YM778.TV Chapter 195 - Are You Evicting Me?
When Lisa woke up from her sleep, the first thing she saw was the blinding rays from the hospital room\'s lighting. She could not see the shadows of objects around her clearly.
Lisa shifted her gaze to a figure sleeping on the chair next to her bed. The figure seemed to be grasping Lisa\'s left hand. The woman could feel heat flowing from the person\'s palm that was gripping Lisa\'s tiny palm.
Lisa moved her body a little. She got up from her bed slowly and wiped her eyes which felt heavy. The back of her head still hurt.
The incident yesterday was really unexpected. She fought Karina until she was temporarily blind and was referred to the hospital. Though she could not see clearly, she could hear Oscar\'s voice talking to Rangga when she was brought in the ER.
The big and strong hand still gripped Lisa\'s palm with gentle cares. Her thought then wandered for a moment, remembering the touch of the hand of the man sitting beside her bed.
That person\'s warmth was very familiar to Lisa. Even the cold aura that enveloped Lisa was very familiar to him.
She then touched the man\'s figure gently. She touched his curls, which felt silky smooth.
Almost instantly, she felt the man she touched move, holding Lisa\'s hand which had just stroked his hair. Lisa was frozen in her move and drew back a little from where she was sitting then shook off the man\'s hand.
"Lisa, are you awake?" Oscar asked softly in his deep, sensual voice.
Lisa moved her head then looked around her. It had been a few minutes since she woke up but her vision was still blurry.
"Oscar, why are you still here? Where is Rangga?" Lisa asked softly.
"I told Rangga to return to his office yesterday. Let me take care of you," Oscar replied as he straightened his sitting posture. The man then took Lisa\'s hand again and stroked her gently.
His warm touch spread into Lisa\'s body through the palms of her hands. It made Lisa feel comfortable and safe, as if Oscar had magical powers that bewitched her.
Lisa looked back at the ceiling of the room, squinting. She still couldn\'t believe her vision still hadn\'t recovered.
"Am I not healed yet?" Lisa asked softly. The woman turned to her side, looking at the blurry figure who was none other than Oscar.
"Why is it? Are you uncomfortable? Want me to get the doctor here?" Oscar asked as he took Lisa\'s tiny hand.
"No, I\'m fine. It\'s just… my throat is a little dry," Lisa replied, confused by her feelings.
Without saying much, Oscar got up from the chair and walked to the table by the bed. The man took an empty glass and filled it with water.
Oscar returned to bed and handed the glass of water to Lisa. He then softly said, "Want me to help you drink?"
Lisa reached for the glass that Oscar had brought to her. "No, thanks Oscar. I can do it myself."
The man let go of the glass that Lisa was holding and then pulled the blanket over half of her body. He returned to sit on the chair beside the bed, looking at Lisa with a regretful face.
"Luckily, you wake up soon, Lisa" Oscar said quietly. "I was very worried about you yesterday,"
Lisa cleared her throat. "Why are you waiting for me here?"
"I don\'t know, there is something in me that told me to accompany you," Oscar replied briefly.
"Don\'t lie to me," Lisa added flatly.
Oscar stared blankly at the woman who\'s once his wife. He didn\'t know how to express his innermost thoughts to Lisa. All he had in mind right now was being alone with Lisa without any interference.
"You better get plenty of rest, Lisa. don\'t think too much," Oscar said, changing the conversation.
"What did the doctor say yesterday? Will my vision return soon?" Lisa asked back.
"Don\'t worry Lisa. The doctor told me that your blindness is only temporary. The important thing is to get plenty of rest and take all the medicine prescribed by the doctor!" Oscar replied firmly.
"But I\'m afraid, what if I become permanently blind? What if I am permanently blind then I lose my job. If I lose my job, who can support my mother and sister!?" Lisa started to panic, her mind ran everywhere.
Lisa rubbed her palms anxiously. Her palms started to sweat and her heart was pounding thinking about her bleak future if she was truly permanently blind.
Oscar rubbed Lisa\'s shoulder gently. He tried to calm her down so she wouldn\'t panic too much. "Never mind, trust me. Your blindness will be healed soon. You will get your eyesight again!"
Oscar took the water glass that was on the bedside table and brought the glass closer to Lisa\'s lips. "Lisa, have another drink, so that you don\'t get dehydrated."
"Thank you," Lisa said, holding the glass. She sipped the water slowly then sighed.
Lisa cleared her throat and handed the glass back to Oscar. The man then helped her put the glass back on the table.
"Are you sure that my eyes will definitely return to normal?" Lisa asked again, she still couldn\'t believe what Oscar was saying. "What if you are lying?"
"For God\'s sake, Lisa! I\'ve even found you a reliable doctor who will treat you until your vision recovers. I have taken care of all the hospitalization and surgery costs! You don\'t have to worry! Trust me," Oscar explained, trying to convince her.
He even planned that if there was a high probability that Lisa would lose her sight permanently, he would do anything to restore Lisa\'s vision though it sounded very unlikely.
Even though Lisa was no longer his wife, Oscar still felt a strong bond with her. Seeing Lisa always ended up miserable made him pity her even more.
In fact, Oscar couldn\'t help but feel anxious in his heart.
Lisa looked at the handsome man\'s face for a long time, thinking about something. The man\'s face didn\'t change one bit. His blue eyes were clear as glass. His golden hair glittered under the sun. What a very handsome man!
"Fine, then. You can go. I can take care of myself. Thanks for your company Oscar," Lisa said firmly.
Hearing Lisa\'s sentence just now stunned Oscar. "Lisa, don\'t be like that. I\'m here willing to accompany you! Are you kicking me out on purpose?"
"No, Oscar. I didn\'t kick you out! I just want to be independent and not depend on other people including yourself," Lisa replied. Her voice began to rise.
"Lisa, you still need a company for now. Please allow me to accompany you until your vision is restored," Oscar grasped Lisa\'s trembling hand. He kissed the back of her hand gently then brought his face closer to her.
"I don\'t want you to get hurt again, Lisa. I\'m sorry that always failed to protect you," he said softly in Lisa\'s ear.
Oscar\'s last sentence left Lisa speechless. The woman pursed her lips then took a deep breath.
"You really are a strange man, Oscar. You came several times and intentionally hurt me, but now you act as if all of your bad treatment towards me in the past was trivial?" Lisa stared at Oscar\'s imperceptible face with knitted brows.
"I\'m sure we all have made mistakes and there\'s always a second chance for us," Oscar said softly.
"It\'s not that easy to forgive you, Oscar. You know that," Lisa replied dryly. "You should just go back to the office. Sorry for bothering you until you neglected the employees in your office...."
