Vivian walked to the corner at the end of the corridor. After confirming that there was no one around, sheheld her phone and lowered her voice, “Not now. It is not the right time for us to meet at the hotel.

“Avery is suspicious of me. I have been staying in Scenery Villa recently. If I go to the hotel late at night,it will be easy for his people to replace me.”

“So what?” Jax interrupted her with a chuckle.

Vivian was at a loss for words. The next moment, she was furious and wished she could slap Jax towake him up.

How could he make fun of her at such a critical moment?

If Avery really found out something and investigated further in a fit of rage, she would really be done for.

Seeing that she was silent, Jax unhurriedly continued, “Vivian, I’m not making things difficult for you. Youhave been too cold to me recently.

“In those few years abroad, you only have eyes for me. You said that we would be together for a lifetime.

“But now, every time I see you and Avery, you only want to stick to him. But when you meet me inprivate, you are unwilling to even kiss me.”

Vivian felt a little guilty. Just as Avery said, Jax was stupid and rich. And he was easily fooled. However,he was a flirt. Vivian looked down on him from the bottom of her heart, and she did not think that he wascomparable to Avery.

She had returned, and Avery was willing to believe her and treat her well. She naturally hoped that afterusing Jax, she could get away from him and be with Avery again.

She explained, “You also know that Avery is suspicious by nature. I was with him before, so I had topretend that you’re just a stranger.

“Moreover, he has always been on guard against you and your sister. If he knew that I was close to you,he would be on guard against me.”

Jax didn’t buy it. “Vivian, I heard that Mary was taken away by the police, and you were

present.

“She is your aunt, and she has done so many things for you in private. Since she was sent to the policestation, I had to start worrying about myself. I wouldn’t be sent to the police station by you, right?”

Vivian clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. Why did this fool suddenly become so smart at this time?

She was now suspected by Avery. Mary had also been sent to the police station. The only person shecould use was Jax.

However, Andrew had not realized what kind of person she was, so it was impossible for him to help herdo bad things.

She tried to calm herself down and softened her tone. “Jax, don’t you understand feelings for you? Nowis not the time to make our relationship public…”

“Let’s meet tonight. Vivian, I haven’t felt your sincerity for a long time,” Jax interrupted her again.

Without waiting for Vivian to refuse again, Jax continued, “Vivian, I have done so much

you. I don’t want to be abandoned by you in the end. See you tonight. Have a good

rest. We have plenty of time to chat at night.”

Vivian was in a hurry to change his mind, but Jax hung up the phone.

Vivian was so angry that she almost went crazy. She glanced around and kicked over a

trash can beside her.

There were many dirty things like tissues and cotton swabs that had been used by others in the trashcan. They were scattered on the ground. Not far away, a cleaner came over with a straight face. “Whatare you doing? Why are you so rude? Pick it up!”

Vivian had no place to vent her anger. After being scolded by the cleaner, she became

even angrier.

She wanted to retort, but the cleaner shouted. Many people in the distance looked over.

Vivian had just called Jax and was a little guilty. She could only hold back her anger and clean theground with a broom.

The dirty tissue and bloody cotton swab were swept up. She suppressed her anger and disgust, but herexpression was complex.

The cleaner snorted coldly. Seeing that Vivian had cleaned up the ground, she did not say anything moreand left.

Vivian cleaned the ground and was furious. She clenched her fists and wanted to vent

her anger by punching the wall. Not far away, there were still people staring at her and

gabbling.

She could only grit her teeth and put down her hands, leaving the hospital under

people’s gaze.

Fortunately, she always wore a mask when she went out, and no one recognized her.

In the ICU.

Darlene did not wake up for the whole day. Avery stayed in the ward with her.

At noon, the doctor checked Darlene’s body. The doctor said that there was nothing wrong. Avery wouldonly wait and see if she would wake up at night.

Avery wiped her hands with warm water and massaged her hands and feet.

The sky gradually darkened. Avery did not know why Darlene’s words suddenly

occurred to him.

“Mr. Gallard, you know that it is very shameful for me to help people massage now, but I healed you withthe skills that you look down upon. At this moment, you can stand in

front of me.”

He was used to Darlene’s caring. Since she married into the Gallard family, she had been

offering.

In those years, Darlene also felt that it was her duty to take care of Avery.

That was why the 16-year-old girl, who could not donate blood, rolled up her sleeves and said to thenurse for the first time, “I am an adult. I’m healthy and not afraid of

pain.”

After that blood draw, she said that she did not sleep well last night and was too sleepy. Then she had arest in the lounge.

Avery recalled that she seemed to have slept for more than an hour at that time. During

that time, no one from the Gallard family went in to see her.

Last night, Avery went into a coma after drawing blood. Then he suddenly understood she had probablybeen unconscious for more than an hour in the lounge because she

could not take it.

Avery had never cared about Darlene in those years, and probably no one in the Gallard family hadcared about her. Even when Teresa adopted Darlene, she had her own

purpose.

Avery massaged her arm with his finger. He suddenly felt that she had not been living well these years.The Gallard family could only give her money.

He bent down and reached out to touch Darlene’s forehead. “Darlene, I will treat you

better, I promise.”

Darlene was still sleeping very quietly. Avery felt that she had slept for too long.

He did not know how she went through that year when he was unconscious on the bed.

It was already late at night. Outside the ward, Cyrus knocked on the door. “Mr. Gallard, I

have something to tell you.”

Avery put Darlene’s arm back into the blanket and carefully covered her with it before getting up to leave.

Cyrus handed over his phone. It was a short video.

Avery glanced at it and narrowed his eyes. “Interesting. Let’s go take a look.

He called a servant over and instructed her to guard Darlene before leaving the hospital

with Cyrus.

By the time they reached the hotel, it was already past ten in the evening.

Avery went in and knocked on the table. “Give me a room card.”

The receptionist looked troubled. “Mr. Gallard, this is against the rules.”

Even if this hotel was owned by the Gallard Group, it was illegal to open the door without permission.

Avery looked displeased. “Did I ask you to take responsibility?”

The receptionist could only give him the room card. A woman with delicate makeup hurried in with a paleface.

Avery turned around and saw Jax’s sister, Sandra. Her expression immediately froze. “Avery, what acoincidence.”

Avery fondled the room card in his hand. “Since Ms. Bullock is here, you must have the same purpose asme. Let’s go take a look together.”

Sandra did not say anything else. She followed him into the elevator and went to the top

floor.

When they arrived outside the room, Avery did not hesitate and directly swiped his card

to open the door.

On the big bed in the room, Jax and Vivian were entangled together, and their clothes

were scattered all over the floor.
