My Mute Bride Chapter 365
Chapter 365 Ill-Mannered Brat
It was already midnight when Rachel arrived at Sutton Manor in West Magnolia. The gate was locked,
and Jolly seemed to have arrived before her for a while, but she was blocked at the gate by the security
guard.
“Sorry, Old Madam Sutton is already resting and she will not be seeing any guests,” the guard said
without emotion on his face.
Jolly replied to him, “I’m not a guest, and I’m not here to see the olddy. I’m here to see my son.”
“I’m sorry, but we don’t have the person you are looking for here.” The guard was firm and
unapproachable.
“Excuse me?” Jolly was so angry that she was about to burst off. “My friends saw the car drive into
your manor with their own eyes. You are lying to me! Unfortunately, you leave me with no choice but to
call the police!” If it weren’t for the reputation of the Carter Family and to not aggravate the situation,
Jolly would have called the police a long time ago.
At that moment, a pair of headlights lit up from behind them, and a ck car stopped at the gate. Ryan
got out of his car swiftly and ran straight to Jolly.
“Jolly…” Before he could finish his sentence, Jolly took a stride forward and… p!
She pped him hard on the cheek. The pping sound echoed in the quiet night. He didn’t even
dodge a bit, allowing the p tond firmly on his cheek. This strike is even harder than thest time,
he thought.
To avoid agitating Jolly further, he turned his head to the guard andmanded, “Open the gate!”
The guard dared not refuse and obeyed the order promptly. After all, this woman dared to p their
young master! As soon as the gate opened, Jolly sprinted through with Rachel following behind her
closely.
“This estate is enormous. Do you know where Samuel is?” Rachel asked as she walked. “Why don’t we
ask Ryan?” she added.
“There is no need to ask. I know this ce inside out, and I will not forget it even if I die.” Jolly seemed
very tense right now.
Obviously, she had been here before, and the memories of this ce were engraved in her mind. Not a
pleasant one, I guess, Rachel assumed.
Throughout Jolly’s life, humiliation was not something that she experienced regrly. In fact, she had
only been humiliated twice. Ryan once mistook her for a poor girl and asked her tomit herself as
his lover, and the second one took ce here.
Rachel followed Jolly through the pavilions, and at the first nce, she could tell that this ancient
manor was worth a lot of money. When they reached a two-story courtyard, Jolly stopped in her tracks.
Staring at the building in front of her, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. The rage was pulsing
through her veins.
“No! Get it off me!” All of a sudden, they heard the wailing of a childing through from the courtyard.
Rachel’s facial expression shifted from worried to angry. Before she could react, Jolly was already
ahead of her, running into the building and kicking the door open.
“Samuel!” Jolly yelled.
Jolly and Rachel werepletely taken aback by the scene as soon as they rushed into the hall. A
maid restricted Samuel’s movement, and a doctor in a white coat held his arm. With a syringe in his
hand, the doctor sought to draw blood from Samuel’s arm.
“What the hell are you doing?” Jolly chided. Under the shocked gaze of the crowd, she dashed forward
and grabbed Samuel away from them. His little face was pale and full of terror. He leaned into her arms
and shivered uncontrobly.
“Samuel, are you okay?” she asked with a panicked tone.
Samuel winced in pain as he murmured, “They… They want to draw my blood.”
Jolly was always strong and optimistic, but her tears streamed down her cheeks when she heard him.
Her hands trembled as she held his.
Samuel felt guilty when he saw her tears, and he stretched out his little hand to wipe them.
“Godmother, it’s okay. I don’t feel the pain.”
My little boy is trembling with terror. How can it not hurt? Jolly could feel that her heart was broken into
many pieces.
Having seen the plight that Samuel had been through, Rachel felt anguished. She shifted her focus and
observed the surroundings, and she said, “It is a criminal offense to abduct a child and intentionally
harm the child. With the witness and physical evidence avable, I am going to sue you!”
Suddenly, a coughing sound sounded from the side. “Sue us? I suggest you think before you leap, Miss
Hudson.” The voice had a condescending tone by its nature.
Just then, an old woman in her fifties, supported by a maid, slowly walked out of the inner room and sat
down on the couch. The old woman had downturned eyes and a cunning look on her. Those sarcastic
and demeaning statements wereing from her.
Here she is, Old Madam Sutton!
“We just want to verify whether this child is the seed of our Sutton Family, lest some shameless people
use a little wild seed to deceive our property!” she said haughtily.
Just when Rachel stepped forward and wanted to say something back, she was stopped by Jolly as
she ced her palm on Rachel’s chest.
Then, she handed Samuel over to Rachel and said, “Wait for me.” She seemed a lot calmer and no
longer panicked after ensuring that Samuel was safe. As a response, Rachel nodded briefly to Jolly.
Jolly suppressed her anger and gave the olddy a frosty stare. After that, she took a step toward the
olddy and remarked, “Samuel has nothing to do with the Sutton Family!”
“Even if the Carter Family is in financial ruin in the future, I will not touch a cent of your family’s money.
You still act like the snob you were back then, old witch!” she added angrily.
“What did you say?” Old Madam Sutton was irritated by Jolly’s rudements. She pointed at Jolly
and cursed, “You ill-mannered brat! Is this what your father taught you?”
“Ill-mannered? Do you even regard this as ill-mannered? You haven’t seen the worst of me yet!” Jolly
retaliated.
After saying that, Jolly spun around and snatched the tube that contained Samuel’s blood from the
doctor.
Just then, Ryan entered the hall. “What are you doing? Stop!” he shouted at her. Ignoring Ryan’s
warning, Jolly raised her hand and hurled the tube of blood at the olddy.
“Mom!” He dashed forward and shielded his mother with his back.
Crash! The tube of blood smashed into the wall behind them and broke into fragments. The blood
sshed onto the wall, forming a huge circle, flowing down the wall. The scene was disgusting and
creepy.
Looking at the blood on the wall, Ryan became extremely pale. “Mom, are you okay?” He calmed
himself down and tried to make sure his mother was safe. Old Madam Sutton was so frightened that
she couldn’t say anything but shiver. In disbelief, she stared at Jolly’s face with anger and a hint of fear.
After smashing the tube, Jolly gave the mother and son a callous stare. “Old witch, I am telling you for
the onest time, and you better mark my words. I’m not interested in your money, or anything to do
with your family. However, if any of you touches my son one more time, I want him dead!” she warned.
Then, Jolly turned to Rachel and said, “Chris, let’s go.”
“Jolly!” When Ryan tried to chase after her, he was stopped by his mother as she grabbed his arm. “Do
you see that? This is the true color of this woman and you want to marry her? She’s going to ruin the
Sutton Family!”
“Mom! You have crossed the line!” he yelled at her with anger and disappointment. Then, he stood up
and attempted to leave.
“Stop right there! If you dare to take one step out of this door, I will not have you as a son!”
A resentful look appeared on his face as he heard what the olddy said. “Take good care of my
mother,” he instructed the maid and left without turning back.
Ryan ran at full speed and finally caught up with the three of them as they were crossing a bridge that
headed toward the main gate of the manor.
“Jolly, just give me a minute,” he begged as he pulled her by the hand. “I can exin. I really didn’t
know my mother would do this. If I had known, I would have stopped her.”
“Get your hand off me!” Jolly shook away his hand. “If you hadn’t been pestering me, would the old
witch have done this?”
“Can you not call her old witch? That’s my mother!” heined.

“To me, calling her an old witch is iparable to what she has done to me,” she sneered.
“Jolly, I know my mother is a bit old-fashioned, but can you talk to me calmly without raising your voice?
Even though she is at fault for doing what she did, she had no bad intentions; she just wanted to verify
Samuel’s DNA.”
Ryan’s shameless attitude irritated Rachel. She couldn’t stop rolling her eyes at him because he was
still defending his mother’s action. If she was not busy covering Samuel’s ears on the side, she would
have kicked him into the pond under the bridge.
Jolly felt breathless as the anger brewed within her. “Oh yeah? Back then, she also tried to verify what
kind of person I was, and how did that turn out? In her eyes, I am a shameless woman who seduced
you. Do you need me to repeat the things that she had said to humiliate me?” she rebuked.
“Jolly, I’m so sorry,” he apologized sheepishly.
“You don’t have to apologize. After all, I am the one who doesn’t deserve you. So, please stay away
from me in the future.”
Ryan realized that whatever he said was only going to worsen the situation. So, he stopped arguing
and reached his arm out to her, attempting to calm her down.
“Don’t touch me!” As soon as he touched her, she snapped and pushed him away forcefully.
Ssh!
In shock, Ryan’s pupils contracted as he fell backward from the bridge and into the pond.
Rachel was thunderstruck. She never thought that her wishes woulde true.
