My Mute Bride

Chapter 239 I Want to Hear It From You

As soon as the name ‘Hans’ came out of Justin’s mouth, Rachel was significantly caught by surprise. She then tightened her grip of her tightly clenched fist until her fingernails pressed into her palms painfully. The pain instantly brought her back to her senses.

“Who did you talk to?” “Answer me!” Justin raised his voice all of a sudden and grabbed Rachel’s arm threateningly. “I’m asking you, who’s Hans? Why did you come back to Riverdale?”

“Why are you asking me about Hans? Why don’t you ask yourself then?” Just then, Rachel had a stoic expression on her face. “He was the only person other than grandma who treated me kindly. He moved back from abroad because of me and he helped me multiple times. However, he ended up disabled because of you. He was crippled…”

Rachel flung Justin’s arm aside as her words became much more emotional and her raised voice reverberated in the house. “Do you need me to continue reminding you of the past?!”

There was a ripping pain that came from the wound on Justin’s back and the vein on his temples pulsed furiously. “That’s why you hate me so much!”

It’s not even because I mistreated her after our marriage! It’s all because of this guy, Hans! She hates me so intensely because I crippled him!

“Is there any point in me harboring hatred against you?! Hans is dead! He can’t come back from the grave! I don’t see any point in discussing this with you any further because you have no recollection of all this. Since you don’t trust me and have your suspicions and choose to confront me because of someone dead for nearly six years, what’s the point of entering into a relationship with me then?” With that, Rachel turned on her heels to leave. However, Justin suddenly grabbed her and roared, “Stop right there!”

“Let go of me!”

“I didn’t say that you could leave!”

“What do you want from me? Let go of me!”

During their struggle, Justin suddenly hugged Rachel from behind. “I was only asking you who he is! I can’t remember anything so I wanted to confirm his identity with you. I don’t care about what others say, I just wanted to hear it from you.”

“Well, you’ve got your answer now. Is it the same as what others told you? Are you satisfied now?”

Though she was held in his embrace, her expression remained indifferent. “If you don’t trust my words, why don’t you give Frankie a call? I’m quite sure that he’s well aware of everything that happened in the past and he would never lie to you.”

“There’s no need for that.” Justin said, his tone soft.
