The Silent Wife

Chapter 72

Chapter 72

The tall figure ran toward Rachel. As the headlights shone on his back, it almost blinded her. Before she passed out, she could hear a familiar yet strange voice. She recognized it as a specific man’s voice, but his panic and concern was alien to her. It must be me hearing things.

The black car then drove without a hitch on the highway toward Riverdale.

Rachel was roused by the warm breeze in the car. She drowsily opened her eyes to see the man driving at the front seat. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)He looked solemn from the side as his slender fingers were on the steering wheel.

“You’re awake?” Justin saw her from the back mirror. “Are you all right?”

She moved her arms, only to realize that a coat was draped over her. It smelled of cologne and tobacco. After being stunned for a while, she clenched her fists before reaching out to sign. I‘m fine.

“Are you hurt?”

No.

“I’ll take you to the hospital.”

It’s okay, I just need to head home and rest.

Even though the heater in the car was already turned on, Rachel was drenched since she was at sea and her body still remembered the sensation of walking for 2 hours in the ocean breeze. As a result, she shivered at that thought.

Thank you for coming to rescue me. I’m a little tired; I want to sleep for a bit.

Justin frowned before he slightly nodded. “Go to sleep then.”

There was no further movement from the back seat. Then, he glanced at the mirror to notice that she had already curled up into a ball under his coat. She looked like a stray cat that had been bullied and his frown deepened at that sight.

Rachel actually hadn’t slept. She had buried her face in the coat, thinking that Justin knew what Tina was going to do to her since he was able to quickly locate her, yet he had allowed it to happen.

Justin and Rachel were still a long way from Riverdale and they had remained silent throughout the entire journey.

The car finally pulled up at the garage of Burton Residence. Then, he carried her out from the back seat. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)She was shivering as she hid under the coat and even her lips were pale.
