She looked considerably worn down.
With a heart full of concern, Hilaria gently caressed her granddaughter's cheek. "Why on earth have you worn yourself out like this? Doesn't Wayne have a whole team of managers handling things over at Bane Corporation?"
"I'm okay, really, not tired," Rosalynn replied with a shake of her head. "Day after tomorrow, Erica Shields and Larkin Carter will be passing through H City, and they're planning to drop by. I'll ask him to prescribe me some more of those revitalizing supplements."
Tears welled up in Hilaria's eyes as she pulled Rosalynn into an embrace.
"Oh, my precious child," she thought, "Why do you have such tough life?"
Meanwhile, Paige paced back and forth in the living room.d2
"Hilaria didn’t even bother to check on Trista. She just pulled Rosalynn into a room with that stern face of hers. I've got this uneasy feeling in my gut!"
Baillie, cradling her daughter, followed Paige's anxious strides with her eyes, "Hilaria loves Rosalynn. Even if she's upset, she wouldn't say a harsh word to her."
"Do you think... do you think Granny Hilaria might push Rosalynn towards a divorce?" Paige whispered, stopping in front of Baillie.
Baillie pondered for a moment. "It's possible, but I doubt Rosalynn would agree to it."
Paige sighed deeply. Still worried, she decided to call the kids over.
"Ivy and Cory, Granny Hilaria just got in, and she's probably giving your mom a talking-to right now. We need to launch a rescue mission!"
