The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2042

Jaime was taken aback for a moment. He subconsciously glanced at Paige.

When his gaze met Paige's tear-filled eyes, he looked back at Rosalynn in shock, "Wayne is...How could this be? It can’t be!" Jaime shot up from his seat.

"Keep it down!" Paige tugged at him.

Jaime felt a chill run down his spine. In his childhood, there was a well-known madwoman in the village. His grandfather told him that her daughter was kidnapped while she was selling fruit at the farmers market, and by the time she found her daughter, the child had frozen to death at the bottom of a dried-up well. Ever since then, the woman had lost her mind.

Jaime remembered, the village's wise old man once said that the woman was so shocked that she developed schizophrenia. Jaime could not, for the life of him, associate Wayne with that madwoman wandering around the village. It was impossible...

No, after all the hardship he put his sister through, how could he be afflicted with such madness!d2

"Dawn is breaking soon." Jaime rubbed his face, "Cory and Ivy should be waking up soon. If no one is home, they will be scared. I'm going back, I'll go first."

With that, Jaime hurried towards the elevator.

"Ja..." Paige wanted to call out to him.

Rosalynn held her hand, "Let him go and rest."

Paige looked at Rosalynn, her heart aching for her.

"Later you and Baillie should go back too, and please help me send Cory and Ivy to school. They will be delighted if you take them."

"I'll tell Baillie to go back, I'll stay with you!" Paige's voice was on the verge of breaking into sobs.

"The sedative should wear off soon, and Wayne will wake up. I have a lot to discuss with him. It’s better if you're not here." Rosalynn's thumb gently rubbed Paige's hand. "Don't worry, I won't hide anything from you."

"But what if he wakes up and attacks you again?" Paige had been avoiding looking at Rosalynn's neck earlier.

"Mike and Felix are here, it will be alright."

Paige pursed her lips. In the end, she couldn't argue with Rosalynn.
