Chapter 225 The Best PersonĀ
Sammel stood outside the door and was going to push it open. However, the muted voices from the poorly soundproofed ward made his hand pause midāairĀ
He cast his gaze downward. Despite his reflective lenses masking his emotions, a tinge of disappointment emanated from him.Ā
He thought the seeds he had nurtured were sprouting under his care, but it seemed it was all a figment of his imagination. The seeds had never germinatedĀ
After a moment, he turned and lett without a word.Ā
William snorted. Emelle, having finished cleaning up, stood up straight away. āMr. Middleton, you donāt need to act like you know meĀ
āI havenāt spoken to Mr. Swanson because I donāt think itās the right time yet. When the time comes, I wonāt need to speak up. Heāll offer his help voluntarily.āĀ
William frowned slightly. āIs he really that good in your eyes?āāĀ
āHeās the best person Iāve ever met. He never asks for anything in return from me, and he helps me willinglyā Emelie was frank.Ā
This time, William scoffed directly, thinking she was too naive.Ā
Emelie couldnāt be bothered to argue with him, so she tossed a clean hospital gown at him and left the ward to check on Melanie.Ā
She had been in the hospital for two days, and Emelie hadnāt visited her yet.Ā
To her surprise, she found Samuel standing by Melanie. āMr. Swanson.āĀ
Hearing that, Samuel turned around. His expression was briefly complex as he glanced at her, but it quickly faded. The usual gentleness returned to his eyes behind his glasses.Ā
āWhat brings you here, Eme?ā Samuel explained naturally, āI just came back from Blossom Clove to bring Melanie her meal. I was going to bring it to you next. Are you hungry?āĀ
Melanie looked at Samuel strangely. He came to her, put down the food, and then kitĀ
jest about to ask why he hadnāt delivered itĀ
Melanie knew he went to Emelie, but he returned so soon. And Emelleās meal was still with him. She was jeĀ
āIām not hungry. I came to see Ms. Swanson.ā Emelie looked at Melanie lying on the bed with bandages wrapped around her left leg unable to move.Ā
āAre you feeling better today, Ms. Swanson?!Ā
Samuel answered on Melanieās behalf, āThe wound doesnāt hurt anymore.ā Asserting his authority as her brother, he added, āMelanie, donāt you think you should show your gratitude when someone comes to check on you?āĀ
Melanie pouted. āThanks for coming, Emelle.āĀ
Emelie smiled gently. āItās nothing. Just focus on getting better. Youāll be tinesoon.āĀ
Samuel, like a patent admonishing a child, continued, āAnd? What did I tell you?āĀ
Melanie reluctantly said, āEmelie, Iām sorry for what I said at the bar that day and for pushing you on the pathāĀ
It didnāt matter to Emelle whether her apology was sincere or coerced by Samuel. She didnāt hold a grudge against her anyway.Ā
āThatās alright. The most important thing now is for you to recover from your injuries.āĀ
After a snort, Melanie looked at Samuel and made a face, āAre you satisfied now? Youāre such a bad guy, preferring other women over your sister.āĀ
Samuel chuckled as he ruffled her head before saying to Emelie, āYou should eat here.āĀ
Emelle readily agreed. Melanie also wanted to eat, she didnāt have much appetite initially, but seeing Emelie eating with relish, she found herself inexplicably drawn to the meal.Ā
It was no wonder why people enjoyed watching eating shows. Seeing the streamer enjoy the food could really whet the audienceās appetite.Ā
Emelie downed the last gulp of soup, unaware that her hearty appetite was actually lowering Melanieās dislike for her. Samuel waited until she finished before saying āSince youāre already here, why donāt you sleep in Melanieās ward tonight? The bed next to hers hasnāt been used.āĀ
Melanie hesitated, āI donāt want to share a ward with her.āĀ
Emelie didnāt want to impose. āItās okay. Iāll go back to my own ward.āĀ
It was getting late, so she didnāt want to bother Melanie anymore and returned to her own ward.Ā
Melanie muttered, āSheās in the same ward as Will Why is she so eager to go back? Are they together again?Ā
āWhatever, Will doesnāt like me anyway. They can do whatever they want, but Iāll never accept her being with you.āĀ
Duce Melanie was done grumbling, Samuel only stayed silent. She then turned to find her usually gentle brother with an icy expression. Startled, she quickly burrowed under the rowers and dared not speak again.Ā
In another ward, William was on the phone with Lyle. āRelease Reggie tomorrow.āĀ
He wanted to put out a show for Eipelir
