Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 151: Kallie finally caught a decent night's sleep, the first in ages. Waking up in the cozy room, Kallie felt her baby moving inside her. It all felt like she was dreaming.

She wanted to find Irene, but as soon as she got up, she overheard a conversation outside.

It was Irene on the phone. "Mr. Hayes, no need to worry, Kallie's safe. Has Jake done anything? He seems relentless, having tracked her down this fast. Okay, I won't tell her. I doubt Jake will go too far!" Irene hung up and turned to see Kallie, pale and standing in the doorway.

Irene's heart skipped a beat. She quickly hid her phone and forced a smile. "You're up. How are you feeling?" Kallie shook her head, pointing at Irene's phone, showing she'd heard everything.

She gestured urgently, asking if Jake knew she had run away and was with Brent. She was eager to know if she had caused them trouble and what Jake had done.

Seeing Kallie's anxiety, Irene rushed to calm her down. "Hey, calm down. Look, it's true Jake knows you left, but the situation is not as bad as you think. He's just talking to Mr. Hayes right now and hasn't made any moves. Mr. Hayes has gathered solid evidence of how the Reeves family treated you, including the forced abortion attempt. With all this dirt, even if Jake refuses a divorce, you can still take it to court. If he tries anything crazy, public opinion will rip him apart." Fresh updates available at galKallie felt touched by their efforts, but a pang of sadness hit her. She genuinely never wanted things to go this south with Jake. Their marriage had been a screw-up from day one, and she felt she'd kept Jake from Sarah all these years. If he hated her now, she couldn't blhim.

Kallie hesitated and then suggested that when push cto shove, she'd like to talk to Jake before taking it to court.

Irene was exasperated. "After all the mess he's put you through, you still have hope for him?" Kallie shook her head, pointing at her belly. She indicated she didn't want the baby to grow up aware of these conflicts, knowing its parents didn't love each other. That would be too sad for the child.

Irene's lips quivered as she gazed at Kallie with pity and sympathy.

Elsewhere, Jake threw his phone aside in anger. His handsface was icy, radiating fury.

Edgar, observing nearby, knew things were far from resolved. "Mr. Reeves, it seems the Hayes family has overstepped their bounds, but they probably respected Kallie's wishes. Maybe you should talk to her and understand why she left." Jake rubbed his forehead, trying to calm down. He paced to the window and lit a cigarette.

Jake leaned against the table, veins on his forearm bulging, showing his anger. "If she doesn't want to return, why should I bother asking why she left? I care about her, but she doesn't see it." Jake sighed heavily and chuckled bitterly. "Did you see the Hayes family? They treatedlike I did something awful. Kallie hates me. Funny, isn't it?" Edgar sighed inwardly.

Jake continued, "No point talking to the Hayes family for her. Whatever she wants to do, it's her business. She can go wherever." Just then, there was an urgent knock on the door.

Jake glanced at Edgar.

Edgar got the hint and opened the door.

Kallie's primary doctor stood outside.

The primary doctor spoke cautiously, "Is Mr. Reeves here? I need to speak with him. It's important." Edgar flashed a polite but practiced smile. "I apologize, but Mr. Reeves isn't feeling up to it at the moment. He doesn't want to discuss anything about his wife. Please cback another day to schedule an appointment.” The primary doctor shook his head urgently. "This is urgent. Please relay this message to Mr. Reeves." Edgar didn't reply. Instead, he signaled to the bodyguards stationed outside the door.

The bodyguards got the message right away. They flanked the primary doctor, giving him intimidating looks. The message was clear. It was evident that if the primary doctor didn't depart promptly, they would forcibly escort him out.

The primary doctor grew anxious and shouted to Jake inside, "Mr. Reeves, I must inform you, your wife is pregnant!" Edgar's expression faded slowly, turning serious. "What did you say? Do you understand the consequences if you're not telling the truth to Mr. Reeves?" The primary doctor trembled. "I understand, of course. I tried to speak to Mr. Reeves days ago when I found out about this. However, he was unavailable then. Now, after careful consideration, I realized it was essential to tell him right away." The primary doctor added firmly, "If I lie about Mrs. Reeves being pregnant, Mr. Reeves can holdaccountable." Just then, Jake's voice called from inside the room. "Edgar, let him in."

Edgar's expression beccomplex as he gestured for the primary doctor to enter Kallie was pregnant? That should be good news. Yet, Edgar felt uneasy, though he couldn't pinpoint why.

Jake sat on a chair, staring coldly at the primary doctor. "Is she really pregnant?"

The primary doctor nodded. "Yes, definitely. If you bring her back, can confirm it you I've been in this field for years.

I've been at another hospital.

There's no way I made a mistake on this." Jake was shocked by the primary doctor's certainty.

"How is her condition?" Jake asked.

The primary doctor hesitated, glancing at Jake.

Under Jake's intense gaze, the primary doctor said slowly, "This is what I needed to discuss. Your wife over a a is slightly over a month pregnant, delicate phase. Mr. Reeves, it's vital to bring her back, especially in the first trimester. Any issues now could cause serious problems. Most importantly, her body isn't suitable for pregnancy, likely due to a previous abortion. We need to be very careful.” The sound of glass shattering on the floor was Jake's response.

Jake's face darkened as he swept everything off the table. Sitems crashed against the wall, creating a loud noise.
