A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 226 Time for You to Pay the Price

Dakota grasped Darlene's hand tightly. Her eyes were extremely red, and when she heard Tim, she said in a cold voice, "Ask him to leave."

Darlene had found her real family. She would be very disappointed if the Swale family could not reject Avery for her.

If the Swale family could not protect her, she would have nowhere to shelter.

When Dakota thought of this, she said coldly, "Not only today. Tell him that the Swale family does not welcome him anymore. He does not need to worry about anything about my daughter."

If it weren't for Avery, Darlene's heart would not have failed to that state, and she wouldn't have had to face such immense guilt and self-blame that he could not bear at all after she got a new heart.

Therefore, it could be said that even if Darlene had successfully got the heart, she might not be able to live.

Outside, Tim was silent for a moment, but he still spoke out the words that Avery had asked him to pass on, "Mr. Gallard told me to inform you that he has brought someone with him.

Someone who did Ms. Garcia wrong. He hoped to apologize to Ms. Garcia for covering up for that person. And he wants to let Ms. Garcia know that that person had suffered consequences."

Dakota looked at Darlene's pale face, and her tone became impatient, "Enough, Tim. No matter what reasons he has, I do not want that man to appear in front of my daughter again, especially before my daughter wakes up.

"Before my daughter survives the period of rejection, I do not want to see any other outsiders. I do not want to hear anything else."

Other than Darlene's situation, the only thing Dakota cared about was whether the heart in Darlene's body belonged to Nathen or not.

She just hoped that the answer was no.
