The Silent Wife

Chapter 189

Chapter 189

Julian didn’t even look at his mother. Instead, he asked Rachel, “Are you alright? Is Charlotte fine?”

Rachel shook her head.

“You guys go on ahead. I’ll deal with this.” Julian held Rachel’s shoulders and pushed her out of the ward.

If it weren’t for the fact that Sue was Julian’s mother, Rachel would have doubled down on the insults and violence. The moment she got out of the ward, she ran into someone familiar. “I thought you’re on a business trip.” Rachel was surprised.

“Not until tomorrow morning.” Justin answered.

“So everything Sue said earlier…”

“I heard it.”

Since he was acting calm, Rachel thought he was on Sue’s side, and she sneered silently. Guess they’re birds of a feather, huh?

Julian came out a short while later.

Before he could say anything, Sue went past him, looking furious. Apparently, Julian told her something, so she only glared at Rachel and left without a word.

Julian said, “My mother can be annoying sometimes, Rachel. Just ignore her.”

“It’s fine. I don’t mind.” Rachel smiled at Julian. “Thanks for helping me out. I mean it.”

At the side, however, Justin’s face fell.

Julian lifted his wrist and looked at the time. “Why don’t I treat you to a meal? As an apology for my mother’s behavior.”

“No need for that.”
