Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1012:

From the edge of his vision, the owner noticed Kallie wearing Jake’s coat, and the realization hit him like a thunderbolt. Regret was useless now. He had mistaken her for a mere lover of someone else, never expecting she was connected to Jake. But wasn’t Jake known to be unattached? Could the woman be Kallie herself? That seemed unlikely. Why would Kallie venture into such a modest place only to be harassed by these men? The owner couldn’t afford to ponder these riddles any longer. He shuffled toward Kallie, bowing deeply as he said, “Miss, I was foolish for offending you. I’m deeply sorry for my grievous error. Thankfully, you’ve come to no harm. You’re free to punish or rebuke me. Just please, spare my life.”

Kallie, swathed in Jake’s coat, was visibly shaken. She stared down at the weeping owner before her with nothing but revulsion and fury in her eyes. Given their conduct today, it was evident these men were no strangers to wrongdoing. Countless innocent women were likely victimized by them. Such men were nothing but a cancer on society. Yet, Jake had mentioned earlier that he owned the establishment. If she decided to report this to the police and they ended up closing the establishment, wouldn’t that have repercussions for Jake as well?

Kallie disregarded the weeping owner nearby and made her way toward Jake.

“Sir, I owe you my thanks for your timely assistance today. Despite being personally involved, I’m willing to overlook this incident because of your intervention.” Jake stared back at her, his face a picture of astonishment.

“Kallie, are you sure about what you’re suggesting?”
