The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2076

When Wayne came to again, he was already dressed in a patient gown, in a ward.

This room was unlike any other hospital room he had been in.

The walls were a soothing shade of pale green.

"You awake?" Rosalynn's voice echoed near Wayne.

He took a moment for his memories to resurface from before he blacked out.

Wayne instantly rose.d2

"Easy there." Rosalynn stood up as well.

"Rosa..." Wayne looked at her, then to her neck.

Days had passed and the bruise on her neck had faded somewhat, but it was still clearly visible.

Penn had asked her to remove her scarf and makeup.

Perhaps to make Wayne face the harsh reality, which would be beneficial for his upcoming treatment at the research facility.

Wayne reached out to touch it, but he dared not.

Rosalynn took his hand and placed it on her neck, saying, "He did this."

Tears welled up instantly in Wayne's eyes, and he was overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness.

"It looks pretty bad, huh?" Rosalynn, too, had tears in her eyes, but she was still smiling, "So we must defeat him. For me, for Cory and Ivy so they won't be at risk of being hurt by him. Wayne, you must stay here."

"But I'll miss you." Wayne felt extremely wronged. Even when he was a child, disregarded by his mother and ignored by his father, he had never felt this wronged.

Rosalynn felt a pang of heartache. She tenderly kissed Wayne a few times, "I'll miss you too, a lot. But I believe in you and Penn, it won't be too long."

Wayne understood the logic in her words, but that didn't stop his breakdown.
