The Silent Wife

Chapter 296

Chapter 296

Rachel suddenly took a step back while furrowing her brows. Even though the obvious resistance in her eyes had quickly flickered away, Justin was able to capture it.

“I’ll pretend that I didn’t hear what you said earlier.” After that, she turned around and walked off.

He was left dumbfounded for a few seconds before he suddenly caught up to her with annoyance and blocked her path. “I’ve always wanted to ask you what you think of our relationship. You are Charlotte’s mother, and you live in the same house as me. Doesn’t that make us lovers?”

“No,” Rachel answered firmly. “I’m glad that you know I’m Charlotte’s mother. After Jefferey was imprisoned, I said that I wanted to move out, but I decided to stay in the end. Have you forgotten why?”

Justin was slightly infuriated. “I thought it was because you were angry at me.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have the time to play these childish games with you.”

“Aren’t you angry at me now?”

Looking at the raging man in front of her, she felt that she needed to draw a line between them.

“To me, you’re just my ex-husband in a legal sense and Charlotte’s father. If you really want to know what our relationship is, I want us to be business partners. We are just friends.”

Friends? Justin gritted his teeth. “Same as Hernandez and the others?”

A frowning Rachel reluctantly nodded her head.

She hated to admit that to her, Hernandez and Julian were friends that felt like family whereas Justin wasn’t even close.

However, she didn’t wish to be too harsh on him since it wouldn’t benefit her future plans if they had a fallout.

“What if I don’t want to be your friend?”

“Then, I’ll just move out of the house?”

“You…”
