A Wound that Never Heals Chapter 243

Chapter 243 Sleeping Pills

For nearly a month, it was uneventful.

Darlene was recuperating in the Swale family’s villa. Reina rarely came back from the hospital. And it was hard to see Nigel because he studied in school during the winter break.

In the past, Dakota would occasionally go to the company. Now, she was worried that Darlene was too bored at home and that something would happen to her, so Dakota did not go to the company anymore. She stayed at home all day to keep Darlene company.

Gustave would drop by after he clocked out.

At first, he refused Dakota’s invitation to stay in the Swale’s home.

After a few days, he moved in, treating this place as his own home.

Braylen laughed at him, but in his heart,

Braylen was very happy. After all, during this period, the Swale family and Gustave had signed a lot of cooperation contracts.

Braylen had gained a lot of benefits, so he was very pleased.

The days passed uneventfully and quickly. In the blink of an eye, Darlene was twenty-nine years old. Her body had recovered a lot.

Reina was discharged from the hospital and came to the Swale’s home to celebrate the New Year. Nigel’s school lessons had also ended. The Swale family’s company had released their annual leave. Lucian had decided for the first time that he would not be busy with work for the next few days.

Dakota smiled all day and personally arranged many things for the New Year.

She also thought about holding a banquet to celebrate Darlene’s return to the Swale family and introducing her to the public.

She asked Darlene for her opinion and Darlene agreed immediately.

Dakota thought about it. She found that Darlene agreed to almost everything during this period of time.
