My Mute Bride Chapter 292

Chapter 292 Smart Aunt Gloria

As she spoke, Gloria studied Rachel’s expression. “At that time, doctors said it was highly likely that he would fall into a vegetative state where he would never wake up.”

“Does that mean you took care of Charlotte before he regained consciousness?” Rachel asked. “Huh?” Gloria paused for a moment before nodding. “Yeah.”

“In that case, thank you so much.” Rachel took her hand. “It’s arduous to take care of a newborn and if it weren’t for you, Charlotte might not have been able to survive.”

“There’s no need to be this courteous with me, Rachel. Charlotte is my niece, so how could I have neglected her?”

“I still wish to thank you, so this glass is for you.” Without saying anything else, Rachel snagged Jolly’s glass and gulped it at one go.

Now that Jolly was startled awake, she mumbled blearily, “Drink! Drink!”

However, as she was unable to stop Rachel in time, Gloria could only watch on and frowned as Rachel finished drinking from the glass. Weren’t we talking about Charlotte? How did the topic change?

“You were doing fine abroad, Rachel. Why did you suddenly come back?”

“You must have heard about what happened to the Hudson Family.”

“A little bit.”

“One of the reasons is that we’ve finally sought revenge for Hans. Another cause is that I’m worried about leaving Charlotte here alone.”

Rachel had never once brought up Justin throughout her speech.

“Well, Justin has taken care of her quite well all these years,” Gloria pointed out. “Although I don’t talk to him a lot, his personality has changed a bit since he lost his memory. You must have noticed it as well.”

As she declined to answer, Rachel instead poured Jolly a glass of water, exhorting her to have a drink of it before sleeping.

After a moment of hesitation, Gloria decided that Rachel still had a cold attitude toward Justin and swallowed the words that she wanted to say.

It was fine since they still had time.

Meanwhile, in the restaurant’s children’s play area, Charlotte went down the slide and into the ball pit. She was clearly thrilled to see Gloria return.
