My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 169

Night fell.

Jolly came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and walked toward Rachel while drying her hair. “It’s so late already. Why are you still not sleeping? You’ve quit your job, but you’re still staring at the computer in the middle of the night.”

Rachel clicked on an email on the computer and said lightly, “This is an email sent to me by a friend of mine two weeks ago.”

“Is it the friend from the Investigation Bureau?”

“Yup.”

“Let me see.”

Jolly pulled a chair out and sat down next to Rachel.

“This is the case that you’ve been investigating?”

“Yes.”

“It says here that there is a video that can prove that it was your ex-husband who caused the death of your lawyer friend.”

Rachel’s pupils constricted slightly. “Yes.”

Back then, she was abused physically and mentally by Justin; she could hardly protect herself to the point that she had to leave Riverdale in a hurry, so she couldn’t find out who was behind Hans’ death.

After five years, Janice finally received news from a retired media reporter that Justin had bought a top-secret video from the media five years ago-one which was related to the death of Hans.

Jolly finished reading the email. “Is this why you decided to resign and return home all of a sudden?”

“Not only this, but also my grandma’s death. So far, the real murderer has not been found.”

These were the two lives she must get justice for.

Rachel clenched her fists, her expression solemn.

Jolly took her hand. “Chris, I will support you no matter what you do.”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you? We’re each other’s ride-or-die. When we arrive back in the country, it’ll be my turf, so when we get there, whoever dares to bully you would have to go through me.”

Rachel’s gaze became much softer, and a faint warmth reflected in her eyes.
