Chapter 64 Making a Wedding Dress for Others The next day.

“Madam! Madam, come upstairs and take a look!”

The inside of the room was dim and the curtains were drawn tight.

Rachel was woken up by the shouts outside the room. With a bang, the door of the room opened from outside. She cowered in fear before the pain on her feet forced her to open her eyes.

Sue stood at the door and with just a glance, she saw Rachel with her bare shoulders and the room was messy. She immediately became upset and scolded, “What the hell is going on?”

The room still smelled of lovemaking while the floor was scattered with women’s intimate clothing. On top of that, there was blood on the sheets mixed with unknown stains too. It was not difficult to imagine what had happened in this room last night.

However, Rachel was bewildered. What happened last night? The soreness all over her body was reminding her of last night’s memory. She was deep asleep when Justin suddenly barged in and tore her clothes. No matter how much she had struggled, he pounced and wrestled with her like a wild animal. As she shuddered violently, she did not dare to believe the scene before her.

“Madam, Miss Amber is still in Young Master Justin’s room.” Mrs. Duncan’s voice came from behind Sue.

Sue glared at Rachel. “Hurry up and wear your clothes! Are you planning to show your body for the whole family to see? What a shameless thing!” With these words, Sue and Mrs. Duncan left in a hurry.

Rachel’s mind went blank as her ears buzzed.

On the other hand, Amber woke up alone from Justin’s bed in the master bedroom. She was unclothed while the large room was empty, save for herself.

“Amber.” Sue hurriedly entered.

“Madam Parham!” As soon as Amber saw Sue, she immediately jumped into Sue”s arms and cried.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“I don’t know, Madam Parham. Why am I here? Isn’t this Justin’s room? My clothes… Me and Justin…”

Amber burst into tears.

Sue looked around the messy bed before she revealed a puzzled look. “Amber, don’t cry first. What happened last night?”

“I don’t know; I don’t remember anything!” Amber’s eyes were red and tears were falling from them. “If my father knows about it, he will kill me!”

Was Amber trying to blackmail the Burton Family? As she was a sly old fox herself, Sue looked slightly contemptuous as she glanced at Mrs. Duncan.

Mrs. Duncan immediately understood and added, “Miss Amber, don’t cry first. Young Master Justin went out early in the morning and he seemed to be sleeping in Mrs. Burton’s room last night.”

At these words, Amber’s tears stopped abruptly and she looked at Mrs. Duncan incredulously.

Sue comforted Amber by patting her shoulder. “It’s okay, Amber; if you can’t remember it, you can slowly think about it. Go and wash up first while I’ll have someone send you a set of clean clothes.”

After saying this, Sue waved her hand and brought Mrs. Duncan away with her.

As soon as the door closed, Sue’s expression sank. “Useless fellow. She literally allowed the chance to slip away herself.”

Mrs. Duncan asked, “Then, about what happened last night…”

“We won’t bother with it. Let her figure it out herself.” A furious Sue coldly added, “That mute ended up benefiting from it!”

Inside the room, Amber’s face was gloomy. Did Justin actually sleep in Rachel’s room last night?

It was noon at the headquarters of Burton Group when Justin ended his call in exasperation after he noted the number of missed calls on his phone. After a while, Frankie came in a hurry. “President Burton, Miss Amber called again. She said she wants to see you.”

“Tell her that I’m not available.”

“Yes, sir.” Frankie nodded.

Justin had an ugly expression earlier this morning.

“Were there any other calls besides hers?”

Frankie was taken aback. “No.”

Justin’s eyebrows instantly knotted together before he threw the phone onto the table in impatience.

It was out of necessity when he used that woman to vent his desire. Last night, he wasn’t drunk at all, but he wanted to see what kind of tricks Amber had up her sleeves. However, he didn’t expect her to be so bold as to dare to drug him. However, when he woke up early in the morning and saw Rachel’s tear-

stained face beside him, he suddenly felt indescribable guilt in his heart and hurriedly fled.

“Mr. Burton, if you have no other orders, I’ll take my leave first.” Frankie’s voice pulled back Justin’s thoughts.

Justin frowned and answered, “Wait. Go and find a geomancy master who can read my fortune to come to my office.”

“Huh?” Frankie froze for a moment, looking incredulous. A geomancy master who can tell one’s fortune? “President Burton, what do you want to do? I thought you didn’t believe in that.”

“Just do as you’re told.”

Frankie nodded. “Yes, I’m going.”

Justin acted in an extremely irritated manner today and several heads of departments were scolded early in the morning. Thus, it was better to talk less and just focus on work.

…

It had rained all afternoon in Riverdale and the drizzle only stopped in the evening. Mrs. Duncan knocked on the door with dinner again with a shifty look. “Mrs. Burton, dinner is ready.”

Just put it on the table, thanks.

“I don’t care when you eat the food, but I have to watch you take this medicine.”

Medicine?

Since Rachel was taken aback, she looked up and saw the box of medicine in Mrs. Duncan’s hands.

Then, she noticed the label ‘morning after pills’ on it. She felt a stabbing pain in her heart for no reason, which caused her face to pale at once. If Justin didn’t want her to get pregnant, why did he treat her that way last night?

She remembered all that happened last night. In fact, compared to their wedding night, he even gave her the illusion of being gentle last night. However, at this moment, the pills told her that it was really just a mirage.

As Mrs. Duncan thought that Rachel was unwilling to take the pills, she said, “Mrs. Burton, this is not me giving you a hard time, so don’t make it difficult for me.”

Give it to me. Rachel stretched her hand out.

After she watched Rachel finishing her medicine, Mrs. Duncan was relieved and added contemptuously, “Remember to eat your food.”

Rachel did not respond as she held the cup with a gloomy face. Perhaps the pills had dissolved too quickly as she felt a burst of bitterness in her throat.

Then, the phone on the table lit up for a moment before a text message from Hans popped out. ‘How is it going? You’re discharged from the hospital and returned to the Burton Family, right?’

Rachel collected her thoughts and quickly replied with two words. ‘I’m fine.’

Then, Hans asked, ‘Grandma’s side has been arranged for. How much luggage do you have? Do you need my help?’

‘Not much; I have nothing to take with me.’

Rachel glanced at the canvas bag hanging by the door. Only her mother’s belongings and her bank card were in the bag and she needed to leave Riverdale with as little as possible, so she didn’t plan to take anything else with her to avoid alerting others to her plan.

‘Okay, when you’re ready to go, let me know.’

As she typed on the phone, the door opened from behind her. When she looked up, she met the gaze from a pair of narrow and cold eyes and her hands trembled. With a plop, the phone fell with a loud sound in the quiet room.

A frowning Justin looked at the floor and asked, “What are you doing?”
