A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 178 What if It’s True?

By the time Seth rushed over, Darlene was already unconscious.

She had made a scene. By the time Avery finally snatched the knife from her hands, she was already exhausted. When she used the closet door as a support to get up, she

fainted.

Avery brought her upstairs to the bedroom. Just as he placed her down on the bed and brought some warm water from the bathroom, Seth knocked on the door and came in.

When Avery woke up from his coma back then, his face was not as pale as it was now.
