The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1424

But then, she reconsidered. There was still plenty of time, and she would pull out all the stops to make Alan fall for her.

That way, even if he regained his past memories later, it wouldn’t matter. Her dad once told her, the heart knows who treats it best.

Rosalynn pointed towards the area where Wayne planned to build a water house, describing Wayne's plan to Evan.

Evan glanced at it, then turned to Rosalynn, “Do you really believe Wayne will come back, Rosalynn?”

Everyone else in the world had come to terms with Wayne’s death. It seemed like only Rosalynn and her kids still believed that he was alive, that he will return.

“Absolutely.” Rosalynn looked at Evan, stating firmly, “So you better keep your emotions in check. We were never a thing, and we never will be.”

“How can you be so sure about us not having a shot, when you never even tried?” Evan asked, his voice heavy.

This was the most definitive rejection he had received from Rosalynn.

The sea breeze hit Rosalynn’s face, messing up her hair.

She tidied her hair, hugged her arms, and looked out at the sea, “Six years ago, Wayne drove me into a corner. I thought I hated him for good. But over the years, all sorts of men have come and gone, yet I never felt anything for any of them. My grandma thought I’d lost the ability to love because of the deep hurt Wayne caused. She even wanted to find me a shrink.”

Evan listened, his eyebrows furrowed, but remained silent.

“I thought so too, that I’d lost the ability to love. But it wasn’t until I met him again that I realized, it’s not that I can’t love, it’s just that I can only love Wayne. My love for him is as essential as my life. I can’t love multiple people at once, I can only love one, and that one has to be Wayne.” Rosalynn looked at Evan, “Do you get it, Evan?”

Evan’s eyes reddened slightly.

“I understand.”

How could he not?

Isn’t that the same as his feelings for Rosalynn?

Ever since that glance on the cruise ship, all the women in the world have become dull and uninteresting to him.

Except for Rosalynn, no one else could stir his emotions.
