A Wound that Never Heals Chapter 257

Chapter 257 Avery Comes

It was not easy for Braylen to replace Darlene.

How did he bear to let Dakota and Lucian be anxious at home?

Moreover, Dakota had been too worried after she lost her daughter in the past. Her health had beenpoor all these years, so this kind of blow was almost unbearable for her.

However, Braylen did not want to force Darlene to go back. He eagerly took out a single-page leafletfrom his suit pocket.

Braylen had been bringing Nathen’s medical report and the notice of Darlene’s missing with him thesedays.

He spread out the leaflet and handed it to Darlene. “Is it because of Dr. Elicott? We are all mistaken.Dr. Elicott is still alive. You did not take up others’ lives or let anyone down.

“Your heart is not Nathen’s. It belonged to a terminal cancer patient. The heart transplant surgery wasonly carried out after the patient passed away.”

Afraid that Darlene would not believe him,

Braylen put the leaflet closer to her. Then he entered the link on his mobile phone and opened thevideo of Nathen walking into the abandoned warehouse.

“Look, he is fine. He returned to the Elicott’s home and continued working in the hospital in Baltimore. Ifyou don’t believe me, I will take you to see him now.”

Darlene said softly, “I know.”

Callie finally recovered from her shock. She finally understood a fact. The woman in front of her wasDakota and Lucian’s only daughter who had been lost for more than twenty years.

She was also Braylen’s only sister.

Callie explained, “I picked up this leaflet at the entrance of the villa. I felt that the name was a littlefamiliar, so I brought it back.

“In the middle of the night, this young lady vaguely recited the name again, saying that she was sorryfor this man. Only then did I remember that I had heard the name a few times from her mouth.

“I read the contents of the leaflet to her a few times. She had been unconscious for so many days, butshe actually woke up after listening to it.”

Callie still felt a little scared, “She has been getting worse and worse these days.

“If I weren’t worried that she was dropped into the sea by her enemies and they would replace her again if Isent her out, I wouldn’t dare to keep her here.

“Isn’t this how the movie shows? A weak woman has provoked a vicious and desperate criminal…”

Sean interrupted her. “Ms. Kellam, you should watch less of some unrealistic suspense and policemovies.”

Callie chuckled. “In short, that’s everything I know. Mr. Swale, since she is your biological sister, youowe me a big favor.

“Take her home with you. I have a press conference and a lot of other things to deal with these days.To take care of her, I have put off a lot of things.”

Braylen breathed a sigh of relief and comforted Darlene, “It’s good that you know. Don’t feel like youowe anyone. Dad and Mom are waiting for you at home. Let’s go back.”

Braylen got up and thought about how to take Darlene away. She was seriously injured now. Braylendidn’t know if he could carry her out in his arms.

When he reached out to check on Darlene’s injury, Darlene dodged.

She said in a hollow voice, “I won’t go back. With my current situation, I probably won’t live for long. If Igo back now, I will only make them sad and desperate again.”

It wasn’t easy for them to get their daughter back. But not long after, they would face their daughter’sdeath again.

Darlene thought it would be better for them to just assume that she died in the sea.

Braylen found it hard to believe, “It’s impossible. I will take you back and replace the best doctor for you. Aslong as you still have a breath left, I promise that you will be completely fine one day. There will be nomore accidents.”

Darlene looked at Sean, who had been silent the whole time. Then Sean said seriously,

“Ms. Garcia’s situation is not very optimistic at the moment.

“Her lungs are seriously filled with water.

Her respiratory tract has been seriously infected. Her stomach and other internal organs are deeplywounded. There are also injuries in her skull.

“Any of these problems is close to fatal. Sir, you and your family may have to be mentally prepared.”

Braylen felt like he had fallen from the clouds to the bottom of the valley again. He could not accept thisfact. “No, it can always be cured. It can’t be so serious.”

Callie says lightly, “Braylen, Dr. Cannon won’t lie to you. I think your sister’s words make sense. Lettingher rest for a while before going back may be a more suitable choice.”

Braylen sat back on the bedside and didn’t say anything.

He chose to respect Darlene. “Okay, if you don’t want to go back now, I will replace a good place and adoctor for you to recuperate.

“Remember that you don’t owe Dr. Elicott your life. You can live with ease. Survive this, and everythingwill be fine.”

Darlene nodded and smiled. “Okay, I know.”

Nathen was still alive. That was a huge surprise for her.

If her injuries could be healed and she could live, she would be more than happy.

She had gotten rid of the man she wanted to see the least. She had family and a new life. She did notowe anybody anything that she could not repay. How could she not want to live well?

Callie saw that Braylen was hesitating, so she continued to say, “If you trust me, you can continue tostay with me. I have many rooms here, so you can stay with us.”

Sean looked at her with displeasure.

She was quite bold to leave a man here.

Braylen didn’t want to trouble her again.

“No need. I’ll take her away. Thank you so much for taking care of her these days, Ms. Kellam.”

Callie smiled. “Well, why don’t you do something to thank me? Why don’t you just sign the contract withme?”

She had talked to Braylen about this several times before. Braylen was very mean and did not agree tosign.

He said this contract was important, so he had to think about it more.

But now, Braylen immediately agreed. “Okay, no problem. I will ask my assistant to send you thecontract later. If you have any other requests, just add them to the contract.”

Callie was overwhelmed with joy. “Thank you so much. Oh, by the way, do Mr. Gallard and Mr. Walpolehave younger sisters who like to jump into the sea?

“I will go to the beach more often from now The contract is not important. I like to save people at thebeach.”

Braylen looked at her warily, “No, they don’t. Callie, I am very grateful to you for saving my youngersister’s life. But Darlene wants to stay alone, so don’t tell anyone about it.”

Callie nodded and smiled at Braylen as he took Darlene away, “Of course. Don’t worry.

I am a loyal friend.”

Braylen left with Darlene and called Adam over to help.

It was not easy to replace a place early in the morning. Braylen decided to take Darlene to the suburbanvilla to stay for a few days.

Later, he would replace a remote sanatorium for Darlene to stay.

When they arrived at the villa, the iron door had yet to be opened.

When Braylen was about to open the car door to get off, the car window beside him was knockedtwice.

He looked over and saw a man standing outside the car window.

It was Avery.
