My Mute Bride

“Who allowed you to come?”

Victor had just taken his first step toward the man when two bodyguards grabbed Victor to drag him aside. As for his curses, the rain had drowned it.

The black figure walked in from the rain and he advanced toward Rachel at a steady pace.

She staggered backward.

An icy cold face was revealed beneath the black umbrella, his eyes colder than winter rain.

Justin hadn’t even said anything when the police accompanying him walked past and spoke, “Officer Hawkins, we received a notice from the higher ups with regards to the case you’re currently handling. The inspectorate wishes to carry out an investigation with you. Please come with us.”

Janice frowned and stole a glance at Justin standing behind them.

Rachel quickly stepped in front of her.

What do you want?

“It’s okay, Rachel,” Janice comforted Rachel and turned to the police who came to take her away. “I’ll go with you.”

Victor shouted from a distance away, “What are you doing? Is there no regard for the law these days? Is everyone in Riverdale under the Burton Family?”

Under the black umbrella, Justin raised his hand to give a slight wave.

Victor gave a painful yelp and as he fell flat on his face into the grass, his cursing stopped.

Rachel panicked. Victor! What do you want? Let him go!

Justin held the umbrella with one hand to reveal a dark expression. “You seem disappointed to see me here.”

Her shoulders trembled. Should I be happy? Elated that the man who caused Grandma’s death has turned up at her funeral in one piece? What is wrong with this world? He has clearly smuggled drugs and committed many crimes, but it’s like he’s above the law to the point where he can shamelessly show up in front of his victims to continue doing all these horrible things.

He added, “So, this is why you exercised so much effort and even worked with Janice to throw me behind bars?”

You deserved it!
