The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love

The whole night, Rosalynn and Paige were chatting and laughing. Baillie would occasionally reminisce about his childhood. The atmosphere was more than congenial.

Rosalynn silently thought to herself, this must be the calm before the storm, right?

The night grew deeper, and Paige and Baillie went back to their rooms around eleven.

Perhaps due to his medication, Wayne was somewhat overexcited, full of energy.b2 Worry clouded Rosalynn's face, and seizing a moment when Wayne was distracted, she quietly sought Penn's counsel. Penn quickly responded, "It's normal to be a bit overexcited on the first day. You can give him some sleeping pill I prescribed."Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Rosalynn slipped the medicine into Wayne's nightly medication.

He never checked what she gave him, and he simply swallowed it obediently.

Under the influence of the medication, Wayne seemed to lose his previous negativity.

Lying in bed, gently stroking Rosalynn's cheek, he earnestly told her, "Darling, don't worry. I will get better. We've been through so much to get to this point, we have such lovely children, how could I bear to leave you? I'll get better quickly."

With that, Wayne leaned in and gently kissed Rosalynn's lips. Then, the medicine began to take effect.

He didn't want to sleep, his eyelids flickered open several times, but ultimately the medication won. Rosalynn watched him, softly kissed him back, and said, "Goodnight, Wayne."

After Wayne fell asleep, Rosalynn got up and left the master bedroom, and turned on the temporary surveillance camera they had placed inside.

Mike and Felix were still in the living room. Seeing Rosalynn come downstairs, they visibly relaxed.

"What's with those faces?" Rosalynn asked.

"No..." Felix waved his hand dismissively.

"I'm not so lovestruck as to be completely oblivious." Rosalynn self-deprecatingly lowered her gaze. "I still have Cory and Ivy"

If, even if it's a one in a million chance, the incident at the lake were to happen again, and she were to die at Wayne's hands.

She would be gone, unaware and unfelt. But for Cory and Ivy, their future would be like walking through the abyss of hell.

"You haven't had a proper sleep in days. Go rest." Rosalynn paused, looking at Felix, "Tomorrow when we go camping, don't waste all your energy worrying about me. Have a good time with Molly." Felix felt a sudden sting in his nose, then he nodded, "I understand."

"Goodnight." Rosalynn nodded lightly.

Mike hesitated before leaving, but was dragged out by Felix. Mike looked back one last time at Rosalynn.

Most of the lights in the living room were now off. Only a small nightlight near the sofa was still on, casting a dim light on Rosalynn's petite figure, huddled in the corner of the couch.

It looked as if she had been abandoned by the world.

Mike could barely remember what she looked like when she was more lively and spirited.

Just as Mike was about to step outside, he suddenly felt eyes on him from the staircase.

He looked up, on guard, and then froze.

Jaime was sitting on the steps, barefoot, with messy hair, looking even more desolate than Rosalynn.
