A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 204

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.

He hurried over and tried to comfort Avery. “Mr. Gallard, I did it for your own good. So did the elders of the Gallard family. Your condition is still unstable, and you can’t be too emotional. We are worried that you can’t bear that for a while…”

“Get out, all of you!” Avery interrupted him, grabbed the stuff on the bedside table, and smashed them all on the ground.

The nurse who just came in did not even have time to speak before a broken shard was

thrown at her feet. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

The nurse gasped in shock and reflexively took a step back. She said in fear, “What’s the matter, Mr. Gallard? Why don’t I ask the doctor to give you some tranquilizers? Please calm down and have a good rest first.”

She looked at Avery’s exhausted face and thought of how he did not have a good rest when he lost his temper during the day. It was almost dawn. The nurse thought Avery probably did not sleep at all.

After that, she looked at Cyrus, but Avery shouted, “Get lost. None of you are allowed to

come in!”

Cyrus also looked bad. He had guessed who made Avery lose control of his emotions.

up

Cyrus gestured for the nurse to leave first. Then he went to get a broom to clean. the broken shards on the ground. He also took away the fruit knife in the ward and something that might cause danger. Only then did Cyrus leave.

When Cyrus went out, Sandra and Katrina were still standing outside.

Katrina’s face was pale. She obviously had a secret.

However, Sandra did not panic at all. She immediately walked toward Cyrus with concern, “How is it? Are you alright? Why was even the nurse chased out? We have to let

the doctor see him.”

Cyrus sneered. He had always been polite to Sandra on the surface, but this was the first

time he had been so indifferent.

“Mrs. Gallard, you don’t have to pretend to be a good person anymore. Though I’m at housekeeper, don’t blame me for saying harsh words. Although you are not Mr. Avery’s biological mother, he has never made things difficult for you or mistreated you.

“You know Mr. Avery’s situation right now, but you still told him about those things to provoke him. What exactly do you want to do?”

Sandra was a little shocked, but she forced a smile. “Cyrus, what do you mean by that? What did I say to provoke him?”

Cyrus said coldly, “It’s almost dawn. There isn’t even a single person in the corridor.

“Mr. Avery just went out for a while. He should have only met you and Ms. Swale, but he already knew about Ms. Garcia’s heart failure. Mrs. Gallard, do you dare to say that you

and Ms. Swale didn’t tell him about it?”

Sandra’s smile faded. “H–How did Avery know about this?”

Cyrus became a little agitated. He had been by Avery’s side for many years and had always been very protective and concerned about Avery.

Cyrus did not care how Sandra played dumb. He questioned her in a deep voice, “Mrs. Gallard, you know very well how important Ms. Garcia is to Mr. Avery. Her heart failure

will be a big blow to him. What is your purpose…”

Before he finished speaking, Andrew, who was resting on the other floor of the hospital,

rushed over with a gloomy face. “What’s going on?”

Sandra’s father, George Bullock, was also there to curry favor with Andrew and take

care of Avery.

So now, George also came with him.

After Andrew finished speaking, George immediately said, “Is Avery alright? Sandra, you are now Avery’s mother. Why don’t you take good care of him?”

In any case, Sandra was still very guilty and could not say anything for a moment.

Cyrus looked at Sandra sternly and then replied to Andrew, “Mr. Gallard, please ask Sandra. I think she should know better than anyone how Mr. Avery lost his temper and how he suddenly found out about Ms. Garcia’s heart failure.”

Andrew’s face suddenly turned gloomy as he stared coldly at Sandra. “What exactly happened? I’ve told you many times that you can’t tell Avery something, especially Darlene’s heart failure.”

Sandra anxiously said, “Dad, I did not say anything.”

Cyrus was unwilling to give up no matter what. “That’s weird. Mr. Avery just went out for less than ten minutes and only saw Sandra and Ms. Swale. If you didn’t say it, who

else could it be?”

Andrew turned around and glared at Katrina, who was still shivering. He understood everything.

He directly approached and slapped Sandra on the face. His voice was very cold.

“Sandra, you’ve been playing tricks all these years. Given that my son cares about you, and at least, you haven’t hurt my family, I’ve turned a blind eye to what you did.

“But now you harmed my grandson. How dare you? What exactly are you thinking? Or is the Bullock family planning something?
