Chapter 341 Sick

After Amelia was wheeled into her ward, Tiffany carried Tony and tagged along, whereas Kurt headed downstairs to pay the medical bills.

When Tiffany saw Amelia’s limp figure on the bed, she felt her heart throb in pain. Yet, Tiffany felt slightly happy too. Looking on the bright side, the blood clots in her brain wouldn’t have dispersed so easily if Amelia hadn’t sustained this injury. Fortunately, this incident had a silver lining.

As Tiffany took a seat at the edge of the bed with Tony in her arms, Rory stepped forward and said, “Tiffany, let me carry Tony. It’s late, so why don’t you head home? You can leave the rest under my care. I’ve received my salary, so I won’t feel at ease if you still end up taking care of Amelia.”

Tiffany glanced at Amelia before she asked, “What time is it?”

Rory fished her phone out to check the time. “It’s already two in the morning.”

Tiffany placed Tony in Rory’s embrace, then instructed, “You should return home with Tony and take a good rest. Tomorrow, please wake up earlier and bring some soup for Amelia.”

“Tiffany, you should go in my stead. I can take care of Amelia alone,” Rory insisted.

Before Tiffany could reply, Kurt entered the ward. Tiffany turned to look at him and said, “Kurt, why don’t you and Rory go home? You can come back here tomorrow. I’ll look after Amelia tonight.”

Kurt pondered over her words for a brief moment before he replied, “Will you be able to handle it alone? I think it’d be better if the two of you return home. Let me stay here instead. Besides, I’m strong enough to endure a night without sleeping.”

 

Tiffany thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.

She took Tony into her arms again and said to Kurt, “Okay, we’ll be taking our leave. If anything happens to Amelia, make sure to give me a call. I’ll bring breakfast in the morning.”

Kurt nodded.

After Tiffany and Rory left, Kurt took a seat by Amelia’s bed. Earlier, he had visited the doctor in charge for an explanation about her condition. The doctor had informed him that Amelia’s brain surgery had only lasted around four to five hours, meaning that it had ended rather quickly. Furthermore, she showed visible signs of improvement after the surgery. As long as there were no adverse side effects, Amelia could be discharged after two or three weeks. However, they could only check up on her eyesight after she regained consciousness.
