My Mute Bride

“I don’t want to play with you! How could you treat my little brother this way?”

Little brother? Justin was shocked.

Rachel was also astonished.

Holding on to the music box, Charlotte complained loudly, “This is the first time that my little brother is gifting me a music box, yet you broke it! You’re going overboard again and again!”

Stunned, he asked, “Charlotte, you’re angry because of this?”

“Why else would I be angry? Besides, you guys never told me I had a brother!” She cried as her voice grew louder and her shoulders trembled in anger.

At that moment, Samuel wiggled out of Rachel’s arms and ran toward Charlotte to hold her hand. Like a little adult, he consoled her, “It’s alright. I’ll get you a new one, so don’t cry, okay?”

Seeing this, Rachel was filled with mixed feelings.

Unlike the complicated thoughts of adults, the hearts of children were so pure.

In the end, it was Samuel who managed to calm Charlotte down. However, there was still a look of disdain in Justin’s eyes as he watched them bitterly.

Then, Frankie brought the two children from Justin’s office to the lounge to have some snacks, leaving Rachel and him to face each other.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know Samuel would come.”

“Do you think that an apology can undo what you have done?”

He continued with an icy tone, “Well done to you and your son for targeting Charlotte.”

Hearing this, she furrowed her brows. Though everything could be explained, she chose not to say too much.

“I’ll get someone to pick him up. He won’t be staying long.”

“Whatever.”
