My Mute Bride

Chapter 286 Betrothal Gift

In response, Rachel nodded respectfully. “Thank you.” Logically speaking, as well as in consideration of their interests, it made complete sense for the group to accept her offer.

“Okay, then. I won’t intrude any further. I’ll be on my way.” With that, Rachel glanced toward a tombstone that was some distance away, and said, “Mr. Holt, if you would help me pay my respects.”

After she had said that, she turned around and left. Just then, Justin frowned and raced after her. “Rachel!” “Justin!” Amber instantly grabbed his sleeve. “Justin, you should be able to clearly see this woman’s true self now. She has been making use of you since the start.”

“Let go!” Justin’s expression was currently cold and thunderous. Upon hearing that, Amber trembled and instinctively released her grip on his sleeve.

Meanwhile, Justin flicked off the nonexistent lint on his shirt and coldly responded, “I promised to attend the funeral to stand up for you for the sake of our collaboration. Now that there won’t be a collaboration, there’s nothing else left between us.”

He had originally intended to tackle Amber and then subsequently take control of the old fogeys from Hudson Pharmaceuticals so that by the time Rachel needed help, it would be much easier for him to transfer the shares to her. Right now, however, it seemed that Rachel didn’t need his help. On the contrary, his unnecessary interference had resulted in a misunderstanding.

“Justin!”

Just then, Amber angrily stomped her feet as soon as she saw him rush off. I’m sure things aren’t irrevocable just yet!

At that moment, Rachel had just entered her car, but the door to the front passenger seat was suddenly yanked open and someone rushed in.

“What are you doing here?!”

Rachel’s expression changed the moment she saw Justin. “Get out of my car!”

“No,” Justin responded. “I’ve got something to tell you.”

“If this is regarding Hudson Pharmaceuticals, then I have nothing to say. You should have already known from the start about my intentions toward Hudson Pharmaceuticals, as I have never kept that a secret from you.”

“You stole the document that I was prepared to shred and get rid of, and yet you’re so indignant about the situation?! So, I’m not even allowed to mention anything about that?”
