Chapter 733
Perhaps, deep inside, he secretly hoped that if Rosalie were to uncover the truth one day, someone would be there to offer him a helping hand.
Meanwhile, Amelia’s postoperative condition was not bad. After she spent two days in the intensive care unit ward, she was moved to a standard ward.
However, even if the transplantation was successful, it was still necessary for her to undergo regular check-ups.
Amelia often felt complicated when she saw the surgical scar on her upper abdomen while the nurse changed her dressing.
No matter how reluctant she was, the liver in her body was eventually replaced by Warren’s!
But she could live on. She could live on, not only to protect her mother from the pain of seeing her die but also to watch Aiden grow up.
During these days, Aiden and Matilda anxiously stayed by Amelia’s side in the hospital, while Rosalie would occasionally drop by to visit her.
“I deeply apologize for causing you to worry about me while you are pregnant,” Amelia said guiltily. Rosalie was supposed to rest, but she frequently went to the hospital instead.
“Amelia, what are you talking about? If I have difficulties one day, I believe you’ll do your best to help me.” Rosalie said.
At this moment, Aiden was a little sleepy. Therefore, Matilda took Aiden to the guest room in the VIP ward to rest. Now, only Rosalie and Amelia are left in the
room.
Rosalie hesitated for a moment and looked at Amelia. “Jon told me that Warren insisted on walking to the door of your ward as soon as he could get out of bed these two days, but… he didn’t come in.”
Amelia said lightly, “We will be like this forever. In the future, he will return to the York family, and I will be in Strico, so we will have nothing to do with each other. If he still cares for Aiden as a father, he should just treat Aiden well.”
“Can’t you two reconcile?” Rosalie asked.
Amelia responded by asking, “Would you love someone who has hurt you in the past?”
Rosalie remained silent.
“I used to love him so much that I thought I could sacrifice myself for him, but feelings will change. Even once, I thought my feelings for him would not change no matter what happened, but it turned out that they would still change and could become nothing,” Amelia calmly stated. Her previous love and hatred seem to have completely dissipated.
1/3
She used to have strong feelings for Warren, both love and hatred. But now, those feelings meant nothing to her.
“I can’t accept someone who has hurt me before, Rosalie. I won’t be able to accept it, no matter how much the other party regrets or does more things for me in the future. Every time I look at that face, it brings back painful memories. I don’t love him anymore. I also don’t hate him, but I can’t forget it,” she explained faintly. Her pains were like a permanent mark on her body and soul, impossible to remove or forget.
Rosalie sighed. “I understand. It’s hard for someone to accept someone who has hurt them again. After all, the damage cannot be simply dismissed by regret afterward as if it never happened.”
“By the way, where is Lillian? How’s she doing? I’ve been really busy lately, so I didn’t have time to visit her at the hospital,” Amelia asked.
As they spoke about her friend, Rosalie smiled and replied, “Lillian is much better now. She’s getting better every day. The doctor said she can leave the hospital in 10 to 14 days if there is no complication.”
Although Rosalie still felt a hint of sadness in her heart, she couldn’t help but feel immensely proud to have a remarkable friend like Lillian, who had managed to uplift her spirits. She knew that Lillian would not be easily defeated!
Even if she broke up with Callum, Lillian didn’t give up on herself. Instead, she decided to work together for her treatment and get better. Lillian even joked to her, “It’s just a breakup. It’s not a big deal at all! Nowadays, it is rare to find someone who has never gone through a breakup before tying the knot with their beloved partner. I’m just going with the trend. After my discharge from the hospital, perhaps my very own Prince Charming will come to me!”
Lillian’s optimism and cheerfulness made Rosalie believe she would be happy in the future!
Amelia was relieved. “That’s good. Rosalie, you and Lillian, don’t be like me.”
She believed she would never experience love again.
While talking, they didn’t realize that the ward door was not securely closed. Figures were seen moving outside through the door gap.
After leaving the hospital, Rosalie and Jonathan returned to the Youngblood Residence. As Rosalie was about to go upstairs, Jonathan suddenly pulled her into his arms.
“What’s wrong?” She couldn’t help but ask. This unexpected hug seemed to be a little strange.
On the way back today, he was quiet. She noticed how he would stare at her, completely lost in his thoughts multiple times. Therefore, she asked him if something was wrong, but he reassured her everything was fine.
“I want to hug you all of a sudden,” Jonathan murmured. He remembered the
2/3
incident from earlier when he accompanied Warren to Amelia’s ward. He overheard her conversation with Amelia through the door gap.
Warren was about to collapse when Amelia said she couldn’t forgive the person who hurt her. He had to cover his mouth with his fist to hide the sound of his
sobs.
At that time, crying seemed like a luxury.
“Didn’t you hug me every day? Haven’t you had enough of hugging? Rosalie laughed.
“Not enough.” It might never be enough for him.
Rosalie gazed fondly at the hands embracing her baby bump. They were his hands, clean and beautiful. They appeared spotless.
“Jon, I’m afraid it’s impossible to bring Amelia and Warren back together,” Rosalie suddenly spoke.
Jonathan’s body stiffened slightly.
“I talked to Amelia for a while today. She said she wouldn’t forgive someone who hurt her in the past, even if she loved that person deeply. People’s feelings will change. Time and harm will eventually destroy the deep love they once had for each other,” Rosalie murmured. Today’s conversation with Amelia evoked the same emotion within her.
Like her, she had loved Zachary in the past. She might not have loved him enough to give up everything for him, but he was still her first love. But later, after being hurt by Zachary, the love was gone and vanished! Jonathan’s breathing seemed to become slightly rapid. He heard Rosalie say, “I agree with Amelia. After all, I wouldn’t have accepted someone who hurt me either.”
