My mute bride novel (Rachel and Justin)
Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Upon hearing that, Jason was so embarrassed that he could barely stand still.

If he had known that Tina was indeed pregnant, he would have forced her to abort it even if it was the end of the world. Little did he know, her ballsiness allowed her to conceal the truth even from her father! Now, how was he supposed to clean such an enormous mess?

"Ah! Blood!"

An anonymous voice shouted just then, to which the crowd redirected their eyes at Tina's crotch.

Evidently, blood was flowing down her little thighs as her white, silky dress was stained red. The view was rather nauseating.

As the woman's father, there was no way Jason could leave her alone. Therefore, he ordered someone else to carry her and send her to the hospital. Meanwhile, the situation was getting out of control. Gloria clutched Justin's sleeves as her face turned pale. She said, "Oh, dear..."

In response, Justin patted her shoulders to comfort her. His composed mannerism suggested that he was used to such a sight.

It seems that playing with fire eventually got her burned.

"You're not surprised at all... Have you known this long ago?"

"Yeah."

"Did you cause all of this?"

"No," answered Justin as he looked into the distance before asking his assistant, "Where's the missus?"

With that, Gloria was baffled.

Indeed, they hadn't seen her for a while.

As if he had thought of something, his face darkened all of a sudden.

"Where are you going?"

"Wait for me here. I'll be right back."

After leaving her behind, Justin hurriedly departed.

On the second floor of the banquet hall, Rachel was standing in the corner with the greatest view in the room.

Having witnessed everything that happened downstairs, she gripped the rail tightly. Her hands started

shaking when Tina started bleeding and was sent to the hospital.

"Like what you see?"

A familiar man's voice sounded from behind.

At once, her body froze. When she turned around, Justin's hand was already on her neck. "Who gave you such balls to look for Noah?"

While being strangled, Rachel was forcefully pushed against the rail as her body was correspondent to the

ground. A release of a hand would drop her to the first floor.

Yet, she gritted her teeth.

I've got no idea what you're talking about.

"Oh, is that so?" Justin took a step forward as he tightened his grip. "Not many apart from you know about Tina and Henry's affair. You swear it's not you?" Will you believe me if I say it's not me?

Rachel glanced at her surroundings from the corner of her eyes and saw the grand piano on the first floor. If she were to fall, she would be disabled if not dead. Since she did not dare to shake him off too violently, she proceeded to sign a bunch of words. I don't even know about her pregnancy!

At once, Justin was stunned.

Indeed, even Jason didn't know about Tina's pregnancy, so how could Rachel possibly know about it?

With that, the force on her neck lessened as Justin pulled Rachel from above the rail.

The latter couldn't stop coughing as she held onto the rail.

"It better not be you. If I replace out that you were the one who told Noah... You know what's coming for you!"

Stupefied, Rachel shook her head in panic as she staggered backward.

Upon seeing that, Justin was reminded of her injury from earlier, and he couldn't help but frown. "Why are you running around when you're still hurt? Is this not enough chaos for you?"

I just wanted to rest in a quieter place.

"Go home. Your business here is over."

Okay.

As she watched while Justin left, Rachel finally heaved a sign of relief.

Eventually, she was able to hold back her coughs while the anxiety in her eyes vanished and she regained her cool.

Back at the library's pre-construction ceremony, she had caught Tina sneakily swallowing some pills while hiding. From then on, she had been wary of her movements. Later on, she found out that Tina was consuming folate, and that pretty much confirmed her suspicions.

The child certainly did not belong to Noah, or else she wouldn't have to be so shady about it.

After linking to it all the previous incidents, Rachel added fuel to the fire and exaggerated her words while talking to Noah. She was aware that no man in the world would be able to accept the fact that their woman was cheating on them, especially when they were womanizers like Noah.

Without a doubt, Tina's engagement banquet had turned into a troublesome drama.

Meanwhile, Amber was utterly dumbfounded by the exposure. However, as Tina's so-called best friend and the only doctor on the spot, she had to act like it and escorted Tina to the hospital.

Outside the surgery room, she was continuously trying to consult Tina's mother.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Burton-that's Dr. Vidar who's currently operating on your daughter. He's the best in the hospital, so Tina will surely be fine."

As she wiped her tears, Lilian felt upset and perturbed. "Why did she cause such a big feud? Her dad's now trying to apologize to the Hindenburgs. How embarrassing!"

Meanwhile, Amber pursed her lips forcefully.

Now that the connection between Tina and the Hindenburg Family was speculated to be over, Amber wondered if Tina could continue staying in Riverdale. If she were to continue interacting with the latter, she would surely stain her name.

Having come to that, she came up with an excuse and took her leave.

Right when she was entering the emergency exit, a figure suddenly grabbed her and covered her mouth while pressing her against the wall.

Amber widened her eyes and mumbled, "Mmph!"

With a dull face, Noah then interrogated, "You must have known about the affair between Tina and that foul scoundrel, right? You even hid it for her, didn't you?"

After shaking her head vigorously, she started bursting into tears.

Noah obviously had too much to drink as he reeked of alcohol. As he groped her body, he didn't even try to conceal the indecency in his eyes. "I should have known that she's not much of a proper lady since she's always hanging around with you. B*tches, all of you b*tches!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed Amber's cheeks and said scornfully, "She's already had her punishment. What about you?"

Amber cried and pleaded, "I did nothing. Please let me go, Noah, I knew nothing about this! Nothing, I swear!"

"Nothing at all? How do you expect me to believe that?"

With that, the clothes on her shoulder were torn. Before she could scream out loud, a big hand was forced upon her mouth.

In the dark emergency room, all that could be heard were the steps of some medical staff walking around in the building.

Her body was trembling, yet she was too timid to yell.

Who is it? Who revealed the entire thing?

Meanwhile, Rachel put the checkbook back to its spot before leaning against the back of the chair.

After contemplating for a while, she couldn't figure out who her father would have handed the checkbook to for safekeeping. Since the checkbook was hidden, there had to be some reason behind the concealment. Perhaps...

Hudson Vineyard popped up in her mind.

All of a sudden, the door creaked open.

Upon raising her head, Rachel saw Amber crossing her arms at the door with an irksome face. "How devilish can you be, Rachel? Seizing my shares and viewing yourself as a tycoon? Why didn't you answer my call?"

Rachel glowered and took a look at her phone.

I probably missed it. I was busy this morning. You got a problem?

"Of course I have a problem. Do you know that Tina miscarried? She wasn't able to keep her child, and her chances of getting pregnant naturally has decreased. She's infertile now!"

Rachel responded with a scowl and gestured. What does that have to do with me?
