Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 122:

The line remained silent, and Kallie assumed Jake had nothing left to say.

Kallie drew in a deep breath, trying to suppress the bitterness and resentment that surged up her throat. If this was the reality of their relationship, she had no reason to expect anything from Jake anymore.

With a final click, Kallie ended the call.

Determined not to succumb to despair, Kallie focused on finding a solution. Despite not being responsible for the torn clothes, she racked her brain for a way to fix them. She had made a promise to Rachel, and she was committed to honoring it. A promise was a promise, after all.

“Support?” Jake’s response was laced with sarcasm as he crossed his legs. His smile grew more mocking, his gaze turning icy and sharp. “And what, exactly, do you propose I do to ‘support’ her?”

Willard and Amara shared a look of tentative hope.

Amara cleared her throat, preparing to speak, “Actually, this is all just a big misunderstanding. Kallie might feel wronged, but that doesn’t justify her humiliating Sarah in front of everyone. How about Kallie visits the hospital, offers her apologies to Sarah, and we put this entire ordeal behind us? What do you think?”
