Chapter 216 Explanation

• Matteo's heart sank as he saw more tears rolling down Emily’s cheeks. Without thinking twice, he swiftly moved toward her, scooping her up effortlessly. One arm hooked under her knees, the other behind her back, and he lifted her into his arms. Emily was too furious to let him touch her, let alone carry her.
• “No! Put me down, you asshole!” she shouted, beating his chest with her fists in protest, but Matteo didn’t stop until he gently placed her back on the bed.
• Emily was breathing heavily, her face flushed red with anger, glaring at him through her watery eyes. Matteo calmly poured her a glass of water and extended it toward her, only for Emily to slap it out of his hand, spilling the water all over the bed.
