Chapter 11: Chapter 11

Chapter 11 She Does Not Want Him Anymore

Vivian did not expect that after stepping on Darlene, Darlene would vomit blood and faint.

Then, Vivian remembered that Darlene had been forced to miscarry and had a large area of serious

burns on her body. No one would be able to survive with so many wounds in such heavy rain.

When Vivian was about to leave in a panic, Avery had already come out from

inside.

Vivian grasped the handle of the umbrella in her hand and hesitated for a very short time. Vivian

immediately threw away the umbrella and knelt next to Darlene in the rain, crying anxiously.

“Ms. Garcia, Ms. Garcia, are you alright? It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have come to see you…”

Avery held the umbrella and approached, covering the rain above Vivian’s

head.

Avery looked at Darlene who was unconscious on the ground and asked, “What happened?”

Vivian explained uneasily, “The rain was so heavy and Ms. Garcia was still injured. I was worried. So, I

took out the umbrella to help Darlene block the rain. But, just as my umbrella covers her head, she …

she…”

As Vivian spoke, Vivian got up in a flurry. “Avery, it’s all my fault. I know that Ms. Garcia doesn’t like me,

so I shouldn’t have come to make her angry.

Quickly carry Ms. Garcia in and let Seth have a check.”

Before Vivian could finish speaking, Vivian’s legs went soft and she fell to the ground.

Vivian held her abdomen with a painful expression.

Avery helped Vivian up and coldly instructed Mary, who was rushing over, “Help Ms. Sheridan go in and

rest. Ask Seth to come over and take a look at her. She just had a miscarriage and she can’t get wet.”

Mary helped Vivian in and asked with concern, “Then Ms. Garcia…”

“She fainted the moment Vivian gave her an umbrella. I think she either has a guilty conscience or she

predicted that Vivian would be soft–minded and plead for her,” Avery indifferently interrupted Mary and

asked her to help

Vivian in.

As soon as they left, Avery reached out and pulled Darlene, who was unconscious on the ground, up.

“What are you pretending for? I told you that if there was any accident that happened to Vivian and her

baby, I would kill you with my own hands. Now that the baby is gone, Vivian experienced the pain of

losing a child. You just knelt in the heavy rain, which is already a bargain for you. Can’t you bear it?”

Where Avery grabbed happened to be Darlene’s left arm which had been scalded. It had just been

soaked in the rain, and the wound was probably starting to fester. Now that Avery pressed on it, it was no

different from

pouring salt on the wound.

Darlene woke up from a coma in pain. Her whole body suddenly trembled,

and Darlene wanted to pull her arm out of Avery’s palm.

Avery released his hand in disgust and said with a face full of disdain, “What? You can’t continue acting

like this? Didn’t you faint? Darlene, you are a bad

actress.”

Darlene’s heart was violently throbbing, and she felt pain from the burnt

neck and arm as well as from her lower abdomen. Darlene had just been

aborted.

The back of Darlene’s hand had been stepped on by Vivian and was now bleeding. The rain washed

away the blood quickly.

Darlene felt countless kinds of pain enter her mind as if insects and ants were drilling into her bone

marrow and flesh.

For the first time, Darlene felt that she was so close to death.

And Avery in front of her pulled her up again and again, forcing her to kneel.

Blood flowed out of the corner of Darlene’s mouth. Looking at Avery’s

indifferent face in the heavy rain, Darlene suddenly smiled and said, “I

regret it.”

Avery frowned, finally willing to tilt the umbrella a little toward Darlene.

Avery leaned down and asked Darlene, “What? Are you guilty? Do you know

you are wrong?”

It was hard for Darlene to speak but she said clearly, “I regret it. If I can

choose again, ten years ago, even if I starve to death in the orphanage and freeze to death, I shouldn’t

have been adopted by Mrs. Gallard.

“Three years ago, just as Vivian said, even if I had to marry a beggar, I shouldn’t take care of and marry

a cripple like you.”

Avery squatted down and grabbed Darlene’s neck. “You admitted it. If not for money, you wouldn’t have

been willing to marry me three years ago. Cripple? I think Vivian didn’t say those words in the past. It

was you who said it, right?”

Darlene let Avery pinch her neck. Darlene felt her limbs and bones were in

pain, but at this moment, those pain could not compare to the pain and unwillingness in her heart.

Darlene didn’t feel sad for nor loved and trusted by Avery. She just felt sad for paying so much effort and

sincerity to such kind of evil man like Avery.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Darlene’s eyes were red. She said, “It has been three years.

First, you were paralyzed in a car accident for a year and fell into a vegetative state. You have slept in

the hospital for a year. That year, for a whole year, I have never left the hospital for a day.

“I learned how to massage you, wash you, and even clean up the filth. Avery, even your father was

impatient, I have done it for you day after day for a

year.”

Darlene’s tears fell along with the rain, and Avery could not tell.

“You have been paralyzed for a year and woke up. Because you want to anger Vivian, you married me.

After that, you sat in the wheelchair for a year, and the nanny changed twelve times. I remember clearly

that none of them could

satisfy you.

“So it was still me. I had just found a satisfactory job and had no choice but to resign and take care of

you at home. You had a bad temper when you couldn’t move. You liked to throw things the most.

“You hit my head several times. I went to the hospital in the middle of the

night.”

Avery frowned.

Darlene looked at Avery. Avery was the man that Darlene had loved for ten

years. At this moment, Darlene felt that she didn’t want to love Avery

anymore.

“Avery, I also have feelings and emotions. My body is not made of iron. I have not complained all these

years, but that does not mean that I am that

tough.”

A strange feeling flashed through Avery’s eyes, and his voice finally had a trace of uneasiness. “What

you have done will not be the reason why you hurt Vivian again and again.”

Darlene chuckled and said, “So, you will never remember what I have done for you. You will only

remember and trust every word that Vivian said. You will believe that I hurt her and deny everything that I

have done…”

Darlene took a deep breath and did not continue. “Forget it, that’s it. Whether you believe it or not, I can’t

change it no matter how much I say. I only hope that one day, if you regret it, you must not come to my

grave. I would find it disgusting and unlucky.”

Avery said coldly, “What do you mean? What grave? What tricks do you want to play? Do you want to

pretend to be pitiful again?”

Mary rushed out from inside and said, “Mr. Gallard, Ms. Sheridan suddenly

fainted.”

Avery stood up and said, “Kneel properly.” Then Avery turned around and

left.

Before leaving, Avery noticed the wound on Darlene’s palm. It seemed to have been stepped on.

When Avery entered, he asked Mary, “How did Darlene get injured on the back of her hand?”

Mary hesitated, and Avery said in a low voice, “Mary, you better tell the

truth.”

Mary was silent for a moment, and then she said with some fear, “Mr.

Gallard, I just saw Ms. Sheridan..
