A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 1 Can’t Live For Half A Year

“The terminal heart failure. Unless you change your heart, it will be difficult to live for half a year.” The doctor’s words still echoed in Darlene Garcia’s

ears.

It was summer, and the continuous rain seemed to never stop.

In the dark bedroom, the wind blew up a thin layer of gauze curtain in front of the floor–to–ceiling window, and the rain soaked the dark leather sofa.

Darlene sat in front of the bed in a daze, shivered, and suddenly came back to

her senses.

It was already dark, and she sat for another afternoon.

Darlene got up, walked over, and closed the window. The moment the rain

fell on her pale arm, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

When she returned to bed, she picked up her pen and signed her name on the divorce agreement. Together with the diagnosis sheet that said “terminal heart failure“, she put them into the drawer.

Since she would die soon, she might as well fulfill their wishes.

“Bang!”

The door was suddenly kicked open, and almost the entire room shook.

A long black shadow broke in, and it seemed to arrive in front of her in an

instant.

“A…” However, just as Darlene said this, she was suddenly lifted, and her entire body was heavily smashed onto the bed.

Avery leaned down and fiercely tore off the nightgown on her. His voice was

fierce as if he wanted to tear her apart, “You vicious slut!”

This was the first sentence he had said to her this week.

Ever since Vivian Sheridan, who had disappeared for three years, returned a week ago, Avery had left this place with a divorce agreement.

There was no light on. In the faint light, she could not see the expression on his face clearly, but Darlene could feel that his eyes, which had always been indifferent, were now filled with ruthlessness.

The sudden pain of her body being torn apart seemed to deepen along with the dull pain in her heart.

Darlene opened her mouth wide and tried her best to breathe heavily, her voice barely audible. “Avery, I am tired. Can you not do this?”
