The Silent Wife

Chapter 120

Shutting the door, Nancy gripped Rachel’s arm.

“Why would you find him a job?”

Rachel, however, was dazed. Grandpa Irwin is our neighbor and he is always good to me. If he were to move in, you could take care of each other! Besides, you don’t know a lot of people in Riverdale, so it’s a win!

Seemingly anxious, Nancy frowned and mumbled, “You don’t have to worry about me.”

What’s wrong, Grandma?

“Irwin… However, Nancy stopped after muttering his name. “Nevermind. I’m sure it’s hard for him as well, being so old and living without his children. We’ll go as you wish, then. Plus, he gave us a lot of help back then.”

Revealing a smile, Rachel grabbed Nancy’s hand.

I know what you’re worried about, Grandma. Often, those who approach us come with ill intent, but not all people are evil, are they?

Besides, seeing Grandpa Irwin today reminded me of many fond memories from my childhood.

“Really?” Nancy asked, her eyes shimmering.

Yes.

Rachel sternly nodded her head.

At the sight of Grandpa Irwin, Rachel was able to piece together many fragments of her memory, including the one when he bought her a cotton candy from town and it was her mother that opened the door for him.

“Cotton Candy for Rae! Do you like it?”

“Say your thanks, Rae.”

Her mother whispered into her ears. The scene was rather unreal. After all, this was the first time Rachel had recalled it after twenty years.

Pondering on it, Nancy expressed, “Must have been fate. Some things are meant for you to remember.”

Very soon, Victor returned with the chives and Nancy promptly started making the dumplings.

Meanwhile, Rachel contacted the management team about the security post, which the administration kindly agreed to.
