Chapter 317 

If Michael had contacted Oscar earlier, he probably would have just said not to bother. 

“Was it the Starr family?” Michael asked softly. 

“Yes, Lindsay. You offended her,” Winnie replied. “But Clarice took revenge for you. The Starr family is currently too busy dealing with their own mess. Once you get back, don’t let her off the hook-make sure she knows that the Morrison family, and you, are not to be trifled with.” 

Winnie spoke with a certain satisfaction. Seeing Clarice’s ruthless methods used in this context was strangely gratifying. 

“I did make her look bad,” Michael admitted. “Her retaliation is reasonable.” 

“Stop talking about ‘reasonable.’ No matter the excuse, if someone hurts you, you should be angry, hate them, and take revenge. That’s the right way to feel!” Winnie rolled her eyes in exasperation. Every time she discussed these topics with Michael, she ended up in full-on teacher mode. 

“If that’s the case, shouldn’t my first target of revenge be you?” Michael suddenly countered. 

Winnie froze, momentarily speechless. She stared at him wide-eyed, feeling utterly defeated-like the student who starves the master they were supposed to help. 

“Michael, I saved you this time. We’re even. You don’t need to keep saying I owe you anything.” Winnie lowered her head, a little annoyed. 

She had always understood Michael’s feelings—but she couldn’t be with him. Precisely because he was too good, she couldn’t take advantage of his heart. And that time, when he nearly died because of her… she carried an unbearable guilt. She had wanted to explain, but he wasn’t ready to hear it. 

All the talk about owing him, after so long… it had to be enough by now. 

“You wanted to explain to me before, right? Since you weren’t completely indifferent… that time, why-” 

Michael’s expression darkened immediately. 

He had been utterly desperate back then. The pain of his broken ribs was nothing compared to the agony of watching her leave with someone else. 

He had stayed in the hospital for a month, and she hadn’t visited him even once. Yet, the moment he was discharged, he went straight to her. He wasn’t blaming her-he just needed to make sure she was safe. 

Unfortunately, he overheard her speaking to a friend. 

“Michael would be better off dead. Then he wouldn’t keep bothering me anymore.” 

In that instant, Michael’s heart went completely cold. 

Later, when Winnie saw how distant he had become, she tried to explain-but he ignored her. 

“You didn’t want to hear me explain back then. There’s no point talking about it now,” Winnie said softly, not wanting to stir any more conflict.

“I want to hear it now. Even if it’s meaningless, I want to hear it,” Michael said. 

“I… when I ran that night, the light was too dim, and I grabbed the wrong person. I went back to find you afterward, but you were already unconscious…”

It had been Winnie who carried Michael out while he was unconscious. Michael’s family hadn’t arrived yet. To save him, Winnie had been forced to take a massive dose of drugs by someone she had previously offended. 

She clung to her last shred of consciousness and dragged him to safety. 

But her own condition was precarious. 

When Michael was rushed for emergency care, she was simultaneously undergoing gastric lavage and treatment herself. When she finally woke, it was three days later. The Olson family, embarrassed by her ordeal, 

immediately took her home to recover. 

Her body was weak. Once she learned Michael was out of danger, she didn’t contact him again.
