The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 416

“Let’s eat and try it on later,” Rachel said to Charlotte. “Okay.” After putting the dress back into the bag, Charlotte looked into another package. “Mommy, why did you also buy men’s clothes? Is it for Daddy?”

Silence washed over the room when the words left her lips until Rachel responded with a soft. yeah’. Meeting Justin’s surprised eyes, she explained helplessly, ‘My pajamas are really unsuitable for you, so I bought you some clothes while I was shopping today. Go and change into them.” At the mention of this, Jolly giggled and teased Justin deliberately. “Why? You don’t like it?

Whatever it is, I think you look rather comfortable in Chris’ pajamas.” Chuckling along, Justin placed aside the things he was holding, wiped his hands and quickly went to change in the bedroom.

After he closed the door, his daughter’s childish voice echoed from outside. “I see you’re very concerned about Daddy, Mommy!” “That’s not true, Charlotte, Jolly said. “That’s how you should be to a guest. It’s called courtesy.”

“No, it’s not. I’ve not seen any host buying clothes for their guests.” “You have a sharp tongue for your age, little lass. Be careful that you can’t get married in the future!”

“That’s fine. As long as I can always be with Mommy and Daddy together, I don’t want to get married at all!” Listening to the voices outside, he stared at the bag in his hands while a heartwarming look crept over his expressionless face.

In fact, things were already great as they were now; Rachel didn’t regard him as her enemy and even cared for him kindly. He was already. content and satisfied, and there was nothing else he would ask for. All he hoped was to be able to take care of them a little while he was staying here for the period to make up for his deeds in the past.

It was already late at night, and after Rachel tucked in the children, Jolly was still on the phone in a call. Without even the need to think, she knew who Jolly was on the phone with. “It’s almost 11 p.m. You should let Leroy off,” Rachel said, standing behind the bar counter and pouring a glass of water.

Since Jolly finished dinner, she had been on the phone with Leroy, but he was still working. Later, he needed to start filming, interview and do makeup. Yet, she refused to hang up and went on in a non-stop chatter. Taking a glance at the wall clock, she then. exclaimed, “Gosh, it’s already 11 p.m. You should go to bed, Leroy.”

“No, you sleep first.”

“You first!” A shiver ran down Rachel’s spine and she felt goosebumps all over her skin. ‘Jolly Carter!” Jolly stuck out her tongue at her, but finally, she returned to her room obediently after Rachel gave her a warning glare.

Just when Rachel was about to return to her room, her cell phone rang. “Hello?” Holding her phone, she paced to the balcony. “Are you finished with work?”

Julian’s voice on the other end of the line sounded a little tired. “I just got home after a day of meetings.” “Did you realize anything different at home?”

“Different?” he repeated in astonishment. “What’s different?” Rachel chuckled. “Take a look in your closet.” Sounds of footsteps echoed in the call, and after a while, he said, “All these clothes are…”

“Your present. Take them as your early birthday gift. “Is this considered cutting corners?” Despite what he said, he clearly sounded delighted. “You already prepared all the clothes for the entire winter, and they’re all from the same brand.”

“Why? You don’t like it? If you don’t, I can still return them to the store.” “Of course I like them.” A helpless Julian explained, “But it’s just too much. I can’t wear so many clothes.”
