The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87

Rachel’s face was starting to contort from the grip.

The pain was making her cry, but Justin showed no signs of stopping. In fact, he gripped her even tighter. “Understand?”

Rachel nodded with difficulty, and her tears streamed down her cheek, falling onto the back of Justin’s hand.

“Have you seen Jefferey before you were discharged? Did he give you a listening device and asked you to install it in my car?”

Rachel nodded. The moment she did so, Justin’s grip tightened even further, almost crushing her face, and it suffocated her.

“I protected your grandmother, and this is how you repay me?” If looks could kill, Rachel would have been dead by now.

Rachel shook her head fervently and struggled with all her might, trying to explain herself. By accident, she toppled the glass of water and medicine on the table, splashing the water everywhere.

The sight of those medicines drove Justin further into his fury. He was reminded of something, and he flung her onto the bed.

The back of her head crashed against the edge, and she started seeing stars, while her consciousness started to fade.

“You’ve been working with Jefferey ever since you married me. You’ve been getting information he needs and using us to control your family’s company. And you plan to back out the moment you finish the job.”

No. I didn’t.

“No? Then what’s this?” He picked up the meds and hurled it at her. “Then what’s this?!” he roared.

Rachel was shivering with fear. When she finally saw what the meds were, she froze. Walt. Those are the birth control pills I put in my bag. She didn’t find it when Frankie gave her the bag back, so she thought they were lost. Why did they show up here?

“Finally remembered it? Anything you want to say for yourself?”

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

“You don’t know? You just don’t want to admit it, right? You want to cut all ties with us, right? Been contacting a lawyer for that as well, haven’t you?”

Rachel was petrified, and she gaped at him.

“You’re not going to get away with that!” He tore his clothes apart, flying into a rage, not unlike a beast.

“Aahh!” The pain finally made Rachel cry, and she shouted hoarsely.

Justin was pulling her halr, thrusting fiercely with every pull, as if he was releasing all his anger with each movement. “You’re not the one who can decide whether you get knocked up. Don’t even think of cutting off your ties with us. Not unless I get tired of you. You’re just an object, and don’t forget about that. This isn’t some place you can come and go as you please!”

Rachel struggled at first, but her strength left her eventually. Even though Justin was still humiliating her, she was already numb to it.

The heinous and inhumane criminal activity that would go unpunished went on late into the night. When he was done, Justin, now a rapist, stormed off and slammed the door shut, the impact causing

the room to shake.

Rachel was still staring up into the ceiling, but she couldn’t even feel an inch of her body.
