A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 125 Twilight Paradise, 7 PM Tonight

Darlene had just discussed terms with Braylen and said that she would help her get a

divorce.

Now that she saw Avery the moment she came out, she felt a little guilty somehow. Even her voice sounded a little uncomfortable. “I didn’t go anywhere. I just took a breath by the side.”

Avery did not suspect much. This hospital wasn’t big, so Darlene couldn’t really go anywhere.

Avery’s tone softened a little when he thought of how Darlene had lost control of her emotions in front of him not long ago. “Mr. Dawson has already gone to the ward. He’ll talk to you about the treatment plan. Let’s go over first.”

As Avery spoke, he approached Darlene and wanted to hold her. When he got closer, he smelled cigarettes on her body.

His expression immediately darkened. “Didn’t you go somewhere? Darlene, where did you go just now?”

Seeing that she did not answer, Avery continued coldly, “Smoking is not allowed in the hospital. There is no one smoking in this corridor. Where did you get the smell of cigarettes from?”

Darlene just remembered that the space in the fire escape tunnel was stuffy. Braylen seemed to have smoked a lot of cigarettes. He also pulled Darlene’s arm, so it would naturally leave the smell of cigarettes on her.

Darlene could not explain it clearly, so she simply looked at Avery with cold eyes and

played dumb. “How would I know where it came from?”

Avery was speechless for a moment because of Darlene’s words, and he was obviously annoyed. “Darlene, don’t play dumb. I think the truth is that you couldn’t wait and secretly went to Nathen again, right?”

Darlene sneered and said, “You can think whatever you want.”

Avery saw that Darlene was so confident and thought that it was not like there was no one smoking in the corridor. Maybe she had accidentally walked by and got the smell from someone else.
