Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 232:

Bria announced, “But since you seem to prefer kneeling, go ahead and kneel.”

The color drained from Kallie’s face. The spot where she knelt featured neither a soft carpet nor any gentleness, just a cold, hard floor. Supporting her belly had become a necessity. Pregnancy had brought not only joy but also constant back pain, and now her lower body started to ache with a dull, persistent soreness.

Kallie attempted to withstand the discomfort, but a cold sweat began to bead along her spine. Looking up at Bria with eyes brimming with tears, Kallie silently pleaded for some compassion.
