Chapter 483 Strange Woman

The room fell silent for a moment.

Emily gently closed the door and returned to the living room. Seeing Michael sprawled on the couch, she quickly prepared a warm towel and some hot water. She pulled up a chair and sat in front of him, carefully wiping his hands and feet.

In the kitchen, a pot of hangover soup was simmering, the scent of citrus wafting through the air, refreshing and pleasant.

But Emily couldn't appreciate any of it right now; she was consumed with guilt.

How could she not feel guilty?

She had always been soft-hearted, but last night she had stood her ground. She should have assessed the situation first.

Michael was dead drunk, and she had hurt him deeply. How could he not be upset?

She sighed softly and continued to tend to Michael, silently resolving to explain everything to him once he woke up. She hoped they could part ways amicably.

After all, they had a child to care for in the future, didn't they?

Dwelling on the past was pointless and harmful to both of them. They needed to focus on living their own lives well.

But Emily didn't realize that her thoughts were already subtly changing.

She had been the one most adamant about not wanting the child to recognize Michael as their father.

But now, everything had changed.

She was starting to relax her demands, even beginning to feel sympathy for Michael. This change surprised even herself.

Could it be that she was starting to care about Michael again?

What about the future?

Would he need to be involved in the child's upbringing too?

Emily's mind was a tangled mess, filled with countless thoughts.

She gently touched her belly, torn about the future, pondering how to face Michael when he woke up.

Just then, a phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.

She froze for a moment, then nearly gasped in shock.
