My Mute Bride Chapter 294
Chapter 294 Dishonest
Jason’s expression greatly eased. “Is that so? Forget about it, then.” Rachel nodded before she took
her bag and left the scene. After she left, he walked to the window and drew the curtain. He watched as
she exited the old building and headed toward the car park before he closed the curtain.
“Master Jason, can this woman be trusted?” “Nobody is really trustworthy. We can work together as
long as there are benefits.”
Jason nced at the list. “The Hudson Pharmaceuticals is facing a dire situation, so they must be
having arge backlog of their inventory. If she intends to revive the Hudson Pharmaceuticals, she
needs a huge working capital to fill that bottomless pit. As for her rtionship with Janice, we will have
someone keep an eye on that.”
Meanwhile, Rachel drove her car onto the main road that headed toward the city before pressing on
her right ear stud, which was an exquisitely designedmunication device.
“Hello?” Janice’s voice was heard from the other end. “It seems like Jason is still wary of you.”
“He will take the risk when there’s benefit involved.”
“He is rather concerned about our rtionship, so this is something I’m afraid that we have to mull
over.”
“I already have an idea.” Rachel held the steering wheel with a calm gaze. “Bucky is going to be
released from prison soon, isn’t it?”
On the other end of the call, Janice’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. “What are you going to
do?”
“I have to question him about my grandma’s matter.”
“Don’t do anything rash.”
“I know what I’m doing.”
Looking at the traffic light in front, she touched her ear. “I’m almost home. I’m hanging up.”
She ended the call, after which the car returned to silence.
As soon as she arrived home, Charlotte pounced onto her. “Mommy, Aunt Gloria said that she will bring
us to the water theme park tomorrow!”
Rachel caressed her head. “Aunt Gloria told you that?”
“Yes, she is not working tomorrow, so she said that she will bring Samuel and me there! Mommy, you
shoulde with us too!”
“Sure.” Rachel carried her up and took her into the room. “Aunt Gloria won’t be able to look after the
two of you by herself.” As Justin was nowhere to be seen, she asked, “Where’s your daddy?”
Charlotte shook her head. “He hasn’t returned.”
Rachel nodded.
She thought that it was for the best if they didn’t meet each other. As ofte, she and Justin were
arguing with each other, which led to a rather awkward and ufortable interaction.
The next day at noon, she brought the two children to the Water World.
As it was currently near the end of summer, the sun was not as scorchy as before; the weather felt
cozy, in fact.
They encountered a problem when they were about to enter the changing room.
“Boys below six can only enter with thepany of a male adult.” The strict employee at the door
stopped Samuel from entering the changing room.
Rachel exined, “My kid can change his clothes by himself, so you only need to give him an entry
pass.”
“No, I can’t bear the responsibility if there’s any kidnapping involved.”
His exnation rendered her speechless.
When they were in a stalemate, a male voice came from behind. “I’ll take him in.”
Rachel was stunned at first. Then, she looked back and saw a familiar figure. “Why are you here?”
Justin was dressed in white casual top and shorts. Under the sunlight, his intimidating presence
seemed to have be much gentler. “Is this the wrong time for me to show up?” He raised an
eyebrow as he carried Samuel up and entered the changing room.
Rachel cast a nce at Charlotte beside her, who scratched her head and giggled in response. “I also
thought that it would be tough for you to look after the two of us. Having a man with us will ease your
burden!”
Rachel flicked her nose and helplessly uttered, “You little mischief!”
After they changed their attire, they found Gloria by the beach.
Before they managed to say anything, a strong wave pounded on the shore and sshed water in all
directions. At that moment, a white figure emerged from the water and caused those around them to
scream.
“Hernandez?” Rachel, who had water sshed all over her, broke into a smile when she recognized
the person who emerged from the water. “Why are you here?”
“Surprise!” With a broad grin that revealed his teeth, Hernandez sprang out of the water and gave
Rachel a bear hug.
“Let go of my mommy!” Charlotte pounced out from behind and aimed her water gun at Hernandez.
“Curly Weirdo! Let’s defeat the Curly Weirdo!”
Hernandez had no choice but to release Rachel and ran in rounds with Charlotte chasing after him
from behind.
“What are you two doing? Stop messing around. You are giving me a headache.” Rachel was caught
up in the center of the ‘fight’. The water from the water gun thatnded on her by mistake as well as the
two figures, onerge and the other small, running in circles around her made her dizzy, although it had
amused her at the same time.
Justin, who was standing at one side, wore a dark expression. He stopped Hernandez and questioned,
“How did you know that we are here?”
Hernandez avoided Charlotte’s water shots with a smug look on his face. “Why wouldn’t I know?”
Justin attempted to seek for Samuel, but the kid had long jumped into the water and disappeared from
their sights. Without giving it any thought, he knew that it was Samuel who betrayed him again.
“I didn’te alone, though,” Hernandez borated before he whistled.

Justin looked behind the man. Jolly, who looked as though she was on a vacation to Hawaii with a wide
brimmed hat and red polkadot swimwear, elegantly walked in their direction. Julian and Victor were
beside her with beaming faces.
Great, everyone’s here.
Victor was the happiest one as he jogged toward them while waving at Rachel. “Rachel!”
Rachel was surprised. “Why are you guys here?”
Jolly adjusted her hat and replied with a smirk, “We are free. What’s wrong? You don’t want to see us?”
As she spoke, she darted a look at Gloria. “Someone here wasn’t being honest. That’s an underhanded
action that you have pulled off. I thought that I met a true friend, but it turns out that I had nearly invited
a wolf into the house.”
A guilty Gloria simpered awkwardly.
She had to admit that today’s outing was actually a n to set Rachel and Justin up, but never
expected that there was a traitor among them who had invited everyone here.
Victor coldly snorted, “It’s never easy to change one’s true nature. Our so-called Piano Prodigy has
always been like this.”
Upon hearing that, Gloria, who had been suppressing her temper, was pissed. “Who are you exactly?”
He rolled his eyes at her and mocked, “Oh, my, our Piano Prodigy doesn’t recognize an insignificant
peasant like me now.”
With her brows tightly knitted, she appraised him from head to toe but still couldn’t recognize him.
Rachel couldn’t bear to watch on and chimed in, “Ria, he’s Victor.”
“Victor?” Gloria was so stunned by the answer that she stared at Victor for a while. “Silly kid, did you
have stic surgery?”
“What stic surgery?”
“Where’s your blond hair?” she asked, reaching out with her hand to tug his hair. “Is this a wig?”
“Hey, we can talk, but don’t touch me!” Victor shrank backward to avoid her hand.
