The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin)
Chapter 518

The woman beside Mr. Burton has a delicate appearance. Though she doesn't appear stunning at first glance, her temperament is gentle and demure, especially those eyes. Those eyes of hers are just so... tender. Shannon narrowed her eyes and said flatly, "If that's the case, then I won't ask any more questions. Mr. Burton, please come in."

Rachel was going to follow Justin in, but Shannon turned slightly and stopped her very naturally. "It's just giving something. Mrs. Burton, you don't have to go in, right?"

"Mrs. Bennett." Justin frowned and was about to say something but was stopped by Rachel. She squeezed his arm slightly, but her face did not change. "Mrs. Bennett is right. I won't go in to disturb you. I'll wait for you outside." Justin was worried, but Rachel appeared calm and composed. "Go."

Shannon said, "Don't worry about Mr. Burton. When you come out, I will definitely return your wife to you intact."

"Mrs. Bennett, you think too much." Rachel smiled slightly and added, "How could my husband be worried about this?"

Seeing how insistent Rachel was, Justin couldn't say anything else. "I'll be out soon."

"Yeah." Watching Justin enter the ward, Rachel felt nervous.

Shannon's questioning voice came from her side. 'Mrs. Burton, you must be quite tired all the way to Enistan, right? Why not have a cup of tea with me and take a break?"

"Sure."

The hospital was truly a luxury infirmary under the Grandeur Group. The cafe on the first floor had baristas who came from overseas and were highly skilled in crafting perfect cups of coffee. Rachel and Shannon sat opposite each other, and the surroundings were silent.

"My husband has known Mr. Brook for more than 10 years, but he has never heard that Mr. Brook has a good relationship with Mr. Burton. Mrs. Burton, how did you come to know Mr. Brook?" Shannon was forthright with her question.

Rachel's heart was pounding madly. She didn't know who Mr. Brook was at all, and Justin didn't tell her what was going on. She only knew that it was a friend Justin knew.

"I've never been very involved in my husband's affairs, so I'm not too sure."

"Don't you ask? Do you usually not ask about Mr. Burton's business relationships?"

Rachel nodded. "That's right."

"What do you usually like to do as a pastime?"

"I enjoy cooking, and I take care of the children."

"You have children?"

"Yeah, we have two children." Rachel smiled slightly and deliberately looked envious of Shannon. "I am not as capable as you, Mrs. Bennett, and I admire a woman like you who can help her husband manage such a large family business." Shannon looked at Rachel with contempt in her eyes. She took a sip of coffee and said softly, "Actually, it is a good idea for everyone to replace their own position in life. There is no need for every woman to be a career woman."

Even so, her tone and gaze were clearly disgusted that Rachel was just a stay-at-home parent.

"This hospital seems to be your family's property, right?"

"Yeah."

"The buildings are very interesting. Hospitals of this style are rarely seen in the country."

"It used to be a church. My brother bought the land and developed it into a hospital. By following the previous architectural style, a church-style hospital was built."

"If you don't mind, can I look around?"

Shannon nodded. "Of course, but I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

"It doesn't matter. I can just walk around by myself. After all, I'm still waiting for my husband."

"Go ahead." Shannon glanced at her watch, then got up and left. Her indifference and unfriendliness were written on her face without many disguises.

Rachel felt very fortunate that she had used such a method to let this woman put her guard down on herself. Homemakers were indeed the most easily overlooked existence.

She must feel that I don't understand anything. As soon as Shannon left, Rachel sent a message to Jolly. 'Where are you? I'm in.'

The phone vibrated. 'You came in? I'm behind the inpatient building. There are many guards here. I haven't found a way to get in yet."

'Stay there, I'll replace you.' Rachel put away her phone and walked out of the cafe.

Jolly was bold enough despite knowing that there were bodyguards guarding the inpatient department. She was still wandering around without being afraid that she would be seen. When Rachel found her, she was hiding behind a bush with her bottom high in the air. Seeing Rachel, Jolly quickly grabbed her and squatted down. "Why did you come in? Didn't I tell you to watch outside?"

"Justin brought me in."

"Ah?" Jolly was startled. Rachel explained the matter quickly, and Jolly's eyes narrowed. "Come on, can't he call you earlier so that I don't have to go over the wall? Why don't you just bring me in?"

"No one expected that you would climb over the wall, okay? I couldn't stop you!"

"It's not the time to talk about this. Have you entered the inpatient department? Did you see Leroy?"

"Yeah, but I didn't see Leroy. However, Mrs. Bennett was inside. I guess maybe she didn't want Leroy to see Marcus so early."

"What do you mean?"

"Until a person dies, we will never know what decision he will make. Marcus, as the boss of the Lush Enterprise, has seen everything in his life. How could he simply leave the Lush Enterprise in the hands of a woman?"

Rachel looked at the inpatient

department building in front of her,

then said quietly, "I guess if he has a chance to meet Leroy, he will definitely replace a way to put Lush Enterprise into Leroy's hands instead of letting him become a woman's puppet and making the entire Lush Enterprise become the back support of the Grandeur Group."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Do you know who the person who married Leroy is?"

"Isn't she the daughter of the boss of Grandeur Group? Mrs. Bennett's niece."

"Yes, this is the crux of the problem. Mrs. Bennett will rely on the niece to control Leroy. If they have children in the future, Grandeur Group can justifiably control the Lush Enterprise."

Rachel had met Shannon, which further verified her thoughts. This woman was one to reach for the stars; she would never be satisfied with the current development of the Lush Enterprise. Otherwise, she would not let Leroy marry her niece either.

Jolly was born into a wealthy family. Although she was spoiled since she was a child, what Rachel said was common knowledge to her.

"I have to replace Leroy as soon as possible."

"He shouldn't be around here."

"Then where will he be?"

"Perhaps in the villa on Idyll Mountain." Rachel's eyes crossed the hospital's fence and landed on the distant mountain, “Justin told me that Mrs. Bennett has been diving on Idyll Mountain all this time, so it is convenient for her to go back and forth to the hospital."

The safest way t to watch someone was to keep them under one's nose. Jolly thought about it as the corner of her eyes. swept across the inpatient department. She suddenly thought of something and asked doubtfully, "By the way, you haven't

told me yet. What is Justin

here?"
