My Mute Bride Chapter 34

Shaking her head, Rachel gave her grandma a blank look.

She couldn’t remember most of the things that had happened when she was young. All this while, she suspected she learned the ability to recollect memories a little later than other children since she couldn’t remember much. Besides that, she only remembered a little of the time before she arrived at Riverdale.

Seeing her reaction, Nancy reached out her frail, bony hand to brush several strands of Rachel’s fringe behind her ear, revealing her neat, beautiful face.

As if she was talking to herself, she murmured, “It seems that you don’t remember. If you did, you wouldn’t have followed Jefferey here.”

Hearing that, she was dumbfounded. Why? Didn’t Dad bring us over to Riverdale because he thought that our old place wasn’t safe?

At this moment, Rachel tugged on her grandma’s sleeve. Grandma, are you okay?

All of a sudden, Nancy snapped out of the trance before she replied, “Yeah.”

She then gently patted the back of Rachel’s hand as she said, “Rae, you must live a happy life. We just have to be honest and true to ourselves. That suffices. Your mom who’s looking over you from above will want you to be safe and sound.”

Upon hearing that, Rachel nodded obediently.

“Right, Rae, do you still keep the box that your mom left for you?”

Yes. She nodded once again.

“You must keep it well.”
