Just as she walked over, she saw Avery walking over with a dark expression,
and he was talking on the phone.
When Avery saw her, he spoke a few words to the other side of the line before hanging up.
His gaze stopped on Vivian, and he seemed to hesitate about what to say.
“Vivian, Darlene suddenly vomited blood in prison and was sent to the
hospital. I am her husband nominally. The police called me to take a look.”
Vivian clenched her fists and said with concern, “Why would she suddenly vomit blood? How is she now? Don’t worry. I will go with you.”
Avery hesitated for a moment but did not delay any further. “Alright, let’s
go.”
There was a traffic jam. Along the way, Avery could not keep his cool. But Vivian was by his side, so he endured his impatience.
When they arrived at the hospital, Darlene had just come out of the
emergency room and had not woken up yet. Nathen was wearing a white
coat and gave Darlene an intravenous drip in the ward.
The two police officers were guarding the ward. When they saw Avery come over, they explained, “At dusk, Ms. Garcia began to vomit blood after dinner. When the prison officers found her out, she almost stopped breathing. The situation was too serious, so they directly sent her to the hospital.”
Nathen asked with a dark face, “She wouldn’t have suddenly vomited blood. I’ve asked someone to check on her. There are new and old injuries all over her body. I’m not sure how many internal injuries there are. Someone must have hurt her in the prison.”
Avery looked sullen. “There are police officers guarding the prison. How

could someone hurt her?”
Vivian dodged his gaze and stood behind Avery without saying anything.
The policemen retorted, “We have prison guards on duty every day. There should be no one who can injure her.
“When Ms. Garcia was imprisoned, she had many injuries on her body. If she really suffered injuries in the prison, she would definitely tell the prison guards, but she had not said anything to them for the past month.”
Nathen did not want to give up. “Sir, forgive me for being blunt. As a surgeon, I’m sure that I didn’t make mistakes. I can tell the new injuries from the old ones. As for why she didn’t tell the prison guards, I’m afraid…”
Nathen paused for a moment before he said to Avery, “I’m afraid that someone won’t let her say it, and she didn’t dare to say it. She has no choice but to swallow her anger and grievance, and she could only withstand being bullied.”
The policemen could not pass the buck. “Dr. Elicott, we will investigate if something like you said has happened. If it did, we will definitely punish the prisoners who injured Ms. Garcia seriously, and we won’t let go of the prison guards who neglected their duties…”
Before the policeman could finish, Avery interrupted him with a dark face, “These injuries are new. Mr. Kael Mcmahon, you have to give me an explanation. Are the people in the same cell as her still there?”
As he spoke, Avery pulled Darlene’s hair away and saw a knife wound behind her ear.
When he rolled up her sleeves, Avery saw the wounds and burn marks on her neck and arms.

Avery was sure that these injuries were left after she was imprisoned.

Kael looked over and was shocked. “How could this be? According to the prison guard in charge of that cell, Ms. Garcia had never told him that she was injured. Why didn’t she tell him?”
Avery’s face turned cold. “Mr. Mcmahon, are you asking me?”
Avery seemed to have heard a big joke. “Something happened after she was imprisoned. Are you questioning me?”
Kael was panicked. “Mr. Gallard, I’m very sorry. Please calm down. We will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give you a satisfactory explanation.”
When he finished speaking, he motioned for his subordinates to call and ask about the situation.
The subordinates went out to have a call, but soon, he came back and whispered, “Kynlee was released yesterday. It is said that she has left Baltimore. There are also two prison guards. The other guards said that the two prison guards asked for leave and never came back again.”
Only then did Kael realize the seriousness of the matter. He said angrily, “Who has the guts to cause trouble in prison…”
Avery sneered and interrupted him, “So they ran away? Mr. Mcmahon, I want a clear and complete answer in a week, and I have to personally meet those who hit Darlene.”
Kael could only promise that he would definitely bring back the people involved in the matter as soon as possible, and then he left with his people.
Avery’s expression was tense as he stared at Darlene on the bed. He said, “All of you, get out.”

Everyone had left, but Vivian wanted to stay. However, Avery had his back facing her and did not even look at her.
Vivian felt guilty. Even if she was unwilling, she could only go out first.
There was no one else in the ward, so Avery lifted the sheet off Darlene.
Darlene felt the movement. Even though she did not wake up, she trembled with vigilance.
Her hands waved around, wanting to grab something to support herself, and she mumbled, “Don’t… Don’t touch me. Don’t hit me.”
Avery’s outstretched hand froze. He didn’t know what had happened. It had
only been a month. How did she become like this?
He looked at her wrist. Darlene had lost a lot of weight. She had lost at least 10 pounds during the month.
The prison uniform covered her tightly, so her injuries were not visible. But now, Darlene had changed into a loose hospital gown, revealing the wounds
on her arms and calves, as well as the back of her neck and ears. There were ferocious scars everywhere.
Even Avery felt a chill run down his spine when he looked at the injuries.
His hands began to tremble, and he didn’t even dare to look at her anymore.
What exactly had she experienced in just a month?
