"Could you guys leave?" Wayne said, not even bothering to look at Maddie.
Maddie took a deep breath.
geez, every second spent here was taking a year off her life!
As if she really wanted to stay.
Maddie stood up without a word to the old lady and left.
The noblewoman followed her like a dog on a leash.
The door was closed.
With two people left, the atmosphere in the room became strangely tranquil.
Rosalynn also ignored Wayne.
Grabbing her unfinished book from the afternoon, she asked, "Shall we continue with the book, ma'am?"
"Sure," the old lady nodded.
She looked at Rosalynn with eyes full of affection.
She'd had a daughter once too.
Unfortunately, the world was in chaos when her daughter was born.
She had protected her sister's child, but her own daughter had died.
Now, those children from her sister's family have been living a luxurious life thanks to her, but they never bothered to visit after she was sick.
Wayne sat there, quietly watching Rosalynn reading.
A small lamp shining on her, making her look even more gentle.
Wayne's heart suddenly sank when he remembered what his grandma said about finding her a better match for marriage.
Would she marry someone else?
He immediately denied the idea.
No way in hell.
Even if it meant imprisoning her by his side for a lifetime, and having her hate him forever, he would never let her marry someone else!
Rosalynn tucked her falling hair behind her ear.
