My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 211

Since the senior president of the Carter Enterprise, Richard, rarely showed up in public, it was Marilyn who often socialized with the elites of Riverdale. This was the reason why Sue and Amber only knew her and not her husband.

“What do you mean that she is your goddaughter?” Sue was in disbelief. “How did Rachel become your goddaughter?”

“What’s so surprising about it? She and my daughter have been best friends for many years. Why would I need the Burton Family’s permission to acknowledge her as my goddaughter?”

Goddaughter? Sue quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant.”

“I’m not interested in what you’re trying to say.” Marilyn wasn’t in the mood to explain to Sue. Instead, Marilyn turned toward Rachel and held her hand. “I’m sorry for what you had to experience. Don’t worry. With me here, I don’t believe that these two outsiders are qualified to stop us from joining the Burton Family’s banquet.”

Rachel softly replied, “I’m fine, Mrs. Carter.”

“What do you mean that you’re fine? This isn’t the first time that Amber has insulted you with her vicious tongue. Aren’t you disgusted that she is spreading nonsense about you and my dad?” Jolly growled.

Immediately, Marilyn and Richard’s expressions darkened as they showed their displeasure.

However, Sue quickly read the situation and smiled apologetically. “Mr. and Mrs. Carter, this is all just a misunderstanding. Amber is still young, so she always speaks without thinking about it.”
