Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1108:

Sophie quickly said, “Mom, you should go with my dad. Calvin and I are grown up now. We can manage on our own. Besides, I have a competition coming up soon and won’t be around, and Calvin also has his own contest to focus on. It makes sense for you to go with Elma.”

Sophie’s words tumbled out hurriedly, almost without a pause. Saying this, Sophie glanced anxiously at Kallie and Jake, catching her breath. She had accidentally overheard their conversation while walking by. Sophie hadn’t planned to listen in, but hearing her mom’s crying made her worried, and she jumped to the conclusion that they were having an argument. As she lingered, she heard Jake convincing Kallie to stay. Their concern for her and Calvin touched her heart deeply.

But it suddenly dawned on Sophie that if Jake went with Elma, Lacey would likely tag along. Who knew what Lacey was planning? She might seize the opportunity to do something with Kallie absent.

While Sophie was confident Jake had no interest in someone like Lacey, her parents had only just mended their relationship. She felt it was important to prevent anything that might disrupt that.

After a moment’s hesitation, Sophie decided to open the door and enter, bracing for their displeasure.

To Sophie’s relief, Kallie only offered a resigned smile.
