My Mute Bride Chapter 134


    Justin was stunned while Rachel’s eyes were brimmed with agonized tears.


    No one knew exactly how much pain Rachel had to endure after suffering from the loss of a child, but


    Justin still refused to let go of her.


    “We’ll still have kids in the future.”


    Justin’s hoarse voice that echoed in the stairway could make one feel surreal.


    Startled, Rachel stared at him and shook her head while stepping backward in disbelief.


    How can he say this?


    She was fuming. You still refuse to let go of me! What on earth have I done wrong?


    Rachel didn’t want to have anything to do with the man in front of her at all.


    Please let go of me! I’m begging you! If you hate the Hudson Family and Jefferey, go after them!


    All of a sudden, Justin’s eyes were filled with intense anger as Rachel’s words had irritated him.


    Rachel felt a sudden, immense pain in her wrist. Wailing in pain, she stood fixedly at the spot as she


    wasn’t able to retreat anymore.


    It seemed as if the fire was going to st out from Justin’s eyes, but his voice was as cold as ice.


    “Since you know I hate the Hudsons, then you should stop your wishful thinking.”


    Jefferey was responsible for the fire that happened 20 years ago, and none of the Hudsons could be


    exempted.


    “Don’t you always want to know why I hate the Hudson Family? I’ll tell you right now!”


    “20 years ago, Jefferey forcefully burned down a huge piece of the forest to drive out the residents in


    order to develop the area. A person died in the fire, and this person has saved my life before!”


    Rachel’s pupils dted all of a sudden as she was astounded.


    Someone… died in the fire?


    “A father’s debt should be borne by his children. Do I still need to exin this theory to you?”


    A fierce voice buzzed at Rachel’s ear.


    Perhaps it was because of the appearance of the human trafficker, or because Jefferey’s intention of


    leaving Riverdale was getting too obvious recently, the hatred that had been buried deep down in


    Justin exploded all of a sudden in these few days.


    Seizing Rachel’s wrist, he snarled, “Don’t you ever dare think of leaving Riverdale in this lifetime. I will


    make you stay beside me forever and pay for the Hudsons’ sin.”


    Rachel was frightened by the brutality in Justin’s eyes. She was engulfed by his coldness as it traveled


    rapidly from her eyes to her entire body.


    From the very beginning, this man’s intention was to take revenge on the Hudson Family. Both Rachel


    and Amber were just a tool for him to get revenge on the family. He wanted to destroy each and


    everyone from the family!


    Rachel was overwhelmed by intense fear. At that moment, her face turned ashen as she started


    struggling in terror.


    Let go of me! Let go of me!


    A voice screamed incessantly in her, which made her start struggling crazily.


    Annoyed, Justin seized her and pushed her against the wall all of a sudden. “That’s enough!” he


    roared.

    Rachel could feel her head buzz as the back of it knocked against the wall.


    Just then, the sound of a phone vibrating emerged.


    Justin’s eyes turned clear slightly.


    After ncing at the iing caller ID, he shot a cold re at Rachel. “You better remember carefully


    everything I’ve said to you today. Otherwise, don’t forget that Irwin and your grandma are not as fit as


    you. I’ll take you back to live in Burton Residence once I finish settling my stuff.”


    The cold voice echoed in the stairway.


    Click! The light in the stairway went off.


    Rachel inhaled deeply and started coughing intensely.


    When Julian arrived, Justin had already left.


    Rachel stood numbly against the wall.


    “What happened, Rachel?”


    Julian swiftly supported Rachel just as she was about to slump to the ground. However, when he


    grabbed her hand, he noticed the red finger marks and obvious bruise on her wrist.


    “Where’s Justin? What did he say to you?”


    Rachel shook her head helplessly as there was only one thought in her mind now-Justin would not let


    go of her and anyone who was rted to the Hudson Family. Not a single one!


    All the wishes she was having before this turned into ashes at once.


    Justin hated her as much as he hated Jefferey, yet she actually thought he once loved and pitied her-


    even if it was just the slightest bit. She even thought that he had anticipated their child to be born.


    How absurd!


    When Justin walked out of the hospital, the phone rang in his hand.


    The call was from Amber.


    “Hello?”


    “Hey Justin, guess where I am now.”


    “Now?” Justin took a look at the time on his watch. “I’m guessing you’re at the airport.”


    “You’re right, but not entirely.”


    Amber continued gleefully. “My dad told me that the matters abroad are not that urgent to be attended


    anymore and just so happened that I have a conference to attend. So, I’ming back from the airport


    now.”


    Justin furrowed his brows while his cold eyes deepened.


    “What’s the silence about? What a surprise, right? Let’s have dinner together tonight.”


    A momentter, Justin hummed, “Okay.”


    After hanging up the call, he got into the car.


    Frankie said, “I’ve just received news that Amber has turned back from the airport.”


    “I’m aware of it. It seems like Jefferey the old fox has noticed something.”


    “You think we’ve alerted him?”


    “Not necessarily, but Jefferey has always been prudent, especially when ites to matters that would


    affect his life-like capital transfer, so it’s expected that he would take a make-believe move.”


    “President Burton, what should we do next then?”


    “Get someone to keep an eye on Jefferey and Amber. Although they didn’t go abroad this time, they


    might go any other time.”


    “Yes, sir.”


    Frankie took a look at his phone. “By the way, President Burton, I have another issue to report. Mr.


    Jason has privately drawn some funds under his own name.”


    “And the amount?”


    “5 million.”


    Justin frowned. “Did you find out what he used the money for?”


    “I’m not too sure yet, but it seems like Madam Lilian has caused quite some trouble this year. If my


    guess is correct, he has taken the money to cover her ats.”


    Lilian was addicted to gambling, and Jason would often fork out money to clean up the mess. This was


    already a norm in the Burton Family.


    “Should we notify Old Master Burton?”


    “It’s such a big amount of money-Grandpa would eventually find out even if we didn’t tip him off.”


    Frankie nodded.


    What Justin meant was that they would not meddle with Jason’s family affair and would leave them to


    stew in their own juice. If Jason failed to return the money before the annual general meeting this


    year’s end, he would naturally suffer the consequences.


    In a private clubhouse at the outskirts of Riverdale, elegant music could be heard from inside a private


    room, apanied by a strong aroma of tea.


    It was gettingte into the night.


    Sitting at one end of the tea table, Jason slowly pushed a document toward the other party. “This is the


    agreement of patent transfer as requested. We’re quits now, but you must not let Justin know that I did


    this.”


    The other party pursed her lips and took a sip of tea calmly. “Fret not. Our families have been friends


    for so many years; I won’t put you in a difficult position. I’m just taking this opportunity to check up on


    Burton Group.”


    The woman’s voice wasn’t loud. The wind blew through her grey-brown fringe and exposed her


    exquisite facial features while her almond-shaped eyes were filled with subtle coldness.


    At that moment, a chill ran down Jason’s spine.
