My Mute Bride Chapter 310
Chapter 310 Shield You Guys From Harm
Gloria drove Jolly’s car and sent them directly back home.
“Mommy, who was that man from before?”
Now that they were inside the car, Charlotte asked Rachel.
Then, Rachel responded, “I don’t know him.”
However, Samuel spoke up, “Before we went on our school break, I ran into that man by the school
entrance where he gave me a box of choctes too!”
“What choctes did he give you?” Jolly suddenly turned around to look at him from the front
passenger seat with an ugly expression.
“It’s the liqueur-filled choctes that we both enjoy, but you won’t allow me to have too much of it
because it’ll make me drunk.”
“Did you eat them? When was that?” She immediately panicked. “Gloria, head to the hospital right
now.”
Gloria was significantly shocked.
Meanwhile, Rachel hurriedly borated, “Gloria, just keep driving. Jolly, calm down. Samuel’s school
holidays had started quite a while ago. If the choctes were indeed dubious, surely we would have
noticed the issue way before this!”
Jolly’s expression remained ugly. “Ryan Sutton isn’t a nice guy. In the past—”
At that point, she swallowed the words that she wanted to say due to the kids’ presence.
However, Samuel was quite confused. “Is that man a bad guy? He doesn’t look like one, though.”
In response, Rachel ruffled his hair. “It’s usually impossible to identify bad guys by their looks. Next
time, if you meet this man again, stay away from him to keep me and Godmother at ease, alright?”
Although he couldn’t quite understand the reason, he nheless nodded.
Meanwhile, Jolly was preupied with her thoughts for the entire journey.
Her face was reflected as she kept her eyes on Samuel with a zed expression from the rearview
mirror.
“We’ve arrived.”
It was at that moment wheir car arrived at Jolly’s penthouse apartment located in the town center.
Then, Gloria prompted, “Do you want us to apany you upstairs?”
Suddenly, Jolly responded, “I don’t want to go home anymore.”
“Huh?”
A stunned Gloria rified, “Then, where are you going to stay?”
Meanwhile, Rachel spoke up, “Are you concerned…”
Concerned about Samuel? Jolly nodded.
“How about this? Why don’t you bring Samuel along with you and stay over at your parents’ ce for
the time being?”
“I’m worried that he wille over to seek us out directly.”
At that point, Rachel became lost in her thoughts. After all, Ryan and Jolly were originally engaged to
be married, so it was usible that he might head over to seek them out.
After deliberating about the situation for quite some time, she finally spoke up, “Chris, how about this:
I’ll move over to your ce temporarily to stay for the next few days.”
“My ce? Whereabouts are you talking about?”
“Justin’s house.” Jolly had suddenly found a solution wherein her eyes immediately brightened. “That
b*stard, Ryan Sutton, can disregard me, but I’m sure he would be mindful of Justin, right?”
“It’s all sorted, then. Gloria, start the ignition.”
Upon saying that, Jolly fastened her seat belt once again as she finished speaking while the gloomy
look she had earlier swiftly dissipated.
Gloria was stunned. “Are you being serious? How can you possibly stay over at Justin’s ce?”
“What’s wrong? Are there no spare rooms avable for me?”
“This has nothing to do with the number of rooms!” Gloria stared at her for some time before blurting
out, “Don’t tell me that you’re interested in Justin?!”
At that point, Jolly grimaced. “Are you out of your mind or am I the one going crazy here?”
“Fine, I want to move in too.”
“Huh?”
“What’s there to be confused about? There are plenty of rooms for us.” After saying that, Gloria
fastened her seat belt and started the ignition.
Neither one of them had asked Rachel for her opinion throughout their exchange and didn’t call or text
Justin to seek his permission either. They happily decided to move into his house on the spot.
Half an hourter, in the living room of Burton Residence, a dumbfounded Justin stared at the two
women walking in with their luggage for what seemed like eternity. “Are you two moving in?”
“Don’t mind me. I’ll stay in the room downstairs by the back garden,” Gloria spoke as she dragged her
luggage to head inside.
Meanwhile, Jolly scanned her surroundings. “Then, I’ll stay in the room next to her. You don’t have to
serve me.”
Serve her? Who’s here to serve her? Justim was angered beyond words.
“So, this is what you went out to do?”
Meanwhile, Rachel expressed her resignation by throwing both of her hands into the air. “It’s just
temporary.”
Jolly was definitely not going to stay for long.
Meanwhile, he took a few minutes to process this fact. “Can I ask for the reason?”
At that point, Rachel hesitated for a moment before replying, “Yes, I would have to start by exining
Samuel’s identity. Five years ago, I had just left Riverdale after giving birth to Charlotte and copsed
right after disembarking from the ne. Coincidentally, Jolly, who had just gotten off the same flight,
also lost consciousness. The only difference was that I fainted from postpartum weakness whereas she
fainted from exhaustion sustained during pregnancy.”
Back then, Jolly, who was five months into her pregnancy, was emaciated to the point where her baby
bump wasn’t even significant. She had gone to Montenegro for two reasons: one was to give birth while
the other was for her studies.
“Jolly waspletely different from how she is right now. If you had met her back then, you would’ve
realized how miserable she was when she left Riverdale then.”
She wasn’t born with her happy-go-lucky attitude, but rather, if she didn’t maintain this attitude, it would
have been arduous for her to get through life.
“We stayed in the same hospital so over time, we became familiar with each other. After that, I helped
her to conceal her birth and she assisted me by organizing the process with my migration to
Montenegro.”
Initially, Rachel had thought that Jolly was some rich man’s mistress and went abroad to give birth
without the person’s wife knowing. Never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined that Jolly was
the daughter of the president of Carter Enterprise.

“I only realized afterward that her fiance had married someone else. Since she couldn’t bear to abort
the child, she went abroad to give birth. However, her depression worsened as her due date
approached.”
Depression? Justin frowned but didn’t question Rachel. He remained silent and allowed her to continue
speaking as he listened.
Rachel then added, “Coincidentally, I saw it when she slit her wrists and after her life was saved, the
doctors told me that it was her seventh episode that month. Based on her mental status back then, they
preferred her to abort the child, but she was too far along in her pregnancy. There was no choice but to
continue with the pregnancy.”
Justin couldn’t quite imagine someone as haughty and cocky as Jolly to have such a dark past. “What
happened after that?”
“After that, she told me that she had been abandoned by Samuel’s biological father and he had married
another woman…”
“The princess of Carter Enterprise was jilted?”
“That sounds unbelievable, right?” She paused as she tried toe up with the words to exin the
rest. “This is quite a long story and it’splicated to exin too. Anyway, it’s just a story of how
humanity cannot withstand trials. If only Jolly hadn’t concealed her identity from the beginning, then she
might already be married to Ryan Sutton now and be living a great life.”
“Ryan Sutton?” His eyes faintly narrowed.
After that, Rachel nodded her head. “I was just about to tell you about it. I think I might have offended
him today. I heard that he’s someone who holds a grudge, so I might get into trouble in the future and
would need your help.”
Justin took some time toprehend her words and finally understood what she meant. “So, the
reason for you patiently speaking to me for so long is because you wanted me to protect you guys from
harm?”
At that, she remained nonchnt. “I mean, you’ve already acknowledged Samuel’s identity in public.
You can’t possibly watch on as someone snatches him from us and him subsequently addressing
someone else as Daddy, right?”
That would make him aughing stock by then. He suddenly felt that he had gone overboard beyond
the point of no return.
