My Mute Bride

Chapter 316 Lila Hart Is Coraline Harper

Lila Hart is Coraline Harper. Rachel’s mind instantly flashed to that hair-raising night five years ago. She didn’t even have time to thank Coraline at the time. Unfortunately, they never met each other again afterward. Why is she here? Why did she become Dillon’s bodyguard?

Thinking of Coraline’s identity in the Riverdale Investigation Bureau, she suddenly understood the situation, and her hand trembled uncontrollably. Afraid that somebody might notice, she quietly shifted her hand behind her back.

“What? Are you old classmates? What a coincidence!” Dillon looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of this matter.

Rachel was trying to think of a way to gloss over this incident when ‘Lila’ said, “Young Master Porter, let’s get back to business.”

Clearly unhappy, he glanced sideways at Lila. “I was kindly asking on your behalf. Who knows? Maybe you have a long-lost twin sister or something out there. You should get to know your family as soon as possible so that you won’t be alone for the rest of your life.”

“Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Porter. Compared to being alone for the rest of my life, I’m more worried that you won’t be able to provide the higher-ups with a satisfactory explanation if this matter does not go well.”

He was reminded of the situation with a single sentence. Having been embarrassed in front of Rachel, his expression turned even more sour.

Jason said, “Young Master Porter, you came all the way to Riverdale. I’m sure things will go beautifully. Look, I’ve already brought this person here. It only takes one sentence from her to prepare however much goods you need.”

The conversation was finally brought back on track and Rachel sat down.

On the opposite side, Dillon looked her up and down. “I’m sure you’re already aware of the reason I came here, Miss Hudson.”

She smiled. “Mr. Jason only gave me a rough explanation regarding the matter. Having only been notified of the banquet this afternoon, I did not have time to learn more.”

“Don’t worry. This is normal in our line of work. You will gradually get used to it.” Now that the conversation was much closer to the main topic, his expression became serious. He put away his playboy attitude and continued, “The quality of the drugs we received last time was good. Compared to the other supply channels where the quality is non-standard, what you supplied was way more excellent than the rest. Truly what you’d expect from a family of pharmaceuticals.”

“You’re too kind, Young Master Porter.”
