My Mute Bride

Chapter 273 Indecency

“President Hudson.” Luther acted as if Rachel had come to save him, heaving a sigh of relief. As expected, her arrival alleviated the tension on Justin’s face. Justin then waved his hand to dismiss Luther. “Have the others prepare for the meeting in ten minutes. I want a solution.”

“At once, President Burton. By the way, President Gunson is back, and he should be attending the meeting later.” Hearing the name “Gunson,” Justin immediately scowled. “Got it.”

After Luther exited the room, Justin asked Rachel, “Why did you come? You went home pretty late yesterday. Didn’t I tell you to take a good rest at home?”

“I brought you breakfast.” Rachel gently shook the bag in her hand. “I made some soup for you.”

“You didn’t have to, you know? I could’ve asked Frankie to buy something for me.”

“So you don’t want them? Guess that’s my cue to leave, then.” Saying that, she pretended as if she was about to leave, but was swiftly stopped by Justin. She tripped herself, but Justin managed to save her from the fall. They looked each other in the eyes.

The man then answered, “Of course, I do. I just didn’t want you to overwork yourself.”

Rachel revealed a subtle smile. “A simple breakfast can’t tire me. Come, eat up.”

“Don’t leave yet. You have some too. I’m going for a meeting very soon.”

“Alright.” And so, Rachel accompanied Justin in the office. Watching as he ate, she started inquiring about Luther’s words earlier. “Is ‘President Gunson’ the guy whom your uncle recognized to be his godson?”

“Uh-huh. How did you know?”

“Heard about him six years ago, but I’ve never once seen him. He must be working at the company’s overseas branch and didn’t have time to return.”
