Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 1000:

Sophie’s mind raced. It appeared to be part of a sinister plan Clayton had concocted. His goal was clear: hypnotize Kallie to make her irresistibly fall for him, ensuring she would stay by his side forever. Simultaneously, he aimed to eliminate Sophie, effectively burying the truth forever.

Had Sophie not been alert at that critical moment, Clayton’s sinister plan could have played out successfully.

Mulling over these thoughts, Sophie decided to seek out Leo.

“ Leo, could I possibly trouble you for a favor?” Sophie asked tentatively, her voice tinged with hope.

Leo responded with a warm yet formal tone, “ Of course, Sophie. You’re Mr. Reeves’ daughter, and assisting you is not just a pleasure but also my obligation. What do you need?”

Biting her lip in hesitation, Sophie said, “ Could you possibly take us back to Burmoos today? It’s crucial, but please, Leo, you mustn’t let my dad find out.”noveldrama

Leo’s eyebrows shot up in astonishment, his gaze fixed on Sophie as he wrestled with her request.

“I can take you back to Burmoos,” he said slowly.

“However, considering your mother’s fragile health, it might be wiser for her to remain under medical care. Also, Mr. Reeves made it explicitly clear that he must be informed about all your movements and encounters. He’s not trying to monitor you. He just wants to ensure your safety.”

Sophie, having prepared for resistance, didn’t falter. Her eyes sparkled with a mix of determination and persuasion as she pressed on.

“Leo, I know it’s a lot to ask, but I need you to trust me. I’ll shoulder any consequences. If my dad questions you, just say that I insisted, and I left you no choice.”

Leo’s stance hardened, his expression turning grave.

“Sophie, Mr. Reeves entrusted your wellbeing to me, and I take that responsibility seriously. I cannot, in good conscience, comply with your request. It’s too risky.”

Sophie was somewhat frustrated. She had never met anyone as stubborn as Leo.

“But it was a good thing, though. I wouldn’t need to worry if he was trying to pull something off,” she thought inwardly.

Sophie racked her brain and quickly devised a plan.

“Leo, I know how long you’ve been working for my dad, but I bet you can see that he and my mom still love each other. They’re just going through a rough patch. If you really want him to be happy, you have to help me out this once. I simply want them to get back together. I can’t tolerate seeing misunderstandings stand between them like this.”

Leo looked thoughtful, clearly considering her words. A flicker of hesitation flashed across his face.

Sophie pressed on.

“Leo, I’m serious. We need to do this now before it’s too late. Trust me, I’m Jake’s daughter. I would never do anything to hurt him.”
