My Mute Bride

Chapter 381 Need Not Empathize With Him

Arthur had passed away two days ago; however, the news of his death was kept secret in order to arrest Jason. His body was currently kept hidden in Tran-Q’s mortuary without informing his friends and family.

The moment Justin lifted the white cloth, his knees turned weak. Clang! He grabbed the armrest of the mortuary bed beside him, and only then did he avoid falling.

Frankie wanted to help him up when he saw Justin’s condition. However, he declined any help with a hand gesture, and his hand that hung in the air was trembling slightly. It was as if the energy in his body was depleted instantly at the sight of his grandfather. And it took a lot of effort for him to lay his eyes on the old man who had passed away.

Grandpa…

No one knew better than Justin how much effort Arthur had spent over the years to protect him and how much effort he had expanded to nurture him into the adult he was now.

Most of the members of the Burton Family only prioritized benefits. That was an undeniable fact! It was also a fact that Arthur was very strict with him. Yet, none of these could change the truth that Arthur genuinely loved him.

Grandpa’s the only relative I have in this world…

“How long have you known?” Justin’s voice echoed in the empty mortuary.

Rachel stood by the door a little stunned, but she said nothing. Her silence explained everything.

He didn’t turn around as he asked her with his back toward her, “You pretended to cooperate with Jason and got in touch with the Jockey Club. You made a deal with Dillon and went to Jublen. You did everything just for today’s sake, am I right?”

Still, she did not answer, and her silence was her answer.

Suddenly, he let out a laugh and raised his head.

At this moment, he felt like a fool. A manipulated fool who was being played around by her.
