Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1276:

The butler’s face grew uneasy, a shadow of hesitation crossing his features. He opened his mouth as if to speak but quickly closed it again. Jake frowned slightly, confused by the butler’s expression, but he chose not to linger on it. Instead, he strode past the butler into the house, his voice echoing in the spacious halls as he called out, “Kallie!”

The house remained eerily silent. His voice hung in the air, unanswered.

Jake, his patience wearing thin, gestured toward the butler.

“Give me a phone. I need to contact Kallie now.”

The butler hesitated, his expression tightening with worry. Finally, he stepped closer, his voice trembling.

“Mr. Reeves, please don’t rush to contact Mrs. Reeves. You’ve been through enough already. Let the doctor examine you first. Rest for a while, please.”

The butler wasn’t intentionally withholding information, but fear held him back. Jake’s miraculous survival after falling from such a height seemed almost impossible, and the butler was convinced Jake must have hidden injuries. If he revealed the truth now, Jake might push himself too far.

The butler resolved to break the news gently.
