Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 719 She Will Feel Guilty Forever

When William left, he coincidentally bumped into Jodie, who was delivering lunch to Emelic.

Jodie's eyes widened in shock as she saw William coming out of Emelie's room. She rushed inside in fear that Emelie might have been harmed.

"Ma'am!" she shouted.

However, Emelie merely stood expressionless in front of her dressing table. She took out some cotton pads from her makeup kit and wiped her lips with a makeup remover. Her eyes were as cold as ice.

Jodie instinctively looked at the bed. It showed only the usual signs of having been slept in. Emelie's hair and clothes were also not disheveled, indicating that nothing particularly alarming had happened.

Jodie breathed a sigh of relief. "Ma'am, what did William come for?"

Emelie tossed the used wipes into the trash bin. She suppressed her emotions and glanced at the breakfast Jodie was holding.

"Just put it down. I'll eat a little. I need to go see Mr. Swanson soon," she said.

Jodie noticed that Emelie didn't want to further the topic, Jodie simply replied, "Understood."

When Emelie arrived at the hospital, only Samuel and two nurses were in the ward.

Samuel had likely just had lunch. He was propped up at the head of the bed and looking a bit better than the previous day. Still, his lips were pale from the blood loss.

When he saw Emelie, Samuel managed a slight smile.

Emelie returned it with a polite smile. "Do you still feel pain today?"
