Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 779:

Jake’s silence only made Lacey more suspicious. She assumed there might be some conflict between Jake and Kallie. Why else would Kallie leave the country so suddenly after hearing the fake news of Jake’s death? And why hadn’t Kallie even held a funeral for him?

Lacey was itching to give Jake a heads-up, but she hesitated. It felt wrong to interfere in his personal life. All she could do was drop subtle hints and hope he caught on.

But Jake wasn’t picking up on it. “I can’t find her just yet,” Jake explained. “I’ve got some unfinished business to take care of first. Once that’s settled, I’ll go to her.”

The thought of Kallie and their three kids softened Jake’s expression. Jake was usually a closed book when it came to his feelings, but he didn’t even try to hide how much he loved and missed Kallie. “I miss her like hell. She’s the only thing that’s kept me going these past few days.”

Jake had been doing some digging and uncovered some disturbing information. He discovered that several members of the Morgan family were currently working within the Reeves Group. Jake suspected Clayton had probably convinced Kallie that he was looking after the Reeves Group for her while she was away.

But in reality, Clayton was keeping tabs on Jake. If Jake showed up in Burmoos, Clayton would know instantly. That would make it nearly impossible for Jake to get close to Kallie.
