Chapter 7: Chapter 7

Chapter 7 You Are Disgusting

Darlene stepped forward and wanted to take the bank card. Just as she touched Vivian’s hand, Vivian,

who had been arrogant and domineering a moment ago, revealed a panicked and helpless look at this

moment.

Vivian staggered backward and was about to fall down.

Avery rushed over and immediately supported Vivian. He asked, “Are you alright?”

Vivian’s eyes immediately turned red. “Avery, I’m fine. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have made Ms. Garcia

unhappy. I just wanted to help her because she didn’t seem to have enough money, but she seemed to

have

misunderstood.”

Avery looked at Darlene with a cold face. “Explain.”

A moment ago, Avery looked at Vivian with a face full of concern, but the next moment he looked at her,

his eyes were filled with blame and anger.

Darlene had long lost the desire to explain. She had explained so much before, but what she got in

return was Avery punching and kicking her, forcing her to kneel in the heavy rain and to abort the child in

her belly.

Darlene smiled faintly. “If I say that she wanted to snatch the card without any explanation and that she

deliberately fell down, will you believe me?”

Avery said angrily, “Darlene, you were the one who slandered Vivian back then. Now that things have

come to this, you still dare to slander her! Do you think I will believe you?”

Vivian said with a trembling voice, “Avery, don’t be like this. Ms. Garcia was just impulsive. I wanted to

take the money to help Ms. Garcia, but Ms. Garcia

said that my money was dirty and she was unwilling to take it.

“She was right. In those years that I was abroad, even I felt that I was dirty. But how could she say that

you are also…”

As Vivian spoke, she sobbed in a low voice, looking as if she could not bring

herself to speak.

Avery took a few steps over and fiercely grabbed Darlene by the neck. “You were the one who gave

Vivian all the suffering in those years, yet you still have the guts to talk that way about her? Vivian, I’m

here, so there’s no need to be afraid of Darlene. What else did she say to you?”

Vivian said hesitantly, “Ms. Garcia also said… she also said that you are very disgusting to be with me.

Your things are also disgusting, so she wanted to throw this bank card away. I wanted to stop her. Ms.

Garcia accidentally pushed me accidentally.”

As Vivian spoke, she came forward to pull Avery’s sleeve. “Avery, don’t be like this. Ms. Garcia must be

agitated because her brother is sick. She didn’t mean to push me, and she definitely didn’t mean to say

those words.”

Avery suddenly exerted force on the palm of his hand that was grabbing Darlene’s neck and looked

indifferently at her face, which was red from

suffocation.

“Darlene, I warn you. The next time you dare to hurt Vivian, I will send you to Twilight Paradise. I will let

you know what is disgusting!”

As Avery spoke, he sneered again. “But for someone like you, your mind is vicious and you seduce men.

You don’t need to go to Twilight Paradise at all. I’m afraid that you are already disgusting. Even if Vivian

has been hurt, she would be a hundred times better than you. Do you think that I am disgusting being

with her?”

Darlene’s neck was pinched by Avery, and it was extremely difficult for

Darlene to breathe. She wanted to speak, but she could not say a word.

Avery instructed Markus, who had followed over, “Markus, contact the bank and stop all the bank cards I

gave Darlene! Doesn’t she have a lot of backbone? Doesn’t she think that the money I gave her is dirty?

Then let her earn money with her own ability!

Markus answered from the side, “Yes.”

Avery sneered. He was not willing to give Darlene another look. He directly pulled Vivian into his arms

and was about to leave.

Darlene clenched her fists. In the end, she couldn’t be bothered to embarrass herself in front of

everyone, so Darlene called out to stop him.

“I can spare your money, but your bank card also has 20 percent of the Gallard Group shares. It was

given to me by Mrs. Gallard back then.”

Darlene’s voice was a little low. It was clearly the truth, but she still said it without confidence, “You

should return that money to me.”

Avery stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at Darlene sternly. “Darlene, you have indeed

revealed your true colors. Back then, when my grandmother gave you money and shares, didn’t you say

that you didn’t want them? Didn’t you say that you didn’t want money?

“You let my grandmother adopt you for the sake of money. You entered the Gallard family when you were

twelve years old. You had this thought in your heart, which was why you put in so much effort to curry

favor with my grandmother, right?”

Darlene avoided Avery’s gaze. “No matter what, the shares were given to me by Mrs. Gallard. They

should be mine.”

Darlene had to have money in her hands. Nigel needed treatment, and she

needed to spend money to find Reina.

As for finding a job, Avery had even taken away Darlene’s ID, so how was she going to find one?

Avery sneered as he approached Darlene step by step. “Darlene, do you need me to help you recall?

Two months ago, my grandmother passed away. You signed off all the shares my grandmother left for

you to me. Now that things have come to this, what right do you have to say that the shares are yours?”

Darlene looked at Avery. She looked at him for a long time and suddenly laughed in a low voice. “You are

right. How could I forget? I have given you everything I have without reservation.”

Darlene gave all her money and feelings to Avery. She once thought Avery

could be trusted with all her heart.

But now Avery told Darlene not to forget that she had given all her things to

him.

Avery frowned. For some reason, he felt that Darlene’s smile was a little dazzling. He turned around and

left with Vivian in his arms.

Darlene supported herself on the wall beside her. She felt a buzzing sound in

her mind. Darlene’s heart hurt, and she could not tell if it was because she

was sick.

Darlene had no time to be sad or disappointed. Nigel was still in the

emergency room, waiting for her to pay the full fee.

Darlene rushed into the elevator, went upstairs, and went to find Nathen again.

Darlene had no one to ask for help. Nathen was only Nigel’s attending

physician and had no obligation to help Darlene or Nigel, but she was at her

wit’s end now.

After passing through the long corridor and walking towards the emergency room, Darlene did not know

when she had shed tears.

She didn’t raise her hand to feel that her eyes were wet until she almost bumped into Nathen and looked

at him, who stared at her eyes strangely.

Darlene awkwardly wiped away her tears and said in a hoarse voice, “Dr. Elicott, can you … lend me

some money? I can’t pay for Nigel’s medical expenses at the moment.”

Seeing Darlene like this, Nathen thought that something big had happened to her. Hearing this, he

breathed a sigh of relief. “I thought there was something wrong. I just paid the money for you. Don’t

worry. Just wait outside the emergency room for your brother to come out.”

Darlene cleared her throat and felt sorry. “Thank you, Dr. Elicott. Don’t worry. I will pay you back as soon

as possible.”

Nathen accompanied Darlene to sit outside the emergency room for a while and asked her, “It’s not

much money. You don’t have to take it to heart. Why are you crying?”

Darlene shook her head. “I’m fine. Maybe I ran too fast.”

Nathen remembered the man he saw downstairs in the hospital. He seemed to be Darlene’s husband,

but it seemed that he had a bad attitude toward

Darlene.

Nathen didn’t ask too much. He raised his hand and patted Darlene’s arm through her sleeve. “Don’t

worry. Everything will get better. I’m helping you find suitable hearts for you and your brother.”

Darlene looked at Nathen gratefu, Dr. Elicott, I have to trouble you to help

my brother change his heart. My… No need.”

Nathen said in a deep voice, “What are you saying? Although heart failure is serious, it is still possible to

change the heart. The most important thing is to live. You can’t have such a negative idea.”

A nurse came to call Nathen to the office. Darlene did not say much, and only said, “Thank you.”

When Nigel left the emergency room and stabilized, Darlene rushed back to Southwood Villa before six

in the afternoon.

Reina was still in Avery’s hands, and Darlene did not dare to go against him completely.

When Darlene went back, Vivian was sitting on the sofa in the living room, leisurely drinking tea.

Darlene did not want to have any more conflicts with Vivian. Darlene told the new maid that she had

eaten dinner and went upstairs.

Vivian stood up and stopped Darlene. Vivian smiled and said, “Don’t rush up. When Avery comes back,

there will be a good show waiting for you. Guess what interesting photos I let Avery see?”

“Get out of the way,” Darlene said coldly.

Just as Darlene finished speaking, footsteps came from the entrance of the

entrance.

Vivian stopped Darlene and immediately grabbed a cup of hot tea from the coffee table, pouring it on her

body.

Avery came in quickly, and Vivian was still holding the cup of tea in her

hand, not having the time to put it down…
