My Mute Bride

Chapter 369 A Fight in the Club

Rachel narrowed her eyes at Robin for a long while before asking, “President Gunson, what are you doing?”

Robin’s mouth curved up as his lewd eyes glanced at Rachel’s body from top to bottom. “I am sure you always had good men fall for you, Miss Hudson, but I bet you had never been surrounded by a group of charming men to please you, have you? Relax, you should loosen up a little.” He smirked.

Then, he made a gesture to those male escorts who stood in a line behind Rachel. At once, the escorts immediately surrounded her and said, “Miss Hudson.”

“Get away from me!” she squeaked. With force, Rachel pushed one of them away from her, and her gaze was full of disgust. Then, she took a deep breath to suppress her emotions, and her voice was icy cold. “President Gunson, don’t cross the line.”

“Crossing the line?” Robin sneered, “Weren’t you the one who agreed to stay along? Did I force you to come? And yet, here you are.”

“As far as I am concerned, the matter between us was quite a bumpy ride, but it has long ended and we should leave it behind us now. You are now the president of the Burton Group, and the seat is barely warmed, President Gunson. I don’t think it is a wise choice to start picking on me just yet,” she asserted.

“Are you threatening me? You can’t possibly think that Justin will make a comeback now, do you?” he curiously asked.

“Who knows? At the very least, he’s a Burton.” Rachel snickered.

It seemed like Rachel’s words had hit the nail on the head. Robin despised it when people said he wasn’t a Burton. Although he had been Jason’s godson for so many years, he had never gotten the chance to change his surname to Burton. After all, the more one couldn’t get something, the more they got bothered by it.

Smash! People in the lounge started screaming as they saw Robin smash a whiskey glass against the table.

He stared at her with a flare in his eyes, and he growled, “Don’t you step over me, Rachel! I am showing courtesy to you by inviting you to come here, but who the hell do you think you are? Do you still consider yourself the honorable young lady of the Hudsons? Have you forgotten what it was like to be ‘sold’ by your father to the Burton Family?” Then, he continued in exasperation, “Back then, you were ‘sold,’ but now I’m willing to ‘buy’ you in again! You should be happy that you still had some ‘market value’!”

Rachel’s face turned pale, and she clenched her teeth so hard that her whole body was shaking.

It is better to offend a gentleman a thousand times than a villain once, she thought. Once people like Robin held power in their hands, all their previous grudges would surface and they would start to act retaliatory.
