A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 151 How Ruthless

Avery called for the nurse to come in, his face sullen. He did not stay any longer and left with the same expression.

Darlene was still tightly gripping the bed sheets with both hands. Only when she saw him go out did she loosen her grip. She realized that her hands were covered in sweat.

Facing him, she couldn’t really be as calm as she seemed.

Affected by her depression, now that she saw him, she felt like he was terrifying. Those cruel images all emerged in her mind.

The nurse came in and saw that there was nothing wrong with Darlene. Then the nurse

left.

Darlene took her phone over and hesitated about whether she should ask Gustave to come back early. When she turned on her phone, there were all kinds of push notifications sending her news.

The news was all over the media, including “The wife of the Gallard Group’s CEO has an affair“, “The Walpole Group’s CEO becomes the third wheel“, “The Walpole Group’s shares may face significant decline“, “The Gallard Group has unilaterally terminated the important cooperation with the Walpole Group“, “The Walpole Group’s higher–ups might be replaced on a large scale“, and so on.

Countless keywords were on her phone screen. She didn’t want to look at yet when she unlocked her phone, one piece of news went straight to the detail

page.

The content of the news was nasty, and the poster was unknown. Maybe it was posted by some little–known newspaper or magazine.

The news was full of offensive remarks targeting Darlene and the Walpole Group. Although the poster was anonymous, no one would dare to be this unscrupulous without the Gallard Group’s acquiescence and even support.

She wanted to exit the page, yet her hand was out of control, and she kept reading the

news.

Certain photos were attached, including scenes where Darlene and Gustave stood close to each other intimately. Also, there was a photo showing Avery wanting to take Darlene from Gustave, but he was ruthlessly rejected by Gustave.

The shooting angle was perfect. The hand that Avery stretched out froze in mid–air. He looked a bit stunned and helpless, quite pitiful, as if he had been abandoned.

The comment area was full of comments pitying Avery while criticizing Darlene and Gustave at the same time.
