Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 22

Chapter 22:

“Release her now!” Jake’s shout echoed as Kallie crumpled to the floor.

Jake hurried over, catching Kallie before she hit the ground and cradling her in his arms.

“Save her!” Jake barked at Steven.

Without hesitation, Steven wheeled a stretcher over, carefully lifting Kallie onto it. “Her pulse and breathing are rapid. She’s just passed out from stress, nothing life-threatening,” he announced after the assessment.

The surrounding crowd seemed to freeze, no one stepping forward to intervene, not even the police who had been detaining Kallie moments before. All eyes were fixed on Kallie.

On the edge of the crowd, Sarah watched, her jaw clenched, as Jake unexpectedly swept Kallie into his arms, thwarting Kallie’s imminent arrest. Anger sparked in her eyes. She muttered under her breath, “This bitch is quite the actress! What timing to faint, and now she dodges the police station.”

Sarah’s voice, though soft, carried to the nearby onlookers. Linsey, already seething, lost her temper and struck Sarah across the cheek. “What did you just say? Say that again, I dare you!”

“You… You hit me!” Sarah exclaimed.

Despite being bullied, Sarah had never retaliated in front of Jake. She covered her face, stepping back in shock, tears welling in her eyes.

Jake, however, was entirely focused on Kallie, oblivious to the altercation.
