My Mute Bride Chapter 253

Chapter 253 Boxing Show

Rachel incredulously stood on the sidewalk alone with a bouquet of roses in her arms as she stared at the sports car that drove off in haste.

After a short moment, she came to her senses and immediately dialed Jolly’s number. “Hey, Hernandez just came and brought Justin with him.” “What?!”

On the other end of the phone line was Jolly in a spa room. Despite wearing a facial mask, she suddenly jumped to her full height as her intense curiosity was piqued by Rachel’s words. “Is that true?! When did that happen? Why? Did they come to blows with each other?”

“It seems like you’re quite keen for them to come to blows with each other, right? Well, it happened before this.” Rachel briefly shared what happened earlier before she asked worriedly, “Do you think everything’s alright? Where could they have gone to?”

“Are you worried about Justin?”

“Jolly! Is this even the right time to be asking that question?!”

“Look at you; I was just joking anyway. Why are you anxious? I’ll be there shortly since I know where they are.” Jolly instantly removed her face mask and raised her eyebrows at Charlotte, who was by her side. “Charlotte, wake up. Let’s go! I’ll bring you to watch an exciting show.”

There was a pink towel currently wrapped around Charlotte’s head while she lazed on a lounge chair with a relaxed look. Jolly had placed a face mask on Charlotte’s tiny face as well and her only evident features were her eyes, nostrils and mouth.

As soon as Charlotte heard that, she asked with a confused voice, “What show is it?”

Meanwhile, Jolly replied mysteriously, “A boxing show.”

Charlotte maintained her silence. At that moment, the sun had already set and the night sky was brightened by the streetlights.

In one of the private fitness centers situated somewhere in town, there were currently two tall, strapping figures on each side of the boxing ring as they both concurrently entered the ring.

After Hernandez removed his jacket, he glanced at Justin and asked, “Are you injured?”

Meanwhile, Justin had an indifferent look. “Does it matter?”

“I will never take advantage of my opponent during a match, so I’ll use one hand to fight you.” As Hernandez said that, he removed the boxing glove on one hand and moved it behind his back.

“That’s not necessary.” Justin flexed his neck as his expression gradually turned cold. Then, he warned Hernandez, “Put it back on. Otherwise, you might not be able to get out of the boxing ring alive.”

The look of disdain gradually disappeared from Hernandez’s face as soon as he noticed Justin’s professionalism and the fierce look in the man’s eyes. “Have you had training before?” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

However, Justin merely uttered, “Are you afraid?”

“That’s not possible,” Hernandez coldly scoffed.

“Cut to the chase then.”

As soon as the referee blew his whistle, the two of them instantly exchanged blows.

Since it wasn’t an official match, both Justin and Hernandez were not restricted by any rules. However, the tension between the two was quite evident as their punches landed hard on each other. None of

them took the initiative to stop the match and the match would continue until the end unless one party lost.

On the other hand, Rachel waited for a long time before she finally saw Jolly’s car showing up in front of Burton Group.

“Mommy! Get in!” Charlotte’s head popped out from the backseat of the red sports car before she waved at Rachel in excitement.

“Why did you bring Charlotte along? Are you intentionally trying to blow up this incident?”

Meanwhile, the window to the driver’s seat was suddenly wound down as Jolly’s glee was masked by her pair of white-rimmed sunglasses. “I was halfway through a spa session with Charlotte, so I couldn’t possibly leave a kid there by herself!”

In response, Rachel rolled her eyes and replied exasperatedly, “You could have just sent me the address and I would have gone there myself. You wasted my time making me wait for you here.”

“This is sensational, so you can’t be the only one to witness it! Hurry up and get in the car!”

A resigned Rachel entered the car since Jolly was the only one with the address.

As soon as Rachel fastened her seatbelt, Jolly floored the accelerator as her car revved up and joined the other cars on the road.

After half an hour, Jolly stopped the car in front of a boxing gym.

“A boxing gym?” Rachel exclaimed in surprise, “How did you know that they are here?”

“Hernandez is a huge fan of boxing. We met up for lunch two days ago and he mentioned that he’d just joined this club.”

“That doesn’t mean that he would bring Justin here, though.”

“I must say that you’re being too naive here. Males usually prefer such methods to exert their dominance in a fight.” Jolly unfastened her seatbelt and gestured to Rachel by throwing a punch in front of Rachel. Then, she yelled toward the backseat, “Let’s go. Charlotte, it’s time to catch the show.”

The loud noise of punches being thrown was clearly audible in the huge gym.

Inside the boxing ring, Hernandez managed to dodge Justin’s blow from the front, but he couldn’t avoid the next punch in time. As a result, his mind was woozy despite being clad in protective headgear. He’s a professional.

“It’s not too late for you to surrender now.”

“In your dreams!” Hernandez gritted his teeth and readjusted his headgear. “Go on!”

At this moment, Justin threw a punch, but it was successfully dodged by Hernandez.

As Hernandez wasn’t a weak opponent, he immediately responded by making a defensive move. While he tried to defend himself, he tried to concurrently figure out Justin’s weak point. “I will not give up on Chris. She’s the woman I love the most.”

“How many women have heard these words?”

“Not that many.”

“Not that many?” Justin’s anger suddenly mounted.

Meanwhile, Hernandez took his chance and punched Justin in the face.

The blood splashed from Justin’s nostrils. Despite him dodging the blow as fast as he could, he was still badly punched and he stumbled a few steps backward before he landed on the side of the ring.

Hernandez brushed his nose smugly. “Didn’t I warn you not to be distracted?”

At that point, he managed to worsen Justin’s raging anger.

Justin forcefully held onto the side of the ring as he rose to his feet. Then, he went straight for Hernandez.

Hernandez never expected that Justin would be terrifying in his moment of fury. Justin was like a crazed beast as he threw his punches with all of his might. As for Hernandez, he could feel his arms turning numb as he struggled to block the punches while he fought back and retreated.

“Hey!! Calm down! We agreed that this would be a friendly match.”

“It’s too late!” Justin didn’t even bother to continue the conversation with Hernandez. “In the future, stay away from Rachel!”

Just as Hernandez was on the brink of desperation, there was a sudden flash in front of him where he seemed to see the light at the end of a tunnel. “Chris!”

“Bulls*it!” Justin threw another punch at him.

“Umm—” Hernandez clutched at his nose and fell to the ground.

“Hernandez!” Rachel’s voice immediately rang out from behind.

Justin turned around and he immediately saw the trio running toward them.

Meanwhile, she rushed right into the boxing ring. As she assisted Hernandez to his feet, she worriedly asked, “Are you alright?”

He pressed his hand against his nose while responding breathlessly, “Chris, I think I’m about to die.”

Rachel took his hand aside and she was shocked to see the blood spilling out of his nostrils. Soon enough, she regained her senses. “It’s alright. It’s just a normal nosebleed. Lift your head upward and stop moving.”

As soon as she said that, she took some tissues from her bag to wipe off the blood for him.

As for Hernandez, he lay in her arms and moaned in pain, “Chris, I think my nose bridge must be broken. I won’t be able to gain the affections of any other girls anymore. I’m hurt because of you, so you must bear the responsibility!”

“I’ll head to the hospital with you to get it checked out.”

“I don’t need a check-up. You just have to treat me to dinner. I want to have your pierogi.”

Meanwhile, upon seeing Hernandez create all sorts of requests to Rachel without a care in the world, Justin couldn’t help but retort, “Hey! Are you done with your act?!”

Before Hernandez could respond, Rachel was already on her feet as she turned to Justin in annoyance, “What’s wrong with you?! You’ve badly punched him yet you didn’t even apologize?!”
