Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 94:

“What is it? Just tell me! You don’t have to be so formal with me!” Linsey urged.

Kallie shared with Linsey that Donovan had invited her to lecture at the university. She then explained her knowledge of Linsey’s brother having graduated from Eastonville University and wondered if he had heard anything about the event.

Due to her inability to speak, Kallie expressed her concern that something might occur during her visit and engagement in the discussion.

Before Kallie could fully explain her concerns, Linsey grasped her worries and took her hand reassuringly.

“Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. There’s no need to be anxious. I’m familiar with Eastonville University’s anniversary. I can attend it with my brother,” Linsey promised, instilling a sense of calm in Kallie.

For some reason, Kallie had always felt a wave of anxiety about this event, fearing that something might go wrong.

Unfortunately, Kallie’s fears seemed justified when the next morning brought unexpected news.

Waking up earlier than her alarm, Kallie checked her phone while still in bed. As she scrolled through the news, she saw her name.

An attention-seeking blogger had published the guest list for Eastonville University’s anniversary event, singling out Kallie’s name and highlighting her inability to speak.

The caption blared, “Inviting a mute to give a presentation, has Eastonville University lost its senses?”

Although Kallie had braced herself for criticism, the swiftness and severity of the harsh words took her by surprise.
