Chapter 23 Stab Into Avery’s Heart

Avery did not expect Gustave to actually stop him.

In Baltimore, Gustave was famous for his indifference. Moreover, if he remembered correctly, Darlene’s matter was related to Gustave’s uncle, Douglas, so he would not interfere.

Douglas had done many illegal things, and Gustave would turn a blind eye to

it even if it happened right under his nose.

However, Gustave actually helped Darlene.

Avery looked at the man’s shirt that Darlene was wearing and suddenly understood she had easy virtues.

Avery did not want to have a conflict with Gustave. He didn’t intend to fall out with someone who did business with him frequently. Avery would not do something like this that would not make up for the losses.

Avery grabbed Darlene’s wrist and walked out without any explanation.

Because when she escaped from the private room, her body was covered in blood, and she had lost one of her high heels in a hurry.

Right now, she only had a man’s shirt that reached her thighs. When she had just been at the Walpole’s manor, Arthur had felt sorry for her and asked the maid to get her a new shirt.

She was wearing the slippers that the maid had given her.
