thrown down. In the end, even the bed sheets that she had slept in were all
thrown down.
Mary raised her head in disbelief and met Avery’s deathly gaze. “Pack
everything up and throw them away. After that, find Cyrus to receive your
salary and leave.”
Mary said carefully, “Mr. Gallard, Ms. Sheridan has already been given a notice of critical illness by the hospital. She is still in the
emergency room. She only has you to rely on.”
Avery took a deep look at her, and without saying a word, he returned to the
master’s bedroom.
He placed Darlene on the bed, closed the curtains, and closed the windows tightly. However, he felt the sound of rain getting
louder and louder.
In the end, he realized that it was not the sound of rain. His mind was like a
clock at the entrance of the temple. It was knocked heavily without an end.
Avery didn’t turn on the light in the bedroom. In the dim light, he could not
see Darlene’s deathly pale face. He could only vaguely see her lying there as
if she was asleep.
The bedroom was deathly silent. Avery could hear his heavy breathing. He imagined that it was Darlene’s breathing on the bed.
Avery thought, Darlene is still alive. She is sleeping soundly and her

breathing is steady.
He sat on the sofa and hid in the dark. It was as if he was back two years ago
when he was in a wheelchair.
At that time, in this bedroom, Darlene brought him warm water to soak his
feet. The water temperature was just right and Darlene added a medicine bag

to the water.
Darlene crouched in front of Avery and said as she washed his fet, “Thave to
gon a business tip tomorrow. I know that you are not used to being taken
care of by others. Don’t worry, will be back two days later and I have picked
the best muse totake care of you.

When Avery had a bad temper, he kicked the water from the basin on her
body and smashed the knife and fork on her face.
However, Darlene never complained. After that the secretly wiped her tears

and looked at him with a smile. “I don’t blame you. If I were paralyzed and
sat in the wheelchair for a year or so, my temper would be worse than
yours.”
Avery remembered so many things in the past. In the past, he always

thought that when he could stand, he would not let Darlene suffer anymore.
But he forgot everything when Vivian came back.
He even almost forced Darlene to death.
Avery bent over and rolled up his trousers.
His legs had already recovered, but there was a deep scar on his calves that extended all the way to his knees. It didn’t
disappear for so many years and
was clearly visible.
Avery remembered that he was sitting in a wheelchair at that time, and every
time Darlene saw this scar, she would feel extremely distressed.
Avery thought, was it because my legs were healed that something changed
between us, so Darlene left?
Avery opened the drawer under the coffee table with shaking hands and took
out a fruit knife from it.
Avery suddenly thought of something. He got up in a hurry and moved the
wheelchair that he had been sitting in before over.
Avery thought, if I can’t walk and need to sit in the wheelchair now, then
Darlene will return.
When Avery thought of this, without any hesitation, he stabbed the fruit
knife deep into that scar.

The scar was scratched, and bright red blood quickly slid down along his leg, dripping onto the beige–colored carpet.
Avery felt that this kind of injury was not serious enough.
He continued to press the knife down, pushing it inward until there was an increasingly large pool of blood left on the ground.
Even the carpet could not
be absorbed and the blood floated on the messy carpet.
The dizziness after losing too much blood began to hit Avery. He was satisfied. His body was tightened and he struggled to
support the armrest of
the wheelchair, letting him sit in it.
Avery pushed the wheelchair to the side of the bed and grabbed Darlene’s‘ hand with his shaking hands. “My leg is injured. I
need you to take care of
me.”
The phone that he had left on the bedside table began to ring. It was Vivian
calling him over and over again.
Avery remembered something and reached out to take the phone. He pressed
the answer button and used a speakerphone.
On the other side of the phone, Vivian said anxiously, “Avery, I am outside your home. I am very worried about you. Can you let
me come in and take a
look at you...”
Before she finished her words, Avery grabbed Darlene’s hand and interrupted Vivian. “Let’s split up. We are not suitable.”
Vivian had never expected that Avery could be so heartless one day.

She tightened her grip on her phone. She still wanted to say something, but
Avery had already hung up.

Avery leaned over to Darlene. “There is no one else here. I have driven them
away. In the future, there will only be the two of us here. It will be the same
as before.”
A bone–piercing pain surged from his legs. Avery said hoarsely, “Darlene, you can’t be so cruel. You should at least look at me
again.”
Blood dyed a large carpet red.
Avery was in a coma. With a bang, he fell to the ground with his wheelchair.
The bedroom fell into silence. When the phone screen lit up, a text message popped up. “Mr. Gallard, Ms. Sheridan went to the
hospital rooftop and wanted to jump!”
