My Mute Bride Chapter 51

Chapter 51 Were There Enough Wedding Favors?

Rachel entered the study at night to serve Justin with some tea.

At the sound of the door being opened, he instructed her without looking up, “Put it down.”

Even though she did as he asked her to, she stood there without leaving.

Finally, he looked up at her. “Did you need something else?”

Rachel hesitated for a moment before she signed. Do you have a solution for the medication formula?

While keeping his gaze on her, Justin answered, “We previously missed our chance, so it’ll be difficult for us to go back to Hudson Vineyard. We might be able to head there on the pretext of discussing the wine business, though. Why? Do you have a solution?”

She shook her head.

For now, Rachel didn’t plan on telling him that she had seen the formula.

Since the dosages weren’t listed, she was worried that even if she informed Justin about it, he would think she was hiding something from him.

Justin asked in a careless manner, “I heard Jefferey took you to the vineyard last week. What were you doing there?”

It was right after he dropped the question that Rachel’s heart raced loudly.

How could she have forgotten that he knew her whereabouts like the back of his hand?

Upon seeing that she was unable to explain herself, his gaze darkened. “Did he ask you to do something else?”

As her expression tightened anxiously, she nodded. He gave me a packet of drugs.

“Drugs?” Justin frowned. “What kind of drugs?”
