The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 408

 

At the mention of the name, the pupils of the assistant, Rike Anderson, constricted slightly. Like Frankie, he worked in the Burton Group for many years. If Julian hadn’t taken over the company, he would still be Frankie’s assistant now, and he knew a lot about Hans’s affairs back then.

 

Intuition told him that the arrival of this girl would complicate things. “Let go of her.” The two security guards let the girl go..

Rike stepped forward. “What’s your name?”

 

“Jessica Egerton.” The girl’s face was full of youthful vigor and stubbornness. Then, she growled out her name. in anger and asked, “Can you tell your president to see me now?”

“Why do you want to see him?”

“He’s a murderer.” “If he really is a murderer and hasn’t been subdued so far, what do you think he will think. of you if you go to him and question a murderer face to face?”

Jessica said, unconvinced, “What am I afraid of? In broad daylight, can he kill me?”

“It’s impossible in broad daylight, but your brother Hans didn’t die in the daytime either. Jessica suddenly shuddered. Rike took out his mobile phone and handed it to Jessica. “Give me your contact information, and I will give you a call when today’s charitable donation ceremony is over.”

Jessica was suspicious. “Really?” “You have the option of being taken away by security, or you can trust me and walk free. You choose.” After only half a second of hesitation, Jessica took Rike’s phone and entered her own phone number. At this time, the charity donation ceremony in the banquet hall was in full swing.

All the major companies in Riverdale were present, and they took this opportunity to show their public awareness in front of the public. They were all very generous with their donations. “Mr. Howard, long time no see.”

“Mr. Peters, you are here too. How much did the Burton Group donate this time?” They continued to exchange formal and polite conversations. Julian greeted his business partners. Rachel accompanied him politely for a while at first. Later, she became disinterested, so she went to the snack table on the side to grab a drink and occasionally say hello to people she knew.

“President Hudson?” A familiar voice came from behind her. Rachel turned around with a surprised look. “Frankie? Long time no see. Where have you been recently?” ‘The headquarters sent me to other places, so I was not in Riverdale for a while. I just came back yesterday, and I happened to be here to do some errands.”

“Did you come here to work?” “In addition to the donation in the company’s name, this charity fundraising also includes donations in the name of individuals. For example, I’m representing President Burton, and he donated 20 medical vehicles.”

“He’s not here?” Rachel looked around but didn’t see Justin. “He is now locked in the summer villa. He no longer cares about Riverdale’s affairs. So how can he be here?”

When Rachel thought of him alone in the summer villa, she twitched the corners of her lips. “Being hidden in a golden house with a fair lady, seclusion must also be a pleasant experience.”

“What do you mean?” “Don’t hide it from me. I already know. Isn’t President Burton’s fiancée back?” Rachel took a sip of her drink and pretended to be calm.

Frankie gave her a surprised look, then he said, “Do you mean Miss Tuscan? That’s a misunderstanding. The summer villa is co- owned by the Tuscan Family. So, naturally, you don’t know about this.” “Co-owned?” Rachel was taken aback and shook her head in astonishmegt.
