A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 188 The Night He Died

“In less than five days, when you get divorced, I will get you out of this place.” Gustave’s words were undoubtedly a fuse, igniting the anger and uneasiness that Avery was trying to suppress.

Avery’s face was gloomy. He immediately undid his cufflinks and approached Gustave. “You don’t have the right to interfere with the matters between us. Are you bored with nothing to do all day?”

Gustave smiled, waiting for him to come closer.

Seeing that they were about to fight, the nurse said anxiously, “This is the ward. Please don’t mess around. The patient still needs to rest.”

Gustave felt that this was reasonable. He took off his suit jacket and put it on his arm, walking outside. “Then let’s go out and talk, Mr. Gallard.”

As soon as they went out, they closed the door and started fighting.

Cyrus and the bodyguards were frightened and immediately stepped forward to dissuade them. “Mr. Walpole, Mr. Gallard, what’s wrong? Don’t be like

this.”

Avery glanced at him impatiently. “No one is allowed to interfere. Stay away!”

Darnell was actually more willing to watch the show. It was rare to see Gustave beat someone, so he thought that it was fun.

However, when he saw that the bodyguards and housekeepers had already stepped forward to stop the fight, he also walked over to persuade them half–heartedly, “Mr. Walpole, maybe you guys can have a talk.”

Gustave raised his palm to block Avery’s punch, then swung a punch over with

a calm voice. “It’s fine, and don’t worry about it.”

Darnell immediately nodded and stepped back to watch.

Darlene stayed in the ward, worried that something might happen. When the nurse finished changing the dressing for her, she immediately tried to get out of bed and go out to take a look.

She had never seen Gustave beat anyone before, and she was worried that he would be beaten up by Avery.

After the nurse walked out, Aleena immediately walked in to stop Darlene. “What are you going to do? Avery is already furious! He may hurt you.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Walpole will be fine.”

Darlene’s expression was a little anxious. “Avery will show no mercy.”
