Chapter 217 Apology and Letting Go

The nurse had been changing Michael's bandages these past few days with her daughter tagging along, and they were all getting pretty chummy.

Seeing him say that, the nurse quickly chimed in. "Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith is right! It's not that I don't appreciate your kindness, but it's really not cool to take flowers from a patient. Thanks for the thought, but I'll have my daughter pick some from the garden. We've got plenty in the backyard! Alright, I'll come back later to go over the discharge instructions with Mr. Smith and change the bandages one last time! Mrs. Smith, have a good chat!"

With that, the nurse walked out.

The room got a bit tense.

Emily didn't know what to say to Michael, especially since yesterday's incident was still a bit awkward.

She just turned to the bedside table, grabbed the food she had prepared, and handed it to Michael. "I made you some oatmeal porridge. Since you're still recovering, it's better to eat something light. Also, when you get home, I'll let Ava prepare light meals for you."

For some reason, hearing Emily's gentle instructions made Michael feel a bit sad and reluctant.

After hesitating for a while, and after Emily fed him a spoonful of oatmeal porridge, he couldn't help but say, "I can do it myself. The doctor told me that although the wound is on your skull, your fingers were also slightly injured that day, probably because of us..."

Mentioning that day, Emily felt really embarrassed.

Thinking back to when she had pushed Michael away forcefully, and Michael had kept trying to press towards her, Emily felt suffocated and wanted to escape from Michael.

Emily interrupted, "Forget it, let's not talk about it. In any case, all of this is my fault. I should take good care of you."

Michael said, "But I'm getting discharged tomorrow. Didn't you just entrust me to Ava?"
