A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 204 Get Out!

Cyrus helped Avery back to the ward and called the police station. After telling them not to send someone over, Cyrus still felt uneasy.

He felt that it was a little strange. “Mr. Gallard, what did Mrs. Gallard and Ms. Swale say to you just now? Why did you ask the police not to come after calling them?

“I have told the police that there are clues about Mrs. Garcia’s accident. I am afraid that they will still be suspicious.”

Cyrus didn’t believe that Avery would ask him to call the police for no reason. When Avery called him, he seemed not unconscious.

But now, Avery seemed to have changed his mind for some reason and chose to hide something instead of calling the police.

Cyrus asked a few more questions, but Avery acted as if he did not hear Cyrus at all. After a long while, Avery looked at him and asked, “Cyrus, why did you hide such a big thing from me?

“When was Darlene’s heart failure found out? And how serious? How long can she hold on before the heart transplant is carried out?”

Cyrus was completely stunned. He had never expected that Avery would suddenly know

about it.

It was no wonder he saw Avery’s face turn very gloomy. Avery seemed to have lost his soul, gazing into space. It could tell that he was depressed and helpless.

Cyrus‘ heart suddenly skipped a beat. He panicked and said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Gallard, how could it be? Who told you the wrong news?”

Avery clenched his fists and supported himself on the bed. Due to great anger and fear, the vein on his forehead started to pulse.

“Cyrus, you still wanted to lie to me. If you keep it from me like this, who can bring Darlene back to me if she dies?”

Avery was too agitated, and he coughed violently when he finished speaking.

Cyrus was so scared and didn’t know what to do. He thought that it must be Sandra and Katrina who had told Avery. At that moment, Cyrus could no longer hide it.
