My Mute Bride

Back in the Burton Residence, Sue specially prepared a scrumptious meal and waited with Amber for Justin to be back for dinner.

“Amber, we’re a family from now on. Although you guys are just engaged, the marriage date has already been decided. So, you’ll marry into our family very soon.”

“Madam Parham, this matter is not finalized yet.” Amber blushed.

Just then, she heard the sound of the door opening from the outside and quickly laid down her cutleries. “Justin.”

Sue walked up too. “Justin, see how virtuous Amber is. It’s only the second day of your engagement and she came over to arrange a meal which consists of all your favorite dishes.”

Justin wore a cold and nonchalant expression. “I’ve eaten already. You guys go ahead.”

At once, the smile on Amber’s face froze.

Sue comforted her, “It’s okay. Maybe Justin had dinner with his clients earlier. Don’t bother about him, Amber. Let’s eat on our own.”

Sue invited Amber to the dining table, but the latter had completely lost her appetite because she was well aware of where Justin came back from.

Julian placed his keys on the table. “No one will be staying here for a while. So, you can stay here first and let me know if you need anything.”

Rachel nodded. Thank you.

Initially, Julian rented this place for Nancy to live in. At that time, Nancy turned it down lest Justin would be unhappy about it. Who knew after the efforts of trying to find the place a new owner, Julian would be staying in it himself.

“Do you still have no intention of telling Madam Tiller about this matter? If you tell her now, you can directly move in to stay with her.”

Rachel shook her head. Grandma is already old. Too many things have happened recently, and I don’t want her to be worried about me.

Julian nodded reflectively.

“Settle down here and stop worrying too much then. This place is close to both the hospital and Madam

Tiller’s residence.”

Sure. Thank you, Julian.

“The Burton Family has done you wrong. I’m also doing this so that I’ll feel less guilty.”
