Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 410:

“Obviously, I won’t sink to your level,” Kallie retorted, her voice dripping with icy sarcasm as she looked down at Joanna. “What you did was disgraceful, and I refuse to become as shameless as you.”

Joanna bit her lower lip, her humiliation clear, but she stubbornly tried to defend herself. “The man I found for you is powerful. I was just trying to keep you away from my husband. You have a daughter to think about, and your life isn’t easy. Even if you marry someone else, he’ll probably resent you. I was doing you a favor. You should be grateful.

Kallie knew the best way to get justice wasn’t through words but by taking away what Joanna valued most. The door behind Joanna creaked open, and Ethan stepped into the room. He had been standing there all along, his eyes red and his hands trembling with emotion.

Joanna felt a chill as she sensed his presence. Kallie gave a subtle nod, and the bodyguards released their hold on Joanna. Joanna turned around quickly, and the sight of Ethan standing there was like a crushing blow.
