My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 37

It was only until Rachel left the room that Justin took the tea next to him and had a sip.

The Earl Grey tea had a thick fragrance and the light flavor of the milk balanced out the bitterness perfectly. The fragrance mixed with the aroma of the room and it had a calming effect. He was actually lost in his thoughts when he heard the door of the next room close.

After Rachel took care of her grandma in the hospital for a few days, the latter had a great recovery.

This afternoon, Rachel was getting some things in a convenience store nearby. As soon as she walked out of the store, she saw a figure in a suit bow slightly to her. “Miss Hudson, Old Master Burton wants to see you.”

The person was none other than Arthur’s personal butler. This time around, it seemed like Arthur wanted to meet her.

Ever since Justin took over the Burton Group, Arthur had already retired and he rarely appeared in Riverdale anymore. It was rumored that he would go to a mansion in the suburbs of Riverdale every summer to avoid the heat. Apart from that season, even the family members of the Burton Family would normally not be able to see him too.

After Rachel got into the car, she fidgeted with her fingers anxiously as she watched the scenery outside the window going backward.

It was most likely that the butler noticed her anxiety, so he consoled her, “Miss Hudson, you don’t have to worry. After all, you have already married Young Master Justin. It’s time to pay a visit to the elderly in the family.”

Upon hearing that, Rachel pursed her lips and nodded politely.

At this moment in the summer mansion in the suburbs, Sue appraised Tina Burton from head to toe as the former complimented sweetly, “It’s been a while since I last saw you and you’ve grown into a fine young woman.”

Tina was Justin’s cousin and she was the only daughter of his paternal uncle. She had been spoiled since young, which resulted in her short temper. However, she knew how to please Arthur.
