My Mute Bride

The sky was already dark when the MPV drove into the summer villa.

“Young Master Justin, why are you here at this hour?”

“Where’s Grandpa?”

“Old Mr. Burton is already resting. How about I get someone to arrange for you to stay here tonight? Then if there’s anything, you can talk to him tomorrow night.”

Outside Arthur’s room door, Justin was stopped by the butler. The door was tightly shut, as if the old man didn’t intend to see him at all.

“Young Master Justin, Old Mr. Burton is really resting

Justin clenched his fists. “Where’s Rae?”

The servants on the side dared not speak.

“Are you all mute?” Justin looked around, but no one dared to answer his question, so his face turned gloomy in an instant. “I’m asking all of you a question!”

The atmosphere in the living room was deathly still, and everyone was staying silent out of fear.

“Oh, a rare visitor.”

A sarcastic voice sounded from the stairs, and Tina stood there with her hand on the handrail. “I thought I was hearing things, but you’re really back, Justin.”

Justin frowned, but he appeared calm.

“Justin, it’s unlike you to come here and make a fuss so late at night. Did something happen to the company?”

“Where’s Rae?”

“Rae? Oh, you mean my mute cousin-in-law. I seem to have heard that Grandpa called her over today, so you should ask him.”

The impatience in Justin’s eyes intensified. He didn’t want to continue talking nonsense with her. “Leon, is Grandpa really asleep?”

The butler replied helplessly, “Young Master Justin, If Old Mr. Burton says that he’s going to sleep, that means he doesn’t want to see anyone anymore. If you believe me, then just listen to me and don’t ask

any more questions. Tomorrow morning, Mrs. Burton will definitely return in perfect condition.”
