Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1312:

Jake studied Florrie carefully, sensing something off. Was she trying to set him up with Kallie? Why? Could it have been Gracelyn’s orders? His mind raced with possibilities, and he suddenly asked, “So, what do you think I should do to mend my relationship with Miss Nixon?”

Florrie’s eyes sparkled with delight at his willingness to play along. She led him to the balcony.
