Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 976

Chapter 976:

“I didn’t trust her medication. I asked a doctor to check it. She got angry and smashed it before we could examine the medicine.”

Lacey remained composed as she explained, “That’s true, and I know I shouldn’t have destroyed the medicine. However, you provoked me first. As a doctor, why would I ever harm my patient?
