The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323 Using Jolly for Money Laundering

For some reason, as Justin listened to Rachel lambasting Ryan, he couldn’t help but speculate that she might be seeing him in the same light.

“Why are they so silent?” Rachel stared at the door and frowned. She had to check on Jolly and Ryan, as the notion that they were staying in the same place alone unsettled her.

All of a sudden, Justin took her hand. A startled Rachel turned her head and saw the man sporting a solemn expression. “I don’t know whether Ryan is really the kind of person you’ve described, but you need to know that I’m not the same.”

At that moment, Rachel was astounded.

Justin went on to say, “From now on, I’ll never hurt you using any excuse. If I do, I’ll die a horrible death.”

The way he made an oath stunned Rachel.

Amnesia was the most inconceivable thing to her ever. The man who used to be ruthless and indifferent was now making an oath to make her happy.

Unfortunately, she didn’t take the oath seriously, as she believed that the man was just trying to please her. Justin and Ryan are birds of a feather.

“Chris!” Jolly suddenly exclaimed. “Come here now!”

Rachel came to her senses and replied, “I’m coming.”

She took a glance at Justin, who then let her go.

They shuffled toward the living room before seeing that Jolly and Ryan were standing at the table, on which the gift box given to Jolly by Julia was placed.

The box was opened, and the hem of the wedding dress was hung over the edge of the box.

“What’s wrong?” Rachel walked over. “Why did you take it out?”

Jolly uttered, “There’s something wrong with this wedding dress.”

Rachel’s eyes fell upon the wedding dress. “What do you mean?”

“Look.”

The wedding dress was intricately made, as there were layers of laces. Jolly lifted the hem and took Rachel’s hand before leading her to feel it. There seemed to be some very hard objects in one of the layers. They had no idea what those were, but these objects felt as hard as stones.

After lifting the laces, they saw the interfacing in the middle of the dress where the objects were concealed.

If they hadn’t deliberately looked into it, they wouldn’t have discovered it, as the wedding dress was multi-layered.

“What are these?”

“I don’t know.” Jolly shook her head. “He discovered it.”

While they were having an argument earlier, they accidentally knocked the gift box over.

As soon as Ryan saw the wedding dress, he questioned Jolly about what was going on. Upon learning that it was a wedding dress given to her by someone from the club, he immediately realized that something must be wrong with it. He was eventually proven right.

“Is this some kind of new design?” Jolly ran her hand over the hem as she let her imagination run wild. “Maybe it’s for a massage effect or to keep the hem in place.”

“I’ve never heard of such a design before.” Rachel touched the dress and felt that something was off. “Why are these objects fixed inside? I can’t even move them.”

“We just have to cut it and see what’s inside.” Ryan’s voice reverberated in the room.

Jolly planned on selling the wedding dress, so she didn’t agree to it. However, she was unable to stop him as the man already had a pair of scissors in his hand.

The next moment, the interfacing in the middle was cut open. As soon as the objects inside it were revealed, all of them were dazzled by the icy glint. With narrowed eyes, they stared at the objects in disbelief.

Presently, they could see that a lot of diamonds as large as nails had been woven on the interfacing as these precious items twinkled under the light.
