Chapter 117 An Abrupt Deterioration

Avery said, “Darlene, just this once, I will be more careful.”

Avery could not control his emotions and was anxious to prove that he was different from Gustave.

Darlene did not answer Avery. Her face was pale and her body could not bear it. She could only beg him, “I’m not a tool to vent your anger. I’m really tired. Please go to someone else, and give me a break.”

Avery broke into laughter, and he unconsciously increased his strength. “You don’t
