The Silent Wife

Chapter 259

“I cooked extra. It’ll be a waste to throw them away.”

Despite what Rachel said, Justin still proceeded to take a seat happily to have breakfast. To him, the oatmeal was a sign of her showing goodwill.

Seeing that, Samuel, who had been by the side, silently shook his head with a sympathetic expression. Look at how pathetic he is. He’s ecstatic over a bowl of oatmeal.

After sending the two children to school, Rachel drove to the suburbs alone. The Riverdale Penitentiary was located on a vast empty land. Some said that the surroundings were wide and empty to prevent the inmates from escaping. After all, it was hard to hide in plain sight.

When Jefferey was brought out, she thought that she’d be hit by waves of emotions, but it was quite the

contrary. She was so calm that she even surprised herself.

It had been a while since she saw him, and he had visibly aged; his gray hair had turned completely white. He looked like an old folk who didn’t have much time to live. At this moment, she said, “You must’ve not expected to see me here, visiting you.”

On the other side, he sneered after hearing that. “What is there to be unexpected about? Aren’t you here to see how bad of a shape I’m in now? That’d help ease your hatred toward me for giving your hand in marriage to the Burton Family.”

“Burton Family?” The light in her eyes dimmed. “Compared to the other things you did, forcing me to marry Justin was nothing. You should bear the consequences of your actions. Although you’re being punished, it’s not enough to make up for everything you did. Think of all the people you’ve killed and the sins you’ve committed. Do you think the truth can be buried when people are dead?”

“Why? Are you trying to catch a slip from me?”

“Do I have to do that? The prosecutor’s investigation period for my parents’ case has already passed. You can still pay for your sins when you die and see them in the afterlife.”

Throughout her little speech, he listened with a disdainful look. “Are you done?”
