Chapter 163 Mr. Walpoleâs Wife
As he looked at the few people who had suddenly barged in from outside the lounge, Andrewâs face
darkened.
Elisa had originally been trapped in another room by Andrew. After Gustave found her, she explained the
situation and came over with Gustave.
Elisa was a photographer and a partâtime reporter. She had the habit of carrying mini cameras with her.
Now, the camera she had on her was just in time to be used.
The video she had shot was the scene of Andrew approaching Darlene who had fallen to the ground with
a fierce expression. He then rudely reached out and pulled her up,
wanting to slap her.
Andrewâs words were also recorded together. âWhether you admit it or not, Darlene, Averyâs matter must
be blamed on you. If something happens to my grandson, I will be the law. I can punish you however I
want.â
Gustave quickly walked in and helped Darlene up. When he walked over, he pulled a pair of sunglasses
on Darnellâs face and threw it at the knife in the bodyguardâs hand.
The knife that the bodyguard was holding was originally meant to threaten Nigel. The sunglasses flew
over too quickly and he did not react in time. The knife in his hand was hit to the ground.
Darnell quickly went over and controlled the bodyguard. He laughed, âDidnât Mr. Walpole say that my
sunglasses are kind of pretentious? Isnât that useful?â
Andrew looked at the stunned bodyguards and angrily said, âStop them. What are you. all standing there
for?
My grandson has become like this. Today, Darlene canât leave here. Mr. Walpole insists on meddling in
other peopleâs business. Donât blame my people for accidentally injuring you!â
Elisa shook the camera in her hand and laughed sarcastically, âTsk, tsk. You are the law? Donât even
think about leaving this door? Those who donât know what happened will think that you are filming some
gangster movie.
âI think itâs better to keep your mouth shut. My camera is still recording.
Andrew was so angry that he almost lost his mind. He finally remembered that Elisa was still holding a
camera in her hand. He immediately pointed at her and couldnât speak clearly. âHurry up and take her
camera away! Donât let her continue to shoot
me!â
A bodyguard quickly walked over to Elisa. Elisa grabbed the camera tightly and dodged backward while
raising her voice.
âEveryone, look. They are feeling guilty and want to destroy my things. If not for the fact that my camera
can automatically preserve and upload videos and photos, no one would know what happened in this
room today.â
The bodyguard approached with a furious face. Darnell grabbed his shoulder behind him. The other
bodyguards also came over and quickly started fighting.
Gustave helped Darlene out. He looked at Elisa and said in a low voice, âUpload the videos and the
photos on the Internet.â
Andrew was a little panicked and said harshly, âGustave, how dare you!â
Gustave laughed, âThank you for your grandsonâs hard work. I am no longer the CEO of the Walpole
Group. There is nothing to lose. Do I need to consider the consequences of doing something?â
Andrew was speechless for a moment. Gustave turned around and looked at him mockingly. âOh, I
almost forgot. I have a father, Mr. Cassius, and my mother, who is
mentally ill.
âThe Gallard family always uses relatives to threaten others. If you are capable, you can
also try and threaten the Walpole family. See if you can hurt my parents.â
Andrew dared to bully Darlene without any evidence. It was only because Darlene had no power, and
she had been raised by the Gallard family for so many years.
But the Walpole family was not something he could ruin, not to mention Gustaveâs
parents.
Andrew had no other choice but to watch Darlene being taken away, and then the videos. and photos
that Elisa had taken were uploaded online, which quickly caused a great uproar on the Internet.
In less than a few hours, the Gallard family began to be attacked by public opinions on
the Internet. The stock price plummeted, and the group had to launch a crisis PR to try to suppress the
news and public opinions on the Internet.
However, the result of this action was obviously minimal, and even because of the
deliberate suppression, he shot themselves in the foot.
After Gustave brought Darlene back to the ward, when Darleneâs condition had basically stabilized, the
others left the ward and stayed in the corridor.
Aleena, Darnell, and Elisa sat in the corridor of the hospital, looking through the comments on the
Internet that were full of complaints about Andrew and the Gallard Group, and they were in high spirits.
Elisa had worked in a company below Gustave before. Aleena had recently been filming a TV drama
series âStar and Youâ in Gustaveâs Company, so she could be considered to have some interaction with
Elisa at work. They were kind of colleagues.
Elisa also scolded Andrew as a passerby. She spoke to Aleena.
âThis damn old man actually dared to imprison my friend and me just now. My friend is still lying in the
sick room in fear.
âWhen it spreads again, I will expose the fact that he forcibly took us away in the elevator. When he tries
to whitewash, I will give him a fatal blow!â
Aleena nodded in agreement. âI support you. It is an honor for the media industry to have a reporter like
you who sticks to justice and is not afraid of power. You are the role
model of the industry!â
Darnell nodded in agreement. âI respect you!â
Elisa suddenly panicked. âI am just an ordinary employee. I am also afraid of power.
âIsnât Mr. Walpole inside? If any of you are familiar with him, let him help me. If
something really happens to me, you must ask for his help.â
Aleena and Darnell looked at the ceiling together and said in unison, âNot familiar.â
Elisa was so angry that she took out her phone and was about to contact the reporters to delete the
news. âIt turns out that you guys are just watching the show. Donât you think itâs dangerous for me? The
photos are no longer posted and I will stop writing the news. My life is more important. I will withdraw
them now!â
Darnell saw that she was really going to withdraw and immediately stopped her.âI was just joking with
you. Donât worry. Since Mr. Walpole asked you to send it, if anything happens, he will be the one to bear
the consequences. If you are implicated, he will definitely help you solve it.
âEven if he doesnât protect you, you can ask Darlene.â He pointed at the ward.
âI heard from Ms. Spence that Darlene and you were high school classmates. In the future, she might be
your bossâ wife. Ms. Emmy, if you have the chance, why donât you use your identity as her classmate to
get along with her? By then, you donât need to worry about yourself!â
âMr. Walpoleâs wife?â Elisaâs eyes immediately lit up. âWhat breaking news! Darlene and I havenât
contacted each other for several years. She is actually in a relationship
with Mr. Walpole?
âBig news! Hurry up and tell me. Iâm going to get the headlines and achieve fame!
As she spoke, she took out the recording pen and notebook that she had brought along with her,
excitedly wanting to write an article.
Aleena also came closer. âWhy didnât I know? They have already become a couple? Darnell, donât you
live at Mr. Walpoleâs place every day? Quick, tell me. How is it going on? Did they kiss or live together?
âItâs fine that she canât divorce Avery as she can just move abroad. When Darlene is cured, she can
change her name and live a loving life abroad. Avery, that scum, is going
to be so angry.â
As she spoke, she saw Dakota, who was standing in front of the nurse station not far
away.
Dakota was negotiating, âTwo months is a bit short. If you really donât let me donate
blood, can you help me and Ms. Garcia do a blood test?
âIf she needs a blood transfusion in the future, I can donate blood to her directly.â
The nurse looked troubled. âMrs. Swale, this is really against the rules.â
Dakota quietly stuffed cash over. It was already nighttime, and there was only a middleâaged nurse on
duty at the nurse station.
âIâll have to trouble you with this. Itâs just a test. This can be considered as my test fee.â
As she spoke, she lowered her voice. âDonât worry. My husband has this hospitalâs shares. Iâm familiar
with it. The surveillance camera canât shoot us from here.â
The nurse pursed her lips. âAlright, itâs a routine test before the blood test. We canât do anything else.
You can just take a look at the result.â
