Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1102:

Kallie’s heart ached as she looked at Elma. She was indeed angry—angry that Elma had been so careless and reckless. But Elma was just a child. If Elma hadn’t been sick, she would have been running around and playing like any other child her age.

But Elma couldn’t even go to school. She had to take awful-tasting medicine every day, and she couldn’t run, jump, or do any of the things other kids her age did. She had just been trying to have some fun, and she hadn’t seen the accident coming.

Kallie suddenly felt a pang of unease. She shouldn’t be angry with Elma at all. She decided to talk to Elma about it later, when Elma was feeling better.

At Kallie’s silence, Elma’s eyes filled with tears, and her eyelashes fluttered as tears streamed down her cheeks.

“Mommy,” she whimpered, tugging at Kallie’s sleeve.

“You can yell at me or even spank me, but please don’t be mad at me or ignore me. I won’t do it again, I promise.”

Kallie’s heart melted. She pulled Elma into a tight hug, gently patting her back to soothe her.

“It’s okay, honey. I’m not mad at you,” she whispered.
