Chapter 56 Severe Consequences
Avery felt it was his illusion and looked at the doctor. âWhat did you say? I want you to check if she is
pregnant. What do you mean it is difficult for her to get pregnant?â
Darlene had an abortion, but it was not rare for women to have abortions. Moreover, when Darlene had
an abortion, the fetus was only two months old. It should be safe.
How could she be infertile just because of one abortion?
The doctor continued to explain carefully, âMr. Gallard, your wifeâs uterus is thin. We told you she might
be infertile after the abortionâ¦â
Before the doctor could finish her sentence, Avery suddenly stood up with bloodshot eyes and threw
Darleneâs medical record on the ground in a rage.
âWho told me? Who told me? If she loses her fertility, your hospital will be fully responsible for it. Do you
think you can shirk your responsibility with just a few words? Where is the director? Call Mr. Hickman
over now!â
Darlene stood up. She did not want to watch Avery make a fool of himself here, so she interrupted him in
a flat tone, âEnough. Letâs go.â
Averyâs face was ashen. He grabbed Darleneâs arm and refused to let her go. âDarlene, it was not my
fault. I did not know the abortion might make you infertile. It was a dereliction of duty in the hospital. If I
had known, I would haveâ¦â
âWhat?â Darlene looked up at him, her eyes full of sarcasm.
Avery spoke again, suddenly feeling a little unconfident, âIf I had known, I definitely
wouldnât have let you have an abortion.â
As soon as he finished speaking, he tried to comfort himself by saying, âDefinitely not.
âAvery, do you need me to remind you again?â Darlene looked at him coldly.
âBefore the abortion, the doctor tried to explain to you with the report, telling you all the possible
consequences. What did you say then?â
Avery didnât know what to say, and he did not even dare to look her in the eye again.
Darlene repeated his words one by one, âI donât care what will happen. Just abort the
child.â

Rare fear touched Averyâs eyes. He had never expected the consequences to be so severe.
He could not afford to face such consequences.
If Darlene could not bear children, how was he going to have offspring? What would
their future be?
Avery could not accept it, and he could not admit he caused Darleneâs infertility.
He shook his head. âNo, they should have told me directly. I just didnât hear it. If I had heard it, I definitely
wouldnât have agreed to it.â
The doctor couldnât take it anymore. She wanted to smash the table and snap at Avery. You pretended
you had nothing to do with it. Now you are playing dumb. Who is the
show for?
However, this was serious. As a doctor, she didnât dare to say much. She had no choice but to call over
Talon and the department director.
Furthermore, she was the one who handled Darleneâs abortion operation. So, she could make things
worse if she tried to talk some sense into Avery. Talon and the department
director had to do it.
When Talon rushed over, Avery was extremely upset. Avery smashed everything in the
doctorâs office.
Avery was still angrily questioning the doctor, âYou were in charge of the abortion. You showed me a
thick pile of documents. Who could have the patience to read them?
âIf you had told me my wife might be infertile after the abortion, how could I have agreed to the
operation? I am just a normal person, so how could I have done it?
Talon carefully dissuaded Avery, âMr. Gallard, please calm down. You are right. The doctor is definitely to
blame for this. I will arrange for her to pack up and scram immediately.â
The female doctor did not expect Talon to make such a hasty decision. She anxiously explained, âSir, I
did explain to him clearly back then.â
Talon coldly stopped her, âJust shut up!â
If Talon didnât find a scapegoat, he would be dismissed from his post.

Averyâs face was ashen. âI donât care if she gets fired. She and all the doctors who were in charge of my
wifeâs abortion had to bear legal and criminal responsibilities. Where is Jax? Tell him to get over here
with the police!â
If this hospital hadnât been the Gallard familyâs property, Avery would have shut it
down.
Even if the patientâs family member signed the operation agreement, could the hospital perform the
surgery just like that?
Talon was very anxious and could only fire the Department of Gynecology and Obstetricsâ director too,
worried he would also be punished himself.
Things were getting worse. Avery lost control of his emotions. Outside the doctorâs office, many medical
staff and patients who passed by looked over.
Many patients and their family members gathered at the door to watch the show.
The female doctor and the department director pleaded for mercy. Darlene coldly went over and grabbed
Averyâs arm. âEnough is enough. Can we go now?â
Avery was still venting his anger in a fierce manner. He did not notice who was pulling him, and he shook
Darleneâs hand off. âIâm telling you, Mr. Hickman. If you canât give me a reasonable explanation for this,
you will be fired, too. And Jax can also get the hell
out of here!â
Avery was furious and threw Darlene out roughly. She tried to push the wall, but her
head still hit its hard surface.
When Avery heard her groan in pain, he reacted. He turned around and saw Darlene had fallen to the
ground.
Avery froze for a moment before he realized what he had done. When he hurried to help
her
up, Darlene stood up and left the office without saying a word.
Avery chased after her. He could not suppress his guilt anymore. He caught up with her and reached out
to grab her hand. âListen to me. It was not what you thinkâ¦â
Slap! Just as his arm touched her body, she turned around and slapped him on the face with red eyes.
Her voice was cold. âWake up, Avery. Not anyone can take the blame for what
you did.â

Avery said incoherently, âI really didnât know. If I had known how serious the consequences would beâ¦
âIt will be fine. Nothing is absolute. There must be a way for you to have a child with a healthy uterus. I
know you like children. I will stay with you in the hospital. Letâs take good care of your body. We will
definitely have children.â
Darlene did not want to look at him anymore. She turned around and continued to walk to the end of the
corridor.
Avery cheekily chased after her and said, âAlright, itâs my fault. I apologize to you. I was too impulsive
back then. And I said horrible things just now.
âPlease, vent your anger on me. How about this? I will bail Nathen out and take you to see your
grandmother.â
Darlene walked to the end of the corridor and stopped.
Avery was somewhat eager to take her hand and walk to the other side. âI will take you there now. I have
brought your grandmother over. I will call the police station now and ask them to release Nathen.â
Darlene did not say anything. Avery called the police station and put the phone on speaker. He said he
would not press charges against Nathen and asked Kael to let him
1. go.
It was close to midnight. After Avery hung up the phone, he took Darlene to the top floor of the inpatient
building.
Darleneâs grandmother was still in the intensive care unit. The doctor explained to them, âBecause she
came from far away from the country, she has suffered. She has to stay in the intensive care unit for
twentyâfour hours. It is better for her to leave it
tomorrow afternoon.â
Avery had promised Darlene, so he did not want to go back on his word. He asked the doctor to show
Darlene the surveillance video of the intensive care unit, which made Darlene temporarily feel relieved.
After Darlene settled in the ward, it was after midnight.
Darlene was exhausted, and it was rare for her to fall asleep so quickly beside Avery.

Avery sat by the bed and rested, but he was not sleepy at all.
Only when it was dawn did he manage to fall asleep.
He was woken up by a nightmare. When he woke up, Darlene was no longer in the bed.
