The Silent Wife

Chapter 49

A week later, Nancy was discharged from the hospital.

Ever since Rachel indicated that she was about to regain her memories, Jefferey’s attitude toward her had warmed considerably. He called her multiple times in that week itself and invited her home for dinner

His behavior led her to confirm that her mother’s death was connected to the medication formula.

“I can take care of myself, Rae. Why did you hire a nurse?”

Inside her bedroom, Nancy was looking out through the door and she grumbled a little at Rachel’s waste of money.

As Rachel stacked a pile of clothing onto the shelves, she glanced up at Nancy with a smile. The nurse was introduced by Dr. Peters, she signed. She’ll come over every day only to help you make your meals and tidy up the place. If anything happens, she can also contact me in a timely manner.

Although Rachel hadn’t accepted Julian’s offer to help her find a place, she had accepted his assistance to introduce a nurse instead.

“What can happen to me? I’m fully recovered now.” After looking around for a moment, Nancy sighed. “It is true that this place is a little too large for a single person. It’s such a pity that you can’t come over to stay with me.”

Rachel lowered her head in guilt without much explanation.

Nancy had assumed Rachel was still living at Hudson Residence, in which Rachel saw no need to clarify the situation as she was considered a member of the Hudson Family.

“Dr. Peters is a good man, Rae. We should find an opportunity to thank him.”

Yes, Dr. Peters is a good man, Rachel agreed.

“How about this? Have him come over for dinner this weekend. I’ll make us all some pierogi.”

The moment she heard Nancy’s words, Rachel stopped stacking the clothes for a while and immediately shook her head. He’s an extremely busy man.

“Whether he’s occupied or not is his business because we have to show our gratitude.”

Knowing that she wouldn’t be able to change her grandmother’s mind, Rachel surrendered and agreed.
