Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 713:

Cara wanted to make things difficult for Kallie, but Jake couldn’t tolerate Cara’s antics anymore. He had an idea of how to get rid of her, but first, he needed to regain control of the situation. “Enough, Cara,” Jake said firmly. His voice softened slightly. “Can you stop this? You trapped me in that elevator all night to get to her, and I haven’t even said a word about it.”

Cara’s eyes darted around. “I wasn’t behind the elevator mishap,” she lied.

Jake saw right through her. “Then how did you find out about the elevator mishap so quickly? And that I was stuck in it? You came here because you knew I was at the hospital, didn’t you?” Cara was speechless, caught in her own lie.

Jake sighed and gently took her hand. “I’m tired of fighting with you, Cara,” he said wearily. “Let’s just let the past be the past. I want to focus on the present. Just let it go. Let’s forget about last night, okay?”

Cara’s heart fluttered with hope. Although it seemed like Jake was defending Kallie, that was beside the point. Jake had just hinted at moving on and having a future together, marking the first time he had made such a declaration. Could this be the turning point she had been waiting for? Overcome with emotion, Cara squeezed his hand, a surge of optimism coursing through her.
