My Mute Bride Chapter 158
Rachel had waited for a week at the hospital, but Justin never came. “Mrs. Burton, the discharge
procedures are all done, so let’s go.”
Jennifer came over with Rachel’s bag to help Rachel, who waved her hand.
I can walk by myself.
Back at the vi in the southern Suburbs, there were two bodyguards guarding the door like usual; it
felt like they were guarding a prisoner with three shifts among six of them.
Jennifer closed the door andforted, “Mrs. Burton, don’t mind them. Mr. Burton is also worried about
your safety, after all, there was an ident here before, and that,”
Before she finished her sentence, she knew she had spoken too much. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Burton, for
talking about something so sad.”
If it weren’t for those people barging in at that time, Rachel wouldn’t have lost her baby. Herplexion
was bleak as she barely smiled at Jennifer.
It’s nothing. Justin hasn’t returned from his business trip yet?
“Um, I’ll make a phone call and ask. You can rest for a while.”
Jennifer left with the phone while Rachel sat on the couch and took some newspapers from the coffee
table. The vi in the southern Suburbs had not been inhabited for quite some time, which resulted in
the newspapers umting on the coffee table during this period. Nevertheless, the one at the top
was thetest edition.
Rachel flipped through it and she was attracted by the front-page headline of the financial page.
President of Burton Group and Fiancée Set Up Charity Foundation to Help Lost Children.
The photo on the page showed Justin and Amber arm in arm as they smiled slightly at the reporters.
They lookedpatible together and the content of the interview was even more suggestive.
‘It is reported that when this charity foundation was established, Justin personally donated 100 million
for start-up capital as an engagement gift to his fiancée…
Rachel put down the newspaper and turned over to the older newspapers of the previous days. It was
only then that she realized that all the news since half a month ago were on these, and that the entire
Riverdale had known about the charity foundation he founded for Amber. While looking at the picture of
the man and woman standing side by side in the newspaper, Rachel’s hand holding the newspaper
trembled slightly. This is what Justin meant when he said that he was busy with a business trip abroad?
“Mrs. Burton, Mr. Burton said earlier on the phone that things are almost done and he wille back
tonight.” Jennifer came in from outside with great enthusiasm.
Rachel, however, was no longer in the living room. A slight clicking sound of the door closing came
from the bedroom and it echoed in the house.
When Jennifer fell asleepte at night, Rachel went to the backyard. The cold wind made her cheeks
freeze, and justing out of the house made her wince. She couldn’t help but wrap her jacket tighter
around her arms. After looking for a corner where the wind could not reach and making sure there was
no one around, she took the information sheets out of her pockets. Then, she took out a lighter and lit a
piece of it. Finally, she put the pile of information she brought into the fire one by one.
The past was meaningless, at least in today’s situation where things already came to this point. If she
revealed the truth, it would cause both she and Justin to be awkward. She could not ept that the
boy she saved before murdered Hans and her grandmother. Justin probably would not ept that she,
whom he had taken extreme revenge on, was the Katie for which he avenged. So, the past could never
be mentioned.
“What are you doing?” A cold voice suddenly came from behind her. The man’s rapid footsteps had
already
arrived before Rachel could react. Thus, she hurriedly threw all the remaining sheets into the fire. The
fire quickly rose high, but Justin quickly grabbed two sheets from the inferno. Although she wanted to
snatch it from him, it was toote.
He suspiciously looked at her before he read the scraps of papers in his hands. Then, his expression
changed abruptly. “You want to leave the country?”
Rachel was stunned; she looked at the scraps in his hand in astonishment.
Surprisingly, it was the information that Julian had given for her visa to leave the country, but she had
not paid attention to it and instead burned it together with those that Janice had given her. Therefore,
she hurriedly shook her head.
As he grabbed her wrist, Justin questioned amidst her cries, “Are you afraid that I would find out, which
is why you are burning all these? I thought you have been obedient and quiet these days, but you’ve
been doing this behind my back!”
No!
Rachel looked at the wall and realized that the fire had quickly burned all her identification, causing all
the evidence to turn into soot. As the wind blew and scattered the fragments everywhere, she knew
that she had no way to prove herself.
“No? Then, why did you burn it?” Justin suddenly raised his voice and the anger in his eyes was
palpable. “Have you gone through all the process? When do you n to leave?”
She shook her head desperately, but Justin shouted furiously, “Say it, when do you n to leave?”
I swear it’s not that!
Even though Julian said he wanted to take her abroad, she didn’t even think about really leaving with
him. Why couldn’t Justin trust her for once?
Justin ignored Rachel’s struggle as he forcibly dragged her into the bedroom. “Say, who did all this for
you? Where do you n to run to?”
Rachel was pinned against the wall and her eyes were red. Other than shaking her head and denying
it, there was nothing else she could say. At this moment, the scar on Justin’s face became
iparably hideous while her vision also gradually blurred. The man in front of her gradually
ovepped with the friend she made as a child before the few memories of her childhood became
unmistakably clear in her mind. How was she going to tell him that they had already met long ago? Did
she want to say it in such an awkward situation right now? No, she did not want to.
Tears instantly swam down her cheeks. However, he thought she was upset because he had
discovered her intention to leave the country, so he was consumed with rage. “Do you really wish to run
off?”
Then, he identally tore open her cor, revealing arge area of skin on her shoulder. Her face
turned pale as she struggled to push him away. Let go of me!

As he watched her frightened gaze, Justin clearly felt her resistance too. His expression fell once again
and he asked, “Who are you trying to keep your body for?”
Rachel was taken aback, but before she could react, she felt a sharp pain at the back of her head.
Then, her whole body was ruthlessly pushed down on the bed. The moment that Justin tore away her
clothes, she roughly signaled, Ahhh…
The sense of humiliation rushed through her blood. She didn’t want this! No!
Twenty years ago, the boy had pulled her through the fire and told her not to fall asleep as they would
definitely get out alive. Yet, how did he be what he was now? That was one of the few warm
memories of her childhood, even as warm as Hans. Even if the memory was dusty and only
remembered for a moment,
she still felt that because Justin was there, that deserted forest area had be illuminated by the
sun. How could he be like this?
“Rachel, I’m telling you that now that you have be my woman, you will not be able to run away in
this life!”
The fabric was ripped open in the air with a loud sound before a cool breeze drifted in through the
window. Rachel shivered for a moment, and in the next second, she was held down by his weight
without any ability to resist except for a hoarse cry. Ahhh!
In that instant, disappointment washed over her. The flow of her tears could not be stopped and she
desperately wanted to open her mouth to tell him everything -even if it was embarrassing for the both of
them in order to stop all the humiliation at this moment, but it was all toote.
