Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 805:

Clayton hadn’t been invited yet, though it was only a matter of time before he would be.

When informed about the event, Clayton offered his support. “If you’re up for it, I’ll be there with you. Don’t worry. I’ll handle everything.”

Kallie gave a small smile and gently refused. “That won’t be necessary. Even though I agreed to put on an act at Cody’s birthday banquet with you, that doesn’t make you my date for every party. I prefer to avoid misunderstandings.”

Kallie glanced at her children, joyfully playing in the garden, and nodded her agreement. “Thanks. I appreciate that.”
