The Silent Wife

Chapter 209

“Nope.”

Samuel shook his head as he turned to the bedroom and added, “But Mr. Peters and Godmother came home with us, and they’re chatting outside right now. It sounds like they are talking about Daddy.”

“Quickly, go listen to what they’re saying.”

Hastily, Charlotte expressed, “Something big must have happened.”

Rolling out of the bed, Samuel tiptoed to the door and cracked it open before putting his ear against the thin

gap. In the living room, Julian was seen to be applying some blood-circulating ointment on Rachel’s arm.

Justin some kind of bruiser? Is he sick in the head? How dare he lay his hand on you under broad daylight! That man would have murdered you if we weren’t here!”

“He asked me about the safe box. He must’ve figured out something.”

“Have you forgotten that he lost his memory? He doesn’t remember anything from the past.”
