The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186

Rachel crossed her arms. “Mary bought some honey right after you wired her a hundred thousand, and Charlotte’s allergy acted up right after that. Yet you’re trying to… shift the blame.”

“No. I didn’t do this.” Amber tried to explain herself. “Justin, I didn’t do this.”

“I’ll get someone to look into this.” Justin looked at her icily.

“Daddy!” Charlotte called out to Justin. He quickly wiped off his fury and went into the ward.

“Justin!” Amber wanted to go inside too, but Rachel stopped her. “What do you think you’re doing?” Amber looked irritated.

“I know what you were trying to do. You did this to Charlotte so you can put the blame on me, right?”

“Nonsense! What proof do you have?”

“Oh, I have a lot of it. I can show it to you if you want. It’s a one-way ticket to prison, and I don’t mind giving it to you early.”

Amber was getting mad. “Why did you come back? What do you want?”

“What rightfully belongs to me. Justin and Charlotte.”

Amber stared at her in disbelief. So she’s here for Justin! Fury overwhelmed her, and she raised her hand against Rachel, but Rachel caught it before she could even move.

“I’m not the old Rachel from five years ago anymore. You can’t do as you please to me now.”

“Let me go, Rachel!”

“Listen up, Amber. Lay a finger on Charlotte again and I’ll make sure you’re ruined.” Rachel shot her a terrifying glare. “I wonder if Old Mr. Burton will let you marry Justin if I were to, oh I don’t know, upload the video where you’re having sex with Noah?”

Amber stopped moving all of a sudden and stared at Rachel in disbelief. There wasn’t anyone in the staircase. Julian was pacing outside, leaving only Rachel and a terrified Amber inside.

Rachel was playing Amber and Noah’s sex video from five years ago on her phone. There was no sound, but judging from the clear resolution, she knew it’d be loud enough for everyone to hear. “E Enough…” Amber’s voice was shaking. She tried to snatch Rachel’s phone, but Rachel dodged her.

Rachel looked at her icily. “Stand right there. You don’t want Justin to see this, right?”

“What do you want?”

“That doesn’t sound like begging to me.”

Amber bit her lip, almost drawing blood. A long while later, she finally said, “Please. I beg you.”

“Kneel before me,” Rachel answered calmly.

All the color drained from Amber’s face, but she knelt before Rachel in the end. “I beg you, don’t upload the video. We’re sisters, right?”

“Hold on a second.” Rachel turned on her phone’s camera and aimed it at Amber. “Alright. Repeat what you said earlier.”

Amber froze up, and an awkward silence fell between them. A long, long while later, Amber finally said,

“I beg you, delete the video. Don’t upload it, Rachel. We’re sisters, right?”

“And what about Charlotte?”
