A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 197 Could You Go and See Him?

In a drowsy sleep, Darlene felt something approaching and that kind of feeling made her feel a little suffocated.

Darlene tilted her head vaguely toward the window, shrank to pull the covers

closer together, and lifted her hand to grab them, only to find a coat cuff.

The sudden realization of this fact caused Darlene’s drowsiness to dissipate

and she almost sat up straight.

Darlene was worried that she might accidentally fall back into Avery’s hands

again.

The strange sensations around her stiffened Darlene. She got up in a hurry, opened her eyes, and met the eyes of Nathen, who was pulling himself away

from her in a hurry.

Darlene always had this feeling. Sometimes, when she suddenly woke up and saw Nathen in front of her, the man she saw seemed to be different from the
