My Mute Bride Chapter 299
Chapter 299 ying Both Ends
After the morning meeting, Rachel returned to her office and noticed that her phone on the desk
suddenly lit up as a message appeared. Her eyes darkened slightly when she nced at it.
“President Hudson, where are you going?” “I have something to do.” “When will you being back?”
“I don’t know. Call me if anything happens.”
After that, she went into the elevator. Looking at how hurried she was, the secretary quickly went back
to her office to make a call. “Chairman Holt, President Hudson just went out.”
Meanwhile, Rachel drove out from the parking garage and drove straight to the suburbs. This wasn’t
the first time that she arrived at Riverdale Penitentiary.
Thest time she came was because Jefferey had suddenly died, so as her legal daughter, she was
summoned by the prison guards to collect his body.
She came this time because Bucky was being released.
2 hourster, Rachel drove to the entrance of Riverdale Penitentiary and took a look at her wristwatch.
It’s almost time.
Then, a small door that only a person could walk through was opened on the side of the bulletproof
door. The prison guard was the first toe out before he was followed by a dark-skinned man with a
shaved head. The man’s dark expression seemed to exude a cold aura under the sun.
“You better behave now.” The prison guard’s voice echoed in the air.
As if by reflex, the man nodded his head and agreed.
Bang!
When the prison door behind him was closed, he lifted his head once more to look at the sunlight
outside.
Five years. He had stayed in this ce for five whole years.
Other than a big empty road and some weeds scattered around, there was nothing in front of the
prison’s entrance. He didn’t hope for anyone toe and pick him up as he carried a bag and took out
half a pack of cigarettes and a lighter that he had before his imprisonment.
It didn’t matter whether the cigarettes were expired or not, but after sticking a cigarette in his mouth for
a while, he realized that the lighter was useless.
As he felt a bit frustrated, he finally noticed the woman walking toward him.
“Are you Bucky? I came to pick you up.”
In fairness, she wasn’t asking him because the certainty in her eyes told him that she came here
looking for him.
After finally being released from prison five yearster, he could only dream of having a beautiful
woman pick him up on the first day, so he went into her car without any hesitation. My life is cheap
anyway. What else can I do?

As for Rachel, she wasn’t surprised that this man agreed to follow her without saying a word. Once a
violent ouw like him has his eyes on a beautiful woman and luxurious cars, there is nothing to be
afraid of.
“Do you have a lighter?”
“I don’t smoke, but you can have something to eat.”
Rachel pressed the button on the right hand side, and the lid in between the driver’s seat and the
passenger side slowly opened, revealing some water and snacks.
Not holding back, Bucky unwrapped a bag of bread and a bottle of water.
“Don’t you want to know who I am?” she asked.
“Why do I need to know who you are? I have never known that many rich people in my life, but the only
one who values me is him.”
Him? I knew it. Rachel secretly smiled. Does he think that Jason sent me here?
On the surface, she remained unmoved. “I came to ask you something. To prevent any
misunderstandings, let me introduce myself first. I’m Rachel Hudson.” Suddenly, he paused while
eating and looked at her in shock. “The person that you kidnapped 5 years ago was my grandma,” she
uttered calmly.
The atmosphere in the car became tense all of a sudden.
As Bucky’s hands trembled, he didn’t know how to react to the situation, so he instinctively grabbed the
door handle.
Rachel nced at him from the corner of her eye. “The car is now traveling at 55 miles per hour. If you
jump out of the car, chances are you won’t live.”
“What do you want? You’re right. I kidnapped your grandma, but I’ve already served 5 years of my
sentence.”
“I know. I didn’te to you for revenge.”
Seeing how calm Rachel looked, Bucky slowly regained hisposure and leaned back in his seat.
“Then, why are you looking for me? Do you want to scold me? Beating me up won’t bring her back.
Also, I didn’t know that she was in such bad health at that time.”
She tightened her fingers around the steering wheel. “I want to ask who ordered you to kidnap my
grandma back then.”
“No one ordered me. I was desperate for money at that time.”
“Are you sure? I can understand that an ordinary person like you would want to ckmail the rich, but
why did you tell Justin to surrender the development rights of that piece ofnd? What good does it do
to you?” As he listened to her, Bucky furrowed his brow. “Who ordered you to do it?”
“I want to get out of the car.”
He is obviously refusing to spill anything.
However, Rachel wasn’t in a hurry as she slowly uttered, “When you took that bread earlier, you might
not have noticed that there is a photo next to it. Why don’t you take a look at it?”
A startled Bucky turned his head and saw a photo wedged between two bottles of water.
His face suddenly froze and turned pale when he took out the photo. “What did you do to Lily?”
“Nothing. I only funded her school so that the poor students could head abroad for a month for an
exchange programme. During this period, all her traveling expenses, food and amodation would
be covered. However, what do you think about her being abroad in a ce where she is unfamiliar with
—”
“What are you going to do to her?” He suddenly raised his voice and roared, “If you have any problems,
you can take it out on me, but if you dare toy a finger on my little sister, I’ll kill you!”
Then, the screeches of the brakes were heard as Bucky almost mmed his head on the windshield.
Rachel stopped the car and gave him a warning gaze. “I don’t like to threaten people, so I’ll give you a
day to consider it. You cane and meet me at this address tomorrow morning.”
As he looked at the business card, his tanned face only grew darker. He immediately exited the car
upon receipt of the card.
Seeing the car in front speeding away, he smashed everything in his hands before making a call right
after. A whileter, someone answered the call and an impatient voice was heard on the other end.
“Hello?”
“Mr. Walsh, it’s me.”
“Oh, are you Bucky? Are you already released?”
“Mr. Walsh, I’m looking for Master Jason. Where is he?”
“You’re looking for Master Jason? I thought you just came out.” The other party’s voice immediately
turned cold. “What’s the problem? Are you not getting enough money, which is why you want to ask for
more? Let me tell you something. There’s nothing to be gained by being greedy.”
“My little sister has been kidnapped! I really don’t have any other choice. If Master Jason chooses not
to help me, I have no other choice but to tell the truth.”
The other end went silent for a moment. “Are you sure? Do you know who did it?”
“She says her name is Rachel Hudson.”
The phone on the other end was on speaker-mode. The game room was filled with smoke and seated
on the leather couch in the corner was Jason, who stuck a cigar in his mouth while his face darkened a
little.
“Master Jason, what should we do?”
“Kidnapped?” He chuckled coldly. “This is Riverdale. Unless she wants to be imprisoned, would she
dare to do it?”
“Bucky’s sister is indeed abroad right now, though.”
“Then, we’ll just report this to the investigation bureau. Isn’t that officer in the investigation bureau on
good terms with her? Let’s see if she decides to be righteous or help a criminal.”
No matter what the oue was, if he yed both ends correctly, eliminating any one of them would
be beneficial to his business.
