The Silent Wife

Chapter 194

Justin looked at the time. “It’s getting late. Let’s talk about this after I go back.”

That made Amber stop talking, albeit reluctantly. A moment of silence later, she said, “Sure. Rest early.”

Justin hung up, then Frankie handed him a cup of tea. “Sir.”

“What is this about the studio?” Justin asked.

“The head director, David, canceled Miss Hudson’s show without a reason. And he added a new show in the same slot.”

“A new show?”

“It’s about Eastern medicine. Chris is the host.”

Chris frowned. “She’s ambitious. It hasn’t been long since she came back, but she’s trying to get her hands on everything. Everyone can see through her by now.”

“Is she trying to do something here?”

“Yes. Remarrying me.”

It was a simple response, but Frankie’s jaw dropped. “Huh?”

Justin never joked, and he looked serious about it. “She hid her identity and worked in a Hudson Pharmaceuticals branch nearest to me. Then, she found an excuse to stay at my place and warmed up to Charlotte. Now, she’s attacking Amber. Obviously, she’s trying to get back together with me.”

Frankie smiled awkwardly. “Sir, you lost your memories, so I’m obliged to tell you this. Your divorce didn’t go well, to say the least. That’s why Master Arthur wanted everyone to hide it from you.”

“It has been years. It might have been horrible, but she wouldn’t come back if she didn’t care.” Justin sneered. “But she thinks too highly of herself. She thinks she can come and go as she pleases? She had a baby with someone else overseas, got dumped, and wants to come back to me? I’m not running
