A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 122

Chapter 122 I’ll Give You Everything

Avery saw that Darlene was too anxious and wanted to get out of bed, so he walked over to stop her. “You just woke up, so you have to rest well first. Your grandmother has been transferred to the ward. Don’t worry.”

Avery said it lightly, but his gaze was obviously avoiding Darlene. Apparently, things were not as simple as he said.

Nigel, who was at the side, also fell silent. His eyes were red, but he came over to persuade Darlene to lie down for a while.

Darlene grabbed onto the blanket tightly, and that bad premonition immediately

surged up.

Darlene’s voice was slightly trembling as she stared at Avery. “What happened to my grandmother? Tell me, I’m fine. I can accept anything.”

Avery did not have the confidence to look at her. He took a glass of warm water from the bedside table and handed it to her. “You’ve been in a coma for so long. Are you thirsty? Have some water first. Since your grandmother has already left the emergency room, I’ll have someone take care of her there. Don’t worry, she’ll be fine.”

Fear appeared in Darlene’s eyes. She directly reached out and removed the needle on the back of her hand. She pushed Avery and got off the bed. Then, she put on her slippers and wanted to go out. “I don’t believe it. I need to take a look myself.” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Avery quickly caught up to Darlene and grabbed her arm. “Calm down, you need to rest. Your grandmother also needs to rest. The doctor is taking care of your grandmother. You will only cause

trouble if you go over.”

Avery’s hand was forcefully flung away by Darlene, and her emotions were clearly out of control. “Avery, I have already stayed here as you wished. I just want to see my

grandmother. Why don’t you let me go?”

The needle on the back of her hand had just been pulled out, and there was blood

flowing out.

Avery glanced at her, and his hand had already been flung away by her. Darlene hurriedly stepped out of the ward, and Nigel immediately followed.

When Darlene went over, Reina had already been placed in the ICU. Reina’s body was

covered with tubes and instruments, and her face was deathly pale.

The doctor standing by the bedside checked Reina’s heart rate. The doctor did not notice. Darlene at the door but instructed the nurse at the side.

“You must be careful to take care of the vegetative patient. Even if the patient is unconscious, you must do more massage therapy and talk to her. It is possible to slowly restore the patient’s consciousness. If she is lucky, she may come to.”

Darlene had just pushed open the door, but before she could enter, she heard the voice inside and stumbled.

A vegetative patient? My grandmother became a vegetative patient?

Darlene did not have the strength to walk into the room, and the voice inside continued to spread.

The nurse asked, “Doctor, how long will it take for the old lady to come round in this situation?”

The doctor sighed, “At this age, her physical recovery ability is very poor. If she is lucky, she can come round in a few months or a few years. If she is unlucky… she may never regain consciousness.”

There were many cases like this in the hospital. When old people were suddenly injured or stimulated, their high blood pressure would cause brain damage, and they could be unconscious or even paralyzed to death.

Some family members were unable to bear the high medical expenses, plus they couldn’t see any hope after a few years, they would have to give up the treatment.

Darlene almost fainted. When her body was about to fall down, Nigel rushed over and supported her. “Darlene, it’s all my fault. Reina’s suffering is all my fault.”

Darlene’s line of sight was a little dazed as she staggered in.

The doctor saw them suddenly come in and immediately fell silent.

Darlene’s voice was hoarse. “I heard what the doctor had said. My grandmother can’t come round, right?”

The doctor saw that Darlene’s complexion was very bad, and he had just been seriously ill, so he immediately changed his words to comfort Darlene. “Ms. Garcia, your

grandmother is old, and it is already fortunate that she was able to come back to life.

“You should think more about things in a good way. Although your grandmother has temporarily lost her ability to take care of herself, as long as your family takes good care of her, she will definitely be able to recover as soon as possible. Take it as a rest for a period of time for your grandmother.”

When Avery rushed over and saw the situation inside, he knew that Darlene already knew everything.

The doctor explained somewhat uneasily, “I’m sorry, Mr. Gallard, I didn’t expect Ms.

Garcia to come here directly.”

Since Darlene had already come, regardless of whether the doctor had said those words. or not, it was obvious that the matter could no longer be concealed,

Avery did not speak. The doctor brought the nurse out first.

Darlene sat down by the bed in a daze. She reached out to grab Reina’s cold hand and softly called out “Reina“.

For so many years, Reina had been seriously ill, but at least she had never been to this

extent.

At this age, Reina had become a vegetative patient and survived by relying on tubes and drugs. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was living a life worse than death.

Darlene’s hands trembled violently and her face was pressed against the back of Reina’s

hand.

In the end, Nigel was still young. After enduring for so long, he still cried in a low voice.

I am to be blamed for grandma’s suffering, but I didn’t know that she had returned. I thought that Darlene knew that I was with Dr. Elicott.

Dr. Elicott told me that he had already told Darlene.

Nigel’s voice was choked with sobs. “Darlene, it’s all my fault.”

Darlene’s eyes were extremely red. She stood up and pulled Nigel to her side. “It’s fine. You still have me. Let’s take good care of Reina together. She will definitely come to.”

Darlene felt extremely uncomfortable. That hatred and reluctance stirred in her heart,

along with the regret that she felt for her grandmother and brother.

If not for the matter between Darlene and Avery, Nigel and Reina should be able to live at

better life.

Darlene stayed by the bed for a period of time until it was almost noon. Nigel was very tired and fell asleep on the side of the bed.

Darlene

got up and planned to go out to buy lunch for Nigel. When she turned around to go out, she noticed that Avery was always behind her.

Avery

did not say anything and just stood behind her.

Darlene bypassed Avery and left the ward. When Avery followed her out, she turned around with hatred in her eyes. “Is this enough? Avery, are you satisfied with this

result?”

Darlene’s eyes were red, but she smiled and said, “There is no better result than this. My grandmother has become a vegetative patient. You don’t have to worry that I can secretly take her away.

“She truly became a bargaining chip in your hands now. You can finally be at ease since

she can’t leave or move.”

Darlene clenched her fists so tightly that the blood on the back of her hand, which had already stopped bleeding, began to crack and bleed again.

Avery said in a deep voice, “It has already happened. Calm down.”

Darlene’s body trembled violently, and her laughter grew louder and louder. “It has already happened. Yes, it has already happened. Isn’t this what you expected? You have so many bodyguards. How could you really let Reina go out of your sight?

“You have such a wonderful driver. How could he really not be able to catch up with the woman wearing a mask and sunglasses?

“Avery, this scene is not good at all. In any case, you are so capable that you have made my grandmother become vegetative. There is no need to make so many twists and

turns.”

“Aren’t you just trying to teach me a lesson so that I can understand the consequences of taking my grandmother away without permission?” Darlene said in a trembling

voice.

“My grandmother is paralyzed. I can’t take her away anymore. I’m scared. I’m really scared. I won’t run anymore. Can you ask the doctor to cure my grandmother?”

Avery’s face was tense. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

Darlene walked over. Her eyes were frighteningly red. She suddenly raised her hand. Just

when Avery thought that she was going to slap him, she hurriedly pulled off the tie

around his neck.

Darlene held the tie and circled it around her wrists several times before using her fingers and teeth to tie the tie into a dead knot.

Strange gazes shot over from the corridor. Darlene seemed to be completely unaware of it. She extended her hand in front of Avery and asked, “Is this okay? Is that enough?

“Lock me up. I promise you that I will never come out again. Please let my grandmother and brother go and let my grandmother come round. Avery, I won’t leave. Please let my grandmother go.”

Avery’s face turned ashen as he roughly pulled her arm over. “Are you crazy?”

Avery wanted to untie the tie around her hand, but his hand was shaking violently.

Avery was afraid of Darlene like this, and his heart was filled with extreme fear.

Darlene’s eyes were red and dead. When Avery pulled her hand over, she directly knelt down in front of him. “I beg you, let my grandmother and brother go.

“I only have two relatives. Don’t force them to death. I will give my life to you. What do you want? I will give it to you, okay?”
