The whole night, Rosalynn and Paige were chatting and laughing. Baillie would occasionally reminisce about his childhood. The atmosphere was more than congenial.
Rosalynn silently thought to herself, this must be the calm before the storm, right?
The night grew deeper, and Paige and Baillie went back to their rooms around eleven.
Perhaps due to his medication, Wayne was somewhat overexcited, full of energy.
Worry clouded Rosalynn's face, and seizing a moment when Wayne was distracted, she quietly sought Penn's counsel.
Penn quickly responded, "It's normal to be a bit overexcited on the first day. You can give him some sleeping pill I prescribed."d2
Rosalynn slipped the medicine into Wayne's nightly medication.
He never checked what she gave him, and he simply swallowed it obediently.
Under the influence of the medication, Wayne seemed to lose his previous negativity.
Lying in bed, gently stroking Rosalynn's cheek, he earnestly told her, "Darling, don't worry. I will get better. We've been through so much to get to this point, we have such lovely children, how could I bear to leave you? I'll get better quickly."
With that, Wayne leaned in and gently kissed Rosalynn's lips. Then, the medicine began to take effect.
He didn't want to sleep, his eyelids flickered open several times, but ultimately the medication won. Rosalynn watched him, softly kissed him back, and said, "Goodnight, Wayne."
After Wayne fell asleep, Rosalynn got up and left the master bedroom, and turned on the temporary surveillance camera they had placed inside.
Mike and Felix were still in the living room. Seeing Rosalynn come downstairs, they visibly relaxed.
