Chapter 723 The Feud (28) The Woman Who Waited
Oscar and Manuel buried Cian together. The two of them sat on the ground, silently staring at the grave made of dirt mounds.
The entire island was silent as if every sound had vanished into thin air. Until Oscar's phone rang. The sudden ringing seemed to startle the birds, which flew away from the trees.
Oscar lowered his head, picked up his phone, and saw the caller ID "Theodore" flashing on the screen. He answered in a low, hoarse voice, "Theodore."
"I took Hannah to the hospital. When are you coming back?"
Theodore urged Oscar to leave there. He was afraid that Oscar would be consumed by the pain of losing his loved brother and unable to break free.
Oscar's throat moved slightly. He glanced once again at Cian's grave and replied calmly, "Soon."
"Come back soon. She's not looking good. Due to severe bleeding and the impact of the explosion, it is very likely that the baby may not be able to be kept." Theodore had to tell Oscar about Hannah's condition. On the one hand, the situation was bad, and on the other hand, he wanted to divert Oscar's attention. He knew too well about Oscar's feelings for his brother. For a long time, Cian was the biggest motivation in Oscar's life. But now with Cian's death, he couldn't image how heavy the hit that Oscar would feel.
"Hmm," Oscar responded.
"Oscar, Hannah has suffered a lot. She needs someone to accompany her now." Theodore said seriously. Actually, when he said this, he wasn't taking Oscar's standpoint, but Hannah's. He felt that Hannah needed Oscar's company.
"Hmm," Oscar responded again.
Theodore hung up the phone and turned to look at Hannah lying on the hospital bed. She looked pale and weak, with many injuries on her body. The doctors said there was no immediate danger to her life, but if she insisted on keeping the baby, there was a high chance that both mother and child would not survive. Theodore didn't know how to advise her. He felt that only Oscar could help her to make a decision in that situation. He put down his phone, sat next to the bed, and said, "Oscar should be here soon."
Hannah was listening to Theodore with her eyes close. Then she opened her eyes, looked at him and said, "Cian has passed away, he is grieving. He needs more time."
"I don't blame him." She added.
Hannah understood the pain of losing loved ones. She also understood why after Cian's accident, Oscar didn't even come to see her once. If she had a similar situation, if her parents had died, she might not have been able to think of or care for others either. What she was upset about now was only the baby in her belly.
She had accepted her and her child's deaths in the villa. But now she was alive. She had survived, and she hoped that her baby could survive with her too. The doctor had just come to persuade her, saying that with her current condition, it was dangerous to keep carrying the baby. But she couldn't give up the child just because she herself would possibly die. She was not willing to give up the baby unless she had no other choice.
"Would you like something to eat?" Theodore asked, feeling somewhat at a loss for words. He wanted to encourage Hannah to be forgiving towards Oscar, but he knew it would come across as hypocritical. But if he didn't persuade Hannah to be magnanimous, he would feel sorry for Oscar. He simply stopped talking.
Hannah shook her head in response.
"In that case, you should rest for a while. The doctor said that your health is the most important thing, whether it's for yourself or for the baby. I'll stay here with you and there won't be any dangers anymore. When Oscar arrives, I'll wake you up." Theodore said, trying to comfort her.
Hannah nodded, feeling grateful for his kindness. In fact, not just Theodore, but also Manuel, Jimmy, and Cian-the people closest to Oscar who had all treated her well. She didn't blame Oscar for his late arriva or his inability to protect her. She knew that he had done everything in his power to keep her safe. Hannah closed her eyes, trying to get herself to sleep.
Oscar and Manuel eventually left the island. The villa was destroyed beyond recognition, and the three graves in the corners were left here alone.
Laird came to pick them up and had been waiting for them patiently without rushing them until he saw them arrive.
"Master Oscar." Laird bowed respectfully.
Oscar nodded slightly. The man who had been devastated by the loss of his loved ones had concealed all his emotions at the moment. If it were not for Manuel seeing it with his own eyes, he would have doubted that his cousin would have been sad. Oscar's voice was indifferent and emotionless as he spoke, "What about the remnants of the Balderston family?"
"All have been defeated or surrendered."
"What about the Collins family?"
"It's still being suppressed."
"Rowan is still fighting?" Oscar asked.
"Rowan is old and cunning, and he still has an army in his hands. The Collins family is still under his protection, but no longer a threat. More than half of the power has already fallen into our hands in the entire Northfield."
Oscar nodded. He already made a plan in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud. He took Manuel aboard the ship and ordered, "Let someone check Manuel's injuries."
"Yes."
The military doctor on the ship immediately stepped forward and began to examine Manuel's body. It was only when they started checking Manuel's body did they realized how badly he was hurt under his blood-soaked clothes. Enduring the pain, Manuel's face turned extremely pale.
"I suggest sending the ship directly to the hospital. The equipment and resources on the ship are poor and it is easy to get him infected." The doctor suggested.
Oscar nodded. At the same moment, he thought of Hannah and his heart felt a sudden pain. His throat moved but he still chose to remain silent.
The ship reached the other shore. Cars carried Oscar and Manuel to the hospital.
After Manuel decided to lie down, he couldn't get up again. During that whole trip, he was carried by others and he couldn't move at all.
The car stopped at the gate of the hospital. Manuel was taken directly to the emergency room by paramedics and Oscar went to Hannah's hospital room.
Oscar stood outside her ward, without opening the door. He suddenly didn't know how to face Hannah, a woman who was suffering and hurt so much because of him. He wanted to push the door several times but all he did was raise his hand and put it down until the door was suddenly opened from the inside. Theodore was visibly taken aback when he saw Oscar.
The next second, Theodore said panicked, "Hannah is bleeding again!"
