The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 474 Strange Kiss

As Emily approached Michael's bedside, the true depth of her pain hit her like a wave.

Seeing Michael lying there, she felt a pang of sorrow, as if she could touch the loneliness and helplessness deep within him.

Why was this happening? She was supposed to hate him, to despise him.

After all, he had caused her endless pain and suffering.

For three years, Emily had hated Michael, loathed him, even wished he would disappear from her life. But why did fate have to torment them like this?

Emily's heart softened as she recalled Michael's repeated hospitalizations. She even felt that all of this was somehow connected to her.

Perhaps it was this complex emotion that kept Emily teetering on the edge of love and hate, unable to find clarity.

Just then, Michael's eyes fluttered open. He was awake, and he looked at Emily, repeatedly calling her name.

"Emy, Emy..."

It was at that moment that Emily realized Michael's drug hadn't worn off yet.

He still called her Emy, the way he did when they were a couple.

The air was thick with an passionate tension that she couldn't resist, drawing her deeper in.

"Michael, how are you feeling?" Emily asked softly, her eyes red, her cheeks flushing.

"I-I'm okay, Emily. I'm sorry. Emily, do you regret marrying me? Can you help me, help me..."

Michael didn't finish his sentence, but Emily's eyes widened, understanding what he left unsaid.

Michael wanted her to help dissipate the effects of the drug.

The cold hospital bed, the cold medical equipment-none of it could remove the aphrodisiac Sophia had given him. Only Emily, through their delicate emotional bond, could help.

Emily took a deep breath, holding back tears, and gently caressed Michael's face, asking softly. "How can I help you?"
