The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 480

“Not here?” Harry scratched his head, completely oblivious to the gravity of the situation. “But that can’t be. I got up before dawn, but I did not see Mr. Burton coming out.”

“Where’s Frankie?” Rachel was like a cat on hot bricks and as soon as she finished speaking, the door at the side of the yard opened. With a toothbrush in hand, Frankie walked out while replying, “You’re looking for me, President Hudson?”

At his sight, she immediately walked up to him. and said, “President Burton is missing.” “President Burton?!” Frankie was stunned, then subconsciously glanced behind him.

“I dozed off last night and forgot to remove his infusion needle. Did something happen to him? Don’t hide anything from me.” Before Rachel finished talking, the curtains behind Frankie were drawn aside to reveal a gigantic figure within.

It was none other than Justin. As their gazes met each other, Rachel was dumbfounded. Frankie coughed and explained awkwardly, “Um, President Hudson, calm down first.

President Burton slept at my place last night.”

Justin was still confused, so Frankie told him, “President Hudson thought something happened to you because the infusion needle wasn’t removed…”

Rachel wanted more than anything to just disappear on the spot as she glared at Frankie. Couldn’t he have omitted that part? Frankie wasn’t too ignorant, for he hastily escaped with his toothbrush, leaving the two to stare at each other.

“How did you end up at Frankie’s place?” There were hints of anger in Rachel’s tone, for she was terribly shocked early in the morning. Justin said, “You fell asleep last night.”

“You could have woken me up. I was waiting to remove the infusion needle for you!” “I did try…” Justin hesitated for a while. “But you didn’t wake up.”

It was Rachel’s turn to feel awkward. After all, she had spent the day in a car traveling from. Baybrook City yesterday, so she was exhausted at night. She didn’t even know when she lay down to rest, so Justin’s words were quite believable.

“Hey, who built this snowman?” Suddenly, Harry exclaimed from a distance away. “This roly-poly actually looks kind of nice!”

Looking in the direction the voice came from, Rachel saw the snowman in front of her house’s entrance, which was as tall as half a person. Its head and body were both round and chubby, and it even had two branches for arms. Rachel immediately looked toward Justin. “You built this?”

He replied, “As compensation for the one that was ruined last night. Is this enough?” At the mention of the snowman last night, she instantly went red in the face. “What is wrong with you?”

Then, she was pissed as she added, “Do you even value your life anymore? You still had a fever, but you went outside in the middle of the night to build a snowman? What were you thinking?”

“The fever’s gone.” Justin’s voice was small and lukewarm, with hints of a smile inside it.

Even though Rachel was furious about him. making fun of her, when she saw the snowman in the distance, she still couldn’t help herself as she ran over to it. The longer she looked at it, the sillier it looked. She had never seen anyone build a snowman this rotund.

“Wow.” She turned around and said to Justin, “You should do this in Riverdale too. Charlotte will be pleased to see it.”

He replied, “Got it.” Over at the well, Harry and Frankie crouched together as they brushed their teeth. From the corner of his eye, Harry watched Justin and Rachel chatting away happily as they stood around the snowman, mumbling to himself, “I can’t believe Mr. Burton has this side to him.”
