My Mute Bride

Chapter 337 I Won’t Die, but She Will

Rachel drove home in the night without taking any detours. The moment she closed the door behind her, her hands holding the car keys trembled slightly.

“Why are you only back at this hour?” Jolly had been waiting for Rachel inside the house. “I was so worried. I was about to contact Janice if you still have not returned. What’s wrong? Are you okay?” She immediately noticed that Rachel’s complexion was terrible. “What happened?”

Rachel tossed the car keys aside and sat down. Afterward, she briefly recounted everything that happened tonight to Jolly.

Jolly was petrified. “I can’t believe that they set up a trap within a trap! Wouldn’t you have died if you had believed that Lila is Coraline and accepted the phone together with the route map!?”

“You’re wrong.” Rachel shook her head. “If I had kept the phone and the route map, I would not have died, but Coraline would have died instead.”

“Coraline? Didn’t you say that Lila is not Coraline?”

“No. She is Coraline.”

Everything that happened tonight from the time she received the note Coraline stuffed in her hand at the entrance of the private room to the blurry address written on the note to the instructions to head to the public phone booth to receive the call—all of these were part of Dillon’s trap.

On the other hand, the route map in the phone hidden at the public phone booth was the trap set up by that ‘Master Porter’.

The trap that Dillon set was insignificant as it was just a foolish one that his father had used as a diversion.

“In the underground garage, Lila made a gesture with her hand before she pointed her gun at Justin.”

“What gesture?”

Rachel imitated the hand gesture for Jolly to see. “The meaning of this hand gesture is ‘hit me’.”

“She asked you to hit her?”
