Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape
Chapter 1546
?Chapter 1546:
The assistant breathed out in relief, nodding approvingly. “She brought this upon herself. You gave her so many chances, but she insisted on making trouble.”
“Let’s go,” yton said with a straight face as he quickly rolled up the window.
When Beth received the photos, her fingers trembled as she scrolled through them. Her vision blurred, the world tilting for a moment as disbelief coursed through her veins. yton and Caitlin together. She had suspected it before, but every time she confronted yton, he had assured her otherwise. He had said he wouldn’t marry anyone else and that he only felt sorry for Caitlin. That was all.
Beth couldn’t understand why, out of all the people in the world, yton had to pity Caitlin. Lately, her rtionship with yton had improved significantly. She didn’t want to ruin that. She had convinced herself that things would get better with time, that patience would be enough. But she never expected that his tenderness had only been a cover for his affair with Caitlin.
The photos told a different story. yton and Caitlin appeared together at various tourist spots abroad, their interactions intimate and effortless. They looked like a couple in love. yton’s smile was the worst part. It was soft, affectionate—nothing like the distant, measured expressions he gave Beth.
Beth’s grip on the photos tightened, her hands trembling with anger and heartbreak.
From the sidelines, the butler watched, worry etched across his face, his silent presence a witness to her unraveling. “Miss Fletcher, don’t take it too hard. At least the truth is out now.”
Beth inhaled deeply, her expression hardening. “You’re right. At least I’m no longer left in the dark like some gullible fool.” A sudden thought struck her, and she let out a cold, scornfulugh. “Caitlin always carries herself with such an air of virtue, as if she’s above it all. Thest time I confronted her, she swore she had nothing to do with yton. And yet, here she is—the most shameless woman alive.”
Sensing Beth’s growing fury, the butler hurried to cate her. “Miss Fletcher, please don’t act rashly. Right now, Mr. Morgan’s attention is entirely on Miss Cooper. If anything were to happen to her, it would only anger him.”
Beth’s hand shot out, sending a vase shattering to the floor. Her voice was razor-sharp as she dered, “I refuse to choke down this humiliation! If Caitlin had the audacity to steal my man, then she must suffer the consequences. Even if I can never have yton, I won’t let her walk away unscathed. And who knows? If he sees her broken and pathetic, maybe he’ll finally lose interest in her.”

Strangely, Beth had a feeling that despite yton’s special treatment toward Caitlin, he seemed to treat her more like an amusing distraction than a woman he truly cherished. Judging by Caitlin’s demeanor, Beth was convinced—yton didn’t truly love Caitlin.
That thought alone brought Beth a sliver of satisfaction. She rose to her feet, fixing the butler with a steely gaze. “Find out where Caitlin and yton are right now. Sooner orter, she’ll be alone—I refuse to believe otherwise.”
The butler felt an icy chill creep into his heart at the ruthless determination in Beth’s eyes. Swallowing his unease, he attempted to reason with her. “Miss Fletcher, perhaps it would be wiser to wait until she returns before making a move.”
Beth shot him a withering look. “Are you a fool? If shees back, she’ll be harder to reach. She made the reckless choice to follow him abroad, handing me the perfect opportunity.”
“Perfect opportunity. yton may be there too, but at worst, he’ll call off the engagement. Do you really think he would go as far as waging war against the Fletcher family over Caitlin? I highly doubt it.”
The butler mulled over her words, and the more he thought about it, the more they made sense. Caitlin’s actions had indeed overstepped boundaries, and he understood Beth well enough to know that if she didn’t find an outlet for her fury, things could spiral out of control. Reluctantly, he nodded. “Understood, Miss Fletcher. I’ll take care of it right away.”
At hispliance, a satisfied smile flickered across Beth’s lips, though her eyes remained devoid of warmth. She would find Caitlin and ensure Caitlin paid the price dearly.
Meanwhile, Linsey felt indignation rise within her upon hearing Kallie’s ount. “Why would Caitlin assume you were behind it? If you truly wanted to go after her, you had plenty of chances when she first arrived at the Nixon estate, alone and vulnerable. Why wait until now?”
Kallie let out a quiet, bitter chuckle. “Given the situation, there were only two possible culprits—yton or me.”
