Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 95:

Images of Jake’s suave and striking appearance danced through Kallie’s thoughts, igniting a warmth in her heart. A gentle smile began to play on her lips.

Turning to Donovan, Kallie reassured him that she had braced herself for the doubts and criticism, stressing that she was not affected. She pointed out that those groundless accusations had been dealt with, rendering any worries unnecessary.

After bidding Donovan farewell, Kallie felt restless. She approached Gregory, explaining she had to run an errand this afternoon.

Gregory arched an eyebrow, cutting to the chase. “You’re going to see your husband, aren’t you? Why the hesitation? You’re a couple. Such things should be normal.”

Although it was her first attempt and lacked polish, Kallie believed it was a heartfelt token of appreciation.

Given the events of her previous visit, nobody dared to bother her this time.
