My Mute Bride Chapter 19

Every inch of her body was exposed to Justin’s eyes, and nothing was hidden. Right now, she felt she was like a plaything with no respect.

“I’ll ask you one more time-is the news true?” Beyond the curtain of water, Justin spoke to her in a low voice, each word he said pounding at Rachel’s heart icily.
