My Mute Bride

Chapter 386 Passive-Aggressive

The air in the car was almost frozen. In the rearview mirror, Frankie could not bear to look at the man’s facial expression in the back seat. “President Burton, why don’t I go and ask?” “What are you going to ask?” Instantly, Frankie was at a loss for words. What am I going to ask?

Frankie knew Justin’s current mood better than anyone else. No one could understand the pain of being betrayed by their own family. Julian was the cousin he grew up with, and Rachel was the woman he loved all his life. Yet, both of them walked away from him at the same time.

“Let’s go.”

After saying those two words with much difficulty, he finally retracted his gaze and leaned back against the back of the chair feebly.

Even though he was odd to think this, he did not hate anyone or feel any anger.

At the moment when Julian appeared at the memorial service and was announced as the heir of Burton Group, Justin had no other emotions except for a moment of astonishment.

Similarly, Justin was neither angry nor even jealous when he saw Rachel rush over to the park a while ago and walk side by side with Julian on the path along the river, looking like a match made in heaven.

At this moment, Justin finally understood what it meant to lose. The real meaning of loss was that one did not even have the qualifications to retain something or someone.

It’s better this way. The current Julian is capable enough to protect Rachel. He is her best refuge.

“Frankie.”

“Yes, President Burton.”

“Book me a flight to Montenegro.”

“You’re going to Montenegro?” Frankie was stunned for a moment, but he nodded in agreement shortly after. “That’s right. You need to rest for a while. Don’t worry. I’ll help you make proper arrangements regarding the matter on Burton Group. Well then, when will you be back?”

However, Justin did not say a word. He didn’t know how long he would be away. He seemed to have no reason to stay in Riverdale any longer.
