The Silent Wife

Amber told Sue the entire story from A to Z in an innocent demeanor, labeling Rachel as a vain and scheming woman who had coaxed her younger sister. As she stood beside them, Rachel watched Amber’s pretentious act coldly with an expressionless face. She didn’t defend herself under Sue’s disgusted and contemptuous gaze, for she knew it was unnecessary to do that. Since Sue didn’t like her, she would never believe her.

As she expected, Sue looked askance at her as though she was looking at something filthy. “No wonder you don’t want to leave—you’re after the Burtons’ family fortune. What a vain and scheming b*tch you are!”

Amber smiled smugly upon seeing this. Then, she moved close to Rachel and whispered in a voice audible to only both of them, “Dad said you must go along with me.”

Rachel turned her head suddenly, and her pupils shrank. What do you want to do?

Naturally, Amber could understand Rachel’s sign language. She smiled and replied in a whisper, “You don’t have to care about that. You just have to go along with me, or else… I’ll tell Dad about it.”

Seeing how the sisters were communicating, Sue looked at Amber and asked in puzzlement, “What did she say to you?”
