Chapter 92 Avery Loses Her

In the hospital.

When Darlene packed up her things and brought Reina out of the ward, Andrew was standing outside.

Avery went to the suburbs to catch Vivian on the spot. He would not be able to come back in a shorttime. He left two bodyguards to watch over Darlene.

Andrew came over and invited Darlene and Reina to his house for a meal. He said that it

was Avery’s instruction.

Even if the two bodyguards were skeptical about what Andrew said, they did not dare to stop Andrew.

With the help of the walking stick, Andrew looked coldly at Darlene and Reina as they

walked out of the ward.

He said lightly, “You can leave. I have prepared a private plane for you. It is up to you whether you wantto take it or not. However, there is only one chance. If you are caught

by Avery, I will not help you.”

Darlene could not completely trust Andrew. She was worried that if she took that

private plane, she and Reina would fall into danger again.

Darlene only hoped that she could take Reina away safely. Even if the hope was slim, she did not wantAndrew’s people to follow them.

Darlene knew Andrew was as cruel as Avery.

Darlene held Reina’s hand tightly and said to Andrew, “We can leave on our own.”

Andrew did not try to persuade her. “Alright, do as you wish. The further you go, the better. Don’t evercome back again. It’s good for everyone.”

Darlene nodded and held Reina’s hand as they walked to the end of the corridor.

After walking a few steps, she stopped. Andrew frowned and thought, does she want to go back on herword? Maybe she could not let go of Avery. Darlene came back and knelt

in front of Andrew.

Andrew frowned even more. “What are you doing?”

Darlene knelt down and clenched her fists. “Thank you, Andrew, for the past ten years. I have caused alot of trouble for your family.”

Andrew turned his face away and stopped looking at her. “No need. If you want to leave, then leavequickly. Avery has not treated you well all these years. We do not owe you anything. Find a place andlive a good life with your grandmother.”

Darlene stood up and did not say anything else. She turned around and left with Reina.

Reina did not know what was going on. She followed Darlene into the elevator and asked worriedly,“Aurora, what happened?

“Aren’t we going to eat at the Gallard’s house? Where are we going now? Did you tell Avery? Where isNigel?”

Darlene didn’t know who Reina was calling. She was stunned for a moment before she corrected Reina,“Grandmother, call me Darlene from now on. I don’t know who Aurora

is.”

Reina nodded and agreed.

She thought, it’s just a name. It’s been ten years since she changed it. Let it be.

Darlene continued, “In short, something happened. Grandma, please believe me. Let’s leave this placefirst. I will explain it to you when the time comes.

Darlene was anxious, so Reina did not ask further. “Okay, but don’t forget Nigel.”

Darlene nodded. “I understand. Don’t worry, Grandma. Nigel has been settled. Nothing

will happen to him. Rest assured and we will go to a safe place.”

Darlene touched the fake documents and cash bank card in her pocket. These were all given to her byAndrew just now. They could ensure that Darlene and Reina would leave

safely.

They could either leave the city or go abroad.

Darlene had to leave before Avery returned. As long as she took a plane abroad, even if Avery found thatshe had left, it would be difficult for him to replace her again.

Without using Darlene’s real identity, there was no way Avery could replace her in such a big world.

Darlene and Reina took a taxi to the airport. There were no traffic jams at this time. Darlene’s plan wentsurprisingly smoothly.

Reina was old and could not stand such walking. As soon as she entered the airport lobby, she was tiredand panting.

Darlene was worried that Reina could not bear it. In addition, her heart began to hurt. Although shebrought the medicine for heart disease with her, there was no water.

Darlene didn’t want to leave Reina behind, so she held Reina’s hand and went to the self-serviceshopping machine to buy some water.

After choosing the goods, she tried to pay with her phone a few times but failed. She rummaged throughher bag for change.

After a while, someone handed over a note from behind her. “Do you need help?”

Darlene casually replied, “No need, thank you.”

When Darlene finished speaking, she suddenly realized that something was wrong. She turned around.Darlene released Reina’s hand when she looked for the change. But now

a man dragged Reina away.

Reina had never encountered such a thing. She was quite frightened.

Darlene’s expression darkened, and she said in a deep voice, “Who are you? We’re in the airport, andthere are people and surveillance cameras everywhere. If you don’t let go of

her, I will call for help!”

Not far away, Sandra walked over with a mask. “Don’t panic, Ms. Garcia. I mean no

harm.

“Avery has my younger brother. I don’t know what happened, but Avery said that he

wanted my brother’s life. I only have one brother, so I have to come to you and your

grandmother. Don’t worry, once my younger brother returns, I will immediately let you

go.”

Darlene said coldly, “Sandra, there is a debtor for every injustice. You can’t take us away. I’ll count tothree. If you don’t let us go, I can only call for help!”

Sandra smiled and approached her. “Do you really dare to shout? You escaped, right? Can you still runaway if you shout?

“How about this? I promise that when my brother returns, I will help you and your grandmother leave.”

While they were talking, a man wearing a mask walked over from behind them. It seemed that he washere to buy something from the self-service shopping machine.

When he walked to Sandra, the man said, “Excuse me.”

When Sandra frowned and was about to take a step to the side, she suddenly realized that somethingwas wrong.

Before she could react, the man with a gentle voice suddenly pressed a hand on her shoulder andpressed a thing to the back of her head with another hand.

Sandra felt that the thing pointed at her head was a gun, and her back instantly broke

out in cold sweat.

She finally recognized the voice and pretended to be calm. “Mr. Walpole, why are you meddling in otherpeople’s business recently?”

The two men beside Gustave surrounded him, blocking the view of the others. They did not let otherssee what Gustave was holding.

The two men who controlled Reina panicked and looked at Sandra uneasily.

Sandra was a calm woman. But she couldn’t calm down when her head was pointed at by

a gun.

Gustave smiled and lowered his voice. “I just happened to pass by. Ms. Bullock, let them go. You haveother ways to save your brother. You won’t lose out if I take them away.”

Sandra’s teeth trembled. She had seen Gustave’s marksmanship when she was abroad. Gustave’smarksmanship was excellent.

Her hands began to tremble. “Mr. Walpole, are you trying to scare me?”

Sandra felt the gun against her head pressed harder. Gustave said, “Why don’t you

gamble on it? Is this a loaded gun?”

Sandra could no longer keep her cool. “Gustave, good for you. Mind your own business. Just wait! Letthem go!”

The two men immediately let go of Reina. Sandra was too weak to stand, and she said

anxiously, “Let go of me. You are crazy!”

Gustave seemed to have lost his grip on the gun and pointed it at Sandra again, scaring her out of herwits. Only then did he take his gun back.

He asked his men to bring Darlene and Reina away. Seeing Sandra turn around to look at him, Gustavewaved the gun in his hand.

“What are you looking at? It’s fake. I bought it for a kid’s birthday. It costs 2 dollars.”

Sandra was so angry that her face turned red. She watched Gustave walk towards

Darlene.

Avery rushed back to the hospital with a dark face.

After entering the ward, he punched the wall hard. “Where is she?”
