The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373 No One Can Visit

“You’ll need Dr. Peters’ signature to enter the intensive care unit. If you’re visiting, you still need to look for Dr. Peters first.”

“Really?” Rachel was taken aback. “Yes. Mr. Gunson came to the ward earlier to visit, but he was stopped by the security guard. He’s still making a fuss at this moment.”

Mr. Gunson? Robin?

Rachel immediately walked toward the elevator. As soon as she got out, she heard a noisy sound coming from the ward in the distance.

“I am the president of Burton Group, personally selected by Old Mr. Burton. Why do I still need the attending doctor’s signature just to visit my grandfather? Are you out of your mind?”

“Sir, this is the instruction left by Old Mr. Burton’s family, so we can’t change it without his permission.”

“Who left the instructions? Now that my godfather is not in Riverdale and Old Mr. Burton is sick, the entire Burton Family listens to me.”

“Listen to you? What is your relationship with the Burton Family?”

Just as Rachel was still standing in a daze, she heard Julian’s voice coming from behind her. He had rushed over without her noticing. Julian nodded toward her as a greeting before he walked toward Robin.

“Robin, just because Jason is your godfather doesn’t mean that you are from the Burton Family. It doesn’t matter if Old Mr. Burton recognizes you or not. Our hospital only looks at the opinions of the patient’s family and the patient himself.”

When Robin saw that it was Julian, his face sank. “How are you worthy of telling me what to do? You and your mother leeched off the Burton Family for so many years and plan to do so for the rest of your life, and now you’re acting as Justin’s dog?”

“Watch your words, Robin Gunson.”

“Watch what? Am I not telling the truth? That woman, Sue, took you to live in the Burton Residence for more than 20 years. Who can’t tell that she wants to rise in status? Now that Justin is also useless, you should stay away from him if you know what’s good for you! Then, I’ll consider feeding you!”

Rachel didn’t expect that Robin would be so arrogant to the point where he would just run his mouth. At this point, even if Jason was present now, he wouldn’t be able to control him anymore.

Julian had always had a good temper, but he was not a pushover either. He took out his phone and made a call. “Hello? I’d like to call the police. Someone is causing trouble in the hospital here.”

In an instant, Robin’s expression changed. He stretched out his hand to snatch Julian’s phone away, but Julian stopped him with one hand. As Julian often conducted surgery, he had much more strength in his hands than a pampered young man like Robin. He grabbed Robin’s wrist effortlessly, causing the latter to wail in pain.

“Julian, let go, let go of me! If you don’t, I won’t hold back anymore! Argh!”

Julian threw him away in disgust and said coldly, “The police will be here soon. If you continue to cause trouble here, I’ll send you to the police station.”

Robin was still about to rebuke when the assistant next to him helped him up. “President Gunson, let’s just leave first. We can come back another day.”

Robin held his arm with one hand and gritted his teeth. “Julian, just you wait!” Saying that, he leaned on his assistant and walked away quickly.

Julian looked around. “Everyone, go and continue your work. Don’t gather around here.”

After the crowd scattered, Rachel walked over and asked, “Are you okay?”

Julian replied in a soft voice, “I’m fine. Justin expected Robin to come over a long time ago, and he was afraid that something would happen, so he asked me to keep a close eye on the ICU. If I don’t give my signature, no one can enter.”

Rachel nodded. “How is Old Mr. Burton?”

“He’s still in a coma. Currently, his body is fine and he still has a chance of waking, but if he doesn’t wake up after this month, he would most likely…”

Even if Julian didn’t finish his sentence, Rachel already knew what he meant.

“Does he still need surgery?”

“There isn’t a need for that at the moment. Old Mr. Burton’s age is too old to bear the physical burden of undergoing so many operations.”
