The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 463

Julian’s speech was extremely inciting and inspiring, particularly to the stakeholders in the audience who were drawn to his glamourized promises. In addition, the philanthropists whom he never interacted with were moved by his speech as well. “I don’t think we’ll stand a chance.”

“Where is Justin? He shouldn’t have been eliminated in the first round of internal elections, right?” Jolly said while clapping her hands.

“That’s impossible,” Rachel said as she looked around the candidate seating area, but Justin was nowhere to be found. He was highly regarded by the foundation’s president that he could not be defeated in the first round of internal elections.

Jolly refused to believe it, so she assured, “Perhaps President Connor wants to save his face. Do you think there will be a campaign meeting like this if in any case, Justin is reinstated with all honesty?”

The Foundation Supervisory Committee wronged him because of public opinion in the previous case, so his name was removed. However, Justin should arguably be reinstated once the truth had been revealed.

Rachel felt guilty at the thought of this. After all, it was Jessica who started the trouble and Julian was at the root of it.

“Hey, now that the second one is over, should Justin be next?” Jolly’s remark snapped her out of her reverie. Rachel stared at the stage, feeling perplexed. “What’s going on?”

Jolly patted her hand and said, “What did I say? Justin must’ve been eliminated in the first round of the internal elections! What is going on with the Foundation’s old men?”

Rachel was in disbelief. He was clearly recommended by President Connor, and only a total of five people signed up. Who could be compared to Justin after a thorough evaluation? How could he have been eliminated in the Supervisory Committee’s first round of selection?

She was still in shock when Jolly suddenly grabbed her sleeve, saying, “Chris, look! My dad sent me a message.”

The chat interface with Mr. Carter was displayed on Jolly’s mobile phone screen. Leaving aside the emoticons and stickers they sent to each other, the final sentence caught her eyes: ‘Julian bribed the committees.”

Rachel’s expression instantly changed when she saw that.

“Hey, where are you going?” Jolly wasn’t able to stop Rachel from leaving the venue with her phone in her hand.

When Rachel exited the venue, she immediately made a phone call standing in the corridor near the entrance. “Mr. Carter, it’s me.”

“Oh, Chris,” Richard responded, thereafter adding, “You saw the message I sent to Jolly. didn’t you?”

“Yeah, I saw it.” She then looked around to ensure no one was around before lowering her voice and asked, “Did Julian really bribe the committee? Is this true?”

“I wouldn’t have told Jolly if it’s not true.”

“How did you find out?” A total of seven people took part in the Supervisory Committee’s inspection round. As long as three of them did not vote for Justin, he would be eliminated and would be deemed completely ineligible for the election.

“Mr. Kodi of the Supervisory Committee was drinking tea with me and happened to touch on this subject. Robin went looking for his wife. His mother almost took bribes if she hadn’t been careful, and several of them are most likely being offered bribery the same way.”
