People chuckled whenever she tended to the millionaire’s hygiene needs. But then came a moment when she discovered something in that spot that chilled her to the bone……

Emily couldn’t forget the moment when she felt his fingers move in response to her touch. He was there. And he was trying to fight the coma, but Emily knew it was too early to celebrate.

If Michael was coming back, the danger was only beginning. Sophia and Paul would do anything to ensure he didn’t wake up. And the only person who could protect him was her.

In the following days, Emily intensified her care, while other nurses mocked her for spending so much time on a hopeless patient. She talked to Michael every day, told stories about the outside world, read the news, described the weather. And every time she did, she noticed small changes – a twitch of the eyebrow, a slight movement of the eyelids, an accelerated heartbeat when her voice filled the room.

But Emily needed proof. No one would believe her without concrete evidence. She began secretly recording signs of Michael’s improving condition on her mobile phone camera, carefully hiding the device between the sheets.

She captured the moments when he reacted and documented the changes in her personal notes. Meanwhile, tension in the clinic grew. Sophia and Paul started appearing more often, but not to watch over Michael.

They were there to pressure the doctors and administrators, demanding a decision on transferring Michael’s assets, claiming he would never recover. As if they were desperately trying to get rid of him as soon as possible. One night, when everyone had left the ward, Emily entered Michael’s room for her usual care.

Holding his hand, she felt a slight squeeze. This time it wasn’t subtle. The grip was firm and deliberate.

She gasped in surprise. And tears immediately welled up in her eyes. «Michael, are you there?» she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.

Michael’s eyes didn’t open, but his hand squeezed hers again. He was trying to communicate. Emily knew she couldn’t wait any longer.

The next morning, she showed one of the videos to the clinic’s chief doctor, Dr. Christopher Leonard. She hoped he would listen to her, see what was happening. But to her surprise, the doctor watched the video indifferently and said, «It’s a reflex.»

Don’t create unnecessary hopes. Emily’s heart sank. They didn’t want to believe it.

Or worse, they didn’t want Michael to wake up. Leaving the office, Emily passed Paul in the hallway. His gaze met hers for a second.

And there was something in it that made her blood run cold. He knew she was noticing more than she should. That night, returning to Michael’s room, Emily discovered something that made her heart stop.

The cables of the machine controlling his brain oxygenation were disconnected. Panic gripped her. They were trying to silence Michael before he could wake up.

But Emily wouldn’t allow it. She was ready to fight at any cost. The sound of beeping machines in Michael Reynolds’ room echoed in Emily’s heart like a silent scream.

The monitor, which once displayed his vital functions, flashed silent alarm signals, and the disconnected cables were proof that this was happening. It was no accident. Someone was trying to kill him.

Emily acted quickly. With trembling hands, she reconnected the cables, checking Michael’s breathing and heartbeat. His body responded slowly, as if fighting an invisible tide.

When the monitor stabilized, Emily released the breath trapped in her chest. For now, she had saved him. But this only confirmed her worst suspicions.

Michael hadn’t ended up in a coma by accident. And now, the only person who could prevent them from finishing the job was her. That night, Emily barely slept…

Her heart was torn between fear and the need to act. She knew she could no longer trust anyone on the medical team, let alone Michael’s family. She was alone. The next day, hiding her tension, she decided to follow Paul.

She pretended to head to the cafeteria, but upon seeing Michael’s brother-in-law entering one of the administrative offices, she approached silently and pressed her ear to the door. Paul’s voice was muffled but clear enough for Emily to understand. This has crossed the line…
