Only you in my love novel Chapter 787

Sick people needed rest, so Michelle stayed in the hospital for three days. Nina came to keep her company occasionally, but every time, she only stayed for less than an hour because she would always get called back.

Because Leon was busy as well during the daytime, Nina worried that Michelle would feel lonely and bored.

But Michelle didn't mind being alone at all. She reassured Nina that she could watch videos on her phone and would always see off the other woman with a smile.

The same thing happened today. Michelle waved goodbye to Nina as usual before taking out her phone to continue where she left off with the soap opera that she wasn't able to finish yesterday.

If the rest of the day had gone on like the past two days, she would binge-watch until dark. Leon would then appear with her dinner. They would eat, chat and watch her soap opera together.

Even if Leon wasn't fond of watching soap operas, he stayed by her side and watched a few episodes with her.

But that evening, it wasn't Leon who arrived but Bryant and Valerie.

The day after Michelle woke up, Bryant wanted to bring Valerie over to apologize, but Leon refused. He used Michelle's need for rest as an excuse.

When Michelle's face returned to its usual color and she didn't seem to have any mental trauma from the accident, Leon allowed them to visit.

Leon had something to deal with so he couldn't be there at that time. Worried about Michelle's safety, he asked John for back-up.

As soon as Bryant and Valerie entered the suite, so did Amy.

For some reason, Michelle was not surprised to see Valerie and Bryant. But when Amy appeared after them, her eyes widened in surprise.

Even Bryant could not help scowling.

As John's assistant, Amy often stood as his representative. Her presence meant that he was involved in the matter.

Bryant wondered if this was Nina's doing.

Taking in the cold look on Amy's face and noticing how Valerie's face had gone pale, Bryant felt a little worried.

So Valerie had not only offended Leon but also Nina. If this matter was not settled, she would be unable to live peacefully on C Island or in Lexingport City.

Bryant fervently wished that Michelle could forgive Valerie.

"Are you feeling better now, Michelle?" he asked in concern.

Before the young woman could respond, Amy answered coolly, "If Miss He felt better, would she still be lying in bed?"

Before coming to the hospital, John and Nina had repeatedly reminded her that Michelle was a nice girl with a tendency to be a pushover. No one was allowed to bully the young woman.

Amy's words made the temperature in the room drop.

Bryant clammed up in embarrassment. After an awkward pause, he said, "I'm really sorry that you got hurt, Michelle. Valerie has realized her mistake so I hope that you can forgive her. We'll cover your medical fees and pay for any damages. We also bought you a new camera."

He presented the apology gift and set it down on a nearby table.

Michelle fixed her gaze on the new camera. She had been thinking about what she would do after the accident. She didn't have much in savings, and she couldn't afford new equipment.

Satisfied with their compensation, she happily accepted the gift.

Amy stiffened in alert when she saw Michelle look at the camera with a smile.

Nina had warned her that Valerie shouldn't be forgiven so easily. They still had to find out whether Michelle's fall was an accident or done deliberately.

Amy wondered, 'Even if Valerie claimed it was an accident, why did she bring Michelle to the emergency staircase? It's more likely that she had an intent to kill.'

She picked up the camera bag and brought it closer to her bed. "Miss He, see if you like this camera. If it's not, you can ask them to get you a better one. After all, they should make compensation."

She emphasized the word "should," trying to make Michelle realize that her forgiveness should not be bought off so easily by a mere camera.

"Thank you, Amy." Michelle smiled at John's assistant and started to inspect the camera.
