Monica really did not want to lie to him.
However, seeing Michael's expectant gaze at that moment, she nodded in the end. "Uncle, don't worry. I'll take good care of Michael. You can rest in peace."
Liam nodded in relief.
He looked frail like he could not hold on for much longer anymore.
Michael quickly placed the oxygen mask on his father's face and asked the nurse to help him adjust the bed down.
With the bed down, only the sound of Liam's heavy breathing echoed throughout the entire ward.
After some time, Liam seemed to have fallen asleep.
Michael whispered to Monica, "I'll send you back."
Monica turned to look at Michael and nodded before they left together.
As they left, Monica felt an indescribable pain in her heart.
She had no idea what Michael had been going through, and she even proposed a breakup.
She quietly regulated her emotions, thinking that one day, everything would pass.
