My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 391

Chapter 391 Can’t Just Be Friends

Rachel went straight home. No one was home, so the house was empty. Lately, the two children stayed with Gloria, while Jolly had moved in with Leroy after a fight against her parents.

The originally crowded apartment now seemed deserted. Julian’s words echoed in her ears, causing her brain to buzz as she sat slumped on the sofa.

To say that she didn’t know his intentions was simply self-deception, but to say that she had always known Julian’s intentions wasn’t true either.

Anyone who had seen what she was like six years ago wouldn’t think that Julian would fall in love with her.

She was disabled, a mute who couldn’t even speak when she wanted to.

She was an illegitimate child whom her family had cast out in cold blood, someone who had no dignity to speak of.

Whether it be her qualifications or family background, any ordinary man wouldn’t choose her, not to mention someone who was a young, promising doctor like Julian.

She leaned against the sofa, took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled.

Even now, she believed that Julian wasn’t in love with her but probably sympathized with her. Moreover, they had perhaps grown dependent on each other after spending time together for so many years.

The next day, as soon as Jolly arrived at Hudson Pharmaceuticals, she rushed into Rachel’s office and exclaimed, “What’s going on? Chris, what’s the situation with Julian? Why did he call me so many times last night?”

Rachel was startled from her work and looked up from behind the computer.

Now it was Jolly who was caught off guard. “And what’s up with you? Didn’t you get any sleep last night? Look at those dark circles!”

“Don’t get me started.” Rachel yawned, not in good spirits.

Jolly pulled out the chair in front of her desk and sat down. “Tell me. What’s going on with you two? I was in an argument with my family last night, so I didn’t check my phone at all. I called Julian early in the morning, but he had already gone to a meeting. I’m guessing it was related to you. Tell me the truth. What’s going on?”
