Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1064:

“You know I’m right. Jake won’t tolerate someone trying to manipulate his family, no matter how cunning you think you are. You wanted Sophie to suffer, to feel humiliated—but in the end, Jake will stand by her. So go ahead and test my words if you dare.”

Lacey’s glare shifted to Sophie, her expression dark with frustration. Kallie’s calm dissection of her motives left no room for retort. She had indeed hoped to see Sophie suffer, but now it was clear that Jake’s loyalty to his daughter far outweighed any schemes Lacey had in mind.

Scolded and humiliated, Lacey’s anger was satisfied. But Kallie’s words rang true—Jake’s loyalty to his daughter would trump any resentment, making Lacey’s plan futile. Once Jake’s temper cooled, he’d begin piecing things together. He wasn’t a fool, and Lacey’s schemes, while calculated, would only serve to raise his suspicions.

Lacey bitterly acknowledged that without allies to bolster her claims, her plan was crumbling. The Reeves household operated like a fortress—loyalty ran deep, and Jake’s authority was absolute. Even though she had managed to bribe a few servants, their influence would be minimal. No one would risk speaking against Jake’s daughter. Realizing her isolation, her expression darkened with frustration.

Kallie observed Lacey with quiet satisfaction, knowing her words had struck a nerve.
