My Mute Bride Chapter 325

Chapter 325 The Reason She Stays by His Side

It had been a night of a roller-coaster ride, which felt surreal to all of them. At the break of dawn, they finally arrived at the Burton Residence.

Justin took a look at the time and uttered, “You two can wash up first. The chauffeur will fetch me later. I’ll tell him to buy you breakfast. You can have some food before sleeping.”

A surprised Rachel asked, “Aren’t you going to have a rest?”

“No. My flight will take off at about 9.00AM. I have to go on a business trip for a few days.”

“What a busy man.” Jolly yawned. “I’m not going to have breakfast. I’m dead-tired. You guys can have all the food.”

Knowing what was on her mind, Justin comforted her by saying, “Stop thinking about it. They only have themselves to blame.”

Rachel pursed her lips as consolation was the last thing she needed now. “I’m not going to have breakfast. I need a rest now.”

When she left, she staggered and almost fell to the ground. An agile Justin wanted to support her weight, but before he even touched her, the woman moved away from him. Upon seeing the aversion behind her eyes, he became startled.

Without saying anything, Rachel frowned and headed upstairs.

As Justin’s bony fingers curled inwards, all he could grasp was air, and he felt hollow in his heart.

“Daddy.”

Justin came to his senses when he heard a child’s voice from upstairs. Charlotte was clad in pajamas with strawberry patterns, and as she rubbed her eyes, she looked like she was still very sleepy.

In a sweet voice, she said, “Did you just come home, Daddy? Where’s Mommy?”
