Chapter 216 I'm Here for You
Emelie wasn’t sure what they had been discussing earlier, but both of them suddenly tell silent.
She glanced at William and then shifted her gaze to Samuel, who was seated in the chair next to the bed. She
tried to sit up, but with her left hand injured, she couldn't support
herself on the mattress.
Samuel promptly stood up, placing his hand on her shoulder naturally and adjusting a pillow behind her waist to
make her more comfortable. His demeanor had softened, and he asked gently, “How are you feeling? Is it
painful?”
Emelie shook her head. “I took painkillers, so it doesn’t hurt much. Why did you chere? is Ms. Swanson
seriously injured?”
Samuel responded, “The surgery went well. She's still under anesthesia and hasn't woken up yet. I've asked the
nurse to monitor her closely in the room. I'll be notified as soon as she wakes.”
Emelle frowned slightly. Samuel sensed that she wanted him to take care of Melanie instead of staying with her.
Before she could respond, he said, “Melanie’s room is on the sfloor, just a few steps away. | wouldn't feel
right if | didn’t check on you.”
Emelie reluctantly set aside her initial words and instead asked, “I realize thaven't asked you yet. Were you
injured?”
When the dog chased after Melanie, Samuel was defenseless, which made it hard for him to avoid getting
injured. Samuel shook his head to indicate that he hadn't been harmed. However, he “accidentally” pushed his
sleeve up a bit, and Emelie noticed the edge of a bandage. Pausing for a moment, she quickly rolled up his
sleeve and saw the bandage wrapped around his forearm

Samuel's eyes held a hint of amusement, reminiscent of when she asked about his fiancée last time. He spoke
gently, “It was just a shallow bite. I'll get a rabies shot, and it'll be Tine
Emelie wasn’t entirely convinced. “Are you sure it was just a shallow bite?
“Wantto unwrap the bandage and show you?”
“No need for that.”
William remained silent, his demeanor stern Samuel gently squeezed Emelie’s hand. “And you, too. Next time
you decide to play hero, make sure you prioritize your own safety birst.”
“I know,” Emelle replied.
“You're quite curious, aren’t you? You wanted to see what it looks like when someone gets shot dead. Aren't you
afraid of nightmares. or have you already had them?”
Samuel hit the mall on the head. Emelie nodded helplessly.
Samuel pondered for a moment. “I've heard from the elders that eating hard-boiled eggs can calm the nerves
after a fright. Il bring you a couple later.”
Emelle sighed resignedly. “Isn't that just a myth for children? You're a university professor. It doesn’t seem quite
appropriate for you to be making such unfounded statements.” “At the edge of science les mysticism,” Samuel
replied.
They chatted as if they were alone, completely disregarding William lying on the other bed. Witam observed as
Emelle, who usually appeared guarded or cautious around him, now conversed cheerfully with another man just
three feet away from him.
“Emelie.” he called out sternly.
Emelie turned to look at him, William's expression was cold as he reached over to switch off the bedside lamp.
“Ineed to rest. Don't disturb me.”
Samuel interjected, “Emelie, it’s not appropriate for you to be in the shospital room as Mr. Middleton. I'll ask
a nurse to transfer you to Melanie’s room!
Emelie was eager to leave, but William wasn’t willing to let her go. William's lips quirked, devoid of a smile, “Ms.
Haven, are you leaving now?
The implication was clear-if she left now, his earlier promise to delete the photos upon her discharge would no
longer hold. Emelie gripped the blanket tightly, holding her breath.

“I'm here for you You don’t need to be afraid, Samuel assured her. “Whatever it is, just tell me. I can help you”
Finelie’s eyes flickered slightly, and she parsed her lips. “Lido have something I'd like to ask you about.” Samuel
nodded encouragingly. “Go ahead.”
