Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1070:

Leo realized that Kallie really did mean something to Jake. This was Jake’s private space, after all. Not even the household staff could come in whenever Jake was around. Jake usually only called people when he needed something. But Kallie had spent the whole morning here with Jake, even falling asleep, and Jake didn’t seem to mind. In fact, he had even asked for a blanket for her. He wasn’t exactly being lovey-dovey, but it was clear he cared.

Leo kept his thoughts to himself. He knew better than to say anything about Jake and Kallie’s relationship. He could lose his job if he stuck his nose where it didn’t belong.

Leo’s mind was racing, but he kept a straight face and nodded.

“Understood, Mr. Reeves,” he said.

Leo got a blanket and was about to put it on Kallie when he felt Jake’s eyes on him.

Leo froze. He knew what Jake was thinking. He carefully draped the blanket over Kallie without actually touching her.

Kallie stirred a little but was too sleepy to wake up. She mumbled something and then fell back asleep.
