The Silent Wife

Chapter 151

On the corridor of the second floor, Justin walked toward the entrance of the master bedroom. There wasn’t any movement in the room whatsoever. He couldn’t believe that Rachel was able to sleep like a log since it had been so long after he brought Amber back. Suddenly, he felt anger rising within him.

A tipsy Justin opened the door with a loud crack. “Rachel!”

There was no one in the room, but he could hear the sound of water splashing. When he noticed the water seeping out from the slit of the bathroom door, his expression changed.

“Rachel!” He rushed toward the bathroom before noticing that the door was locked. After he kicked the door open, he immediately saw the body in the bathtub while the bloody water continued to drip from the tub. There was a blood-stained dagger on the washstand, and the stain had already dried.

Rachel had already lost consciousness as her head rested on the side of the bathtub with a peaceful look. However, her left hand was still submerged in the water while blood continued to flow from her wrist.

Justin’s mind went blank in that moment as his expression hardened. Then, he dragged Rachel out of the bathtub with a loud splash and roared, “Prepare the car!”

When he ran into Amber, who was wrapped around a towel, she shrieked before staring at what happened in disbelief. “Justin!”

“Move away!” he snapped, causing her to move away in fear. Without explaining anything, he carried Rachel downstairs before he yelled, “Get the car ready! We are going to the hospital!”

He had never expected her to attempt suicide by slitting her wrist. Rachel really hates me to the core, huh? She would rather die than to talk to me, nor is she willing to stay in the same house as I do.

Meanwhile, Amber ran after them before she watched as Justin carried Rachel into the car and sped off, leaving her to stand at the doorway wrapped in a towel like a fool.

“Miss Hudson, the weather is chilly and you’re going to catch a cold if you wear like that.” Jennifer’s voice rang out behind Amber.

As she was unable to release her pent-up anger, Amber snapped, “Who are you to tell me what to wear?”
