My Mute Bride

Chapter 252 A Battle of Two Men

Lisa stuffed the bouquet of roses into Rachel’s arms and reminded her, “There’s also a card inside.” When Rachel saw the card, Lisa started to ambiguously read it out loud. ‘Congratulations to my dear Chris for letting go of the past and accepting her new life. I love you.’

Instantly, it caused a huge uproar within the office. “Did President Burton give you this?” “Oh my God, I didn’t expect him to be such a romantic person since he rarely smiles.”

“What do you know? Men are usually romantic when they meet the person whom they love.”

As she perused the contents on the card, Rachel felt a little resigned. She didn’t even need to think to investigate who gave the flowers from this blatant style of writing. “It’s not him. You all have misunderstood.”

However, the crowd’s roar instantly overwhelmed her explanation.

“Alright. We had enough of you two love birds. It’s time to slice the cake.”

“She needs to blow the candles first.”

“That’s right. Congratulations on your promotion, Chris. I hope that you are treating us to dinner tonight.”

Now that the office was filled with laughter and chatter, Rachel remained quiet and agreed to treat everyone to a meal while she held the large bouquet of roses in her arms.

Meanwhile, in the president’s office upstairs, Justin was reading through some documents and noticed that the cup next to him was already empty. “Miss Evergreen.”

He called his secretary to serve him more tea, but there was no response.

A while later, he noticed that his cup was still empty, so he immediately furrowed his brows and went out the door. Then, he saw several secretaries gathering around each other as if they were discussing something.

“What are you all looking at?” His cold voice was heard.

When the secretaries heard his voice, they instantly rose in shock. “President Burton!”

The phone fell on the floor, and for some reason, someone had accidentally played the video on the screen.
