My mute bride novel (Rachel and Justin) novel Chapter 200

“I don’t want to play with you! How could you treat my little brother this way?”

Little brother? Justin was shocked.

Rachel was also astonished.

Holding on to the music box, Charlotte complained loudly, “This is the first time that my little brother is gifting me a music box, yet you broke it! You’re going overboard again and again!”

Stunned, he asked, “Charlotte, you’re angry because of this?”

“Why else would I be angry? Besides, you guys never told me I had a brother!” She cried as her voice grew louder and her shoulders trembled in anger.

At that moment, Samuel wiggled out of Rachel’s arms and ran toward Charlotte to hold her hand. Like a little adult, he consoled her, “It’s alright. I’ll get you a new one, so don’t cry, okay?”

Seeing this, Rachel was filled with mixed feelings.

Unlike the complicated thoughts of adults, the hearts of children were so pure.

In the end, it was Samuel who managed to calm Charlotte down. However, there was still a look of disdain in Justin’s eyes as he watched them bitterly.

Then, Frankie brought the two children from Justin’s office to the lounge to have some snacks, leaving Rachel and him to face each other.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know Samuel would come.”

“Do you think that an apology can undo what you have done?”

He continued with an icy tone, “Well done to you and your son for targeting Charlotte.”

Hearing this, she furrowed her brows. Though everything could be explained, she chose not to say too much.

“I’ll get someone to pick him up. He won’t be staying long.”

“Whatever.”

After saying this, he turned to look at his laptop and ignored her.

Right after she came out of the office, she called Jolly, yet no one picked up. Perhaps she had gone somewhere to have fun.

Just as she was about to enter the elevator, her phone vibrated in her pocket. Initially, when she answered the phone, she thought that it was Jolly, but was met with a strange yet familiar voice.

“Rachel.”

Jefferey’s voice had not changed at all even after five years. He always spoke to her harshly and arrogantly. “Where are you now? I want to see you.”

She clenched tightly onto her phone before calming down a moment later. “Sure, but I’m not free right now. Let’s talk after I’m off from work.”

It seemed that he did not understand what she was saying. With a low voice, he told her, “I’ll be waiting for you at the café beside the Burton Group in half an hour.”

Half an hour?

She sneered as she looked at her watch.

An hour and a half later, she finally went down to the café slowly after seeing more than ten missed calls on her phone.

When she reached, she recognized him almost immediately.

Unsure if it was just an illusion, she felt that he had aged quite a lot seeing that the gray hair on the side of his temples had turned completely white. He also looked very haggard.

Even so, he had a stern look plastered on his face the moment he set his eyes on Rachel. With a grim expression, he chided, “You made me wait here for one hour!”

Unaffected by his behavior, she replied calmly, “It’s just one hour. There are people who wait for a day even after making an appointment to meet me. I’ve already made an exception for you.”

“What appointment?” His face went livid. “How could you associate me with them? I’m your father!”
