The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 444

On Sunday afternoon, Rachel and the others took off from the airport. The plane flew across the sky above Riverdale Airport, separating the sky into two and leaving a long white trail.

Victor sat beside Rachel on the plane. When they were taking off, he was frozen in his seat and didn’t know where to put his hands.

When she noticed that, Rachel comforted him by saying, “Don’t be nervous, you’ll be fine. If your ears are feeling uncomfortable, just cover them and exhale.”

“I’m not nervous about that.” He looked at the clouds outside the window and said softly, “I’m thinking about the possibility of Gloria rejecting me.”

“Don’t worry.” She patted his shoulder and comforted him just like a gentle sister. “I’m sure that Gloria will be very happy if you propose to her.”

“Really?” “You’ll need to try it yourself to know whether it’s real or not. Are you not going to propose to her if I tell you that she won’t say yes?” It might hurt his pride if he was rejected, but he would definitely regret it for the rest of his life if they were separated because he didn’t take the initiative to propose.

After being encouraged by her words, Victor nodded and replied, “I get it.”

Across the aisle, Jolly stuck her head out from Leroy’s shoulder and watched the fun. “If Gloria rejects you, just take this trip as our holiday trip together.” Hearing that, Victor said, “In that case, I might as well go to school.”

Jolly was just being kind by comforting him. Who knew that he would give her a cold shoulder? “Seeing how she fell for you, Gloria sure has weird taste in men.” “Alright, don’t tease him anymore. He’s already nervous enough.” Rachel looked at Jolly resignedly. “Shh-”

It was already nighttime when the plane was flying smoothly in the sky, and they still needed another day before they reached Switzerland.

They had five adults and two kids, and they took up all the seats on this flight’s business class. Samuel took two seats for himself behind Jolly and Leroy, and he was looking at his tablet attentively. Across the aisle was Justin, who was telling Charlotte a story. ‘There are three little pigs…”

At the same time, in Riverdale, the office lights were still on in the Burton Group’s building. Julian was using hot water to wash the tea cups on the tea table and was taking his time making tea, whereas Robin sat opposite him.

“If we’re sure that Rachel will renounce her vote, then we’ll have a better chance of winning. There are still a few oldies in the shareholders’ meeting who are still clean. We just need to dig out some dirt on them.”

Julian said indifferently, “You should figure it out yourself. I’ve done all I can to help you.” “I know that you’ve already done a lot to keep my position. There are plenty of fish in the sea; many women out there are gentler and prettier than Rachel. I can introduce some of them to you.”

When he heard that, Julian just gave him a blood-curdling stare. Robin immediately shut his mouth and didn’t dare to say anything else. Julian didn’t want to say anything extra to him. “What else do you need to discuss with me?”

“Right, we need to talk about the charity foundation. Isn’t there a vacancy for the vice president of Riverdale Charity Foundation? They kept asking Justin to go back, but he was so arrogant that he didn’t even let the president in when he personally went there to offer him the position. Thus, the foundation is going to do an election and do a democratic vote. I’ve also received the invitation for the election polling.”

As he said that, he took out the invitation and put it on the table. “There are three candidates for the election right now. Who do you think we should vote for?”

“I’m not interested in charity. You can decide for yourself.” Just as Julian said that, a knock came from the door.

The office’s door was actually open, and Julian’s assistant entered. “President Peters.” Julian didn’t even look up and just continued doing what he was doing. “What have you got?”
