The Silent Wife

Chapter 70

Chapter 70

Rachel was confused because she had never met those people whose names Janice had just mentioned. While Rachel never thought that she had anything to do with them, she couldn’t explain why everything seemed to revolve around the prescription.

“Despite the lack of evidence to prove the connection between your return to the Hudson Family and those people’s deaths, I can’t help but think these two matters are somehow related, if we consider the timeline.” Janice then asked in a hushed tone, “Did Grandma talk to you about the prescription?”

Upon hearing Janice’s question, Rachel was stunned. When her grandma was still in the hospital, she had mentioned the prescription to Rachel, but her explanation was interrupted by other matters at that time,

No. Rachel gestured as a sign of denial.

Janice appeared to be disappointed. “It’s alright. Let’s not talk about it then. Anyway, I’ll definitely help you to leave Riverdale. At the same time, you can be rest assured to know that I’ll take care of the rest of the matters.”

Thank you.

“You‘re welcome. Anyway, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll make a move first.”

Rachel nodded as she watched Janice entering a jeep through the café window. Deep down in her heart, she felt sorry for lying to Janice although she didn’t have a choice. After all, Rachel’s grandma used to educate her about how words were capable of misleading people. Thus, she decided not to discuss something she wasn’t sure about until she understood what was going on.

As soon as Rachel returned to the library, her colleague had informed her, “Rachel, Miss Patterson came earlier. She wants you to deliver these files to the person in charge of the engineering department in Burton Group.”

Rachel was taken aback as she was reminded of her casual encounter with Tina at the meeting the day before. Alright, thank you.

It was later in the afternoon when Rachel arrived at Burton Group’s lobby where she typed a few words on her phone to show it to a lady at the front desk. ‘Hi, I’d like to meet Director Roland of the engineering department!

The receptionist gave her a strange look. “Do you have an appointment?”

‘I’m from the City Council Library. I’m here to discuss the library’s architectural history with Director Roland!
