Chapter 238 You Are My Sister
After being carried off the air cushion, Darlene was immediately sent to the emergency room.
Darlene had already fallen into a coma. Because of the huge emotional ups and downs, her mind was
not clear for a while.
Gustave did not enter the emergency room. He did not have any external injuries. He only did a
detailed examination of the brain CT. After being diagnosed by the doctor that he had no internal
injuries, he was allowed to continue staying in the ordinary sick room.
Darlene only left the emergency room early the next morning. Her illness was caused by bad emotions.
Since there was no sudden situation, there was no point in staying in the ICU.
Therefore, Darlene also stayed in an ordinary ward. The few people from the Swale family gathered
around the bed, and Gustave also came over.
Avery could only sit in the corridor outside as always. A few days ago, when Darlene was unconscious
for five days, he had not been able to see her. Now, he was more ashamed to go in and face her.
After all, before Nathen donated his heart, it was he, Avery, who deliberately concealed the truth from
Darlene.
In the ward, since Darlene came out of the emergency room, she had sat silently on the bed.
Darlene did not say a word and just sat there. She did not sleep or eat.
Dakota sat at the side, anxious and distressed. She lowered her head and wiped her tears.
Gustave sat by the bed and helped Darlene wipe her face. The atmosphere in the ward was so heavy
that it was as
if it could freeze.
Seeing that everyone was in a bad mood, Braylen tried to find a topic. âSister, you should be glad that
the air cushion saved you both.
âIf you were the only one being saved, wouldnât you owe Mr. Walpole a life? There are so many people
who care about you. Ah, now that things have come to this, donât think too much about taking your own
life.â
Darlene looked at Braylen from the side. After looking at him for a long time, she said without any
emotion, âI am not your sister.â
Braylen secretly muttered to himself, it had been so long, but at least she started talking.
Saying a few words was better than being silent all the time.
Braylen brought a glass of water over and said, âThe DNA test is written in black and white. You are the
biological child of the Swale family. You are my sister.
âI bullied you in the past. I use juice to replace water. Ah, no, I use juice to replace wine to apologize to
you.
âWe are a family. There is no overnight grudge. You donât need to complain about your fate anymore.
After you return to the Swale family, I guarantee that you will not suffer any longerâ¦â
Darlene was still expressionless and interrupted him, âI am not your sister.â
Darlene had already become like this.
She hoped that she would not have any relatives. At least, she would not need to worry about anyone
when she died.
She didnât want more people to feel sorry for her or be dragged down by her.
When Braylen saw that Darlene was completely stubborn, he awkwardly turned to Gustave to strike up
a conversation. âGustave, we have known each other for so many years.
âToday, I finally saw your character clearly. With you taking care of my sister, the Swale family can be at
ease.
Iâll put my words here today. I accept you as my brother-in-law!â
Gustave continued to wipe Darleneâs arms. He probably wanted to cheer everyone up too, so he said,
âOkay, thank you, brother.â
Braylen was stunned for a moment. He proudly showed off to Adam. âAdam, listen to what he just
called me. He used to boast that he was older than me by a few days, and he was so arrogant!â
Adam looked at Braylen, who was with an expression of taking advantage of Gustave, and faintly said,
âMr. Swale, donât tell me you still think that you are taking advantage when Mr. Walpole called you
âbrotherâ?â
Dakota was originally crying and was at a loss of what to do, but when she heard this, she gave a rare
smile. âYou, you are like that you sold your own sister, and you even helped the guy to count the
money.â
Braylen thought for a long while before he could realize what happened. He immediately put on a
serious face and said unhappily, âWho is your brother?
No, no, no. Donât call me that. If you want to call me that, you should give me at least 150 million
dollars as a present. Give it to me first.â
Darlene had a completely unrelated
attitude toward their conversation.
When Braylen finished talking and laughing, she said a few words.
âI already said that I am not Mr. Swaleâs sister, nor am I a child of the Swale family. I have been an
orphan since I was a child. My adoptive parents died, and now there are only my grandmother and
younger brother. I donât need other families, and I donât need other relatives.â
Darlene even wanted to die. Now, what was the point of returning to the Swale family?
It didnât matter, and Darlene didnât want it anymore.
Dakotaâs eyes were red. She got up and sat next to Darlene. Dakotaâs heart ached as she grabbed
Darleneâs hand.
âYou canât accept it at the moment. I can understand. No one in the Swale family will force you to make
any choice.
âBut from now on, your difficulties are the Swale familyâs difficulties. The Swale family will always be
your backing. You just need to take good care of your health and take care of yourself. Donât worry
about anything else. The Swale family will help you deal with it.â
Darlene looked at Dakota. Darlene never dared to imagine that her biological mother would be Dakota,
the one she had always admired. Dakota was such a merciful and kind person.
Darleneâs real home was such a good family, like the Swale family.
If Darlene could have recognized her family earlier, even if it was only half a year earlier, or even a few
months earlier, it might have been a salvation for her in the days of despair.
But now, it was too late.
Darlene looked at Dakotaâs expectant gaze. She held it in and did not say that out.
Darlene really wanted to say that no matter how capable the Swale family was, it could not bring
Nathen back to life.
If Nathen could not come back to life, then she, Darlene, did not deserve to live anymore. She could
not step on the lives of others to be alive.
Darlene did not say anything. Dakota thought that she was wavering in the end. Dakota excitedly
grabbed Darleneâs hand. âDonât worry. Now that you and Avery have already divorced. Everything is
gonna be fine.
âIf he dares to come and pester you again, the Swale family will sue him.
Even if we have to fight with the Gallard family, we will never let you suffer any more grievances.
âAlso, Mr. Walpole said that your grandmother and brother are still abroad. Iâve already sent someone
to go with Darnell, the man under Mr. Walpole. They will soon bring your grandmother and brother
back.â
Darlene looked a little worried. Dakota immediately promised, âI promise you that not only you but also
your grandmother and brother will no longer be wronged by others.
âFrom now on, the Swale family will be your backing and your family, and also your grandmother and
brotherâs backing and family.â
Dakota could not help but hold Darlene in her arms. Tears suddenly fell and she choked. âSweetheart,
sorry to have let you suffer all these years. I wonât let it happen again.â
Darleneâs body was a little stiff. She had to admit that it was very warm to be held by Dakota.
Darlene had never experienced the warmth that came from her loved ones in the past twenty years.
Why did it only come now?
Darlene even dared not to dream about these scenes and conversations. Why did it only come now?
Dakota sobbed. âSweetie, donât think too much about it. Mom has been looking for you for so many
years. Weâll pay the debt you owed to the Elicott family. You will be fine. Donât think about anything
else, okay?â
Dakota held Darlene tightly, but a moment later, the person in her arms reached out and pushed her
away.
Darlene did not look at Dakotaâs face full of tears, nor did she look at the pain and joy on Lucianâs face.
She only said softly, âIâm tired. Can I sleep for a while?â
There was a knock on the door and a doctor came in. Seeing Darlene wake up, he hesitated and said,
âI have a few words. Can I talk to Ms. Garciaâs family alone?â
Dakota immediately helped Darlene to lie down. âThen you should take a good rest first. Donât let your
imagination run wild. Mom and Dad will talk to the doctor and be back soon.â
Darlene nodded. This time, she did not argue with her like how she explained that Braylen was not her
brother.
Dakota and Lucian followed the doctor.
Gustave was worried and went with them.
Braylen was left alone in the sick room to take care of Darlene. When everyone else left, Darlene said,
âIâm hungry. I want to have some soup.â
There was soup on the bedside table, but it was a little cold.
Braylen walked over and picked up the soup box. âThen Iâll go out and heat it up in a microwave. You
go to sleep first.â
Braylen thought that the microwave was at the end of the corridor. If Darlene wanted to leave this floor,
she had to go over there. He could also see Darlene, so he was not too worried.
Darlene nodded. Braylen took the soup box and went out.
Not long after Braylen went out,
Darlene got off the bed and left the ward.
Avery, who was originally sitting in the corridor, also followed the doctor to the office.
Darlene watched their backs as they entered the office and walked over to the office.
The door of the office was ajar, and the voice of the doctor came from inside.
âIf there are no other solutions, I suggest that we try hypnosis treatment for her. Itâs just that the risk is
relatively high, and it depends on the family membersâ choice.â
