My Mute Bride Chapter 63


    Chapter 63 Working Together


    The next morning, Rachel insisted on going through with the discharge procedure. Therefore, Julian


    took half a day off to send her back to the Burton Residence.


    “My mother is not at home today, so you can take a good rest for a day,” he urged as he helped her


    back to her room. “Even if you are recuperating at home, you should rest well. Don’t move around as


    your injury will take at least three to five days to fully heal.”


    She nodded. Thank you.


    Then, Julian nced at a figure hiding by the door before he deliberately raised his voice and added,


    “Some servants in the family have stayed here for a long time and have thus forgotten their identity.


    Although I am not the head of this house, I still have the power to dismiss servants.”


    The shadow at the door shifted for a moment before it was Mrs. Duncan who walked out. She


    sheepishly answered, “Young Master Peters, I just care about Ra—I just care about Mrs. Burton and


    wanted to see whether there is anything I can help with.”


    Julian snorted coldly. “Is that so? You’re not here to spy on us?”


    At that, Mrs. Duncan’s face paled.


    He warned, “I’m going back to work in the afternoon, so you better serve her well. If anything happens


    to her, my brother won’t let you off the hook.”


    She hurriedly nodded, not daring to say anything more.


    When he left, she stood in the doorway and looked at Rachel before speaking in an odd way, “Mrs.


    Burton, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll have the kitchen prepare it.”


    Rachel shook her head. I don’t have much appetite. Don’t mind me; just close the door for me.


    “You need to eat a little. I’ll have the kitchen prepare something light for you.”


    Mrs. Duncan’s uncharacteristic manner left Rachel feeling puzzled, but Rachel thought that her


    behavior was a result of Julian’s words just now. So, Rachel didn’t think much about it.


    “Please rest first and I will send up the food tonight.”


    Once Mrs. Duncan left, Rachel carefully got out of bed and opened her suitcase. Then, she ced the


    small wooden box that her mother left her into the canvas bag she usually took with her. Rachel did not


    intend to bring many things with her when she left Riverdale as a little savings and her mother’s items


    would be enough.


    At night, Rachel ate some food before she felt tired. Then, she pulled the covers over her and went to


    sleep. At this time, the sound of an engine roared in the courtyard. It wasn’t long before Amber helped


    Justin into the living room.


    “Oh, Amber, what’s wrong with Justin? Has he been drinking?” Sue eximed and went forward to


    help.


    “Madam Parham, Justin seems to be drunk. I’ll send him up to rest.” Amber had a concerned look.


    “Miss Amber, you drank a lot too. Are you alright?” Mrs. Duncan wanted to lend a hand, but Sue’s


    nce had stopped her from doing so.


    Then, Sue instructed, “Mrs. Duncan, go and search for some hangover remedy and send it upter.


    Amber, you should send Justin to his room. It’s the second room on your left on the second floor. Don’t


    enter the wrong room.”


    Amber nodded as she met Sue’s gaze, trying to suppress her excitement that even her hands that


    were supporting Justin trembled. Sue smiled meaningfully and added, “Amber, please take good care


    of Justin.”


    “I will, Madam Parham.”


    After she ced Justin on the bed, Amber carefully probed him. “Justin, are you okay?”


    However, Justin remained unresponsive as hey on the bed.


    Upon seeing that, she carefully removed a white paper bag from her purse before she turned her back


    on him to pour the substance from the bag into a cup of water by the bed. “Justin, drink some water.


    You’ll feel better.”


    As he was knocked out from the alcohol, he did not react as she poured half the cup of water down his


    throat. After she ced the cup aside, she then climbed onto him and pulled off his shirt.


    At that instance, the man’s wheat-colored chest waspletely exposed in front of her while his cold


    and handsome face was like the embodiment of desire such that she couldn’t help but want to leap on


    him.


    While Amber kneeled on his body, she began to remove her own clothes.


    In his state of drunkenness, the man suddenly opened his eyes. A startled Amber paled with fear as


    she stammered, “Y-You’re not drunk…”


    In the next second, the man’s gaze drifted up before he fiercely rolled the woman over and pressed her


    down. As his alcoholic breath came toward her, she looked into his handsome and drunk face.


    Suddenly, she came back to her senses and calmed down. After drinking so much tonight, how could


    he still be sober? Not to mention, she had given him that packet of pills!


    While the man ripped her clothes, she immediately went all in. Moving around to circle the man’s neck


    with her arms, she called out to him in a soft voice, “Justin…”


    At this time in the living room on the first floor, Sue listened to themotioning from upstairs and


    she couldn’t hide a smug smile. She waved her hand toward Mrs. Duncan before she said, “There’s no


    need to send it.”


    Mrs. Duncan understood and ced the hangover remedy aside.


    “By the way, that mute—”


    “Don’t worry, I’ve included a sufficient amount of sleeping pills in the food given to her earlier. She won’t


    wake up tonight, so she definitely won’t ruin anything.”


    “That’s great then. This is such a golden chance, so she must not ruin it. She’s just a useless mute, so


    how can she even begin to fight for a ce in the family? Dream on,” Sue snarkily replied.


    She knew that Justin had invited Amber out for dinner, so she guessed that they would be intimateter


    at night. After all, she had confidence in Amber’s wiles and tricks. All Sue needed to do was to go with


    the flow and take care of that mute for them.


    “Madam, isn’t it a bit too risky for us to do this?” Mrs. Duncan looked concerned. “If outsiders know


    about this, isn’t this bad for the reputation of the Burton Family?”


    Sueughed. “Who will spread this around? Amber?”

    Mrs. Duncan looked startled. “Young Master Justin will me us for this, though.”


    “What does this have to do with us? Amber was the one who brought him back and we can’t control


    what they doter, right? Don’t think so much about it. We didn’t do anything.” After saying this, Sue


    yawned and went toward the bedroom. “I’ll get a good night’s sleep tonight.”


    It was alreadyte at night, so Rachel was in a deep sleep and having a dream. Suddenly, she vaguely


    felt like someone had pulled her up as the cold breeze snaked into her pajamas, making her shiver and


    subconsciously stretch out with her hands to pull the quilt up. However, before her hand could even


    reach the quilt, she was pressed down and something entered her body in the next second.


    “Ahhh!”


    The déjà vu feeling invaded all Rachel’s limbs, causing her to cry out in pain and shock. Then, she was


    jolted awake from her dream and when she opened her eyes, she saw the man who was riding on her


    body.


    Justin! How could he be here!


    Cold sweat instantly broke out from Rachel’s back at that sight. She wanted to scream, but she couldn’t


    as she desperately tried to escape this nightmare. This must be a nightmare.


    With bloodshot eyes, Justin looked like a beast that had escaped its cage and was nearly ripping her


    apart. No matter how she struggled, he had her in his grip. Next, the sweat slid down the scars on the


    man’s face andnded on her face as it mixed with her tears.
