My Mute Bride Chapter 240

Chapter 240 I Dare You to Lay Hands on Him Again!

“Oh—do you know me?” Amber frowned. “I don’t think we’ve met each other before, though?” “We haven’t, but Charlotte’s shown me your picture and she said that you’re an annoying old witch.”

“What did you just say?!” Amber’s expression turned all of a sudden. “You little b*stard! Capture him for me!” Upon hearing that, Samuel turned around and ran off. As he scrambled to get away, he kept a protective grip on the pancakes in his arms but unfortunately, he was in a rush and the pancakes, which had been cut into smaller pieces, fell to the ground.

At the back, the tall blokes stepped on the pancakes as they chased after him.

“Bam!” Suddenly, one of them slipped on the pancakes and fell to the ground. At the same time, the guy behind him tripped over him and both of them fell on all fours. Thereafter, they struggled hard to get up from the ground.

“You two imbeciles! Hurry up and get him for me!”

Meanwhile, Samuel had already made his way to the entrance of the alley and he was quite pleased with himself. However, he suddenly saw a strapping figure right in front of him and he hastily halted in his tracks as he nearly crashed into the guy.

The clicking sound of high heels against the ground rang out once again. “You’re just a silly kid. Do you actually think that you can get away?”

Just then, Samuel’s expression stiffened. “You guys better not lay hands on me! Otherwise, my daddy and mommy won’t let you get away with this.”

”Stop with your bullsh*t! You’re just a b*stard! Just because you’ve fooled the others doesn’t mean that I’m oblivious. You’re not a Burton kid and Justin doesn’t even give a hoot about you. I can’t lay hands

on that darn girl but that doesn’t mean I can’t do anything to you!”

Amber then continued, “Once I capture you and chase Rachel away, I’ll have plenty of time to make my way back to the Burton Family.”

And so, Samuel was forced to retreat by the huge bloke in front of him while the two blokes from behind had also caught up with him. Despite Samuel being quite agile due to his size, he couldn’t quite handle all three of them as he was just a child, after all.

At that moment, just as the strapping bloke in front of Samuel reached out his huge palm to grab Samuel, the bloke suddenly screamed in pain. The man then clutched his head and fell to the ground. It was quite lucky that Samuel managed to dodge the man as he almost got crushed underneath the guy.

Samuel was stunned for a moment before his eyes brightened when he saw the person who’d just turned up. “Mr. Wade!”

Victor was currently holding onto a golf club and he reached out to pull Samuel to stand behind him. Then, he stared coldly at Amber and her two thugs who were standing across from him.

“Victor?!” Amber’s expression changed.

“I can’t believe you still recognize me. We haven’t seen each other for quite some time now, my dear ex-girlfriend.”

“Excuse me?! Who’s your ex-girlfriend?” Amber replied indignantly. “Why are you appearing everywhere?! Are you stalking me?! Hand me that little b*stard!”

“I dare you to mention ‘little b*stard’ again!” Suddenly, Rachel’s voice rang out from behind Amber.

Upon hearing that, Amber shuddered in response. She turned around and saw that Rachel had three to five hulking blokes behind her. Somehow, they had arrived unnoticed and blocked the entrance to the alley. Hence, Amber and her thugs were stuck in between them and Victor, with no path to escape.

This was unexpected to Amber, and it seemed that the hunter had now become the hunted.

“You… You guys…”

“I expected that you wouldn’t just take this lying down so recently, I’ve been here waiting until Samuel and Charlotte enter their school before leaving. I can’t believe you’re so lacking in self-restraint; you just failed in your efforts to drive me and Justin apart from that phone call you placed last night and today, you’ve gone straight after Samuel.”

Rachel moved forward menacingly as Amber’s face paled bit by bit. Just then, the latter reprimanded her lackeys, “What are you waiting for?! Get them!”

However, it was quite obvious that they were no match for their opponents. Rachel had brought along four to five guys, so the two thugs were obviously on the losing end.

Just then, Rachel spoke. “If you leave right away, I can accept that nothing happened and that I never met you two as well.”

Both guys instantly nodded earnestly. “Thank you! Thank you so much. We’ll leave right away!”

“You two, stay right there!”

However, Amber’s fingers flailed in the air without managing to grab hold of anyone. Meanwhile, the two guys fled the scene and left her behind.

“What are you going to do to me anyway, Rachel?!” Amber glared furiously at her. “I was the one who called Justin! So what? Don’t tell me that you didn’t come back because of Hans?! You have ill

intentions anyway!” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes, I came back because of Hans.” Rachel admitted to it readily and she countered, “So what? How does that change anything? You’ve already told Justin but did it make any difference?”

“That’s because he’s been deceived! Who knows what sort of shameless methods you’ve used?!”

Amber responded with gritted teeth and she glanced at Samuel by the side from the corner of her eye. “Justin must also have acknowledged this little b*stard here because of your shameless methods, right?”

Meanwhile, Rachel’s expression darkened. “Victor, take Samuel away.”

Upon hearing that, Victor immediately took Samuel into his arms and walked off. The whole time, he covered the child’s ears to prevent him from hearing the subsequent words.

As soon as Victor disappeared from the alley, Rachel removed her watch and placed it into her pocket. Then, she turned to the blokes behind her and mentioned in a low voice, “Keep a hold on her.”

Upon hearing that, Amber became quite frantic. “What are you trying to do?!”

Two men held her in a tight grip on her sides and held her tightly against the concrete wall. Before she could even yell out, there was a sharp, ripping pain that originated from her scalp.

Turned out that Rachel had grabbed Amber by the hair and the former lifted her arm to slap the other woman on the face.

“Ah!” Amber’s high-pitched scream reverberated throughout the alley and she stared incredulously at Rachel before yelling out, “Have you lost your mind?! How dare you hit me? I swear I’ll kill you if you don’t let me go right now!”

“Kill me?! I’ve been dead ages ago, Amber.” Rachel’s cold sneer was quite terrifying. “I died five years ago after guys worked together to force me to the brink. I held onto my last breath and made my way out to seek revenge for those who’ve died in vain. Do you know that I haven’t had a good night’s sleep all this while?”

Rachel held tightly onto Amber’s hair. Then, Rachel moved her face closer to the other woman and forced her to look at her. “Do you ever have nightmares of the people you’ve forced to their death? You’re also responsible for Hans’ death. If you hadn’t repeatedly sowed discord, Justin would not have laid his hands on Hans!”

“Hans’s legs were crippled by Justin, so what does that have to do with me?! Let go of me!”

“Be patient. I’ll come after each of you, one after the other.”

Just then, Rachel clicked on a video from her cell phone in front of Amber. “Do you remember this?”

“I believe I’ve shown this to you before. How can you forget about this so soon?”

Rachel dragged Amber by her hair, as if she was holding on to a bag of trash. She then practically shoved the screen of the cell phone right into the latter’s eyes. “Take a good look at it. This is of you and Noah lost in a passionate moment. The media would surely enjoy this very much, I believe?”

“Ah!” Amber’s voice broke and she couldn’t even utter anything as soon as she saw the intimate scene in the video. Instantly, she turned ashen.

“Without my reminder, you seem to have forgotten that I’ve got plenty of hold against you. You’ve gone into a frenzy because you’ve failed in your attempt to marry Justin, right? Well, I have my ways to bring you into disrepute. Let’s see who else in Riverdale would want to marry you after this!”

Amber’s eyes were red-rimmed at that point. Probably due to the pain, or because of the insults she was subjected to, or even out of fear, tears started to stream down her face. “No! It’s all my fault! I’m sorry! I won’t do this again!”

“I don’t wish for last night’s incident to happen again.”

With that, Rachel flung Amber’s hair aside disgustedly and exclaimed coldly, “One more thing—if I find out that you’re planning to go after Charlotte or Samuel again, I won’t spare your life. I’m not afraid to go to jail, so feel free to try me.”
