Chapter 1103 Theodore's Apology to Hannah

Theodore turned to look at Oscar's back, then back at Hannah, whose face was completely

unrecognizable. He felt a sudden sense of confusion. Manuel, who had been focused on his daughter

until now, shifted his gaze and asked Theodore, "Why are you guys back?"

"We didn't leave yesterday," Theodore replied after coming to his senses.

"Hum?" Manuel frowned.

Hannah also looked at Theodore.

"Don't get me wrong." Theodore noticed their gaze and explained in a hurry. He was saying the words

to Hannah, who didn't know how to respond. She didn't overthink what he said anyway.

"We were already on the plane heading home when we found out that Northfield was experiencing

thunderstorms and the flight couldn't take off. We ended up spending the night on the plane hoping for

better weather conditions in the morning so we could leave. But when Oscar checked his phone this

morning he saw a message from Salem saying that Susan was going into labour and we decided to

come to see Manuel's child since we couldn't fly anyway."

Theodore spoke quickly in an attempt to explain their unexpected return.

Hannah didn't say anything but looked surprised to see Oscar again after thinking they wouldn't run into

each other again.

"I'll just go now," Theodore said awkwardly before leaving.

Manuel nodded in reply and he gave him a look. Theodore left in no time. After that, the room fell silent

as everyone processed what had just happened between Hannah and Oscar. It seemed like they

couldn't be lovers or friends or strangers or even enemies anymore, as if there was nothing left

between them except for awkwardness. Susan tried her best to lighten up the mood but even she felt

uncomfortable with the tension in the air.

"I gotta go too." Hannah began.

"Just now I asked you to leave, but you didn't. Now that Oscar is here, you're leaving. If only I had

known how useful Oscar was, I would have asked him to come earlier. If he had come last night, your

wedding night wouldn't have been ruined." Susan kept talking about Hannah's wedding night.

Hannah didn't know how to respond to her words and turned around towards Manuel instead. "When

Salem wakes up, tell him that I had something urgent and had to leave. He can call me if he misses me

and if I'm free, I'll come back." She said.

Manuel understood what Hannah meant-she could only visit when Oscar wasn't around. He nodded in

agreement.

Hannah took one last look at Salem before leaving the room.

"Hannah," Manuel called out after her as she walked out of the ward.

"Yes?" Hannah was surprised that he followed her outside.

"Did anything happen between you and Doyle last night? Did it affect you?" Manuel asked with

concern.

"Nope," Hannah smiled slightly. "Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself."

"It's because you're too independent that worries me so much," Manuel said sincerely. "If only you

weren't so independent..."

"Don't worry about me, I've been glad that I'm still alive." Hannah interrupted him before he could finish

his sentence.

Manuel wanted to say more but realized there was nothing else left for him to say since they were both

similar in character. They preferred bearing their burdens no matter how heavy they were.

"Okay then, when Salem wakes up, he'll give you a call," Manuel said finally.

"Thanks. See ya." Hannah smiled gratefully before turning around and walking away from him.

Manuel watched as she disappeared from view before calling Theodore on his phone telling them that

she'd left already, which meant it was safe for them both to return.

Manuel let out a sigh after hanging up the phone. He couldn't help but wonder how things between

Oscar and Hannah ended up like this.

Theodore answered the phone call from Manuel while standing on the hospital rooftop with Oscar,

smoking cigarettes together again, even though they'd smoked all through yesterday evening untilCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

today morning without stopping. Theodore asked Oscar to leave and take some rest in the hotel but he

refused. Oscar didn't say anything, nor did he look at his phone. He had just been smoking all the time

and day and night at the airport.

If it hadn't been for someone calling Oscar this morning informing them of Susan's condition during

childbirth, neither of them would've known anything until later on today or tomorrow perhaps.

To their surprise, they ran into Hannah there. At some point, Oscar became afraid of Hannah since he

fled away at the sight of her.

"I'll go to the ward first," Theodore said. Oscar replied with a nod.

Theodore left. He hurriedly left the rooftop, not going directly to the ward but instead rushing towards

the garage. He stood in front of a car that was about to leave and Hannah had to hit the brakes. She

was almost scared out of her wits by this sudden appearance until she recognized Theodore and

breathed a sigh of relief. Theodore was always reckless like this, and she had gotten used to it by now.

Seeing that Hannah had stopped her car, he walked straight up to her driver's side window and

knocked on it.

Hannah rolled down her window.

Theodore looked at Hannah's unfamiliar face and felt uncomfortable with it all. He asked hesitantly,

"Hannah?"

He asked for confirmation while also sounding incredulous. How did she manage to survive back then?

"It's me, Theodore," Hannah admitted since everyone already knew anyway; there was no point in

hiding anything anymore.

"How are you still alive?"

"I'm sorry I disappointed you." Joked Hannah lightly; but Theodore reacted strongly and said, "What are

you talking about? I've been praying for your survival every day! But now that you're alive... I can't

believe it! You're not lying or anything right?"

Hannah couldn't be bothered explaining herself any further, "Well, for you I'm just an insignificant

person anyway."

"What do you mean insignificant? You have no idea how important you are to us! You don't know how

much Oscar loves you..." Theodore saw that his words were affecting Hannah deeply so he quickly

changed topics. "But seriously though, I'm grateful that you're still alive. I always regret everything from

back then and feel guilty every time I thought about it. Sometimes even turning towards alcohol

because of my remorseful feelings towards you. I feel like you're the only one I wronged in this life."

He said what he meant. He had been in a terrible sense of blame by himself all these years.
