The Silent Wife
Chapter 52
Chapter 52
Facing Hans’s surprised look, Rachel could only force a bitter smile. Yes, I am indeed married, but for rather embarrassing reasons.
The library security guard hurried over but was blocked by Tina’s bodyguard, and the two parties were at a standstill.
Hans was calm in the face of the ruckus. “I don’t care about your background. We are living in a civilized and lawful society now. Do you really think you’re beyond the law?”
“Who do you think you are?” Tina snorted mockingly and turned to Rachel. “I underestimated you. I have heard that you have a complicated relationship with Julian Peters, and now, there’s another man! Does Justin know that you are spending his money on men?”
In the face of public condemnation, Rachel clenched her teeth and was about to stand up for herself when Hans shielded her behind him.
She looked up with a shocked expression. The next second, he confronted Tina, commenting, “Battery and assault of others in public places will result in five to ten days of jail. As for slander and defamation, serious cases will warrant a maximum of three years’ prison sentence.”
His words were confident and persuasive. Even Tina, who was used to having her own ways, was secretly taken aback by the seriousness of the offense.
Just then, a bodyguard stepped in and advised her in a whisper, “Miss Burton, if this gets out of hand,(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) I’m afraid that it’d be hard for us to explain to Mr. Burton. Let’s leave now.”
Tina was recently released by Jason after being grounded for a while. If the Burtons got hold of her misdemeanor, she might be grounded again. By then, it would be harder for her to regain her freedom.
“You stupid girl! We shall see. This thing between us is not settled yet!” After glaring at Rachel, she immediately scurried out of the building with her bodyguards.
“Nothing to watch here. Ladies and gentlemen, please disperse.” The security helped to disperse the crowds that had gathered.
Hans turned around to check on Rachel. “Are you alright? I’ll bring you to the hospital for a checkup.”
She shook her head. I’m fine, thank you.
He took a better look at her and said with heartache, “Look, your face is swollen. Your injury must be quite serious. Since my place is not far from here, I’ll bring you home to dress your wounds.”
Tina did not hold back at all when she delivered that slap. As a result, Rachel’s right cheek was awfully swollen, and she looked disheveled, with a head
