Chapter 870 "Would you Accept My Gratitude by Sex?"

When Lillian left Hannah's ward, she came across Theodore on her way back.

Theodore was out to look for her. He was responsible to stay with Lillian, but a call drew him out. When he came back, Lillian disappeared. He was scared by her because he could not allow any risk to Cian's child. So he was relieved when he saw Lillian standing safe before.

"Where have you been?" Theodore asked with a considerable edge to his voice.

"I came to Hannah for a talk," Lillian said genially with a slight grievance.

"Why do you want a talk with her? She must be in fury at the moment. Don't worry. Oscar will handle it. You'd better not involve in it." Theodore said coldly.

"I just want to ask for her forgiveness, and I won't set a hand in it. My brother must pay for what he did." Lillian said with a sorrowful voice, "Whenever I think about Manuel and Hannah's baby still lying in ICU, I am tortured by guilt and pity. So I just came to apologize from the bottom of my heart. But to my surprise..."

"Surprise?" Theodore frowned.

Did Hannah send her away again?

Theodore could understand Hannah, but he still failed to accept her ruthlessness toward Cian's blood.

"You don't need to go far," Lillian added. She could read Theodore's mind from his expression. And at this moment, she had to turn herself into a victim, a nice and thoughtful victim who was always considering others. So she explained, "Hannah did not badmouth me."

"So?" Theodore was confused. If Hannah did not wrong Lillian, why Lillian seemed awkward to tell?

"I came and saw Hannah and Oscar kissing," Lillian said with shyness. She looked so natural as if she was just embarrassed by accidentally witnessing their kiss, instead of a hint of jealousy.

Her explanation surprised Theodore. He doubted. Really? Could Hannah allow Oscar to touch her? Did she change her mind?

"So I felt a bit embarrassed," Lillian explained with a lower voice.

There was nothing more than embarrassment from Lillian's expression, which impressed Theodore. From his point of view, it was barely to replace a woman that could resist Oscar's charm, such an outstanding and handsome guy. That was why he worried that Lillian would turn out to be one of those common women at the beginning when she married Oscar. Once she fell in love, she might easily go extreme, for example, she could not accept Hannah. But fortunately, at least, she didn't seem to get interested in Oscar.

Theodore added, "They were once a loving couple, and they will resume being after their misunderstanding is cleared up."

"Luckily I am not the one between them." She said, relieved, "I am guilty of their divorce. If my appearance impact on their love, I won't be relieved of my guilt."

"Don't go too far. There are so many things out of your control." Theodore comforted, "Let's go. I send you back to the ward. The doctor said you'd better rest in bed for these days, for the sake of your baby." "Thanks, Theodore. You're so nice." Lillian said smiling at him.

Her sweetness stunned Theodore who was a bit embarrassed, for this was the first time someone said he was nice.

A week later, Hannah recovered but she still stayed at the hospital for her baby.

After a week of efforts by the medical staff, her baby was out of danger but still badly weak. It would be risky to free him into the environment outside. So he had to stay in the incubator for one more week. After that, if he was in good condition, he could be put out of the incubator and even checked out from the hospital.

Manuel became stable too but was still in a coma. But the doctor denied this as a sign of vegetable because Manuel had a slight response whenever the doctor called him. He was just too weak to move or keep awake for long. That was why he seemed asleep always.

Susan sat beside him, staring at his face with piles of injuries, and asked in sadness, "Manuel, are you still alive? If so, could you please just move your thumb?"

Manuel lay still without a move.

Susan waited with mounting despair. According to the doctor, he now was out of danger and could respond to them. Why did he keep motionless for her calling? Did the doctor deceive her? Susan could not help and stood up to call the doctor. But suddenly, she felt her hand dragged, which was so slight that she nearly thought it was an illusion.

She gazed at the hand, unbelievable. After just a week in the hospital, the man got so skinny.

"Manuel, can you hear me?"

Then she saw the man's bony jaw make a tiny nod.

Suddenly Susan was overwhelmed with wild joy, with tears welling in her eyes. She could not help but yell, "Thanks, Buddha, God, Father, everyone in heaven..."

Her yelling stuck into his ears. He wondered if there was something that could mute her. Didn't she know the patient needed quiet?

"If you are alive, why didn't you respond to me?" Susan turned to moan. She was so desperate that once she felt she was not herself any more.

Her complaint suffocated Manuel's little desire to respond to her. Her first question sounded more like a curse other than concern.

Manuel kept still in silence, while she stopped her moaning. Then she approached him and said in his ear, "Manuel, Hannah has successfully delivered her baby, and that is a..." Susan halted for she forgot to ask if that was a boy or girl. And no one told her either.

But it didn't matter.

She went on, "The doctor said, the baby has become out of danger. If everything goes right, the baby can leave the hospital after a week. Don't worry. Either Hannah or her baby stays safe and sound."

Finally, Manuel was satisfied with what he heard. He kept still on the bed, wordless and motionless. Watching his cheeks, Susan was upset by his weakness, and said in melancholy, "Thanks, Manuel." She said from the bottom of her heart. Without him, she must have lost her best friend and the baby as well.

How could she express her huge appreciation?

Then she said, "Will you accept my gratitude through sex?"
