Chapter 320 An Awkward Atmosphere

It’s only during the critical times that I realize how important I am to him!

I wrapped my arms around Michael’s neck, feeling touched then. At that very moment, I felt that everything was worth it to be with him for the rest of my days.

Ronan followed behind us, and his gaze dimmed when he saw me snuggling into Michael’s arms with bliss written all over my face. I knew that he was feeling dejected, but I only wanted to be with Michael.

Meanwhile, Emma stood frozen to the spot with her face drained of all color, saying nary a word further. While Michael didn’t do anything to her then, considering his character, I believed that he wouldn’t let her off easily this time because she had gone past his bottom line.

When we climbed into Michael’s car, his arm was still bleeding. I looked at him in distress, wishing that I was the one injured instead. Seeing him injured while saving me, I was even more devastated than if that knife had grazed me.

Ronan drove behind our car, and we headed straight for the hospital.

It wasn’t until the doctor cut off Michael’s shirt and revealed his arm did I see how bad the injury was.

The cut was at least ten centimeters long and was very deep. The doctor even said that it almost hurt the tendon, cleaning the wound with antiseptic while treating it. At the same time, another doctor treated the cut on my neck. When he cleaned the injury with antiseptic, stinging pain assailed me. My injury is insignificant, yet it’s already unbearably painful. I really don’t know how Michael can bear the excruciating agony when the cut on his arm is so deep.

Michael sat there expressionlessly, merely allowing the doctor to clean and suture his wound. From beginning to end, he didn’t make a single sound. However, I could sense that he was holding himself in check from the sweat dotting his forehead.

When I was done, I went over to him and grasped his other hand. I looked at him in anguish, words eluding me.

“I messed up this time. I promise that such an incident will never happen again in the future.”

Michael’s gaze stopped on the gauze on my neck. Then, he stared into my eyes and enunciated that solemnly.
