Chapter 253 She Never Comes Back

The Gallard family had never had such a quiet New Year's Day.

Darlene was with them every time in the past ten years, and each time, she was the most neglected.

And this year, Darlene was absent. The most invisible person was gone, yet because of that, the Gallard family's atmosphere was dead as anything.

Avery never came back to the Gallard's house. Sandra, the Gallard family's daughter-in-law, who had pretended to be attentive, was imprisoned. Erick was kicked out of the family. And Owen, Avery's father, was depressed because of what had happened to Darlene, so he moved out.

Both the Elicott family and the Swale family had a fallout with the Gallard family, and no one would come over to chat.

Andrew was stubborn. He wanted nothing but for Avery to come back. Now that Avery wasn't back, Andrew didn't allow outsiders to come to the Gallard's house on New Year's Day.
