Chapter 870 “Would you ept 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 ept 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 exined, "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 identally witnessing their kiss, instead of a hint of jealousy.
Her exnation surprised Theodore. He doubted. Really? Could Hannah allow Oscar to touch her? Did
she change her mind?
"So I felt a bit embarrassed," Lillian exined 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 find 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
extreme, for example, she could not ept 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." Theodoreforted, "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 weekter, 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 aa. 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?"
Manuely still without a move.
Susan waited with mounting despair. ording 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.
Herint 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 sessfully 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 be 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 mncholy, "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 ept my gratitude through sex?"
