The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 517


Idyll Mountain was situated in the southwestern part of Enistan, far away from the bustling city. Compared to the city, which had one of the most expensive housing in the whole world despite its suffocating small space, the rich still preferred the metropolis.


Grandeur Hospital was located right at the foot of Idyll Mountain. A black car pulled up at the entrance of the hospital. The security guard came over to check, and the driver presented the documents.

After passing the documents back to the driver, the security guard leaned over to look at the backseat. However, there was a partition between the front and back seats of this car, and the partition was currently in place, so the security guard couldn’t see what was going on in the backseat.


The security guard said carefully, “I’m sorry, but please roll down the partition. I have to verify all the personnel entering and leaving this place.”

The driver looked at him in dissatisfaction. “What’s wrong with you? I showed you the documents, didn’t I? Our boss doesn’t like meeting strangers.”

“I’m sorry, but that’s a rule.”

“A rule? From who? Do you know why our boss is here? Who will be held responsible if the matter is delayed? You? Can you even bear the responsibility?”

The security guard’s expression stiffened. He didn’t know what to do. Just then, a cold man’s voice came from behind the partition. “It’s okay. It’s a good thing to be devoted to one’s work. He can check.”

With that, the partition slowly rolled down. With the passenger seat in the way, the security guard could see two figures in the backseat, one male and the other female. They were both dressed with attention to detail, especially the man, who had an unusual aura. He didn’t look like any common person.

“There are only two people in the documents. Pardon me, but who is this lady beside you?”

“My wife.” The man took the woman’s hand as he explained calmly, “If it’s against the rules, I can give a call to Mrs. Bennett and have her talk to you.”

At the mention of Mrs. Bennett, the security guard’s face paled. “No, it’s okay. Since this is your wife, of course, it’s not against the rules. Please, enter,”

With that, the security guard took a few steps backward and let the car through. The car drove into the hospital.

Grandeur Hospital was huge, and now that it wasn’t accepting any new patients, it looked even emptier. The employees here probably outnumbered the visitors and the patients right now. Of course, if they were right, then there was only one patient right now.

Rachel sighed in relief after the car entered the hospital. She put a hand to her chest as she said, “That was scary. The security guard saw me before, so I thought he’d recognize me.”

Justin said, “Are you okay?”

“Yes.” Rachel nodded, her heart still beating rapidly. “But I still don’t know where Jolly is right now. If she weren’t in such a rush, she wouldn’t have to enter by climbing over the wall. If someone catches her, it’ll be quite difficult to resolve the situation.”

“I’m here.”

The simple two words echoed in the car, and Rachel was stunned. For some reason, she suddenly noticed Justin still holding her hand. He hadn’t let go of her ever since they entered the hospital, and she herself forgot to retract her hand..

Her palm was hot.

“Oh right, you haven’t told me how you came here?”

“As soon as President Burton heard about Leroy, he knew that you and Miss Carter would come here, so he sent someone to check out Enistan right away. He didn’t have time to tell you before he received the notice that you and Miss Carter had already departed, so he rushed here in case something happened to you two.” Frankie was the one driving at the front, so when he heard Rachel’s query, he immediately explained the situation.

He had been serving Justin for many years, so he knew what Justin was like. Justin definitely wouldn’t want to say too much, so he could only put in a word for Justin so that Rachel could see more of Justin’s good side.

Rachel was stunned. “You’ve been looking into Enistan all this while?”

“It’s not a big issue; anyone can do that with the help of a detective agency. You don’t have to worry about it.”
