My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 115

“Is this why you quit your former job and went to work at the Burton Group?” Janice looked at Rachel. “Did Justin ask you to look into it?”

Rachel averted her eyes in the face of Janice’s questioning. I have something else to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.

“Hey!” Since she was unable to stop Rachel, Janice could only watch as her car drove off into the distance.

When Rachel reached Nancy’s place, she pressed the doorbell several times, but nobody answered the door. Just then, the door of the opposite house suddenly opened, and a middle-aged woman poked her head out. “Are you Madam Tiller’s granddaughter?” She looked Rachel up and down with a look of puzzlement. “Madam Tiller has been sent to the hospital. Don’t you know that?”

Immediately, Rachel’s expression changed upon hearing the woman’s words.

When Rachel arrived at Tran-Q’s emergency department in a hurry, she nearly bumped into a nurse holding some medicine. She gesticulated at the medical staff at the nurses’ station for a long time, but no one understood what she meant.

Just then, a familiar male voice sounded from behind. “Rachel?”

Hi, Julian. Rachel turned around to see Julian. After she explained the situation to him, Julian asked the staff at the nurses’ station. Upon learning that Nancy was receiving emergency treatment, he hurriedly took Rachel there.

“Hi, Madam Tiller.”

“Hey.” Nancy, who was lying on the sickbed, was startled for a moment when she saw Julian and Rachel. “Why are you here, Rachel?”

Rachel’s eyes were red with worry. How are you, Grandma?

“Oh, I’m fine. I just took a tumble and grazed my skin; it will heal once I go home and apply some cream to it. But Victor was worried, and he insisted on sending me to the hospital.”

Rachel followed Nancy’s gaze and saw the young man standing nearby. It’s you?

The young man’s blond hair was particularly obtrusive in the white-painted emergency department. Isn’t he the young man who had a fit of epilepsy in the neighborhood that day? Rachel thought to herself.
