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.

Without solid proof of Kallie’s innocence, allowing the Miller family’s resentment to simmer could lead to unpredictable outcomes.

Reaching the end of the hallway, Jake stopped to light a cigarette. The tip glowed as he took a drag, his expression growing even more distant and frosty.

“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.
