Chapter 141 Might Lose The Baby

After the doctor checked up on Amelia, Lucian helped her return to her ward. When Amelia had laid
down, he quietly sat at her bedside. He was currently thinking about what the doctor had told him, and
was getting very worried.

Taking Amelia's hand, he put it to his lips and kissed her fingertips gently. There were a lot of different
feelings surging up in his heart.

The baby wasn't getting enough oxygen because of the amount of activity Amelia was doing. Because
of this, the doctor said that there was a chance that they might lose the baby. Lucian was starting to go
out of his mind when he learned this.

It was a good thing that Amelia had a strong will.

As per the doctor's orders, Amelia should rest as much as she could. If there was anything she
needed, she had to let someone else do it for her.

Shortly after the examination, Amelia had finally woken up completely.

Glancing at the ward with white walls around, Amelia eyes fixated on Lucian. "Is the baby...Is the baby
okay?" she asked weakly, putting her hand instinctively on her belly.

The last thing she remembered was the dull pain coming from her stomach, and the feeling of
something slowly leaving her body. And so, her first natural reaction when she woke up was to ask
about their unborn child.

Lucian pressed her hand against his cheek. "Don't worry. The baby's fine. Just get some rest," he
comforted.

Seeing Amelia anxious like this made his heart ache. Guilt washed over him as he felt like it was his
fault that Amelia was suffering this much.



"That's good... The baby's still here," Amelia muttered under her breath, a faint smile playing on her
lips.

"You should get some sleep. I'll just be right here beside you." There was so much love in Lucian's
voice when he spoke to her.

"What about you?" Amelia asked as she saw his tired eyes. "You should rest, too."

There were dark circles under Lucian's eyes which made Amelia's heart ache.

"I'm fine. I'm just so relieved that you're okay," he replied, still tightly holding onto her hand.

If anything happened to Amelia this time, he would have never been able to forgive himself.
Fortunately, she and the baby were fine. However, the bruises all over her body made him incredibly
uneasy and pained.

Later that afternoon, Courtney and Kent came to the hospital to visit Amelia.

"Kent and I can look over her in the meantime," Courtney told Lucian. "Get some rest first."

Kent lowered his head, fearing Lucian might snap back at them for being there.

"No, it's okay. I won't be able to get any sleep anyway if Amelia's out of my sight," replied Lucian,
looking over at Amelia with loving eyes.

With a sigh, Courtney walked over beside the bed and held Amelia's hand in hers. "You've always
looked so fragile and weak," Courtney said. "And yet you've survived so many bad things in your life.
You will get better Amelia! I know it!"

"She'll probably wake up again in a while. Maybe then you can try and lighten up her mood," Lucian
suggested. 'Hopefully Courtney won't be too straightforward and blurt out something that will make



Amelia worried,' he thought to himself.

"How about the baby? Is the baby okay?" Courtney asked nervously.

"The doctor said there's a possibility of miscarriage," Lucian explained with a frown. "Amelia needs to
stay in the hospital for at least a week so that they could observe her and the baby closely." It was
important that Amelia moved around as little as possible.

During this time, Lucian had already decided that he would never leave her side.

"What a vicious woman Shelly is! I will definitely teach her a lesson when Amelia gets better!" Courtney
sneered angrily.

"Calm down," Kent told Courtney. "Mr. Lucian just said that we should talk about positive things around
Amelia." "We're not at work right now, Kent," Lucian said.

"You can just call me Lucian." Although Kent was fairly surprised, he nodded in agreement.

Slowly, the tense expression on his face relaxed a bit. Up until now, Kent was thinking that if he hadn't
let Amelia borrow his car, she wouldn't have gotten hurt in the first place.

Luckily, Lucian didn't blame him.

Since Courtney and Kent were already there, Lucian stepped out of the ward for a while. Shortly after,
Amelia opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Courtney's worry-filled face.

"Courtney, relax. Give her some space," Kent said as he held Courtney back.

"Sorry I made you worry about me," Amelia weakly said with a smile.

"Don't say sorry. I'm just so grateful that you're still in one piece," Courtney stood up and turned around
to wipe off her tears.



When Courtney had last seen Amelia, she saw how Amelia was tied up with ropes. Bruises covered
her entire body. The sight of her dear friend almost made her pass out.

"What do you want to eat? Kent can cook it for you," Courtney said. "I'm not much of a chef myself. But
Kent is really good in the kitchen!"

One side of Amelia's face was still swollen and purple. It was fine with her if she wasn't allowed to
move -- twitching a finger or raising an eyebrow was already so painful.

Amelia looked around the ward, her eyes frantically searching.

"Lucian just went out to talk with the doctor. He'll be here soon," Courtney reassured her.

Hearing this, Amelia felt at ease. "What did Lucian do to Shelly? He hasn't caused trouble, has he?"

"Don't think about that," Courtney said, pressing her lips into a fine line. "I don't know what Lucian did
or will do to that woman, but once you recover, I'm going to tear her to pieces myself!"

'It looks like Shelly really just depended on the An Group's wealth and power to get what she wanted,'
Courtney thought. At this point, anyone could tell that the An Group had changed. It would be difficult
for Shelly to be more indiscreet about her ploys.

"Courtney, remember what Lucian just said earlier," Kent said in a low voice as he tugged at Courtney's
sleeve. "You've just woken up, Amelia," he continued. "There's no need to think about these things just
yet."

At that moment, the door opened.

It was Lucian, and he had with him a bowl of soup in his hand. When his eyes met with Amelia's, he
immediately walked up to her bedside with a smile. "Hey, I'm sorry I wasn't here when you woke up,"
he said tenderly. "Are you hungry? Lily made this chicken soup for you."



Although she wasn't in the mood to eat anything, hearing that it was Lily's soup that she liked so much
made her hungry.

"You're such a charming guy, Lucian," Courtney teased. "Amelia had her eyes instantly glued to you
since you've stepped in that door. I am honestly very jealous."

A happy smile bloomed on Lucian's face, and his heart was filled with warmth.

Seeing Lucian's smile made Amelia feel happy as well. Her lips twitched into a faint smile. But as soon
as she did, a sharp pain surged up her face, making her wince.

"Don't move. I'll help you eat." Lucian helped Amelia up and said softly.

"Kent, let's go back to prepare the dinner for Amelia. Looks like Lucian's gotten Amelia covered
already," Courtney said, nudging at Kent's side. It looked like Lucian and Amelia needed some time
alone together. Not wanting to ruin their moment, Courtney thought it was best that she and Kent went
on their way.

After they said their goodbyes and well wishes, the ward was quiet again.

Amelia was a little embarrassed at first that Lucian had to spoon-feed her like this. But after coaxing
her a bit, she let Lucian help her eat.

Maybe it was because of the soup, or perhaps because Lucian was there right beside her. Whatever
the reason, Amelia started feeling much better. Her bright eyes went intently fixated on his face the
entire time.

Lucian would even lightly blow on the spoon to make sure it wasn't too hot for her.



He took out his handkerchief and gently patted away some of the soup that trailed down the corner of
her mouth. No matter how gentle he was, Amelia was slightly wince in pain. Seeing her like this made
his heart ache so badly.

"Is there something wrong?" Amelia asked, sensing the sadness in Lucian's eyes.

Raising his eyebrows, Lucian shrugged and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Just finish your soup."

It looked like things were back to the way things were between them. However, everything that had
happened to lead them to this moment made Lucian very upset.

After Amelia finished her soup, Lucian stood up and grabbed a clean towel and dampened it with some
water. "Did the doctor really say I couldn't get out of bed for an entire week?" Amelia asked curiously.

Walking back over to her, Lucian gently wiped her face and hands. "Yes. Don't worry. I'm here to do
everything for you."

Hearing this, Amelia's face got hot. 'What if I need to take a bath or go to the bathroom?' she thought
worriedly.

"I can help you get to the bathroom, too," he immediately said, seeming to read Amelia's thoughts.

"W..what?" Already feeling embarrassed, Amelia felt even more self-conscious when Lucian started to
move her hospital gown away to wipe the rest of her body.

Amelia was so nervous that her heart was beating wildly in her chest. On the other hand, Lucian just
continued to wipe her body with calm look on his face. This reminded Amelia of a movie she watched
before. The heroine of the movie was sick and couldn't get up. The love interest of the heroine cooked
soup for her every day and took care of her. There was not a day that he left her side.

Watching what was happening in front of her, Amelia was deeply touched. Tears welled up in her eyes.



"Hey. Why are you crying?" Lucian noticed the tears from the corners of Amelia's eyes and asked
worriedly, "Did I hurt you?" There were bruises all over her body -- bruises which came from the kicks
Shelly had given her.

Amelia shook her head and answered in low voice, "No... I... just feel so happy you're here."

After everything that had happened, being here with Lucian suddenly made things better. Because of
this, she was even more reluctant to leave him.

"You little fool... Did you think I was joking around when I promised to take care of you?" Lucian quickly
wiped away the tears from her eyes and kissed her softly on her lips.

"Don't cry... I might start to cry as well. Plus, it's not good for the baby," he continued. These words
really hit on Amelia. With a sniff, she gave a slight nod.

"I'm sorry.... I'm really sorry. This is all my fault," Lucian apologized, his voice breaking. There was so
much love and regret in his heart at the moment. For one, he was thankful that Amelia was stable for
now. But he couldn't help but think that this wouldn't have happened to her in the first place if it weren't
for him.

Amelia couldn't help laughing, "Are you going to let it go if you are sorry?"

She thought that Lucian would say something to contradict her, but to her surprise he just stood up and
kissed her on her forehead.

This sudden action made her blush even more.

"Ahem!" A cough came from the door.

Straightening up, Lucian saw that Jonny was at the door, a wicked smile on his face. "You came at a
rather inappropriate time," Lucian told him.



Jonny pretended to cover his eyes with embarrassment. "I think I might need to wash my eyes with
bleach after seeing that," he exaggerated.
