The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 423

Something was said on the other end of the line that caused Rachel’s expression to turn weirder. After Rachel disconnected the line, Jolly asked, “What’s the matter?”

Rachel had a complicated look on her face. “I asked my secretary to bring Jess something to eat at the hospital. The secretary said that she saw Justin eating with Jess.”

“Aren’t the two of them as incompatible as fire and water?”

“I find it strange too.” She was extremely puzzled. These two people were still fighting in the morning because of a bowl of scrambled eggs, and they couldn’t get along at all. Why were they so harmonious now?

At this moment, inside the hospital ward, Jessica was taking a huge bite out of the pork ribs Justin bought. ‘Not bad. It tastes quite delicious. Have you had lunch yet? Do you want some?”

“It’s fine. You can finish it all.” Justin sat on the sofa opposite the bed with his arms crossed over his chest. He was far away from Jessica and watching her vigilantly.

She shook her head and looked calm. “If you’re still upset with me for what happened in the morning, I can apologize, but you’re the one who provoked me first. Who asked you to warn me? I don’t like it when people tell me what to do.”

“Do you think you’re intelligent? If you were really burned, you’re the one who’s going to suffer. What damage does it do to me?”

“Are you sure there’s no damage? Do you think Rachel would still bother you if I was really injured?” Justin remained as motionless as a mountain. “Don’t use your naive mindset to assess us.”

“Pfft.” Contempt appeared on Jessica’s face as she pushed the bowl aside. “I’m done. I want to have corn and pork ribs stew in the evening.” He didn’t say anything as he cleaned up the table and left.

“Hey, where are you going?” “Going back to prepare the corn and pork ribs stew that you wanted.” “It’s still early. It’s only 12.00PM.” Jessica) glanced at her phone. “Play games with me.”

Justin frowned. “If you don’t play games with me, I’ll call Rachel and ask her to spend time with me.” She waved the game controller in her hand triumphantly at him. “What’s your decision? Choose either option.”

At night, after Jessica finished her meal, she picked up the game controller again. “Let’s play some games. You beat me several times in the afternoon. I’m not satisfied. I want to get my victories back.”

He glanced at the time. “It’s getting late. I’m going back.”

“It’s only 8.00PM. How’s that considered late? “I want to go back to spend time with my daughter.” “What a good father.” Jessica picked up the phone. “Then, I can only ask Rachel to come and accompany me.”

Justin shot her a glance. “Rae’s on a business trip and won’t be back until a few days later.” “Then, shall we try? I’ll call her and see whether she’ll come back.” When she spoke, there was a slightly cold gleam in Jessica’s eyes and she was obviously threatening him.

Justin had lived for so many years. Besides the time Samuel was kidnapped and he was threatened to kneel down, he had never been intimidated before. In just one day, Jessica had him in the palm of her hand and was throwing her weight around.

When Hudson Pharmaceuticals arrived in Rachel’s hands, it was riddled with holes and she had to start everything all over again, which was difficult for her.

However, if Jessica made a phone call, Rachel would definitely let go of everything and rush. over in order to make up for the favor she owed Hans, even if it would affect Hudson Pharmaceuticals’ future.

Jessica took advantage of Rachel’s kindness and the need to return what she owed and she took advantage of Justin’s concern for Rachel as well.

Any discerning person would know what she was playing at, but he still jumped in without hesitation. “Okay, I’ll play games with you. We can play as long as you want.”
