Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1100:

As Kallie’s comforting whispers filled the room, Elma’s fingers quivered faintly in response.

This subtle movement didn’t escape Kallie’s vigilant eyes. She then noticed a chilling blueness overtaking Elma’s fingertips, the skin there shaded a disturbing dark blue right under the nails—a sight only perceptible upon close examination.

What had first been dismissed as a routine health issue now ominously suggested poisoning.

Kallie frowned. Strangely enough, their doctor, Lacey, had never hinted at such a dire possibility. Could such symptoms really have emerged just now?

Doubt clouded Kallie’s thoughts. It was hard to believe that Lacey, as attentive as she was reputed to be, could overlook such critical symptoms in Elma’s condition.

Kallie harbored suspicions, her instincts prickling uneasily. Stealthily, she withdrew her phone and snapped a quick photo of Elma’s hand. With the utmost care, she positioned Elma’s hand back exactly as it had been, as if untouched. She intended to use this as a test for Lacey, to discern whether Lacey genuinely aimed to heal Elma. If Lacey remained silent about the incident to either Kallie or Jake in the days to follow, it would signal something was amiss.
