The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 465

Rachel wondered how Gloria would react if she heard it. Naturally, the wedding gown must still be tailored. Even though everything had been simplified according to Gloria’s intention, it was still a collection-level work that had been hand- stitched by the best tailors.

They couldn’t stay outdoors for long because the snow was getting heavier. Rachel and the others had no choice but to return inside. The floor-to-ceiling windows were misted in white.

Charlotte, who was napping, awoke for unknown reasons. Ignoring the servant’s cries, she dashed out of the room and rummaged through the boxes to look for her little leather boots. Then, she sat on the carpet to put them on.

“What are you doing, Charlotte?” Rachel was confused. “Are you going out?” The child nodded and with an innocent face, she said, ‘Mommy, I’m off to have a snowball fight! You promised to play with me!”

“The snow hasn’t accumulated yet, so we can’t have a snowball fight,” Rachel responded helplessly.

“What?” Charlotte was stunned for a moment. She then removed her half-worn boots, leaving them on her instep, looking desolated. “When will we be able to play in the snow?”

“Let’s wait until evening.” Rachel was unsure too, so she looked out the window and said, “I don’t know how long this snow will last, or how heavy it will fall.”

“If it continues to snow like this, two hours will suffice,” Justin said as he approached. “Charlotte, go ahead and play with Samuel first. I’ll call you later.”

“Okay.” Charlotte agreed despite her reluctance. After all, being reluctant was pointless at this time, so she put on her boots and lay in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the backyard, blinking her big eyes and gazing at the snowflakes outside. “I’ve never seen her so interested in snow,” Justin said helplessly..

Jolly, who was drinking tea, observed the situation and laughed. “Those who didn’t know would think it was a child from the south who had never seen snow before.”

“I guess I’ll stay here for dinner today because it’s snowing so hard.” Jolly deliberately blinked at him, saying, “You won’t mind, will you, Justy?”

Rachel almost spit out the tea because Jolly called him Justy. When has Jolly become so acquainted with Justin?

Meanwhile, Justin didn’t seem to object to the way Jolly addressed him. Instead, he replied calmly, “The chef is preparing our dinner. If it snows heavily, both of you can spend the night here.”

Rachel did not reject his suggestion because Jolly was present. “By the way, how long does it take for Gloria to return? Can the custom-made wedding gown be tailored in time?”

“Yes. She has just completed her tour, so she’ll probably be back before New Year’s Eve.” Jolly nodded upon hearing that. “When is the wedding being held? Is it on the sixth or eighth day of the month?”

“On the sixth day.” Rachel was concerned that if it was held too late, Victor’s colleagues from his school would be unable to attend. After all, school was about to reopen, and they would be extremely busy.

However, Jolly was not really paying attention to anything regarding Gloria’s wedding. She had repeatedly asked Rachel about the wedding date, but she couldn’t remember anything. As such, Rachel predicted that Jolly would ask her about it again in two days.

Snowflakes fluttered outside, but the house was warm. It seemed like the outdoors and indoors were two completely different worlds, yet they blended well.
