The Silent Wife novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275

Right in that instant, Jolly called, to which Rachel answered the call.

“Chris, I’ve sent some men to Westomania to rescue the child, and I’m heading there now as well. If you see Mr. Onfroy before me, be sure to tell him that his wife and child will be fine.”

“Wait, don’t come, Jolly. Have your men retreat too.”

“What? Why?”

“Robin’s target isn’t Mr. Onfroy, but us.”

The reason Robin set up a one-man game of abduction and blackmail was solely to draw Rachel and Jolly out. With the evidence falling right into his hands, he could deliver it to Justin and Arthur. Jason, on the other hand, sure had made full use of his hard-earned experience given how he managed to figure out the

existence of the string pullers behind Phase Three Land’s drama and even figured out that Rachel and Jolly were involved.

Soon, Robin brought Mr. Onfroy and his friends to Westomania. The night had set in, and one could hardly see a thing.

“I’ve followed you here. Where’s my daughter?” Mr. Onfroy was sitting in the car, frustrated.

After putting out the cigarette in his hand, Robin threw it onto the ground before stomping on the dying ember with his leather sole. “Patience, my guy. Our guest isn’t even here yet.”

“What do you really want?”

“To put the conspiracy between you, Rachel, and the bitch from Carter Enterprise into record, of course. Well, make sure you know what and not to say once she arrives.”

Mr. Onfroy’s face blanched. “What are you talking about? What conspiracy? Where’s my daughter?”

“Will you only regret when you see her body? Or are you sick of her? Seems to me you need some ‘incentives.” Having said that, he revealed his phone screen to Mr. Onfroy, where his daughter’s laughter could be heard. It was a video of her daughter riding the carousel alone that afternoon.

Seeing her daughter’s figure, Mr. Onfroy was visibly triggered. “Klee!”

Robin swiftly withdrew his phone. “So what will it be? Are you going to talk?”

Gritting his teeth, Mr. Onfroy changed his decision. “I’ll talk.”

“Rachel goaded you into doing this, right? And what did she have you do?”

“Yes, it was Rachel’s instructions. She told me not to move even if it costs my life. She even fabricated a conflict to anger the demolition team, causing them to start a brawl. She told me not to resolve the matter privately no matter how bad the feud became…”

Meanwhile, Robin recorded all of Mr. Onfroy’s words with a recording pen in his hand.

“Great. Now all we have to do is await their arrival. Just repeat whatever you just said, and change not a word. Capisce? Oh, you were asking for your daughter’s whereabouts, yes?” Robin turned to a dazzling Ferris wheel far away from them. “See that? The brightest spot is where your daughter is. She’s gonna have to stay there for a while.”

Upon those words, Mr. Onfroy’s face paled.

Robin then snickered. “But don’t worry. She has friends with her.”

After a long time, vehicles could be heard outside the theme park.

“Someone’s approaching, President Gunson.”

“Aren’t they a little too late? The sky’s so dark already!” Robin smugly gazed at the theme park’s gates, while Mr. Onfroy remained shocked, not daring to raise his head.

Disorganized footsteps were nearing in toward them. “There, right there!” Before Robin realized it, he was ambushed by flashlights that illuminated their murky surroundings, followed by the close-in of a swarm of reporters. “It’s Burton Group’s President Gunson! Mr. Onfroy is here too!”

Robin was stupefied. “Why are the reporters here?”

His assistant beside him, too, panicked. “I’ve got no idea. We disclosed not a thing about this!” As he was speaking, the reporters were already raising their “weapons” at them.

Hearing someone mentioning the cops, Robin immediately glowered and screamed at the reporters as he shoved away their cameras. “Stop filming!”

However, no one stopped to listen to him.

To the reporters, first-hand information was astronomically dearer than their own lives. They were always venturing into the most dangerous locations, yet the snaps of their cameras never stopped.

After a while, the police force and the ambulance arrived simultaneously, and Mr. Onfroy, along with his daughter, was rescued and sent to the hospital.

Mr. Onfroy took the ambulance out of the theme park. Although he was initially anxious, he quickly loosened up when he noticed Jolly was among the reporters, pretending to be one.

As expected, Burton Group was, once again, brought onto the justiciary channel. In the TV interview, Mr. Onfroy was seen holding his daughter tightly in his arms. With his reddened eyes, he angrily vented, “That Gunson guy abducted my daughter and came to the hospital, blackmailing me to follow him. And when we arrived at the theme park, he forced me to lie, and to tell everyone I was being manipulated.”

“The cops received an audio recording containing your statements. Robin Gunson gave it to us.”

“They were all the result of his coercion. My daughter was in his hands. There’s no way I’d dare to disobey him!”

Meanwhile, in the meeting room of the Burton Group’s Public Relations Department, everyone was silently watching the news. It was so quiet the flaps of a mosquito’s wings were audible. Undoubtedly, the problem they had yet to handle was once again brought up into the spotlight by the public.

Justin was utterly enraged. “Where’s Robin?”

Frankie answered, “It was said that Master Jason bailed him out, so he should be with Master Jason as we speak.”

“He left this pile of sh*t on my table, and he’s running away now?”

The staff members peered at each other.

Indeed, it was ridiculous.
