Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 412:

Joanna’s eyes flickered with a moment of doubt before hardening with renewed rage. “Don’t act like you’re better than me, Kallie! If you’re so powerful, end me now! Kill me! Because if you don’t, I swear I’ll make your life a living hell. You should have died abroad! Why did you even come back? You’re vile, and your daughter is just as repulsive.”

Kallie’s expression hardened, her gaze turning icy as she stared down at Joanna. “In that case, I really shouldn’t have shown you any mercy,” she said, her voice cold and sharp. “Joanna, do you honestly believe this is all I can do?”

Joanna, still on the floor, sneered with defiance. “If you think you’re so powerful, then prove it! I’ve already lost Ethan; I’ve got nothing left to lose.”

Kallie offered a faint, knowing smile, choosing not to dignify Joanna’s challenge with a response. She simply turned and left the room.

In the adjoining room, a group of reporters stood nervously, their cameras clutched tightly. These were the very people Joanna had hired to smear Kallie’s reputation.

Kallie gestured for one of them to approach. The reporter stepped forward eagerly, his smile ingratiating. “Ms. Nixon, rest assured, I’ll handle everything as you’ve asked.”
