Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 108:

“Am I truly that frightening?” Jake asked.

Edgar offered no reply but merely laughed with a hint of awkwardness.

After a brief pause, Edgar suggested, “Mr. Reeves, I saw your wife with a prescription. Perhaps she’s unwell. Maybe I should inquire about her health? Or perhaps I should just keep an eye on her for now?”

Jake’s expression hardened as he pieced something together and dismissed the idea with a scoff, “Her business is her own. If she feels like sharing, she will. Otherwise, she can find someone else to confide in.”

Respecting Jake’s stance, Edgar chose to remain silent.

Just then, a doctor passed by, muttering to himself, “It’s troubling, really. Pregnant and yet in such a condition. I advised her to stay at the hospital, but fear drove her away instantly. She doesn’t appear to be struggling financially, so what could she be thinking?”

The doctor’s words trailed off into the distance.

Jake suddenly halted, overhearing something like “pregnant,” and turned his gaze toward the doctor, his expression inscrutable.

He was about to catch up with the doctor when a nurse interrupted urgently. “Mr. Reeves, Miss Miller just fainted, and it seems serious. Please come and check on her quickly.”

Jake didn’t hesitate for a moment. He quickened his pace and dashed over, pushing everything else aside.

Kallie had believed the ordeal with the Millers at the hospital was over and that tranquility would soon return.

Little did she know, it was merely the start.
