Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 262:

The doctor placed a comforting hand on Dean’s shoulder. “Your mother’s condition is stable for now, but we’re not sure whether she could make it. If there’s anything you need to tell her, now is the time to do so. Her body sustained severe injuries in the car accident, and I’m afraid she could pass away at any moment.”

Immediately after the doctor finished talking, someone broke into tears, sobbing uncontrollably.

It was none other than Melinda.

Dean’s face mirrored Melinda’s seeming sorrow, his distress evident in every line of his expression.

The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on everyone, except Jake.

Noticing the suspicious gazes from those around Jake, Edgar leaned toward Jake and whispered, “Perhaps you should show some sorrow, Mr. Reeves?”

Jake’s lips curled into a dismissive sneer as he whispered back, “Why should I feign grief? These guys have decided to seal my mom’s end precisely on this day, no matter her condition. Do you doubt this?”

Edgar bowed his head, knowing Jake was right.
