The Silent Wife

Chapter 33

Chapter 33

The atmosphere in the car almost felt like it was frozen.

Justin looked like he was still trapped in his dream as he hadn’t loosened his grip on Rachel’s wrist. His sharp gaze slowly turned out of focus as he looked in her direction, and it seemed like he was looking at someone else through her.

At this moment, she was too terrified to budge an inch.

“Mr. Burton, we‘ve reached the hospital.”

The driver’s announcement managed to snap him out of his thoughts, clearing the haze before his eyes as he began to get a clear look at the woman in front of him. Almost immediately, his expression turned back to his usual cold look before he blurted, “Get down.”

Not daring to delay further, she quickly obliged by grabbing her tote bag and got out of the car.

As she watched the MPV take off from the hospital’s entrance, she heaved a sigh of relief. However,

she was still dwelling on what happened earlier as she rubbed her wrist that was held forcefully. Out of instinct, she turned her wrist several times to ensure that it was still intact.

This man is scary even in his sleep.

Meanwhile, Justin was still in a trance after the car had left the hospital.

As the driver held the wheels, he asked with a worried look, “Mr. Burton, did you have a nightmare again just now?”

Justin’s thick brows furrowed as his expression turned stoic.

It had been years since he last dreamt about the big fire.

Human’s memory was bound to fade off as time passed. No matter how hard he tried to remember, his memory of her seemed to be gradually fading away.

He couldn’t recall when was the last time he remembered her face. All he could remember was a pair of eyes filled with tears in the big fire. Every time he tried to take a better look at her face, the dream would end.

Earlier, he saw Rachel’s face on the girl in the fire.
