Chapter 708 Her Chance
“I couldn’t get through to him. At this time of the year, he’s deep inside the forest to find the herbs he needs. He doesn’t get much reception there, so we can rarely get to him. If he needs something, he’ll call us. Otherwise, I think we’ll only be able to contact him three months later.”
James’ words had shattered Amelia’s hopes.
She looked dejected.
Right then, Oscar put his arm around her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve already contacted the top neurosurgeons from abroad, and they should be here soon.”
Amelia merely leaned on his shoulder and kept mum. What did I do to deserve this? Ever since I was involved in the car accident when I was pregnant with Tony, it seems that I’m drawn to the hospitals for some inexplicable reason. Everyone around me has fallen sick with minor and major illnesses. At this point, I feel like there’s a better chance of someone I know getting admitted to the hospital than me winning the lottery. Wait. Do I have to spend the rest of my life in a hospital?
Evidently, she was utterly devastated.
James stayed in Saspiuburg for a few days before he flew back to Tayhaven. Back in Tayhaven, he had a major surgery to carry out, so he couldn’t stay in Saspiuburg for long.
Amelia and Oscar both sent James to the airport. When they were on their way back, Oscar noticed how tired Amelia looked. Not only did she have dark eye circles, but she had also lost a lot of weight. Oscar’s heart broke when he saw the state she was in.

Oscar frowned and said, “Amelia, I’ll send you back to the hotel for a rest, okay? If you carry on like this, I’ll be heartbroken.”
Amelia shook her head. “Oscar, I’m fine. I just need a shuteye. With the condition Mom is in, I won’t be able to fall asleep even if I am to go back to the hotel.”
Oscar glanced at her through the rearview mirror and saw how conspicuous her dark eye circles were because of her fair skin. Although his heart was aching, he knew he couldn’t convince her, so he felt rather helpless.
When they arrived at the hospital, Oscar parked the car carefully and went to the backseat of the car. After that, he gently wrapped his arms around Amelia and adjusted the seat so that she could sleep better.
After some time, Amelia woke up and saw Oscar’s face up close. She was shocked momentarily before she regained her composure and asked with a smile, “How long have I slept?”
“Almost two hours.”
Amelia pulled herself from his embrace and asked, “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“You were too tired, and you refused to go back to the hotel to rest. Hence, I had no choice but to let you sleep in the car. You’re too stubborn, you know? My heart aches for you. When will you not let me worry about you so much?” Oscar uttered helplessly and dotingly.
Amelia caressed his cheek and answered, “I know you’re worried about me. However, I’m fine, really. You, on the other hand, haven’t gotten much sleep because you’ve been keeping me company. Why don’t you go back to the hotel and rest? Be good, okay? Don’t say no to me.”
Oscar held her hand and looked at her intently. “Okay. I’ll go back and rest. If you need anything at the hospital, call me. Don’t shoulder everything by yourself.”

“Okay.” Amelia suddenly recalled something funny, and she said, “Oscar, I think I’ve given you some of my bad luck. You’ve been visiting hospitals all the time!”
“It doesn’t matter. All that matters is that you’re safe. I don’t give a hoot about other people’s sickness.”
Amelia was rendered speechless.
She then pinched his cheek, and they were both staring at each other tenderly.
The couple then immersed themselves in the moment of intimacy. After a while, Amelia uttered gently, “Oscar, go back and rest. I know you’re strong, but my heart aches for you too when I see how taxing this is for you.”
Oscar nodded in response.
After getting out of the car, Amelia watched Oscar drive away before going back into the hospital.
When she arrived outside the ward, she saw Amelia Hutton and Sean walking toward her.
“Amy, you’re back!” Sean said.
Amelia Hutton was curious as to why Oscar wasn’t there. “Amy, where’s Oscar?”
Amelia Winters answered unguardedly, “I told him to go back to the hotel and rest. He hasn’t slept much because he has been keeping me company in the hospital for the past few days.”
Amelia Hutton’s eyes lit up right away after she heard that, and her lips curled up into a smile. This is my chance. Once Oscar gets to see how attractive I am, he may fall for me.
She was very confident with her looks. Besides, she looked identical to Amelia Winters, so she was certain that Oscar would be interested in her. If I make the first move, I’m sure I’ll be able to charm him and make him mine.

Amelia Hutton returned to her senses and smiled. “I’m all right, Amy. You were heading in to see Mom, right? Go on.”
“Are you not going in?” Amelia Winters asked.
“I’m heading out to get some fresh air. It hurts me to see Mom suffer.”
“Oh, okay. Go on, then.”
After Amelia Winters went into the ward, Sean grabbed Amelia Hutton’s hand and warned, “Amelia, don’t do anything foolish. Otherwise, I won’t lend you a shoulder to cry on if you get humiliated. Sometimes, it’s better not to be too full of yourself.”
Amelia Hutton feigned ignorance and asked, “What are you talking about, Sean?”
Sean stared at her darkly and answered, “You know exactly what I’m talking about.”
Amelia Hutton scoffed haughtily and replied, “Sean, I have no idea what you’re on about. I’m going to leave now.”
“Amelia…”
Amelia Hutton ignored him and walked away without turning back.
Sean’s expression turned even grimmer as he watched her walking away. I hope she won’t do anything stupid. However, she’s stubborn, foolish, and too full of herself. Although she thinks she’s doing something smart, others will always think otherwise.
