The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 532


Someone muffled Jolly’s scream with their hand before she could make a sound. As she lifted her knee to attack the man in his weakest spot, she stopped in the air immediately when she saw his face. I almost ruined my certain happiness for the rest of my life with a knee strike.


Leroy released her once she calmed down. “Why are you here?”

His words triggered her anger, so she smacked. him on his chest, causing Leroy to grunt as he took a step back.


“Why am I here? What do you think? Do I look like I’m here to attend your wedding?”

“You shouldn’t be here.”

“But I am! They allowed me to enter! Didn’t you want the answer to why I’m here? I’m here to steal you from the bride!”

At that, Leroy said bitterly, “We already broke up.”

“I don’t care! I didn’t agree with that decision! I regret it! Who gives you the right to break up with me?”

Jolly, we aren’t kids anymore. We can’t keep our life going with only enthusiasm. If there is a chance that I might endanger your life in the future, I’d rather we never met each other.”

Leroy was gentle and composed like usual, but also determined to cut ties with Jolly. Even though he wanted to rush down the platform and embrace her tightly the moment he saw her at the wedding, he kept calm. He knew he couldn’t do that, even if he wanted to keep her in his life. “You can be free without me.”

“That’s what you think. You think you’re doing this for my own good.”

“I have one question, though. Are you fine with risking your family and friends’ safety because of me, just like what happened to your parents last time?”

Jolly froze at Leroy’s question. Her cell phone chose that moment to ring, and it was a call from Rachel. Jolly didn’t plan to avoid Leroy as she answered her phone impatiently before him, “Hello?”

“Jolly, where are you?” Rachel sounded worried. “I found Leroy,” Jolly said as she raised her head to watch him and croaked, “But he doesn’t want to go with me.”

“Jolly, listen to me-”

Leroy couldn’t hear their conversation, but he could see Jolly’s eyes shining as she listened to the caller.

Ending the call, Jolly then took the direct approach as she stared at the man intensely. “You insist on breaking up with me only to protect me and the others around me, right?”

He scowled as she placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him against the wall to stop him from getting away. “What if I tell you that my parent’s disappearance last time has nothing to do with Lush?”

“But that’s impossible.”

“Ryan did it.”

Leroy’s eyes widened at the unexpected answer. At the same time, Rachel and Justin were still at the banquet hall.

As the call ended, she turned her attention to him and asked, “Did Ryan really do all these things? Is he even influential in another country? How did he know where Mr. and Mrs. Carter were going for vacation?”

Five minutes ago, Justin received a call from Frankie to report his findings. Frankie had found out that Ryan was the culprit of Jolly’s parents being trapped in the elevator during Springfest.

Once Frankie finished his report, Justin asked Rachel to call Jolly. Justin expected Leroy wouldn’t leave with Jolly easily since he had scruples about putting Jolly’s family in danger, so he wouldn’t risk repeating it.

But what if Mrs. Bennett never thought about setting them up?

“Frankie told me that Julian was in Seranka during the Springfest.”
