Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 777:

Rola figured she might as well let them savor their temporary triumph. Once she reunited with her father and sister, these people would face consequences. With her hands tightly clenched, Rola’s voice softened as she murmured, “I’m sorry.”

Sophie acknowledged this with a nod. “Understood. You’re free to leave now.”

Tears clung to Rola’s cheeks as she stormed away, acting as though she were the victim in all this.

With the issue seemingly settled, Kallie and Sophie beckoned the timid girl they had seen earlier. Considering the day’s events, there was a chance Rola might attempt to sway the girl’s sponsors. The uncertainty of Rola’s next move lingered in the air. Kallie and Sophie watched the girl play the piano, captivated by her skill.

Sophie complimented the girl genuinely. “Your talent is truly remarkable.”

Seizing the moment, Kallie took the initiative to speak up first. “Would you consider accepting our sponsorship? We’ll take care of your tuition and piano expenses from here on out. However, if it’s not what you want, we understand and won’t pressure you.”

The memory of Kallie and Sophie standing up for her against the bullies stayed fresh in the girl’s mind. Her cheeks glowed with warmth at that instant. She nervously fiddled with her skirt, questioning softly, “Is this really fine? Wouldn’t it be inconvenient for you? Honestly, just being here is incredible. My family’s economic circumstances don’t really support an art career. Back home, I’ll devote myself to my studies. Once I’m working, I can afford piano lessons.”

The girl’s maturity touched Kallie, who responded with a gentle look. “Even so, since you have talent, you should seize the opportunity. Waiting until you’re financially stable might be too late to start learning the piano.” Kallie had always been proactive about encouraging her own children to explore their interests early on. She had the resources to give her children a fulfilling life and wanted to ensure they lived without regrets.

Sophie caught on to the girl’s contemplations and comforted her. “Supporting you is no trouble at all. It’s a win-win. We lend a hand now, and down the line, you can do the same for us.”

Resolute, the girl clung to Kallie’s clothes. “Ma’am, I’m determined to pursue piano. I gratefully accept your help. You are my benefactor, and I will surely give back to you once I’m able.”

Kallie felt a warmth spread through her heart.

“Sweetheart, let’s not delve into that topic right now.” After leaving the concert, Kallie had a thought lingering in her mind.

Surprisingly, Sophie brought it up herself.

“Mom, can we do something for kids who have it tough? There must be countless kids out there who could really use some help.”

In areas plagued by poverty or conflict, not everyone had the luxury of a comfortable life. Wouldn’t everyone prefer to choose a better starting point if they had the option?noveldrama

Kallie was painfully aware that she couldn’t provide a perfect life for every child on Earth. Nonetheless, she was committed to making a difference however she could. What she hadn’t foreseen was that Sophie would mirror this resolve.

Sophie’s tentative smile broke through Kallie’s contemplation.

Sophie stated, “Seeing that girl being pushed around earlier made me think of our own family. Maybe if I step up and help, when my siblings are in a pinch, there might be hands ready to help them too.”

With a tender touch, Kallie caressed Sophie’s hair. “You’re onto something truly noble. Let’s establish a charity in your name once we’re back home.”
