The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 522


“It seems that you have been criticized a lot.”


Rachel winked at Justin and said proudly, “I’m not like you; I’m not as harsh as you are toward employees and causing lots of complaints.”

“Oh?” Justin raised his brows, obviously skeptical, but he did not refute.


After a long time, Rachel really went to do as she said, and she even took him to witness it just to verify who was harsher in the eyes of the employees and was criticized more, but the ultimate results were unexpected. Moreover, she was even annoyed at the results.

Rachel finally concluded angrily that this society was much more tolerant of men than women.

After eating, it was completely dark. The roads in Enistan were not wide. Most of the narrow roads could only allow two vehicles to pass through. As soon as the green light was on, pedestrians hurried across the roads. In fact, the dazzling streetlights made the city look astounding.

“Why are there so many people over there?” Rachel pointed to the distance, where there was a large crowd in front of the hemispherical building.

“It’s the wharf. They’re lining up to take the cruise.”

“A sightseeing cruise?”

There are sightseeing cruises, while some are just used as means of transportation to go directly to the other side.”

Rachel put her hands on the railing by the road. “Speaking of which, I have never been here in Enistan before.”

“I’m not very familiar with it either. I used to only come here on business.” Justin looked as Rachel gazed toward the distance. “Would you like to go on a cruise?” he asked.

“Huh?” Rachel was taken aback by the sudden suggestion. Turning her head, she met Justin’s serious gaze. She hesitated for a moment, whereupon her eyes slowly lit up. “Sounds good.”

Sightseeing cruises did not have a long queue. After all, it was not cheap. There was an open- air bar on the deck on the 4th floor of the cruise ship, and tourists were sitting around the surrounding tables in twos and threes.

When approaching the railing, Rachel suddenly felt dizzy and frowned. Fortunately, Justin, who was behind her, was quick-witted and grabbed her arm.

“I’m fine.” Rachel felt better without looking down over the railing.

“Don’t worry, this is not Riverdale, nor is it the Jockey Club’s ship. It’s just an ordinary sightseeing boat.” Justin could see at a glance what she was thinking..

The trauma left by Rachel’s previous ship experience was too much, so when she got close to the railing of the cruise ship, she couldn’t help thinking of the scene at that time. It was from here that Amber and Noah fell off.

Although Rachel shook her head and said that she was fine, Justin still didn’t let go of her hand and dragged her to the inside of the deck. “Don’t overthink. Let’s go have something to drink.”

As glasses of cocktails glistened under the dazzling light of the cruise ship, the sea breeze blew and ruffled their hair.

Rachel fished a rubber band out of her bag and tied her hair casually with it, revealing her fair neck. Then, she looked toward the shore with her face raised, looking just like a beautiful woman in a portrait and attracting many people’s attention.

In the distance, several foreign men had already raised their glasses toward Rachel, making no secret of their appreciation and expectations for further communication. Most foreigners were eager and forthright, just like Hernandez.

Rachel just smiled slightly, nodded, and made no other response. It wasn’t until Justin returned from ordering two glasses of cocktails that those men’s eyes narrowed, and they couldn’t help but envy him for having such a demure and elegant beauty as his company.

“This one is a little lower in alcohol.” Justin pushed a glass of wine toward Rachel. Rachel took a sip and looked at Justin suspiciously. “You’re lying, right? There’s no alcohol in it. Did you make me a non-alcoholic drink?”

Justin was helpless. “I didn’t do that.”
