My Mute Bride

Chapter 358 Two Body Doubles

Rachel didn’t have it in her to watch the rest of the video on Leroy’s phone. Justin had already knowingly turned his head to the side, pretending that he didn’t know anything.

Meanwhile, Jolly finished changing into her fresh set of clothes and emerged from the bedroom. When she saw Leroy was showing Rachel and Justin the contents of the video being circulated on media websites, she charged over and snatched the phone over.

“What are you looking at? What’s so fun about it?” She even blew a gasket.

“It’s not something fun to watch, but that video’s already been shared over a million times online. There’s at least a million people who saw that video. Snatching the phone from me won’t do anything.”

“Since they’ve already watched it, fine, but you’re not allowed to!”

“What kind of reasoning is that? I’m helping you to find a way out of this.” Rachel was exasperated. She hadn’t watched the video out of curiosity. The only way she would be able to know why the fans were angry and find a way to resolve this uproar was to watch it.

“So, have you figured out something?”

Rachel threw her hands up in helplessness. “Nope.”

Right then, Leroy’s phone rang. Jolly reflexively took a look at the screen and handed the phone back to him. “Your manager.”

Leroy answered the phone in front of everyone. “Hello, Emmett? …Yeah, I’m still at the hotel. …No, Jolly and I aren’t the only ones here. Two of her friends are here too. One of them is Miss Hudson, the president of Hudson Pharmaceuticals.”

No one had any idea what Leroy’s manager said, but Leroy looked panicked as he glanced at Rachel and Justin. “That’s not exactly a good idea, right?” he asked, a complicated emotion in his tone.

Leroy’s manager talked to him for a bit longer. After he hung up, Jolly asked Leroy, “Is your manager here already? Where is he?”

“In the parking lot. Right now, he can’t come up; his car’s been surrounded by
