My Mute Bride Chapter 385

Chapter 385 The Right Decision

Rachel was utterly flummoxed, and she could not believe what she had just heard. “Pardon?” “Julian! I said, Julian Peters! You weren’t mistaken.” Jolly emphasized Julian’s name over and over again excitedly. “Can you believe it? Julian is the grandson of Old Mr. Burton, an illegitimate child of the Burton Family.”

Suddenly, Rachel’s hand shook, and the pen she was holding created a tragic scratch on the report.

Not noticing Rachel’s reaction, Jolly continued saying, “Everyone is now guessing who Julian’s father is. Old Mr. Burton only has two sons in total. So his eldest son, Justin’s father, is likely to be Julian’s father. After all, Sue was his sister-in-law. So the story of the affairs between a brother-in-law and sister-in-law is now spreading.”

“That’s impossible!”

“Huh?” Jolly was taken aback. “Why is it impossible?”

“When Justin’s father died, Julian wasn’t even born yet.”

“Really?” Just like those outsiders, Jolly did not know when Justin’s father died.

After that, Rachel explained, “The relationship between Justin’s father and Old Mr. Burton was not very good. He ran away from home and got married secretly in the past. When he died unexpectedly, Justin was only about three or four years old. Later, Old Mr. Burton took Justin home, but because he was young and afraid of strangers, Sue followed him to the Burton Residence to take care of him.”

These are the things Justin told me back then. I still remember them very well.

Jolly said, “Was Sue already married, right? So then, who was her husband?”

“I’m not sure. But Julian was indeed born in the Burton Residence.”

“Could it be that Old Mr. Burton has a third son?” Jolly made a presumption with her overactive mind.

Rachel side-eyed Jolly and said, “Have you ever thought of another possibility?”

“What possibility? If it’s not Justin’s father, doesn’t that indicate that Old Mr. Burton has a third son? There’s no way it was Jason.” Jolly was in a world all by herself when she finished her sentence. However, she realized something when she finished her rant.

She looked at Rachel in surprise. “No way!”
