My Mute Bride

“Are you trying to start a fight with me? Don’t think that you’re superior just because you got a spot in the family. If not for Justin, how long do you think you’ll be able to stay on the throne? Either way, I’m still impressed.” Amber suddenly lowered her body. “Hans already got his leg broken, yet you’re still attending the banquet with the assailant himself like nothing happened.”

Instantly, Rachel’s pupils contracted.

How did you know about it?

Even Julian had no clue that it was Justin who broke Hans’ leg, but Amber knew everything about it!

It was you!

Rachel immediately straightened her back.

The whole episode of Hans being beaten up and sent to the hospital-it was all part of Amber’s plan!

It must have been her!

To avoid the shares in her hand from getting transferred away, Amber came up with a plan to take Hans out to delay the transfer. Hence, she was always observing the entire incident, and that was also how she knew that Justin broke his leg afterward.

How could I have not seen this coming?!

As she stared straight at Amber, Rachel struggled to stand up by herself.

In response, her younger sister forcibly pressed her shoulder, shoving her back on the couch as she muttered, “Do you really think that Justin’s not aware of this? Do you know what he’s even more aware of? The fact that I’m the real heir to the Hudsons, and you’re but a worthless accident!”

Like a blade that pierced through her chest to the heart, those devastating words hit Rachel’s deepest wounds,

At once, Rachel’s eyes reddened with tiny blood vessels.

Curse you, Amber!

“Hmph!” Amber replied scornfully. “If curses actually work, nobody would be able to live in this world. Since you’re not doing anything about Gloria, I’ll do it myself, so you just wait and see!”

As she watched her sister’s leaving figure, Rachel couldn’t stop trembling as drops of tears flowed down her cheeks.

It’s because of me… It’s all because of me!

I shouldn’t have dragged Hans along in the first place!
