The Silent Wife

Chapter 197

Justin’s statement caused an uproar in the crowd.

Rachel was in disbelief when she heard what he had just said.

Holding on to her shoulders, he pulled her up from the chair so that they were facing the reporters side by

side.

“Rachel and I divorced peacefully and on good terms five years ago. Before that, we lived as an affectionate couple and never did anything to betray each others’ trust throughout our marriage. Even after our separation, we still respect each other and remain friends who wish each other nothing but happiness.”

“Even if you’re friends, how do you explain the child in the photo and Miss Hudson’s maternity records overseas?” the reporters pressed.

Upon hearing this, Justin questioned them, “What made you think that the child is someone else’s if he was born after the divorce? Both children are mine.”

With that, it sparked an uproar in the audience, and the camera shutter clicks filled the entire conference hall.

Shocked, Rachel was speechless.

Justin must have gone mad to have said such things.

“Therefore, the Burton Group and I will file a lawsuit against the writer and spreaders of the article. All media outlets that have forwarded or commented on the article are requested to delete all inappropriate remarks immediately. This rumor has caused me, Rachel, and the Burton Group great trouble. We’ll be sure to conduct a thorough investigation about this!”

At that point, the crowd was in chaos.

Besides a daughter, the president of the Burton Group also had a son. In addition to that, the mother of the child was his ex-wife. This sudden news was like a bombshell.

“I’m sorry, we’re done with the press conference today. Kindly make an appointment if you have further questions.”

Then, the site manager tried to keep the crowd under control while the bodyguards escorted Justin and Rachel out of the hall.

Running up to Justin, Rachel asked, “Why did you say that?”

“I did it for Charlotte, not you.”

Coldly, he added, “What would Charlotte think if she found out that you abandoned her for five years to marry and have children with someone else?”

As soon as she heard that, her face turned pale. “I can explain. It’s not what you think.”
