The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 468

“Is President Peters willing to help?” Frankie sounded bewildered as he reconfirmed with Rachel. “Did he say that the Burton Group has extra goods held in store?” “Yes. I’ve called him and I’m very sure. The shipment will arrive there as soon as tomorrow night.”

“That’s amazing! President Hudson, you’ve really helped us big time. Do you know that President Burton is being confined in the community hall by these people? Even the village chief can’t stop them. I’m still trying to reach an agreement with them.”

Although Rachel was shocked to hear the news, she asked Frankie to appease the townspeople and not to worry too much about it. “Oh, and what about the driver? Any updates?”

“He’s fine. It’s just some minor injuries. He was in a hospital in Baybrook City last night, but he’s been sent to a hospital in Riverdale for further check-up.

“Okay.” After hanging up the call, she looked at the road. “Jolly, could you accompany me to the hospital?”

“Why?” “Frankie told me that the driver was sent to Riverdale last night. He’s not seriously injured, but I would like to visit him. I think I should buy some things before visiting.”

As of now, Rachel had two things to settle- firstly, to comfort the driver and his family, and secondly, to have a discussion with his family about releasing a more appropriate article.

The situation in Baybrook City had exceeded their expectations. Relying on the foundation alone was not enough to help everyone. Even some secluded areas were unable to receive global attention and hence, the lack of help. Thus, Rachel figured that releasing an article would be able to alleviate the problem.

After a thirty minute drive, Jolly and Rachel arrived at the hospital to search for the driver. The heavy snowfall had increased the rate of traffic accidents, thereby causing the hospital to be inundated with patients.

Jolly simply grabbed one of the nurses to ask for the driver’s room number before rushing over with Rachel. As soon as Jolly exited the elevator, Rachel tugged her over.

“What’s wrong?” Rachel’s eyes darkened as her gaze landed upon a silhouette across the other side of the corridor.

Jolly noticed the person as well. “What’s he doing here?” It was Robin, who entered the patient room they were heading to right in front of their eyes.

Jolly became frantic. “This rascal is seriously everywhere. Is he trying to take advantage of the situation? I’ll take a look.”

“Jolly, wait up!” Rachel quickly followed suit, worried that Jolly might cause trouble. They stood before the door and before they could even knock on it, a voice resounded from the inside.

“The remaining sum has been transferred to your wife’s account. You can leave the hospital after three or four days. You know that you must bring this to your grave, don’t you?”

“Don’t worry, President Gunson. I swear that I won’t let anyone else know about it.” “What if the media finds their way to you for an interview?” ‘I’ll say that it’s because of fatigue that I didn’t pay attention to the wet road caused by the snow.”

The two girls who were standing outside heard. the conversation loud and clear. If it was not for Rachel pulling her, Jolly would have just barged into the room to interrogate both the men.

“Why are you stopping me? Jolly had turned crimson with rage. “It’s the relief goods for the victims! They’ve been waiting this whole time and yet, Robin Gunson has messed up everything! He must’ve lost his mind because of money. How dare he lay his finger on the relief goods!”

“I’m afraid that it’s not because of money.” Rachel’s gaze stirred with mixed feelings. “And it’s not something that Robin can do all by himself.”
