The Silent Wife

Chapter 83

Rachel rested her head against the pillow, looking at Janice curiously. What did you guys talk about?

Janice was sitting beside the bed, peeling an orange. “Hudson Pharmaceuticals’ contraband. Wanted to know if he’s looking into it. Makes it easier to see you using that excuse.” She gave half the orange to Rachel.

He admitted it?

“Of course not. He’s not stupid. Businessmen hate getting involved with us. If he admits to it, he’s gonna have to help us, and that means we’ll be going to his company a lot. You think he’ll let us do that?”

So are they really looking into Hudson Pharmaceuticals?

“I have no idea.”

Rachel was obviously surprised.

“Hey, don’t give me that look. Everyone knows the Burtons have been antagonizing the Hudsons for a while now. And from what you told me, I can see what he thinks about the Hudsons. I don’t know much

about business, but it’s important to know everything about your competitor. That’s why they must have been looking into the Hudsons. As for what they’re investigating, it doesn’t really matter.”

You’re trying to wheedle something out of him?

“And I failed, obviously.” Janice looked at her. “Hans is right. Justin is more complex than he lets on. You’re right to leave him.”

Rachel paused for a moment. If it weren’t for him, I would have been gone forever.

Worried that Justin might get suspicious, Janice didn’t stay for too long. After all, there were people guarding Rachel 24/7 now, and Janice knew they’d report everything back to their boss-Justin.

Back at Burton Group, Frankie came into Justin’s office with a bag. “The repair shop’s mechanic sent this over, President Burton. Probably the madam’s personal belongings. She must have left it in the
