The Silent Wife

Chapter 321

Amber pushed Noah over the railing right in front of Rachel.

The man fell from the five-story high deck and plunged into the river with a splash. While the lights on the deck were luminous, the view around them was pitch black. At the same time, the ship was shrouded in fog.

Not even a single soul discovered that a life was lost on that fateful night.

“You killed him.” Rachel covered her bleeding neck and took a step back.

At this moment, Amber’s face was livid, but her eyes were horrendously red. She crouched down to pick up the knife. Even though it was covered in blood, she didn’t mind it one bit.

As she stared at Rachel, she sneered, “He deserved it. He tortured me for six years. He should have gone to hell a long time ago! I’m about to get the formula, so he wasn’t supposed to stay alive anymore!”

The blade reflected the moonlight as she pointed the knife at Rachel. “Tell me, what’s the password?”

With a pale face, Rachel held the railing behind her with one hand.

“Don’t expect anyone to save you. Do you think Noah was foolish? Do you believe he’d release Jolly just because you told him to do that?”

Rachel felt her heart skipping a beat. “What did the two of you do to Jolly?”

“Don’t worry. He wouldn’t dare to harm Jolly; she is just being detained somewhere. We were planning to release her after we got the password from you and left this place.” All of a sudden, Amber started laughing. “He shouldn’t have been so greedy. Now, he’ll never leave this place again; he’ll have to stay in this river forever! Alright, stop wasting time. Tell me the password, and I’ll give you a decent death.”

Apart from telling her the password, Rachel had no other way to stall for time. Left with no choice, she told her a set of numbers.

An eerie light lit up behind Amber’s eyes as she fished out her phone to contact someone from the pharmaceutical factory. Right then, she realized that there was no connectivity in this place. “What’s going on?”
