A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 172 Did I Quarrel With Darlene?

Nigel could not hide the anxiety on his face. “Where my sister is has nothing to do with you. Please leave quickly. My grandmother needs to rest. If you stay here, I can only call the doctor to drive you away.”

Avery felt that the hostility Nigel showed was a little strange. Even if Nigel was in his youth, Avery was his brother–in–law. So, Nigel should not be so disgusted with him.

What Nigel showed was not only great resistance to Avery but also fear.

Avery took a step back. “Alright, let’s go out and talk. I only want to ask you about your sister’s current situation. Moreover, your grandmother is still in a coma. There is no one else to take care of you. It is not safe for you to stay here alone.”

Nigel’s face was full of disgust. “Please leave. I want to stay here and take care of my grandmother. I don’t need anyone to take care of me.”

Avery nodded and sat down on the chair beside Nigel. “Alright, then I will stay here with you. You are a minor, and there are many people in the hospital. You need a guardian beside you. Your sister is not around, so I have to take good care of you for her.”

Nigel clenched his hands tightly. In the end, he could no longer hold it back. “Get out of here. My grandmother and I don’t need any of you to take care of us! Don’t play dumb.

You are…”

Before he finished, Andrew interrupted him. “Nigel, even if you are young, you

shouldn’t be too rude.”

“Avery and the Gallard family paid your grandmother’s medical expenses and will take care of her. No matter how rebellious you are, you should know what’s good for you.”

Avery and Nigel didn’t understand what Andrew said in the same way.

After what happened to Avery, he forgot many things. If Andrew wanted to make a move

on Reina, he could find an opportunity.

If Nigel spoke rashly without any consideration, the Gallard family would not be

soft–hearted.

Avery sat in front of Nigel with his back facing the hospital bed. When he heard Andrew reprimand Nigel, he said indifferently, “Grandpa, you don’t have to worry too much.

about the matters here. All of you can leave first. I will return to the ward very soon.”

As Avery spoke, Darlene, who was on the bed, was on the verge of suffocating. She finally could not hold it in any longer and stretched her hand to the top of her head, propping up the blanket a little.
