The Silent Wife

Chapter 274

Chapter 274

On the phone was Robin recounting the meeting earlier.

Jason grew skeptical. “Things must be more than meets the eye. It’s strange how Justin was so obedient to the mute girl.”

“Anyway, Godfather, just leave it to me. Don’t you worry about anything.”

“Right, good luck, then. The sooner you get it over with, the sooner my burden ends.” Ending the call, Jason put down his tea cup.

Beside him was his assistant, who refilled his cup. “What did I say, Master Jason? With Young Master Robin back, the situation is as good as resolved.”

Justin countered, “Robin can be hasty with his actions. His life in Burton Group has been too smooth, so he wouldn’t be able to detect it if someone were to plot against him.”

“Isn’t it too soon for that? Young Master Justin wouldn’t dare to touch him.”

“Touché.” Jason nodded. “Once the problem in Phase Three Land is settled, I’ll have something to offer to my old man in exchange for the funds.”

“Aren’t you going to give Old Mr. Burton an explanation?”

“What for? It’s in the past now. Justin got injured, and he’s determined that I was the one behind it. Thus, an explanation can’t save me, but a solution just might, and charging at them head-on is just out of the question.” Jason was already a middle-aged man, yet he was constantly rebuked by Arthur. Not wanting to face the humiliation, he was always reluctant to tarry in Riverdale. “Remind Robin to stay clean and be wary of that mute. Justin isn’t the only backing she has, but Carter Enterprise as well.”

“Right away.”

It was already afternoon when Rachel carried a fruit basket and a fresh bouquet to the hospital. As soon as she entered the hospital, she bumped into Julian.

“Why are you here, Rae?”

“I’ve come to visit.” Rachel showed him the fruits and flowers in her hands.

Julian nodded. “Is it about the news? You’re here for Mr. Onfroy and his family?”
