My Mute Bride

Chapter 226 Keep Her for Yourself if You Like

“That’s right. Are you that surprised?” “Indeed, I’m a bit surprised. Could it be that you’d like to continue working together with Burton Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Wayne? If that’s the case, we can put off firing Rachel for the time being.”

“Don’t give me that crap! Don’t you dare think I have no idea that you and your wife are just pretending in front of me again. I’m telling you, Justin—your son is in my hands right now!” Mr. Wayne suddenly darted a look at Rachel. “Your woman is now in my hands as well. If you don’t come over, I’ll throw your son into the river and feed the fishes. Guess what will happen to your woman then.”

Justin let out a sneer on the other end of the line. “Are you kidding me, Mr. Wayne? Everyone in Riverdale knows that I only have a daughter. Since when did I get myself a son?”

Mr. Wayne frowned upon hearing Justin’s words.

“As for the boy you kidnapped, I’m also curious about who his biological father is. Please find that out on my behalf before throwing him into the river. As for Rachel, just keep her for yourself if you want to.”

“Justin! You—”

The call was disconnected right away.

Meanwhile, the bodyguards in the theater looked at each other in amazement; this was the first time they had ever seen such a cruel man. Doesn’t he care about his son and woman?

Mr. Wayne glared at Rachel angrily. “You two are pretending in front of me here, aren’t you?”

Rachel replied, “I’ve told you earlier that he doesn’t care about us. Even if we aren’t divorced, you cannot threaten him by abducting us both.”

Mr. Wayne’s face turned livid with anger. Just then, one of the bodyguards suggested, “Mr. Wayne, it seems that Justin Burton cares about his daughter the most. How about we find a way to get her here?”
