Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1248:

Florrie and Calvert, both approaching their fifties, appeared to be on friendly terms. However, their occasional exchanges of looks suggested there was something more between them, making Kallie believe that their relationship was not as simple as it seemed.

Following Gracelyn’s orders, Florrie gave Calvert a pat on the shoulder and then left the room.
