Chapter 886 Manuel Is Discharged From the Hospital
Oscar said with a straight face, "Keep Lillian's baby first."
"So, are you down to get rid of the Collins family?" asked Theodore, who had expected it.
It wasn't all about Hannah forcing Oscar to get back at the Collins family. Men were greedy. At first, the Collins family did want to coexist with Oscar peacefully and raise Cian's child together. Otherwise, they wouldn't have offered to make peace with Oscar in the civil war. Of course, it was also possible that the Collins family couldn't defeat Oscar and must meet him in the middle. Anyway, they cooperated based on a win-win solution.
But the Collins family had taken the move to kill Hannah, which meant they still wished to take over power from Oscar. If Oscar stayed married to Lillian, the power of the Collinses would be hugely reinforced. Besides, they got Cian's child and they could use it to manipulate Oscar.
The Collinses began to show their wild ambitions. In no way would Oscar sit back to watch them seizing power step by step and do nothing. Unfortunately, he would hurt Lillian. It mattered none to Oscar and Theodore what kind of person Lillian was. To them, she was nothing but the mother of Cian's child. Considering it, they wouldn't hurt her unless she crossed the line. Lillian hadn't done anything bad enough to make herself the target so far, but she would be the victim once Oscar fell out with the Collins family.
Oscar didn't want to go this far at first. He also hoped Cian's child could be born and grow up in a safe and healthy environment. Only in this way could he feel less guilty. But things turned out to go the worst way.
"I've got no choice." Said Oscar word by word.
Theodore nodded and listened. In a word, he was loyal to Oscar and obeyed all his orders. He would never turn against him.
Oscar visited Kensbury City almost every two weeks in the coming three months and stayed one or two days each time. He came to visit so frequently that he had kind of bonded with Salem, who would wave his arms and kick his legs happily every time they met.
It was just like the good old days. Everything seemed to go in the way that he had wished in the first place. Oscar was still married to Lillian, while Hannah just kept her nose clean and lived in another city. She waited for him to come back and got on quite well with him.
Three months later, Manuel was discharged from the hospital. Finally, the doctor announced that he could rest and recover himself at home. Susan had been there caring for him for the whole four months. Finally, they could go home.
Susan and Justine picked Manuel home together. Manuel was still moving with a wheelchair. The doctor said he was too weak to walk, and advised him to spend another month in the wheelchair. Then he could decide himself whether he would use it again or not.
The doctor had exclusively talked to Susan in the office before they left the hospital. Susan looked a little unhappy when she came out. She got in the car and pulled a long face.
"What did the doctor say?" asked Justine, wondering if there was anything wrong with Manuel.
Susan said nothing in response.
"Damn it, Susan! Say something. You're scaring me!" shouted Justine, who would be freaked out if anything else happened to her son.
"You're impossible! What have I done to scare you? It's none of your business!" said Susan angrily. She was upset and got pissed when Justine shouted at her.
"What are you talking about? Manuel is my son!" shouted Justine more loudly.
Manuel was sitting calmly beside them. He was used to seeing them fighting a lot.
"What can you do to help with our sex life?" said Susan sullenly.
Justine was choked. Right! She couldn't do anything to help with their sex life, but still asked anxiously, "Oh God! He can't get it up?"
Manuel couldn't feel more embarrassed, wondering if they could just show him some respect.
"Hell no!" answered Susan.
"Then why are you making a fuss of it!?" said Justine.
"The doctor told me to take it slow." Said Susan straightforwardly.
Justine was speechless.
"According to the doc, Manuel can't have sex now, and I must wait another month." Said Susan, "I thought he could do it after he left the hospital. Jesus! I've been excited the whole night. But the doctor's words have bummed me out. Can't I just feel sorry for myself?"
Justine didn't know what else to say.
"Lord! Why is it so hard!" Susan held her chin and said in sorrow.
Manuel was red in the face, wondering if Susan could be more big-mouthed.
The car arrived at Phillips Manor. Justine had moved back, too. Susan believed she was wise to have tried everything to convince her to move back. As a result, she could naturally get Manuel to live in the same house as her. She couldn't help to admire herself for having looked far and aimed high. She was also thinking of picking her father home later. She would only need to get his machine kit back and hire two nursing workers. The whole family would be reunited then. And she might have a baby with Manuel soon. Oh, she would be the one who had it all! Susan was lost in the pleasure of her imagination. Manuel read her mind easily and knew what she was thinking in mind.
"Go back to your room. I wanna take a nap." Said Manuel. By then, he had lain down on the bed.
"This is my room." Said Susan.
Manuel frowned.
"We lived in the same room in the hospital, didn't we?" Susan was annoyed by his stare and said unhappily.
"They didn't have spare rooms in the hospital."
"Same case here."
"Susan!"
"What the hell!" Susan swore. She climbed up to the bed and lay down beside him.
Manuel was mad. How could she be so one-track-minded? Did she think she was the only one who felt bad? He woke up in the middle of the night every day but she was sleeping like a log. "I'm going to work tomorrow." Said Manuel all at once.
Susan hid in the blanket and exploded after hearing that, "What? You can't go to work! You are still recovering!"
"It's better than staying at home and suffering from your one-track mind." He thought.
"I'm going with you." Susan saw him insisting and said without hesitation.
"Of course, you are!" said Manuel annoyingly, thinking she should have got back to work long ago. How could she leave her work behind for four months?
