for you." Said she, sincere other than perfunctory.
"I'm sorry." Apologized Oscar.
"Never mind. It's understandable. I know the reason that you hide this from me. You don't want me to involve in the duty to your family. And I guess, the Collins must threaten you at that moment, right?" Hannah assumed.
She was putting herself into his shoes.
Oscar nodded, "When I was informed Cian still had a child, I accepted all the terms from them, including a divorce with you, marrying Lillian, and concealing the truth that Lillian's baby is not mine. Moreover, I agreed with them to ensure the baby can have a complete family, and promise them the baby would become the only inheritor of the crown, for Cian."
Hannah understood completely Oscar's excitement and fear as well. And his fear forced him to compromise.
"How many months along with Lillian?" asked Hannah.
"Six months." Answered Oscar.
No wonder her belly looked so big. She had thought it should be 4-month for she was misled to believe that it was Oscar's child. Then four-month made sense if that was Cian's. They were just chatting about Cian and Lillian in harmony as if they were still the loving couple before.
Then a nurse came in and said, "I come to check if Ms Cooper has a milk supply."
Hannah felt a blow to her heart, for that reminded her of her baby's absence. And Oscar seemed to be frozen with hurt for a while. Without the baby, what could she do if she had a milk supply? But Hannah did not display her sorrow, and so did Oscar.
The nurse then approached Hannah and opened her clothes, while Oscar was not required to shun, so he just stayed still, watching. When Hannah promised to stay around with Oscar, she gave up most of those she had cared for.
The nurse touched her breast and pressed slightly, asking, "Does it hurt?"
She felt her breast was a bit tight so she nodded. She was a bit sick when she was awake this morning, but she did not know that was a sign of milk supply.
"OK. I will call for lactation service for you because your baby is not around you, you might easily suffer from mastitis that will hurt you more." The nurse added. "Thank you."
Then the nurse left and soon after she brought in another medical care staff, a specialist for lactation service.
Hannah lay on the bed, while Oscar stood by watching. This must be a painful process from Hannah's expression. But she just kept silent, other than moaning.
"Ms Cooper, your lactation might be sufficient for your baby. Through the massage I just did, your milking condition has improved. So when you feel your breast get tight next time, you can have the electric breast pump to get your milk out. If the doctor allows, you can have the nurse pass the milk to your baby. Anyway, mother's milk is the perfect food for a baby."
"Got it." Hannah nodded.
She reacted peacefully without a hint of sorrow for her baby in her heart, constraining her melancholy for her baby's absence.
After the nurse and her colleague went out, the room only had Oscar and Hannah. Hannah started to put her clothes on but soon she found he was helping her. She did not reject his help. Soon, the door was pushed open abruptly.
Oscar covered Aurora in a hurry behind him. Theodore stood in slight embarrassment, surprised by the intimacy between the couple. After all, their fierce conflict before seemed to break them up totally. He regained his composure and said to Oscar, "Lillian seems suffering from poor appetite. Do you need to check with her?"
"Turn to the doctor to see if she can check out from the hospital." Oscar refused directly.
"I have. But the doctor said she is quite emotional. And uterine contraction had shown up. If she leaves the hospital now, it must be quite risky. The baby is only 6 months, any danger should be fatal." "I see," Oscar said emotionless, but he showed no sign to leave.
"By the way, Max brings your lunch box to Lillian's ward. So just have your lunch first, for your poor stomach at least." Theodore did not give up his urge, though he had little hope for convincing Oscar. "Mhm." Replied Oscar.
Theodore just shrugged and left. The best ending for this couple, as he could figure out, was that Oscar died before Hannah. Then none of them needed to suffer more.
After Theodore disappeared, Hannah finally dressed up with Oscar's help.
"Just go to see Lillian. I feel tired now. I need some sleep." Said Hannah.
Oscar did not answer.
"At the start, Lillian did make me shame, and my perception of her was distorted. But now I know her relationship with Cian, and I got relieved. So you don't need to concern about me. I hope you can spend more time taking care of her. Cian's blood is precious to me too." Hannah added.
She sounded so sincere, while the man remained silent.
"Just go to her." Hannah urged, "And I do need some rest. Don't worry about me."
Oscar watched her. There was a light hint of a smile on her face. She was pushing him to another woman joyfully.
He swallowed down the bitterness in his heart and obeyed, "I will come back later."
"OK." Hannah nodded without a touch of sadness.
Oscar stood up and turned to the door. Watching his back, Hannah's smile dimmed away.
