The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 451

“Mommy, the snow is so heavy.” “I’ll take you for a snowball fight when the snow stops, okay?” Rachel combed Charlotte’s pigtails to comfort her glum mood. “Will Daddy come with us too?”

“Of course. Didn’t Daddy also come with us yesterday? Samuel, Mr. Wade, Godmother, and Mr. Hernandez are coming too…”

“And Leroy!” Rachel intentionally missed out on Leroy, but Charlotte could never forget about him, so she exclaimed, her face flushed. “You always remember to take him wherever you go, huh?”

Rachel glanced at Justin next to her and uttered, “Watch out. Your daughter will probably fall for good-looking men in the future. A handsome boy will win her heart!” “Well, there aren’t many people who look like Leroy,” replied Justin calmly.

“What if there is?” “If there is, she isn’t at a loss if he has good looks.” Rachel was surprised to hear that. “Are you sure Charlotte is your own daughter?”

When other people raised their daughters, they would usually be afraid that their daughters would get married to an indecent man, but why was Justin so confident that his daughter would not suffer at all?

Did having good looks mean they would be able to earn a living to support her? If someone was good-looking in an ordinary way, that might not be the case, but for someone as good-looking as Leroy, opportunities would come to him instead of him having to fight for them. “Okay, let’s look for Samuel. He must still be asleep.”

After Rachel was done braiding Charlotte’s hair, she put her down from her lap. Charlotte kissed her and Justin on the cheek before happily running out to play.

Rachel looked out the window and exclaimed, “It’s snowing so heavily outside. I wonder how it is in Geneva. Ria didn’t text me last night about whether or not she landed safely. Did she contact you?”

“Don’t worry. She went with a group of band members. Nothing will happen,” reassured Justin. Rachel nodded. “I wonder when the snow will stop and when we can go back.”

“Do you have a lot to do in the company?” Justin thought about how she risked her life to get a signal last night. “Are you in a hurry to go back?”

“Yeah, I have a lot of work on my hands. If there are trustworthy people over there, I won’t have to rush back. It won’t be a problem for me to work remotely, but I’m worried that there will be fluctuations among Hudson Pharmaceuticals’ board of directors.”

Evan headed the board of directors of Hudson Pharmaceutical, and he had been pulling tricks behind the scenes recently.

After all, Hudson Pharmaceutical started as a family business, and she was the only one left in the eldest son’s family to fight alone. Today, the survival rate of family businesses in the market was low. Other family members within the Hudsons or outsiders were starting to think that they might have the opportunity to take over Hudson Pharmaceutical.

Justin uttered thoughtfully, “I heard that Evan is holding proxy equity. If he starts controlling from this aspect, you may be able to plan ahead.”

“Proxy equity?” Rachel, as a major shareholder of the Hudson Family, was aware of that. However, Evan had always regarded himself as merely a shareholder to the public. So how did Justin find out?

“Evan’s mother is actually his stepmother, and he has always been at odds with her. In order to force him to be filial, his father left all his assets to his widow, so even if Evan doesn’t like her, he still has to visit her during the holidays.. The proxy right of the shares is also acquiesced to by Old Mrs. Holt,” explained Justin.

“If you can win the support of Old Mrs. Holt, then no matter what Evan does in the future, it will be useless.” Rachel was amazed at his knowledge of information. “How do you know all this?”
