The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 240

Chapter 240

“On-do you know me?” Amber frowned. “I don’t think we’ve met each other before, though?”

“We haven’t, but Charlotte’s shown me your picture and she said that you’re an annoying old witch.”

“What did you just say?!” Amber’s expression turned all of a sudden. “You little b*stard! Capture him for me!”

Upon hearing that, Samuel turned around and ran off. As he scrambled to get away, he kept a protective grip on the pancakes in his arms but unfortunately, he was in a rush and the pancakes, which had been cut into smaller pieces, fell to the ground.

At the back, the tall blokes stepped on the pancakes as they chased after him.

“Bam!” Suddenly, one of them slipped on the pancakes and fell to the ground. At the same time, the guy behind him tripped over him and both of them fell on all fours. Thereafter, they struggled hard to get up from the ground.

“You two imbeciles! Hurry up and get him for me!”

Meanwhile, Samuel had already made his way to the entrance of the alley and he was quite pleased with himself. However, he suddenly saw a strapping figure right in front of him and he hastily halted in his tracks as he nearly crashed into the guy.

The clicking sound of high heels against the ground rang out once again. “You’re just a silly kid. Do you actually think that you can get away?”

Just then, Samuel’s expression stiffened. “You guys better not lay hands on me! Otherwise, my daddy and mommy won’t let you get away with this.”

“Stop with your bullsh*t! You’re just a b*stard! Just because you’ve fooled the others doesn’t mean that I’m oblivious. You’re not a Burton kid and Justin doesn’t even give a hoot about you. I can’t lay hands on that darn girl but that doesn’t mean I can’t do anything to you!”

Amber then continued, “Once I capture you and chase Rachel away, I’ll have plenty of time to make my way back to the Burton Family.”

And so, Samuel was forced to retreat by the huge bloke in front of him while the two blokes from behind had also caught up with him. Despite Samuel being quite agile due to his size, he couldn’t quite handle all three of them as he was just a child, after all.

At that moment, just as the strapping bloke in front of Samuel reached out his huge palm to grab Samuel, the bloke suddenly screamed in pain. The man then clutched his head and fell to the ground. It was quite lucky that Samuel managed to dodge the man as he almost got crushed underneath the guy.

Samuel was stunned for a moment before his eyes brightened when he saw the person who’d just turned up. “Mr. Wade!”

Victor was currently holding onto a golf club and he reached out to pull Samuel to stand behind him. Then, he stared coldly at Amber and her two thugs who were standing across from him.

“Victor?!” Amber’s expression changed.

“I can’t believe you still recognize me. We haven’t seen each other for quite some time now, my dear ex girlfriend.”

“Excuse me?! Who’s your ex-girlfriend?” Amber replied indignantly. “Why are you appearing everywhere?! Are you stalking me?! Hand me that little bistard!”

“I dare you to mention ‘little b*stard’ again!” Suddenly, Rachel’s voice rang out from behind Amber.

Upon hearing that, Amber shuddered in response. She turned around and saw that Rachel had three to five hulking blokes behind her. Somehow, they had arrived unnoticed and blocked the entrance to the alley. Hence,

Amber and her thugs were stuck in between them and Victor, with no path to escape.

This was unexpected to Amber, and it seemed that the hunter had now become the hunted.

“You… You guys…”

“I expected that you wouldn’t just take this lying down so recently, I’ve been here waiting until Samuel and Charlotte enter their school before leaving. I can’t believe you’re so lacking in self-restraint; you just failed in your efforts to drive me and Justin apart from that phone call you placed last night and today, you’ve gone straight after Samuel.”

Rachel moved forward menacingly as Amber’s face paled bit by bit. Just then, the latter reprimanded her lackeys, “What are you waiting for?! Get them!”
