The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 2123

After dinner, Hilaria summoned Rosalynn to the study.

"Here, you can deliver this to the Strand boy tomorrow." Hilaria handed over a leather document pouch to Rosalynn.

Rosalynn took it and nodded, "Let's hope Jacob steps up his game this time. It'd be a shame for your kindness to go unnoticed."

"Don't worry about it. I've had a look at the lad's business dealings before; He used to be content playing second fiddle to Wayne, but he's got potential," Hilaria said with earnest approval.

"Mhm," Rosalynn hummed in agreement.

"Alright then, you've got an early start tomorrow. Off you go, get some rest," Hilaria patted Rosalynn's hand gently.d2

Leaving the study, Rosalynn bumped into Erica, who had been lingering nearby.

Rosalynn chuckled upon seeing her, "Waiting for someone?"

Erica quickly stepped forward, pulling Rosalynn into a corner, "What's that you're holding?"

"It's something for Jacob tomorrow." Rosalynn replied.

"Oh," Erica thought for a moment before saying, "I heard about Lenora's ordeal."

Erica had a wide social circle back in the day because of Jacob. Among them, there were ladies who knew Lenora. Though Lenora wasn't hospitalized, the news spread like wildfire; there are no secrets that time does not reveal.

In the past few days, the word had gotten out. Some ladies and young heiresses, under the guise of letting Erica know that justice had been served, told her all about it.

"It's ridiculous; I've deleted all of their contacts, and I don't even use the old number anymore, but they still found a way to reach me!" Erica said with a disgusted expression, "What justice? What grudge do I have? I'm doing just fine now!"

"Don't let it get to you," Rosalynn advised sensibly. "Most of these people have probably been bullied by Lenora in the past. You know how she was - she was notoriously mean to a lot of people."
