Darlene stayed in Avery’s arms and did not have any reaction. Avery had been getting along very badly with Darlene all the time. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Avery couldn’t even remember how long it had been since he saw her have a sound

sleep.

He placed Darlene on the bed and brought over some warm water. Then he helped her

wash and change her clothes clumsily.

Darlene was really too thin. Avery helped her change into loose clothes and stared at her

slender arms and neck for a while.

He could not understand why Darlene, a healthy person, would suddenly lose so much

weight.

Just as he was lost in thought, Darlene’s phone rang in the bag on the bedside table.

Just now, the servant brought over Darlene’s clothes, as well as her phone.

Avery went around and took out her phone from the bag. It was a string of unfamiliar

numbers.

He hesitated for a moment and answered it. Gustave’s voice immediately sounded over

the phone. “Why didn’t you answer the phone or reply to the message? I arrived in Baltimore. See you tomorrow morning.”

Avery’s face turned gloomy as he replied, “See you tomorrow morning?”

Gustave fell into a brief silence and then laughed. “Mr. Gallard, what a coincidence.”

Avery’s tone was unkind. “How come? Mr. Walpole, you called my wife at midnight and wanted to meet her. It’s not a coincidence, but inappropriate.”

Avery thought of something and felt even more displeased. “Speaking of which, I have to talk with you about something, Mr. Walpole, right? About the matter of you using a body to fake my wife.”

Gustave played dumb. “What? I don’t know what you mean by that. It’s over. Mr. Gallard, just let the bygones be bygones.

“Well, since you and your wife don’t get along well, you’d better part with each other.

There’s no need to make it too ugly.”

Avery’s face was sullen. “Our relationship is very good. Mr. Walpole, you don’t have to

worry.

“Mr. Walpole, since I have been in business with you for many years, I will let you go. I hope that you can behave yourself. Mr. Walpole, it’s not decent to be a home wrecker.”

Gustave said half-jokingly, “Mr. Gallard, you seem to be too confident in your marriage. You’ve tried to ground and threaten Darlene. You can’t be considered a good couple, right? It is a relief to both of you if you end it earlier.”

Avery had his nerve touched. There was only a marriage certificate left between him and

Darlene.

He was not sure if Darlene still had feelings for him.

Gustave continued, “Since it is inconvenient for Darlene to answer the phone, I will call

back later. I don’t have much to talk to you about, Mr. Gallard. I have to go.”

Avery still wanted to warn Gustave, telling him not to go too far and find excuses to get

close to Darlene.

Before Avery could speak it out, Gustave hung up the phone, and there was a beeping

sound.

Avery stared at the number on the phone. The more he looked at it, the more offended he felt. Avery then blacklisted the number. He felt a little guilty and dared not touch her when Darlene was sleeping soundly on the bed.

He held the phone for a long time. In the end, Avery deleted the call record and placed Darlene’s phone back on the bedside table.

Avery held her cold hand and leaned against the bed. He said in a low voice, “There won’t be that day. You’re always my wife. We won’t divorce.”

He leaned against the bed and dozed off. It was already midnight, so he did not sleep for long before it was light.

Darlene did not wake up for the entire night. When Avery woke up the next day by the

bed, she still slept soundly.

Avery asked the doctor to check her. After confirming that there was nothing serious, he

continued to stay with her.

There were a few knocks on the door before Cyrus said, “Mr. Gallard, I’ve checked the Southwood Villa. Do you want to take a look now?”

Avery sat by the bed and reached out to touch Darlene’s forehead. Her temperature was normal, and there was nothing serious.

It seemed that she would probably sleep for at least two more hours.

Avery got up and went out. He glanced at the stuff in Cyrus’ hands and said, “Call Mary

over and ask her.”

Cyrus made a call and quickly called Mary over. So did Vivian.

Avery sat in the break room next to the ICU. When Mary and Vivian came in, he asked, “Mary, I asked you to go to Southwood Villa to see Darlene yesterday. Did you go? Why did I hear that you were in Scenery Villa?”

Mary explained uneasily, “Mr. Gallard, I was planning to go to Southwood Villa

yesterday.

“Later in the afternoon, after I helped Ms. Sheridan move something to Scenery Villa, I found her emotionally unstable because of her psychological illness. I was worried that something might happen to her since she was alone, so I stayed in the Scenery Villa.

“I thought that nothing would happen to Ms. Garcia since she stayed in Southwood Villa. I really didn’t expect that to happen.”

Vivian also explained, “Yesterday, I was in a bad mood and asked Mary to stay with me in Scenery Villa.

“It’s my fault. Avery, since you’ve asked Mary to do it, I should have advised her to go to Southwood Villa to take a look. That way, Ms. Garcia would definitely be fine.’

Avery looked at them with a sullen face. “Ms. Sheridan, I feel that your acting skills are better. I won’t care about what exactly Mary wanted to do for now. It has been so long. Are you really as innocent as you say?”

He threw the photos in his hand onto the coffee table. It showed that Mary entered the Southwood Villa from the backyard and left.

Mary’s face turned pale. Avery turned on his phone and clicked on the surveillance

footage. “If the photos aren’t clear enough, you can look at this.

“There were no surveillance cameras in the backyard of Southwood Villa. Mary, it must be hard for you to go in from the backyard. Unfortunately, I installed one there two days ago.”

After he finished speaking, Avery said to Cyrus, “Call the police and bring Mary over for

investigation. She sneaked in and deliberately hid the fact that she’s been there. I think

that she deliberately caused trouble for Darlene and made her vomit blood.”

When Mary heard that she was going to be sent to jail, she panicked Mary and said anxiously, “Mr. Gallard, you really got me wrong. It’s not my fault that Ms. Garcia had a

heart attack.”

Avery got up and walked over. “A heart attack? I never mentioned Darlene’s illness. Mary, how did you know?”

Mary looked at Cyrus in panic. Cyrus immediately argued, “Mary, don’t look at me. I

never mentioned it to you.”
