My Mute Bride

Chapter 229 A Meal Made With Love for a Patient

Meanwhile, Charlotte got out of the car outside the hospital under escort by her bodyguards. She came to the hospital to visit Justin. She had been angry with him a few days ago when Rachel didn’t return home. However, while she was still in a sulk, she heard that he had been hospitalized. She got anxious at once, and she insisted on coming to the hospital.

As soon as Charlotte exited the elevator and walked toward the ward, she saw a familiar figure standing against the wall from a distance. “Mommy?” she called tentatively at first. The instant Rachel looked back, her eyes immediately lit up, and she ran toward her. “Mommy! Why are you standing here instead of going in?”

Rachel was startled as well. Evidently, she didn’t expect to run into Charlotte here. “Why are you here, Charlotte?”

“I’m here to visit Daddy. You’re here to visit Daddy too, aren’t you, Mommy?”

“No, I’m not—”

Before Rachel could finish her sentence, Samuel was heard lecturing Justin in the ward. “Don’t waste the food. You must finish the meal Mommy prepared, or I won’t bring you meals anymore!”

Charlotte instantly figured out what had happened. “Mommy, did you prepare a meal for Daddy?” she asked. Then, before Rachel could speak, she immediately dragged her into the ward. “Come in with me, Mommy. Come in with me!”

Since Rachel wasn’t prepared, she staggered while Charlotte dragged her into the ward.

“Mommy?” Samuel looked back and winked at Rachel while standing in front of the sickbed. When he saw Charlotte, the two clever kids looked at each other knowingly.

Justin, who was eating the fish soup, started coughing at once when he saw Rachel.

Rachel frowned as she handed the box of tissue beside her to him.

Justin stopped coughing and resumed his overbearing manner. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be coming?”

Rachel replied, “Frankie called me and said you refused to eat lunch because the food in the hospital wasn’t to your taste.”
