The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 541

“At first, I thought it was strange, but we didn’t see him much at first. Now that we see him every day, it does feel weird now that you’ve mentioned it,” Rachel replied.

During the past three days, all of her energy was spent on taking care of Justin. She could not care less what Nathan was addressing her as.

“So, why is that?”

“I think only you could ask him.”

Justin tried asking, but Nathan did not have a nice attitude. Most of the time, Nathan was impatient with him.

Rachel was deep in thought hearing that.

After dinner, Justin sat in the living room while she went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

“Miss Hudson, please let me. You don’t need to do these things. Please take a rest.” Nathan blocked Rachel in her tracks, not letting her move.

However, she did not listen to him and insisted, “We’ve been staying here, not doing anything at all while you took care of us. If I can’t even contribute to this little chore, we’d feel really bad.”

“Miss Hudson, you don’t need to be courteous with me. If my master knew I allowed you to do chores, he’d scold me.”

“Why?”

“Because you are Miss Hudson. There’s no reason for you to do the chores,” he contended.

“Let me ask you a question, Nathan.” She changed the topic.

“Please do.”

“Why do you keep calling me Miss Hudson? Who asked you to do that?”

Nathan was stunned at her question.

Yet, Rachel did not stop asking, “Was it Mr. Keaton?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“I don’t know.”

“How could you not know? Nathan. Tell me the truth. What did Mr. Keaton tell you? Why are you protecting me?”

He scratched his head. “Miss Hudson, it’s no use asking me. I really don’t know why.”

Even though he was tall and burly, looking like the boss of a gang, he was a simple guy. After spending some time with him, they realized that he was easy to read. He wore his emotions on his face and would not lie.

It seemed like he did not know the reason.

Getting no answer from him, Rachel walked out of the kitchen and shook her head at Justin.

Justin frowned in response.

They could only wait for Mr. Keaton to show up and ask him. Either that or they could ask Mr. Brook, who referred them to meet Mr. Keaton. However, the most important thing now was how they were going to leave Enistan.

“I wonder how Jolly and the rest are doing?” Rachel leaned on the sofa and sighed.

Justin asked, “What about Lush Enterprise? No news from them at all?”

“That’s the weird part. I was sure Jolly took Leroy away during the wedding, but there was no news from Lush looking for him at all. They didn’t even come looking for trouble with us.” She was at a loss.

In theory, if Leroy, the groom, ran away during the wedding, Mrs. Bennett would have been furious. She would order people to look for him no matter where he went, but there was nothing from them. It was abnormal.

“Once we return to Riverdale, it’ll all be clear,” Justin answered.
