Chapter 69 He Is Afraid
The reporters wanted to ask Avery more, but Cyrus rushed in from outside the hotel and called for the
hotel security guards to stop the reporters who were chasing after them.
âSorry, I wonât accept any interviews.â
The reportersâ attention was all on Avery. Vivian took advantage of the timing to rush
out of the hotel.
Avery had already gotten into the car, and it was obvious that he did not have the
slightest intention of helping Vivian get away.
When the reporters saw Averyâs car leave, they immediately turned around and surrounded Vivian again.
In the hotel just now, the security guards would help drive away the reporters, but
outside the hotel, nobody planned to help Vivian.
The reporters crazily surrounded Vivian with their cameras 360 degrees around, leaving no blind spots,
and their questions were tricky and unpleasant.
Some reporters directly started live broadcasting on the spot. In less than half an hour, the topic âNew
popular actress Vivian meeting a man in the hotel and being caught by the manâs wifeâ quickly became
popular on various social media.
Avery sat in the back seat. Cyrus felt that the atmosphere was a little too heavy. As he drove, he turned
on the radio. When Avery was not working during a ride, he would listen to the finance radio occasionally.
But as soon as the radio was turned on, a female reporterâs excited voice sounded, âWe are now at
Crown International Hotel. We can see that the scene is already overcrowded. The lady in front of me
wearing a mask and sunglasses isâ¦â
Cyrus immediately turned off the radio. He glanced at the rearview mirror, but Avery did not react. It
seemed that he was thinking about something else.
Vivianâs affair with Jax was a certainty.
That was not very important to Avery, but if they had been together for many years, then the photo taken
in the airport back then would probably be the two of them.
Thinking about it carefully, Vivian had left with Jax back then, which meant that all her

accusations against Darlene from the beginning to the end might all be completely
false.
Vivian lied to Avery. She lied to him, and let him torture his wife who had taken care of
him for so many years until now.
Averyâs hands, which were hanging by his side, gripped the edge of the seat tightly. For some reason, he
felt hot. His guilty conscience and powerlessness brought him sudden hot and choking feelings.
He opened the window. The wind in the middle of the fall night was so cold that it
started to hurt his face.
Avery suddenly did not know how he should face Darlene now.
Many lies were slowly being uncovered, and the truths were about to appear in front of
him.
However, he was afraid and did not dare to investigate deeper. He did not dare to
remove another layer of the veil that covered the ugly truth.
The knife that cut into the skin, every malicious word that stabbed into the heart, the
life of an unborn baby, and the life of a twelve-year-old boyâ¦
A broken mirror couldnât return to its original state. Avery was clear that even if he
knew he was wrong, he would not be able to make up for it.
The car stopped outside the hospital. Cyrus turned around and said, âSir, weâve arrived
at the hospital.â
Avery did not dare to get out of the car. He had never been someone who would run away, but at that
moment, he was truly afraid.
He reached out to the car door but did not push it open. He said, âYou go first. I will sit
here for a while.â
Cyrus nodded. He pushed open the car door and went not far away.
Avery took out a cigarette and lit it. He looked at his palm and found that it was trembling.
He held the cigarette between his fingers and stretched out the window. That little bit of light flickered in
the dim night, and there was no one outside the hospital.
Get Boyt
Avery rested his arm on the car door in a daze. He only came back to his senses when the
cigarette had burned his fingertips.
In the end, he got out of the car. When he entered the hospital elevator, he thought to himself that
Darlene would eventually forgive him.
He thought, I let her down so many times these years. Didnât she always act as if nothing had
happened?
At most, this time, Iâll apologize and compensate her more. She has loved me for so many years. Sheâll
forgive me.
When he reached ICU, he heard the sound of a television broadcast coming from inside
the ward.
Averyâs heart tightened, and he immediately pushed open the door and rushed in.
Darlene, who was on the bed, had already woken up. A servant was standing by her side, and she was
sitting on the bed watching TV. On the TV was Vivian.
Avery felt extremely guilty. When he heard the voice on the television, he did not dare to turn back to
look. He only walked towards Darlene. âYouâre awake. Donât watch television. Take a rest first. Do you
want to eat something? I will bring it over for you.â
Darlene took the remote control and turned off the television. She took her phone and flipped through it
as if she did not hear Averyâs voice.
Avery brought a glass of warm water over. âDid you drink any water after waking up? Youâve been
unconscious for so long. Have more water.
Darlene looked at the glass that Avery handed over and then looked at him. Her voice was a little
sarcastic. âIâm not thirsty. Thank you.â
The servant at the side sensed the awkward atmosphere and immediately got up. âSir, I
will leave first.â
Avery did not say a word and sat down by Darleneâs bedside.
The servant left the ward and closed the door.
In front of outsiders, Avery was still unwilling to condescend.
Now that there were only the two of them, his attitude immediately lowered. He

reached out to hold Darleneâs hand. âDarlene, Iâve found out something. Perhaps I was reallyâ¦â
Darlene took back her hand that was about to be held by Avery and looked at him with amusement.
âAvery, donât tell me that you guessed the truth at this time and want to repent.â
Avery was very guilty. He was not confident when he looked at Darlene. âI will
investigate it. No matter what, I was the one who did wrong before. You can have whatever you want. I
will make it up to you.
âWhen I find out the truth, if Vivian really framed you, I will make her pay the price.â
Avery added urgently, âBelieve me once. If Vivian really framed you, I will definitely make her pay double
for everything you have suffered.â
Darlene placed the phone to the side. âAlright, everything I want? Let me go. Then we can settle our
grudges. Avery, I donât need the truth. I donât want anything.â
Averyâs expression darkened slightly. âI canât let you go. Anything else is OK.â
âOther than that, what else can you give me?â Darlene looked at him as if she had heard
a joke.
âYou want to tell me that you are sorry for killing my baby and my younger brother? And you are sorry for
beating me, sending me to an asylum then prison? And you are sorry that you were blinded?â
Darlene sneered, âAvery, please, donât disgust others, and donât disgust yourself. Youâll be responsible
for what youâve done. Let me go. It is good for everyone.â
