The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 215

Beverly watched Wayne as he walked away.

"You're overthinking things," Beverly said. "He's usually so cold and indifferent. But today, he took care of you all the time and barely ate anything."

Olivia scoffed and retorted, "But his mind seemed elsewhere the entire time."

"Perhaps he was contemplating what to do with the stand-in now that the real one has returned?" Beverly asked with a hint of disdain at the mention of the stand-in.

Olivia didn't respond. She simply turned and made her way toward the house.

As night fell, a soft, chilly drizzle began to fall.

Wayne parked his car by the roadside, sitting inside and smoking one cigarette after another.

It wasn't until the late hours of the night that he finally started the car and left. Aimless initially, he somehow found himself near Rosalynn's apartment.

Being with Rosalynn had always brought him a sense of peace over the years.

After parking the car, he dragged his tired body into Rosalynn's apartment.

He unlocked the door using his fingerprint, assuming she wouldn't be home.

"Wayne?"

Just as he took off his jacket, the bedroom door opened, and there stood Rosalynn in her soft pajamas, her eyes still filled with sleep.

Wayne paused for a moment.

The dim yet warm light highlighted Rosalynn, who emanated a sense of calm and peace.

"You're back?" Wayne asked, swiftly moving to embrace her tightly in his arms.

Her warm body was real, not a figment of his imagination.

"You're squeezing me too tight," Rosalynn patted his back gently, "Ease up a bit!"

"Why did you come back alone? Are you upset that I didn't come to pick you up?" Wayne asked anxiously.

If she got angry, she might run away. Maybe she came back to pack her things. If he hadn't shown up, she could have left!
