The Silent Wife

Chapter 203

“Let’s not talk about that. What’s the matter?”

“In your email, you stated that Justin has the videos and rejected news articles from that time, but I couldn’t find them in his safe at home. It didn’t look like he would keep them anywhere else in his house.”

Thoughtfully, Janice admitted, “Five years ago, he went to the investigation hall to look for me not long after you left.”

“Why did he look for you?”

“I’m not sure. My secretary told me that he brought some documents, but I wasn’t at the office at that time. So, we agreed to meet on another day, but he didn’t show up.”

Documents? Rachel narrowed her eyes. “What kind of documents?”

“I didn’t get to see them, and I couldn’t contact him. After that, his attitude toward the Hudsons took a 180 degree turn. From harboring deep-seated hatred and using any means to get rid of them from Riverdale’s market, to supporting their every move. Since I wasn’t able to meet him in person and the Burtons kept a tight lip on everything, I couldn’t find out anything about the situation at that time.”

Suddenly, Rachel realized something. “This must have something to do with his amnesia.”

“Justin has amnesia?” Janice was surprised to hear so. “When did that happen?”

Rachel shook her head. “I’m not sure myself, but he didn’t recognize me when I first came back. Up till now, he still doesn’t remember what happened between us back then and even forgot that he was abducted by human traffickers when he was a child.”

“That explains it. I couldn’t wrap my head around his sudden change of attitude toward the Hudsons before this.”

“I’m afraid he probably doesn’t even remember what the video evidence was anymore.”

Hearing this, Janice furrowed her brows. “Seems that way. But it seems a bit weird. Even if Justin has lost his memories, why did the Burtons have to hide it from him and even agreed to his marriage with Amber?”

“It must be Old Mr. Burton’s doing. At that time, he did say that he didn’t want Justin to dwell on what happened when he was a child, so he made me leave.”

“So, the Burtons are keeping him in the dark.”

“Exactly.”
