Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Throbbing

Tiffany then drove Amelia to Provincial Hospital, for she happened to know a doctor there. After that, she used her connections to get Amelia a series of checkups from experts.

By the time the checks were done, two hours had already passed. Amelia sat very nervously in front of the doctor. When Tiffany noticed her state, she patted her back to soothe her then asked, “Dr. Zalman, how’s Amelia’s situation?”

Harold, the doctor, carefully read the examination report then said, “She had an accident before, didn’t she?”

Tiffany nodded.

He continued, “She’s recovering quite well, but she should still be careful, or there might be side effects. There are not many issues with her body, but we can only have the report for the brain tomorrow. Anyway, you have to be mentally prepared. The blood clot in her brain already began to move and could press on the optic nerve. We can only get a better picture when we see the report tomorrow; so, don’t be too nervous for now.”

Tiffany then glanced at Amelia nervously and swallowed. “Will the blood clot cause blindness?”

Harold looked at her solemnly and replied, “Truthfully, if her condition becomes severe, she may go blind. But medical technology’s very advanced now, so as long as we can find a suitable cornea, we can resolve the problem. In any case, don’t jump to conclusions so quickly. This is merely the worst-case scenario. When Ms. Winters gets better, the blood clot may also dissolve by itself. As I said, we’ll discuss this again when we have the report tomorrow.”

Amelia’s heart sank when she heard his words.

Meanwhile, Tiffany replied, “Thank you, Dr. Zalman. We’ll come again tomorrow for the report.”

He nodded. “Sure. I suggest you bring her previous report too. We can use it as a reference to better work out a treatment plan for her.”

“Okay, we’ll bring it over tomorrow.”

Once they left the hospital, Tiffany then patted Amelia and said, “Don’t be like this. The doctor already said that it’s the worst-case scenario. You’re so nice that I can guarantee the heavens won’t let you suffer so much that they weren’t even willing to take your life. You still have a lot of good luck. Don’t worry.”

Amelia shrugged. “I’m fine. Don’t worry. I’ve experienced many things, so I can handle this. Anyway, even if I become blind, I’ll be the most beautiful blind lady. I still have Tony, so I won’t do anything stupid.”

Tiffany’s heart ached even more when she heard that. She keeps putting on a fearless, strong front but doesn’t know that it makes others feel sorry for her.

Such a woman deserved all the good things in the world. Unfortunately, the heavens had decided to play jokes on her. Although she may have stayed alive, she might lose her sight instead.

The eyes were said to be the windows to the soul. Thus, without sight, a person’s world was doomed to be dark. After all, how could one’s world be lit up when the windows were closed.

Tiffany hugged her, then said, “No matter what happens, we’re all by your side, Amelia. Tony and I will always be your family. Medical technology’s very advanced now, so as long as we find a compatible cornea, it’ll be okay. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Amelia smiled. “I’m fine. Don’t worry. You can go back first if you have something on. I’ll take a cab and head back later.”

Tiffany looked at her. “I’ll send you home. Your sight’s not very good now, so don’t drive during this period of time. I’ll drive over to the Clintons’ to take you to the hospital tomorrow. I know you don’t want Oscar to find out about this, for the time being, so don’t worry; I won’t say anything to him before you agree.”

Amelia felt grateful to her. Tiffany was able to read her mind from a mere glance. Sometimes, she even knew her better than Oscar. If Tiffany were male, perhaps they would be soulmates, since they had a lot of chemistry. It was a pity they were both females, so they could only be best friends.

“Thank you, Tiff.”

“Let’s go. Stop saying such things. If you say thank you too much, I’ll feel very odd and distant from you.”

Thus, Amelia did not speak anymore.

Once she got in the car, Amelia was silent the rest of the ride back. She seemed to be thinking about something and was not interested in anything else.
