Chapter 601 Michelle is So Gentle
Watching Jocelyn, who was so proud of being the heiress of the Bush Family, William sneered. "It seems that you indeed know your sister better than I do."
"William, if you want to be with Hayden, it's not impossible. As I said, as long as you make Teresa divorce Gabriel and be with Hayden, I have no objection. Otherwise, if you are with her, I will not let you have a good life. I can kill Hayden, then kill myself, and see what you can do to me." Staring at William, Jocelyn felt very pleased and happy. Suddenly, she thought of something else and continued, "By the way, there are Chloe and Logan now. I can kill them all, then kill myself."
As Jocelyn's words fell, William grabbed her hair again and pulled it back forcefully.
In an instant, Jocelyn screamed in pain, her face contorted.
"Jocelyn, with such malicious thoughts, do you think Hayden would approve?" William gritted his teeth. Facing a sister like Hayden, he really felt helpless.
"You dare not tell Hayden. Even if you do, she won't believe you. I am her only sister. She's always supported and sided with me since we were kids. Do you think she will choose you over me?" Jocelyn sneered at William, gritting her teeth.
William uttered, "In your sister's heart, I may not be able to compare to you, but Jocelyn, listen to me clearly. If you dare to harm Teresa, harm Chloe and Logan, harm Hayden, I will make sure you suffer like your stepmother Avery, enduring torment and humiliation." With that, William let go of Jocelyn, then opened the fire door of the safe passage and walked away quickly.
As Jocelyn was thrown to the ground with a scream. When the safety door was closed again, she rubbed her sore elbow, gritting her teeth in anger, yelling, "William, you dare not treat me like this."
On the other side of the safety door, Isabella had been paying attention to the situation here. Hearing Jocelyn scream a few times, although she was very worried about her, she still did not go over to stop William.
Now, seeing him coming out of the safe passage, Isabella stood up and walked toward him, apologizing, "William, Jocelyn has been spoiled by us. She doesn't know how to behave or speak appropriately. Please don't take it too seriously with her."
"Isabella, it's fine to spoil her, but you can't let her harm others. If you don't discipline Jocelyn, someone else will." With a deep sigh, William glanced in the direction of the operating room where the lights were still on. He said in a low voice, "I'm leaving now. Please don't let Hayden know that I was here." With that, he walked away quickly.
Isabella turned around, watching William's departing figure, feeling a bit puzzled. He was so anxious and restless when he arrived just now, why was he in such a hurry to leave now without waiting a bit longer? Could it be that Jocelyn said something to William again? All of this made her feel helpless.
Hayden had a severe uterine bleeding, but fortunately, with timely rescue and several top obstetricians and gynecologists, she was stabilized after nearly three hours of surgery. However, due to excessive blood loss, she fell into a coma.
Jocelyn stayed behind. Isabella was afraid that after Hayden woke up, Jocelyn might provoke her to lose her temper, so Isabella personally called Finn and roughly explained the situation to him.
Upon hearing this, Finn was both angry and anxious. Not because Jocelyn had confined Gabriel, drugged him, and forced him to marry her, but because Jocelyn had angered Hayden to the point of severe uterine bleeding, putting her life in danger again.
Although Hayden and Jocelyn were both born of the same mother, Finn had long known their differences in character. Jocelyn had always been temperamental, lacking a broad vision and meticulous thinking, not suitable to inherit The Smith's legacy.
Finn's true heir was only Hayden.
Therefore, Finn immediately ordered his bodyguards to take Jocelyn back to the Imperial Capital.
Hayden was unable to discipline her as her older sister, he refused to believe that he couldn't discipline her as her father.
Jocelyn had always been afraid of Finn since she was a child because he had never liked her from the moment she was born.
Finn had hoped for a son when their mother gave birth, but ended up with a daughter like her. How could Finn possibly like her?
Shortly after she was born, Avery gave birth to Daniel, and Finn's paternal love was mostly directed toward Daniel, his son.
Hayden was the first daughter in the family, and at least before Daniel was born, Finn's paternal love was all for Hayden. Because of this, Hayden had always been protective of Jocelyn.
Upon learning that Finn had ordered her to be taken back to the Imperial Capital, Jocelyn immediately realized that Isabella had informed Finn of everything and instantly harbored hatred toward her. However, she couldn't do anything to Isabella, so she obediently went back to the Imperial Capital.
Knowing that Hayden was out of danger, William felt relieved, but he forgot to go to the hospital to see Michelle.
In the evening, when he returned to the apartment around ten o'clock, he unlocked the door with his fingerprint and saw that the lights were on inside. Not only that, when he looked inside, he saw the table in the dining room with cold food already served, and Michelle lying on the table, apparently asleep.
William's eyebrows furrowed slightly at this sight.
Wasn't Michelle supposed to be in the hospital? How did she end up in his apartment?
He closed the door, changed his shoes, took off his coat, and looked at Michelle, who was still sleeping deeply and seemed completely unaware of any movement.
Slowly, William walked over to her.
Looking at the cold food on the table and the neatly arranged tableware, William felt a strange emotion in his heart.
If he had fallen in love with Michelle from the beginning, instead of Hayden, would all the pain have happened between him and Hayden?
But there were no "what ifs" in this world.
For Hayden, he didn't belong to her now, causing her pain. But for Michelle, she was in a similar situation.
Taking a deep breath, closing his eyes, William reached out and gently touched Michelle's shoulder, softly saying, "Michelle."
In fact, Michelle had woken up when William unlocked the apartment door. However, she had been pretending to be asleep and not moving.
At this moment, feeling William's warm hand on her shoulder and hearing his gentle voice, she slowly opened her eyes, raised her head, and looked at William.
"William, you're back?" Squinting, Michelle asked sleepily.
William nodded slightly. "Why are you here?"
Looking at him, Michelle smiled gently and considerately. "You said you would come to pick me up from the hospital, but you didn't. I figured you were too busy and forgot, so I came here to make dinner for you. That way, you'll have something to eat when you come back from work."
William asked more directly, "How did you get in?"
Feeling like she had made a big mistake, Michelle lightly bit her lip and said, "Last time when I came with your mother, I saw her enter the password. I remembered it. If you're angry, you can change the password. I won't come in without your permission next time."
"No need." Faced with Michelle's honesty, William not only didn't blame her but instead lightly smiled and said, "You can come anytime you want in the future."
Michelle was overjoyed at his words, but she didn't show too much excitement on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Can I move in and live with you? I'm afraid living alone in such a big house sometimes."
William looked at Michelle quietly. When Michelle thought he would refuse, he suddenly nodded slightly and said, "Alright, you can move in tomorrow. I'll have someone prepare a bedroom for you."
"William, you agreed?" Michelle was so excited, her hands climbed up his arm, her face full of joy as she asked.
William nodded, lightly patting her hand, continuing, "I'll go prepare dinner again."
"No need. You go take a shower, " Michelle said happily.
"Okay." William didn't say much and walked toward the master bedroom.
