Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 997:

Jake scoffed at his own foolishness, a wry smile twisting his lips. Still, he knew in his heart that if the situation arose again, he would not hesitate to save Kallie.

Sophie pondered Jake’s words and then shook her head with firmness, her eyes shimmering with a mix of defiance and insight.

“That’s not the case. My mom would never fake ignorance to me and you. If she truly wanted you to leave, she would have told you directly instead of resorting to such tricks. Moreover, she’s my mom. I can spot her lies in an instant. She genuinely doesn’t recognize me. If you leave now, what becomes of her? She needs you. I can’t fathom you’ve genuinely let go of your love for her.”

Jake felt a pang of heartache at Sophie’s pleading and earnest look, his expression mirroring the depth of his turmoil. In days gone by, he would have stayed by Kallie’s side without a second thought. Yet, times had shifted irrevocably. Kallie’s past actions told him she harbored intentions to end his life, and her love for him had evidently evaporated.
