Strictly speaking, it was only after Ayden's suicide that Natalie developed the habit of fostering children everywhere. Before that, there was only one, Osmond.
In Penn's words, she was looking for emotional compensation, transferring her feelings for Ayden to other children.
"Anyway, we all probably don't want the circumstances of Mr. Ayden's last moments to reoccur," Rosalynn said seriously, looking at Penn.
It was only upon learning the truth about Betsy's death from a hospital worker that Ayden lost his last shred of will to live.
"Ms. Jared, rest assured", Penn responded solemnly. "I will be extremely meticulous. The same mistake won't happen twice."
"Good," Rosalynn nodded.d2
"The medication you need is still in my lab..." Before Penn could finish, Rosalynn interjected, "I can arrange for a plane immediately. Would you prefer I send someone to retrieve it, or would you like to have it delivered?"
"Better to have it delivered," Penn responded.
Following his instruction, Rosalynn arranged for a private plane route.
"I'm sorry if I scared you today," Rosalynn apologized as she saw Penn off.
"You were trying to intimidate me, weren't you? If I were frightened and started lying, you could tell, right?" Penn asked, his demeanor as composed as ever.
Rosalynn didn't lie, and she admitted it directly.
Penn chuckled, "It seems like you've used this tactic on others too. It works well, doesn't it?"
"So far, it's been pretty reliable," Rosalynn said, a rare smile on her face.
