The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257

“Who are you calling a cutie?! I don’t like you!” Standing in front of Rachel, Charlotte glared at Hernandez angrily with her hands on her hips. “You! Stay away from my Mommy!”

Hernandez was amused.

“There, there. We’re running late, so go on in.” Rachel quickly asked Samuel to bring Charlotte into the school.

With that, Samuel dragged Charlotte into the school. Unsatisfied, Charlotte kept turning her head back and

squinting her eyes at Hernandez as a warning.

It was only after seeing the two kids enter the school did Hernandez turn around and say to Rachel, “Your daughter has a bad temper, unlike you.”

“Oh, really?”

“There’s a saying that goes, ‘One takes the behavior of his or her company’, so I think we have to speed up the matter about the lawsuit.”

Rachel was startled. “Let’s wait for a while more. There are still some matters that I would like to investigate.”

If what Janice said about Jason being the mastermind behind the abduction back then was true, then Rachel was determined to reverse the verdict for Nancy and send Jason to jail. Before achieving that, she shouldn’t be distracted by Charlotte’s matter.

Meanwhile, Samuel dragged Charlotte all the way into the classroom.

“Hey Samuel, why are you dragging me?!” Charlotte shoved Samuel’s hand away and grumbled, “Didn’t you hear that the guy is going to snatch Mommy away?”

“I heard it. Don’t worry, he won’t be able to win Mommy’s heart.” If he was able to, he would have done that long ago and didn’t have to wait until today.

“You’re saying that you’ve known him for some time, and so does Mommy?”

“Yeah. Hernandez is Mommy’s superior in Montenegro.”

“Oh no!” Charlotte put her head in her hands while wearing an anxious look. “Mommy is going to be snatched away! You guys knew each other while you were still abroad. He has more advantages than Daddy!”

“That’s not true.” Drinking his banana milk from a straw, Samuel mumbled with a slur, “If we follow your interpretation, Mr. Peters would have more advantage, but even he failed to win Mommy.”

“Uncle Julian is too introverted, but that guy is different from him! Also, don’t you feel that Mr. Wade has a crush on Mommy too? Mommy just has too many admirers!”

“That’s because our mommy is very outstanding!”

In comparison to Charlotte’s worry, Samuel was rather calm. After all, Rachel’s admirers would want to curry favor with him, so he has been treated kindly by them ever since young.

Charlotte was frustrated. “No way. If this continues, Mommy will be snatched away sooner or later. Samuel, you have to cooperate with me. Otherwise, I’ll never talk to you again.”

“Okay, okay, but what do you want to do?”

“I want to create opportunities to let Daddy and Mommy meet more often, but how can I do that?”

Seeing Charlotte’s troubled look, Samuel hesitated and thought of an idea in an instant. “There’s actually a way. Our school is going to hold a cross-country sports day soon, right?”

“Oh yeah!” Charlotte’s eyes glistened. “We can get Daddy and Mommy to participate in the sports day

together!”

On the other hand, Rachel did not show up in the morning meeting. After the meeting, Justin pondered about it and still couldn’t help but give Rachel a call.

“Hello?”

“What’s the matter?” Rachel’s voice came forth from the other end of the line.

“Are you in the office?”

“Why?”

“Why didn’t you attend the morning meeting since you’re in the office?”
