A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 184

Chapter 184 The Bed Is Cold

When Avery left the bedroom directly, his face was ashen.

Avery forcefully brought Darlene’s phone out. The French windows and balcony doors were locked. When he went out, he coldly ordered the servants outside to lock the bedroom door. Then, he asked them to stand guard outside and not to allow Darlene to go out.

After calling Cyrus into the study, Avery sat down, but he could not suppress his anger. He simply stood up and smashed everything in the room.

No matter how he thought about it, he could not understand why the current Darlene would compete with him like this, wanting to leave him for another

man.

Cyrus, who was by the side, was already used to it. Ever since Avery woke up after losing his memory, this was the first time he had lost his temper.

But before Avery lost his memory, there were many times when he was so angry that he smashed things. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

In the time when Avery was in a bad mood, it was normal for the porcelain items at home to be exchanged every ten days or every month.

Thus, Cyrus was not in a hurry to dissuade him. When Avery was done smashing, there was nothing else to smash in the study. Only then did Cyrus speak, “Mr. Gallard, you should calm down. Your body has just recovered. It is not good for your health to be angry.”

Avery smashed his fist on the book table. He loosened his tie and threw it to the side. Then, he unbuckled his sleeve button and rolled up his sleeves.

Avery pressed his palm on the book table, and blue veins appeared on the back of his hand. He was so angry that he was about to lose his mind. He turned around and looked at Cyrus, who was calm behind him. “I owe her? I owe her!”

In Avery’s memory, he treated Darlene nicely. After she married him two years

ago, she could be considered to have gotten everything she wanted from him.

In the end, what was there for Darlene to be dissatisfied with? How could she get such a big dissatisfaction? How could she act so brazenly with another man? Her mind was filled with thoughts of how to be with another man. How

could she?

After having such a shameless affair, she was still able to lie to him with a calm expression, saying that he, Avery, had harmed her grandmother and younger brother, and she wanted to sue him for divorce.

She said divorce, again!

After thinking about it for a long time, Avery finally understood.

Darlene said she was afraid of her grandmother and younger brother not living well here, and she did not trust Avery. These were all excuses.

The reason she made such a complex pretext was that she only wanted to find an excuse to sue him and demand a divorce.

Cyrus spoke from the side, “Mr. Gallard, Ms. Gallard doesn’t want to stay here anymore. Her health is actually not good now. Why don’t you let her go…”

“Dream on!” Avery suddenly interrupted him.

Cyrus stopped speaking.

Avery’s voice was extremely cold and heavy. “I think my grandfather is right. I suddenly had an accident and forgot so many things. It is most likely that she angered me so much because of that man.

“If you want me to do what she and that man wish or to divorce her, there is no such good thing in this world!

His wife had betrayed him, and now she wanted Avery to let go and not be angry. It was impossible!

Cyrus, who was at the side, knew that there was no point in saying anything more, so he did not say anything else.

After Avery vented his anger, although his anger was still hard to dispel, he managed to calm down a little.

Avery sat down at the desk and gave the strange number that had sent Darlene a message to Cyrus.

“Go and investigate it thoroughly. This number is most likely related to Gustave. Think of all means and find out the source of this number.”

Avery remembered what he had heard before. Darlene had given the comic copyright of the TV series to Gustave, and the Walpole Group was preparing to

start filming.

Moreover, Aleena had rejected the cooperation with Avery and also chose to participate in the TV series of the Walpole Group.

In this regard, they were really working together.

Avery sneered, “Didn’t you want to film? One is in a hurry to flatter, and the other one is in a hurry to realize her dream, right?

“Cyrus, give Mr. Cassius a call. I want to invest in the TV series “Star and You” by the Walpole Group. I want to be one of the shareholders and the person in charge. I want to participate in the production and distribution of the TV

series.”

Avery wanted to let Darlene see who was the man that she could rely on. Was it that man, who was not even the president of the Walpole Group, or Avery?

Cyrus was a little embarrassed, but he still nodded and agreed. “Yes, Mr.

Gallard.”

Avery was currently furious. Although Cyrus also sympathized with Darlene, he had already advised Avery once.

If Cyrus continued to persuade Avery, it would be fine if it was useless, but Cyrus would probably be worried that he would lose his job.

Cassius had already learned that Darlene’s younger brother and grandmother had disappeared. With his understanding of his son, Cassius quickly

understood what was going on.

Cassius was feeling sorry for Avery when he received the call. He immediately agreed to allow Avery to invest in that TV series for 50 percent of the total. Then, Avery could be considered the biggest investor.

Cyrus hung up the phone and came over to inform Avery that it was done.

Avery was in a terrible mood. He had never fought with Darlene like this in his

memory.

But Avery couldn’t tell why. He had just argued with Darlene in the bedroom, and now he wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Darlene. Everything he had done made him feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Avery didn’t want to think too much about it. What was the reason for this inexplicable sense of familiarity? In short, he didn’t believe that he had really done something that had let Darlene down.

But now, Darlene was having an affair with another man. This was the reality.

in front of Avery.

Avery did not reply to Cyrus. He directly got up, took a coat, and walked

outside. “Tell her that I am not coming back today. Whether she wants to eat

or not, it’s up to her. If she wants to eat, ask the servant to open the door and

let her out.”

“Mr. Gallard, are you going to the company?” Cyrus immediately followed.

“Why don’t I go with you? Markus is also waiting for you at the company. Because you have lost your memory, you may be unfamiliar with some things in the company. The chairman asked Markus to report it to you.

Avery directly went downstairs and replied impatiently, “I’m not going to the company. Don’t follow me.”

Cyrus stood where he was and didn’t know what to do.

Avery’s body just recovered. The doctor had instructed him to eat light food and not to drink wine or smoke for the time being. It seemed that Avery was going to go drink.

Avery directly walked out. Cyrus sighed. In the end, Cyrus didn’t dare to anger Avery when he was already angry. Cyrus didn’t follow him.

Avery really did not return until late at night.

Cyrus called Twilight Paradise and confirmed that Avery was drinking there. After instructing the waiter over there to take good care of him, Cyrus was still worried. Therefore, Cyrus drove over to pick Avery up.

Darlene did not come out of the bedroom for the entire day. She had caused a ruckus last night. Although it was said to be an act, it still exhausted her.

In addition to the dispute with Avery just now, as well as the happy feeling that her grandmother and younger brother had left smoothly, it caused her

mood to fluctuate too much.

After Avery left the bedroom, her heart began to ache. When it was evening, it

was even more painful.

Fortunately, Darlene also brought some important medicine, but there was no water in the room. Her throat was dry, so she could not swallow it without

water.

Darlene wanted to go out to get some water, but after knocking on the bedroom door for a long time, no one responded to her.

The two servants stood outside and looked at each other, pretending not to hear anything.

Andrew had come and told the servants not to talk to Darlene in the bedroom nor to open the door for her.

Darlene couldn’t get out, so he could only go into the bathroom. She took some tap water from the sink and swallowed the pill.

After Darlene took the medicine, the sky was completely dark outside.

Darlene didn’t turn on the light, and she lay on the bed in the dark. Her heart seemed to be burning, but her body was cold.

The bedroom was cold. Darlene curled herself up and heard the footsteps

outside in a daze.
