Since he was willing to eat on his own, the nurse immediately informed the Dillion family. Mrs. Dillion had the servants whip up a lavish meal right away and had it delivered.
Since William hadn't eaten for so long, his stomach couldn't handle greasy food, so he opted for a light soup and some small pastries.
After he had eaten a little cake and drank the soup, Mrs. Dillion was immensely satisfied.
With William cooperating with the treatment, he recovered quickly. In less than a week, he was already checking out of the hospital.
After being discharged, William, representing the Dillion Group, landed several big deals in a row, much to Timothy Dillion's delight.
"William, I always knew you were my good boy," he said, "Forget about the past. Focus on your work, and things will get better." William just smiled without responding.
Seeing William bounce back, Brittany was also happy for him.
On the weekend, she asked William out to dinner.
It was the first time they had seen each other since their breakup.
Brittany carefully prepared a gift to celebrate William's discharge.
When she arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant, William was already there.
He stood up and said, "Bri, over here."
He was a lot thinner than before, but he looked good. He was still smiling, just like the old days.
Brittany walked over quickly, asking, "Are you fully recovered?"
"Yes, fully recovered."
William pulled out a chair for Brittany.
"I've ordered food to your taste. Eat up." William looked at Brittany and said, "You look like you've lost weight."
"I've been busy with all the paperwork from the Dustin Group; I indeed haven't been getting enough rest."
Even though they had broken up, Brittany didn't feel awkward around him.
She pulled out a box from her bag and pushed it towards William, "I got this from the church the other day. Keep it with you."
She felt she owed William a lot and hoped that the rest of his life could go smoothly.
William opened the box to find a red bracelet. He carefully examined it. His eyes sparkled and a smile flashed across his face as he replied, "Thank you."
