My Mute Bride

Chapter 333 Secret Meeting

Rachel’s words stunned Justin. A long time had passed before he said, “Rachel, as long as you are willing, you can come and visit Charlotte any time you want. You can even bring her home with you when you’re free. I only have one request. Please don’t take her away from me. No matter what you say, Charlotte is also my daughter. Can we please end this lawsuit?”

She looked astonished. That’s not something Justin will ever say.

Despite her perplexity, she was not so easily swayed. “Justin, it’s true that Charlotte is your only daughter at the moment. Can you guarantee that you will never get married and have other children in the future, though? You know better than I do what kind of environment surrounds the Burton Family. Do you want Charlotte to grow up in the middle of all those conflicts?”

Just based on this point alone, I can never allow Charlotte to remain by his side.

“It doesn’t matter whether you believe me or not, but I will never remarry or have other children.”

“Nobody can say for sure what will happen in the future. You don’t need to say such words.”

The indifference in her eyes made Justin smile bitterly.

“This is an asset transfer agreement.” He pushed a document over to her. “I understand your worries. These are all the assets under my name. I’ve already notarized these assets through an attorney. If I die one day, Charlotte will inherit all of my assets.”

Rachel was taken aback by those words for a moment. Then, she flipped through the document. The number of assets under his name was absolutely staggering; from residential properties to commercial properties to cash to antiques, the list of assets made up an entire book. Is he really willing to notarize all of his assets as an inheritance for Charlotte?

She was so shocked that she became a little hesitant.

“I’m not rushing you to make a decision. There’s still some time before the court hearing and the out-of-court settlement has yet to begin. You can take your time to think things through.”

“I’ll consider it.” Rachel placed the document on the table.

At this moment, she could not figure out the reason behind his behavior. Is he taking a step back for the sake of advancement and stabilizing his position for the time being? Or, does he have something else hidden up his sleeve? In any case, I can’t trust him so easily.

She glanced at the time. “I have to go now. My client is waiting for me.”
