The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 424

Rachel was away on business for several days. A nurse in the hospital sent a photo-Justin had brought her three meals a day to the hospital. He also played games with Jessica, and even pushed her downstairs for a stroll.

“They seem to be getting along pretty well, and they don’t seem to be in a feud as what the others said before.” Jolly saw Rachel’s cell phone and came over to comment, “She’s a little girl, anyway. How can she harbor so much hatred?”

“I’m sure there was conflict between them. According to the nurse, Jess picks on Justin every day, as if she’s trying to be intimidating. Yet, he doesn’t mind it at all.” “Even if he couldn’t deal with it, he has to. Who told you to treat her like your own sister?”

Rachel didn’t say anything. She thought that Justin couldn’t endure it for any longer, that the peace between the two was only superficial harmony. After all, the matter of human life was stuck between them, so how could it be possible for them to live in harmony?

However, a week later, she and Jolly came back from a business trip and they experienced it for real when they went to the hospital.

“Left, left, left!”

They were speechless. “Man, I already said that it’s on the left side. If you don’t defend well on the left, how can you defeat it?” “The left side is not the defense. It’s the main offense, and it’s you who should be defending.”

“Obviously it’s you, okay?” They were at a loss for words. “Forget it. Let’s go for another round.” At the door of the ward, Rachel and Jolly looked at each other.

Jolly shrugged. “What did I say? Don’t worry, Justin is an adult and he knows how to deal with it.” In the ward, Justin raised his head when he heard the chatter at the door on the second floor.

As soon as he saw Rachel, his eyes brightened and he immediately placed the remote control aside and stood up. “Rachel, when did you come back? Didn’t you say you’d only be back next week?”

Rachel said, “I’m done with my work, so I came back earlier and gave the rest of the paperwork to the secretary. We both came directly from the airport.” “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I would have picked you up at the airport.”

“Hey, hey, hey,” Jolly interjected between the two of them, folding her arms angrily. “Is she the only one here? Don’t you see a living person standing here who just came back from al business trip as well?”

Justin smiled. “Yes, but judging from the fact that the great Miss Jolly was traveling, I don’t think it shouldn’t be my turn to be concerned, right?” “Although that’s true, you still have to take care of me.”

“Fine, I’ve been taught a lesson.” It had become a habit for the two to meet and quarrel, but the atmosphere was obviously much better than before. After he rescued Leroy, Jolly’s attitude toward him took a 180- degree turn and they acted more familiar with each other.

Rachel didn’t have time to listen to them. She went straight into the ward and asked, “Jess, how are you doing recently?” Jessica stretched and leaned against the head of the bed with her hands on the back of her head and glanced at her plastered leg. “The doctor initially said that I would be discharged from the hospital this week, but Mr. Justin insisted on me staying until my plaster cast has been removed.”

Mr. Justin? Rachel and Jolly glanced at Justin at the same time. Jolly laughed and unceremoniously asked, “When did you join the generation of uncles? That sounds like you’re a generation away from us.”

Justin didn’t think there was anything wrong at first, but Rachel replied casually, “Jess is only seventeen years old, and the two are indeed quite different in age. It’s not an exaggeration to refer to him as an uncle.”

For a moment, his expression became stiff and he coughed, but he didn’t know what to say. Was he very old? “Since you can leave the hospital, let’s go out to eat at noon,” Jolly suggested. “Just tell the doctor first.”
