The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 467

“Where are you now? How are things going?” “We’re still in the mountains. The situation is dire as the medical supplies and basic necessities are running low, and the townspeople are fierce.”

Clamorous voices could be heard on the other end of the phone, as if someone was looting something. “As soon as we heard the news, we contacted the foundation for new supplies, but President Burton was trapped and the medical personnel who arrived to assist were also stopped by these townspeople.”

“But all the remaining medical supplies from Hudson Pharmaceuticals have been donated,” Rachel grumbled.

“Don’t fight! Don’t fight! Everyone has a share!” “What did you just say, President Hudson? It’s too loud here and I didn’t hear you.”

Rachel was about to say something when she hesitated for a brief moment. Then, she responded, “I said that I’ll find a way.”

“Thank you so much.”

“Please be careful.”

And the call was then hung up. No one could imagine how bad things were over there. Jolly had been next to Rachel and upon seeing the latter hanging up the phone, Jolly immediately inquired, “What’s going on? Is it true that all of the supplies have been depleted? I’ll keep track of how much supplies we’ve donated…”

“Forget it. Justin traveled to the most distant location. Even the medical team’s personnel were hesitant to travel to that remote ravine. The supplies allocated there were scarce. Moreover, a truck transporting all of the supplies rolled over halfway,” Rachel explained.

The truck had rolled over on the mountain road on such a snowy day, which already meant that the people were lucky to be alive. How could they care about the goods when human lives were so much more important?

“Jolly, please contact the marketing department first and inquire whether the medical supplies available can be delivered to the disaster area. We will make every effort to extend those orders to our customers later.”

Jolly was also unequivocal when it came to human life. Hence, she replied, “It is not impossible to discuss extensions with customers. After all, we are dealing with human. lives. However, the liquidated damages are still quite high, so it would be great to avoid taking this step unless absolutely necessary.

Hudson Pharmaceuticals’ capital chain rupture issue remains unresolved… Well, I’ll ask a few other pharmaceutical plants regarding this. Spending extra money to purchase medical supplies from other companies to be donated is still preferable to losing our customers’ trust.”

“I’ll go with you,” Rachel said as she grabbed her coat and car keys. Although there were numerous pharmaceutical manufacturing plants in Riverdale, Rachel and Jolly’s effort to visit several plants were frivolous.

“President Hudson, it’s not that we are not willing to give you assistance. It’s just that the rest of our stocks were purchased.”

“Did someone purchase them?” Rachel was dubious. “How is that possible, Mr. Montel? Your inventory has always been the largest.”

“Ahem!” Jolly eyed her as she faked a cough. The way Rachel phrased it sounded like she. was saying Mr. Montel’s business was bad and his inventory was overstocked, which was something Rachel would do when she was not thinking straight.

On the other hand, Rachel didn’t bother to ponder about it, and Mr. Montel didn’t seem to mind either. “Are you unaware of this, President Hudson? The Burton Group purchased the medical supplies to be donated to the Baybrook’s victims,” he said, feeling perplexed. “The Burton Group?” Rachel froze for a moment before she felt some hope. ‘Really?”

“Of course it’s true! The contract has already been signed in black and white. Although they have not yet gathered all of the supplies, I believe they will distribute them in batches. After all, it’s snowing heavily right now, which makes travel difficult.”

After leaving the pharmaceutical factory, Rachel had a ray of hope. “The Burtons have donated 20 million to this charitable cause. Regardless of their disagreements with Justin, Julian is still very trustworthy in this situation.” Jolly made a remark.
