Since She Met Lucian novel Chapter 141

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.
