The Silent Wife

Chapter 221

Meanwhile, in the nightclub’s private room, Rachel’s eardrum was hurt by the sound of wine bottles shattering into pieces. “Don’t come over!” She walked around the table to evade Mr. Wayne as he approached her, but her head was getting increasingly dizzy. Something’s wrong with that glass of wine, she thought to herself. Indeed, she never expected that there would be something wrong with the glass of wine poured right in front of her.

“Stop struggling. It’s useless. You’ll lose all your strength very soon, so you’d better behave yourself and go along with me.” Mr. Wayne took off his suit jacket and reached out his large hands to her.

Rachel’s eyes blurred, and she fell on the carpet as she no longer had the strength to struggle. As her consciousness slowly faded away, she saw Mr. Wayne dragging her onto the bed. He began to unbutton his shirt in front of her, and his face was as greasy and disgusting as it had been six years ago. She broke down and cursed, “You’ll die a dog’s death!”

“It was Justin who led you to my bed back then. If someone has to die a dog’s death for this, he should be the one instead.” Mr. Wayne grabbed Rachel’s suit jacket and ripped it off her shoulders. Then, his oppressive figure instantly fell on top of her.

“Aaaah!” Rachel screamed, but Mr. Wayne immediately covered her mouth. “I don’t like it when you make a sound. That’s not exciting enough,” he said. Then, he took the whip off the wall and said, “Enjoy it, Mrs. Burton!”

Rachel immediately closed her eyes. Her body seemed to have predicted the pain brought by the whip landing on her body, for the tragic scene six years ago played itself over and over again in her mind.

Just then, a loud bang was suddenly heard, and Rachel didn’t feel pain as she had expected.

Before Mr. Wayne could swish his whip, he was suddenly seized by the neck from behind by a pair of hands. Right after that, a forceful kick sent him rolling out of bed, and he let out a blood-curdling scream as someone trampled on his cheek with their leather shoes. “Justin Burton!” Mr. Wayne’s eyes were bulging out of their sockets. This scene was so familiar; the only difference was that he hadn’t seen who the man before him was back then, whereas he saw the person very clearly today. “It’s you!” He clenched his teeth. “It was also you back then!”

Justin looked as black as thunder. “How dare you touch one of my people? You really think you’re indispensable to the herbal market in Riverdale, huh?”

“Aaaah!” Amid his shrill cries, Mr. Wayne covered his groin and curled himself into a ball, writhing about on the floor.
