My mute bride novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129

Rachel’s face was soft and tender to the touch. Although she was pregnant, she was much skinnier than she was before.

At this moment, the initial cold gaze of the man had a flash of pity in it. His gaze was fixated on her for a very long time, and it seemed that he had no plans to leave.

The sound of vibration coming from the phone was exceptionally loud and clear in the house.

After taking a look at the caller ID on the phone, Justin covered the blanket over her before leaving with his phone.

At the sound of the door closing, she opened her eyes. She could hear the sound of a phone call going on from outside the door.

“Have you gotten home?”

“Alright, I’ll bring you to try the gowns out tomorrow.”

Lingering in the air was a hint of alcohol from his body.

After hearing the phone call, she could roughly guess who he met before coming over.

At the thought of that, her eyes turned red as tears started cascading down her cheeks.

Meanwhile, Amber, who was in a car, had a dark face after she hung up the phone.

From the window of the car, she could clearly see the vehicle parked at the entrance of a villa some distance away.

Before he finished eating with her, he left saying that he had an emergency. As she had a gut feeling that something was off, she decided to tail him, only to see what she wished she didn’t.

Rachel, why are you always in the way?

At once, Amber’s grip on the car’s steering tightened, and her eyes were clouded by a shade of coldness.

Julian had told Rachel to rest in bed more. To avoid mishappenings, Mary had cleaned and organized the bedroom on the first floor so that Rachel didn’t have to get off the bed much. Not only that, Rachel was also

served with all sorts of nutritional supplements every day.

At this moment, Gloria came to visit with bags of items. Rachel didn’t even know how Gloria knew that she was here.

“Rae, I’ve brought you some presents!”

After saying that, she started taking out everything in the paper bag and placed them on the bed. “This is a piece of clothing for the baby. It’s pink and super cute! This is a small dress. Maybe she can wear it when she grows up. Oh, and this! It’s a dinosaur onesie. She can wear it when you want to bring her out during winter. There’s also a baby pram that I left outside!”

Gloria was showcasing all the items she bought on the bed like she was running a store.

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

Holding a rattle drum, Gloria flashed Rachel a smile before saying, “Isn’t this rattle drum adorable? The baby will surely like it.”

With the blanket covering over half of her body, she caressed her stomach; her complexion was pale yet peaceful.

‘How are you so sure that it’s a girl?’

Everything Gloria bought was for a girl.

“Call it a gut feeling. I think a girl will be adorable. Justin has such a cold personality, so it’s not the best if you get a son like him. Thus, a girl will be better since she will be as gentle as you are.”

Hearing that, Rachel forced a smile.

“What’s going on? Are you opening a boutique?”

With a bowl of soup in his hands, Victor walked in to see that Gloria had placed a number of goods on the bed. At once, his face turned sour before he complained, “Are you here to make a mess? Go along, get out. Don’t disturb Rachel from resting.”

“Who’s here to make a mess? Can’t you see that I’ve bought some stuff for the baby?”

“All I know is that Rachel can’t use these right now, so you can keep them and scram!”

“Say that again!”

Seeing that the situation was getting tense, Rachel quickly tugged on Gloria’s hand before she shook her head at the both of them.

Upon Rachel’s persuasion, Gloria suppressed her anger as she gave Victor one last glare.

“Rachel, try this chicken soup.”

After he set the small table onto the bed, he placed the bowl down while kicking the bunch of items along with the rattle drum away purposely. The goods that were initially placed on the bed then fell to the ground with some clacking noise.
