Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 107:

As Jake left Sarah’s hospital room, Edgar hurried to catch up.

Jake shot Edgar a chilling look. “Do you have a better solution?”

At a loss for words, Edgar fell silent.

The situation was deteriorating daily. Although the Millers weren’t powerful enough to pose a real threat to Jake, their relentless agitation was becoming problematic.

“If there were other ways to solve it, Kallie shot them down. She’s hell-bent on defending Ethan. She’s chosen her path,” Jake muttered, more to himself than to Edgar.

Edgar opened his mouth to respond but reconsidered, casting a final glance at Jake’s retreating figure before falling silent.
