A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 161 Critically Ill Notification Has to Be Signed

After Gustave was called out by Giovanni, Darlene had a long nightmare.

The ward was completely dead silent. She fell into the nightmare and trembled with

cold.

In the dream, the court reached the verdict that their divorce was allowed. Avery stood outside the court and

wanted to take her away.

Hector and the staff of the court were watching coldly from the side and spoke like

machines.

“Ms. Garcia, according to the verdict of the court, Mr. Gallard has the right to immediately take you away. Please

leave with him. Mr. Walpole has no right to

interfere.”

Avery reached out and grabbed her, expressionlessly claiming to bring her back.

Darlene struggled with all her efforts. Gustave came over with a sullen face to stop. Avery. The court staff came

over with Avery’s men and pushed Gustave away.

The scene in her mind changed. Gustave fell along the long staircase outside the court, leaving a shocking amount

of blood on the white snow.

Cassius rushed over and slapped Darlene hard on the face. His face was full of

anger.

“You are going to die. Why are you dragging my son down? Gustave is kind to you. He even lost his career and

everything else for you. You are selfish and only care about

yourself!”

Darlene lay on the bed and grabbed the quilt tightly. Her clenched hands trembled desperately.

Her face was covered by sweat. She knew that she was in a dream, but she couldn’t open her eyes.

Darlene shook her head with a pale face. “No, it’s not like that…”

The dream was so vivid, and she could not tell whether she was in a dream or reality.

She suddenly felt a dull pain in her arm. A few men in black suits broke into the ward and pulled her up from the

bed.

Darlene suddenly woke up from the dream. She opened her eyes and looked at the fierce men in front of her. At

this moment, reality overlapped with the terrible dream.

The bodyguards did not care about Darlene’s weak body at all and dragged her outside

the ward.

Darlene had not yet completely woken up. She wanted to grab the door frame and resist, but the professionally–

trained guards were too strong. She could not resist at all.

Darlene felt that these men looked familiar, but her mind was a mess. She could not

remember where she had seen them.

She said anxiously, “Who are you? Why did you take me away like this? There are people and surveillance

everywhere in the hospital. It is illegal for you to do this!”

One of the bodyguards finally said indifferently, “Ms. Garcia, stop struggling. It is Mr. Andrew’s order to take you

there.

“Mr. Avery is now unconscious and sent to the emergency room. Your grandmother and

brother are now in Mr. Andrew’s hands.”

Darlene gradually gained consciousness. She finally understood the bodyguard’s words.

Was Avery sent to the emergency room?

He had just won a lawsuit in court, so he was supposed to be happy and proud at this. time. Was he sent to the

emergency room because he fainted out of happiness?

The bodyguard dragged Darlene to another building and then into an independent lounge in the hospital. Andrew

was sitting on the sofa in the lounge. His face was sullen as he flipped through the photos and surveillance videos

on the mobile phone screen.

Darlene was thrown to the ground by the bodyguard. Her body was still very weak. When she hit the ground, she

seemed to have broken bones. Beads of sweat dripped down from her forehead.

Andrew did not even look at her. After checking all the photos on the phone, he asked Rachel coldly, “How is

Avery?”

Rachel answered, “I asked the doctors and nurses in the emergency room. Mr. Avery is in a bad condition now.

“Mr. Avery’s sudden suffocation caused by the claustrophobia in the elevator lasted for

a long time.

“The doctor said that two to five minutes of suffocation could lead to the complete damage of brain cells. After five

minutes of suffocation, there was a high probability that the patient would directly… die.

Rachel’s voice lowered in fear. “It’s hard to say judging from the current situation. The emergency room has issued

a critically ill notification.”

Andrew grabbed the phone on the coffee table and smashed it on Darlene’s head.

Darlene used to thank Andrew for letting her live in the Gallard’s home for ten years.

But when the phone was directly smashed on her head, she couldn’t accept suffering like this. She immediately

tilted her head to dodge it.

The phone did not hit her head and fell to the ground with a bang.

Andrew was so angry that his face was solemn. “You hide? How could you hide? My Gallard family has raised a

black sheep, a jinx!

“You want to kill my grandson, right? Let me tell you. Don’t even think about gaining any benefits from us!”

Darlene did not say anything. She had no idea what had happened. The lounge was filled with Andrew’s people. She

wanted to argue for herself, but it wouldn’t work.

Andrew coldly ordered Rachel, “Hurry up and continue to wait outside the emergency

room!

“No one is allowed to sign the critically ill notice. My grandson had an accident in this hospital. If the hospital can’t

save him, it’ll be doomed!”

Andrew looked at Darlene’s silent appearance and confirmed that she was feeling guilty. He was extremely angry.

He threw the printed surveillance photos to Darlene and said coldly, “You are the only one who knows that Avery

has claustrophobia other than some Gallard family members and a few psychologists.

“You malfunctioned the elevator and trapped him inside. Do you think I wouldn’t know that you were the murderer

just because you refused to admit it?”

Darlene understood. Avery was sent to the emergency room because of the elevator malfunction and he fainted

from suffocation caused by claustrophobia.

Darlene looked at the photos on the ground. One of the people who entered the elevator with Avery was Elisa.

But at this time, if Darlene admitted she knew Elisa, Elisa would probably be harmed.

Darlene only took a glance before she raised her head and sneered at Andrew. “So that’s why you want to see me.

You really think too highly of me,

“At this point, if possible, I wish I could get away from Avery as far as possible. Locking him up in the elevator? Why

don’t you teach me how to do it?”

Andrew was even more furious. “Mr. Walpole and Mr. Elicott are both willing to help you, aren’t they? Darlene, you

can’t do things on your own. Aren’t there enough people willing to work for you?

“One man helped you divorce, and the other helped you harm your husband. Darlene,

you have been in the Gallard’s home for so many years. Why didn’t I know you were so capable before?”

After Andrew said so, Rachel came in with a sullen face. “Mr. Andrew, the doctor in the emergency room requires

the critically ill notification to be signed. Mr. Andrew, you’d better hurry over. I’m afraid…”
