    Avery brought Darlene into the ward. Andrew followed them.


    At the end of the corridor outside, Erick and Sandra arrived in a hurry together. Just as they stepped out


    of the elevator, Vivian stopped them in the corridor.


    Sandra looked at Vivian with a face full of disgust. “How do you have the nerve to be


    here?


    “Andrew asked the media to suppress the public discussion because of the rtionship between your


    family and the Gard family in the past. If not for it, you would probably be notorious now, right?”


    Vivian was not in a hurry to exin. She looked at the two people standing side by side in front of her


    and said with a meaningful smile, “Why did you twoe together? Did you just stay together before?”


    Sandra had always been cautious. She believed no one would find their affair. Therefore, as Erick’s


    sister-inw, sometimes she came back or went out with Erick together


    openly.


    Sandra’s face immediately darkened. “Mind your words. Something happened to Avery. I arrived at the


    hospital and happened to meet Avery’s uncle, so we came up together.”


    Vivian smiled and lowered her voice. “Is that so? Sandra, we are in the same boat now. You don’t have


    to hide this from me. After all, with my friendship with you two, I will keep my mouth shut.”


    As she spoke, she took out a photo from her bag. In the photo, Sandra and Erick together entered a


    remote vi in the suburbste at night.


    Erick had always been calm. But when he saw the photo, his face immediately changed. “Ms. Sheridan,


    you got a lot of nerves. When did you take this photo? I’m warning you. Delete it right now. Don’t


    overestimate yourself.”


    At the same time, Erick tried to snatch the phone from Vivian’s hand. Vivian put the


    phone back into her bag. “Erick, don’t waste your energy. Since I dared to show it to


    you, I definitely have a backup, and the photos I took were far more than this.


    “Moreover, after these years, did you two forget?”


    Vivian took a step forward as she spoke. She whispered, “Back then, you and the Bullock family really


    put a lot of effort into nning Avery’s car ident.


    “The Gard family has such arge family business. Erick, since you trusted the Bullock family and


    dared to coborate with them, how could you not have an affair with Sandra?


    “I was a nobody, but I contributed a lot at that time. Now I am about to be kicked out. because of a small


    thing. I am not happy about this.”


    Erick’s voice became gentle. “Vivian, what are you saying? My father values you. Previously, he even


    expected you to marry Avery. No matter what, we are like a family.


    Don’t feel alienated.


    “I’ll definitely help you if I can. But you see, because of the matter between you and Jax, my father is still


    a little angry, so it is hard for me to speak up for you.”


    Seeing that the situation was not right, Sandra also changed her attitude. “I don’t want to scold you. My


    brother is not sensible, but you should be.


    “You know Avery well. At this critical moment, how could you let him get the goods on


    you?


    “From now on, how can my family be close to you? Avery will feel suspicious, won’t


    he?”


    Vivianughed softly. “If you had spoken like this earlier, things would have been easier. I am not an


    unreasonable person. If I had another way, I would not have taken.


    out this photo that would hurt our rtionship.


    “I was just reminding you. I have no family and no bonds. If I were forced into a corner and we broke up,


    you two would be the ones to suffer losses.”


    Staff members were walking past the corridor. Although they were standing at the


    corner away from the others, some noticed the three.


    Vivian had said everything that needed to be said. “In short, please speak up for me. Avery is not willing


    to see me now, and his grandfather has a prejudice against me. I feel wronged.”


    Erick could only promise. “Don’t worry. I will go and talk to my fatherter. I will try my best to let you go


    to see Avery today.”


    Vivian smiled, “Then thank you.


    Sandra left with Erick. After walking far away, Sandra turned around and red at Vivian’s back.


    Vivian was treacherous. Sandra should not have listened to Jax. Because Vivian was trusted by Avery,


    Vivian was allowed to get involved.


    It seemed that if there was a chance, they should find a way to get rid of Vivian. If those things were


    exposed, Erick and the Bullock family would be finished.


    After entering the ward, Erick and Sandra greeted Avery as usual. Sandra, the stepmother who was only


    one year older than Avery, had always been gentle and sensible in front of others.


    The more Owen looked at his young wife, the more he felt her pleasure. Owen looked at Avery and said,


    “Avery, don’t drive by yourself if possible.


    “Today was lucky. You and the truck managed to avoid each other in time and did not cause a


    consequence that was too serious. Look how anxious your stepmother is. She even rushed over from


    the south of the city. You have to know what’s good for you.”


    Avery looked at Sandra’s delicate makeup and sneered, “That’s really hard on you.”


    Sandra felt guilty and avoided his gaze. She looked at Andrew. “That’s what I should do. It’s nothing.


    Avery is injured. He must have a good rest. Don’t rush him too much about


    the business.


    Avery was a little disgusted when he saw this. He interrupted her. “Since you all saw me, you can go


    back. I have Darlene with me. I do not need anyone else.”


    When Darlene saw that the others were about to leave, she immediately stood up. “I think you’re fine. It’s


    very stuffy inside. I’ll go out and take a breath.”


    Andrew immediately looked at her with dissatisfaction. Avery reached out and grabbed her arm. “We’ll go


    outter. Sit down first. I have something to tell you.”


    Andrew was obviously dissatisfied with Darlene, but since Avery said this, he still went


    out with the others.


    Erick immediately followed. “Dad, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”


    They two chatted and went out together. The ward door was closed, and the previously


    lively room became quiet.


    Avery looked at Darlene. “The ident was because the brakes broke down.


    “The car was driven over by Cyrus today. It was parked in the underground garage of the hospital. The


    brakes couldn’t break down for no reason. Who do you think did it?”
