Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 259:

As time went on without being affected by the drug, Jake slowly reclaimed some of the concealed memories.

Sometimes, Jake wondered whether things might have been different if he hadn’t fainted and lost his memory at that time. That way, Kallie and he might still be together. He could have had a simple, happy life with her and their child. Being a good father and a caring husband had always been his dream.

But Jake knew all too well that numerous dangers would have come Kallie’s way if he hadn’t fainted and become oblivious to the fact that the baby she was carrying was his. His misconception of the father of Kallie’s baby blissfully fooled his enemies.

At that time, with his enemies lurking in the dark, he couldn’t even take care of himself, much less look after Kallie.

Though Jake desired for Kallie to stick by his side since she was his loved one, he knew he couldn’t and shouldn’t put her in harm’s way. Being the head of the Reeves family, he shouldered the responsibility to address the grievances caused by the previous generation, even if it meant being unfairly targeted and set up.

With Kallie’s interest in mind, Jake took a deep breath to steady himself, trying to calm his inner turmoil down.

At this point, Kallie stepped forward and held Jake’s hand.

Jake’s heart pounded in his chest, his meticulously constructed facade threatening to crumble. But he plastered on a mask of indifference, his insides churning.

Kallie, however, appeared unfazed by his seemingly aloof reaction. She guided his hand on her belly.
