My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 76

After writing the last word, the chalk Rachel was using broke and rolled around on the ground.

“It has come to this point. What other tricks are you trying to play with me?” Tina’s expression was nasty. “Of course you’ll refuse to admit that you were the snitch. When would a murderer ever admit that they killed someone?”

Not bothering to argue with her, Rachel kneeled on the ground and wrote one word.

Amber

“Are you saying that Amber revealed the secret?” For a moment, Tina was stunned. Then, she seemed to think of something which caused her to scoff. “If you want to blame it on someone, you should at least blame it on the right person. Before Henry’s incident, Amber knew nothing about the matter between us. Do you think I’m stupid?”

Rachel looked silently at Tina, her calm gaze making the latter a little panicked.

Tina was indeed a little dumb, but she wasn’t an idiot.

That day, Amber had asked her to go to the wine cellar. There were waiters around, but she insisted that Rachel go to the already suspicious place. As for how Tina and Henry ended up at the wine cellar, no one knew, but Rachel was sure that it must have had something to do with Amber.

“That’s impossible.” All of a sudden, there was an extremely unpleasant look on Tina’s face.

She suddenly remembered that before Jefferey’s birthday banquet, Amber had invited her multiple times to make sure she would turn up, and she waited until she was around before telling the waiter the specific place to get the wine and to not go to the underground wine cellar.

Suddenly, the creaking sound of the door closing rang out. Tina came and left in a hurry as her figure instantly disappeared from the doorway.

Looking at the doors of the ancestral hall, which was once again closed, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief. She felt discomfort in her palms, so she opened up her hand, only to see that the chalk had broken into countless pieces, and her palm was full of powder.

The next day, Rachel was awoken by the sound of the door opening.

“Mrs. Burton, wake up.”

Rachel’s body was freezing as she opened her eyes in a daze, and she could barely prop herself up from the hard ground.

The butler, Leon, was waiting at the door. “Mrs. Burton, Old Mr. Burton said that you can come out now.”

Rachel nodded, and her knees were numb when she stood up. If it weren’t for the help of the servants on both her sides, she would have tumbled onto the ground.

When she noticed how skilled the servants were at supporting her, she wondered if the Burtons often sent people to the ancestral hall to kneel as punishment.

The servants helped Rachel into the guest room, which was actually a suite. There was a living room outside, clean clothes on the bed in the bedroom, and hot water running in the bathroom.

Rachel was stunned. Wasn’t I supposed to go see Old Mr. Burton?

“Old Mr. Burton said to let you shower and freshen up, then have breakfast before going to the living room to talk.”

Where’s Justin?
