"He can’t even if he wants to," Rosalynn clasped Wayne's hand, "Wayne, you really never suspected that I was bullying him for your money?"
"Nope," Wayne shook his head.
Rosalynn immediately burst into laughter, then gave Wayne a quick peck and lightly pinched his ear: "Babe, are you really that kind-hearted?"
"Mhm." Wayne enjoyed the praise from Rosalynn.
Each time she complimented him, Wayne felt warm inside.
"Do you want to know about your parents?" Rosalynn gripped his hand tighter, "I must warn you, it's brutal. You might be in pain for a long time."
Wayne watched her.
Rosalynn saw deep sorrow in his eyes.
"So, you've been bothered by this, huh?" Wayne gently squeezed her hand, "So that's why you've been restless all night?"
"Mhm." Rosalynn admitted frankly.
"Spill it." Wayne nodded, "I don't want my wife to be troubled by these things!"
Rosalynn let out a wry smile, then she lowered her eyelids, contemplating how to express it: "Your so-called parents are Quentin and Maddie..."
Rosalynn detailed Wayne's background.
Wayne listened the whole time, without any significant reaction, except when he heard Maddie had passed away, he furrowed his brows.
"That's how it is." Rosalynn exhaled deeply. "I don't know if Quentin is aware of your background, but he never took care of you. When you had the accident, he didn't even ask. After more than a month, he came to me with some people, saying you didn't leave a will, and he had the right to divide your property."
"And then?" Wayne asked gently.
"What else could happen? My husband isn't dead, so where's the inheritance?" Rosalynn replied without hesitation.
The softness in Wayne's eyes increased.
