Love You Enough to Leave You Chapter 185

Tiffany was the only one outside the ICU by the time they returned to the hospital. Olivia and Owen were nowhere to be found.

Oscar woke her up with a gentle nudge, and she sprung to her feet in a state of panic. “What is it? What happened? Did something happen to Amelia?”

James burst into laughter as he found her reaction adorable.

Tiffany pouted in annoyance when she realized what was going on. “What’s so funny, James?”

James gave her a thumbs up and replied in his native tongue, “You’re really cute, you know that?”

“Sorry, but I don’t understand your language. Please speak Chanaean!” Tiffany snapped back at him.

“Ooh, a feisty one! That’s exactly how I like my women! What do you think of dating a foreigner?” James replied with a chuckle.

Tiffany rolled her eyes at him in response.

Oscar jabbed at him with his finger and motioned at him to behave himself before asking, “Why are you the only one out here, Tiffany? Where are my parents?”

“They seemed tired, so I told them to head back and get some rest. I’m young, so I can afford to stay up for a day or two!” Tiffany tried to play it off casually, unaware of how pale her face was.

“Girl, you don’t look so good. I think you’re the one who needs rest here!” James said.

Oscar took another glance at her before turning towards James. “Why don’t you send her home, James? I can take it from here.”

“Happy to oblige!” James made an exaggerated bowing motion at Tiffany as he continued, “Milady, will you grant me the honor of escorting you home as your knight in shining armor?”

Tiffany rolled her eyes at him before asking Oscar, “Are you sure you can handle things by yourself?”

Having witnessed the friendship between Tiffany and Amelia, Oscar’s attitude towards her had softened up significantly.

“Yeah, I’m sure. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Amelia.”

Tiffany didn’t bother to argue any further as she was really tired, especially after going two days without much sleep and having donated a lot of blood.

“All right, I’ll head back, then. Call me if Amelia wakes up, okay? Oh, and do visit your baby if you’ve got the time!” Tiffany reminded him before leaving with James.

“Do you have a Chanaean driver’s license?” she asked James the moment they got into his car.

James shook his head honestly. “Nope.”

Tiffany rolled her eyes at him. “I think I’d better get off, then. Don’t want to end up being arrested in the middle of the night.”

James was a little taken aback as it was his first time being embarrassed by a woman.

“Um, Tiffany… Sorry, is it okay if I address you as Tiffany? If memory serves, I was the one who rescued you and your best friend, and this is how you repay my kindness?”

Tiffany leaned against the seat casually as she said, “Sorry, but I don’t really like foreigners, so I can’t really repay your kindness here.”

James shrugged in confusion. “Why?”

“It’s because of the difference in our beliefs. You foreigners are too open-minded, whereas I’m a very conservative Chanaean girl. I doubt we’d even click at all!” Tiffany replied.

“I think you have a huge misconception towards foreigners. It’s true that we may be a bit more open-minded, but we’re also very gentlemanly and will never force anything on anyone. Besides, I think we’re fated to have met each other.”

Holy sh*t, he’s almost at the level of a native speaker! Tiffany couldn’t help but find herself impressed at how fluent he was in Chanaean.

“How long have you been studying Chanaean, James? You seem to be a natural at it!”

James shot her a smug look. “What’s the matter? Have you fallen for me?”

“Pfft… Only immature girls would fall for someone like you!”

Tiffany couldn’t help but burst out in laughter when she imagined Oscar being all innocent and pure.

“I’m a little tired… Wake me up when we get there, okay?” she mumbled as she closed her eyes to take a nap.

“I’m a foreigner, remember? I don’t know the way to your house!” James said with a smile.

Tiffany smacked herself on the forehead. “Oh, right… Your Chanaean is so fluent that I forgot you weren’t local…”

Just like that, the two of them had a pleasant chat on the drive to her place, and whatever awkward tension between them seemed to have disappeared completely.

Meanwhile, Oscar went back into the ICU after obtaining permission from the nurses and fell asleep right next to Amelia.

By the time he woke up, he noticed Amelia’s finger twitching a little. Thinking it was just his imagination, he rubbed his eyes and took a closer look at her hand, only to realize that it was indeed moving. It felt so surreal that Oscar stared at it for over a minute before thinking of calling for the doctors.

After conducting a brief examination, the Dr. Kane smiled brightly at him as he said, “Mr. Clinton, your wife’s condition is slowly returning to normal, and we can have her transferred to the regular ward shortly after. It truly is a miracle that she’s able to regain consciousness so quickly!”

What Oscar felt at the time was something that words could not describe.

“Is Amelia really okay?” he asked while grabbing on to Dr. Kane’s arm.

“Yes, Mr. Clinton. Don’t worry, she’s recovering a lot better than we expected. In fact, it wouldn’t be an overstatement to say she’s the strongest woman I’ve ever seen. Despite the injuries she has sustained from the accident, she has given birth to a perfectly unharmed baby and managed to pull through herself. She truly is the greatest mother in existence.”

Oscar found himself tearing up as he thanked the doctors profusely.

The doctors simply smiled at him in response.

They were well aware of Amelia’s condition when they first saw her and had actually presumed that she wouldn’t make it. However, she had surprised them all by surviving her serious injuries and giving birth to a perfectly healthy baby, which led to them considering her case a miracle. It wasn’t exactly common for people to survive that many fractures and ruptured organs, after all.

Although unconfirmed, it was also possible that her strong will to survive had something to do with it.

As such, the doctors at the scene couldn’t help but let out a cheer in response to her amazing feat.
