A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 199

Chapter 199 17 thousand dollars for One Night

Approaching footsteps sounded inside the door. Darnell walked over. When he heard that Gustave had gone out, he was worried, so he came over to take a

look.

Darnell drank a little less than Gustave. After Darlene left, Darnell went back to the bedroom and lay down for a while. He was almost sober.

When he arrived at the door, Darnell looked at Gustave, who had blocked Darlene by the door. Immediately, it was as if Darnell saw nothing, his gaze naturally drifted away from them. Then, Darnell looked at the sky, turned around, and walked straight inside.

Darlene called out to him anxiously, “Darnell, come over and help me. He

drank too much.”

Darnell stood inside and hesitated. He thought about Darlene’s current physical condition. If Gustave really drank too much and did something to her, it would be inappropriate.

Darnell didn’t know whether Gustave had really drunk too much or was just pretending to be drunk.

In the end, Darnell turned around and walked out. He looked at Darlene and smiled awkwardly, “Ms. Garcia, you’re back. Mr. Walpole, you’re here too. I’ve been looking around for him for a long time.”

Darlene waited for him to finish lying and then said anxiously, “Pull him away first and help him to the bedroom. I’ll go buy him some hangover medicine.”

Darnell didn’t think about it and immediately replied, “No need, Ms. Garcia. It’s not safe for you to go out in the middle of the night. There’s hangover medicine in the bedroom. I’ll just get it for Mr. Walpole.”

Darlene was stunned for a moment. “Really?”

“Yes.” Darnell’s expression was extremely confident.

As if to prove that he did not lie, Darnell said, “I just took it. Otherwise, I would not have sobered up so quickly.”

Darlene really wanted to ask him, “Then why didn’t you let Gustave take it?”

Thinking that it was too late to say so, she did not speak again.
