Wayne frowned and got up, walking over.
"Nothing, I'm just thirsty, I wanna have some water..." Heatherway said, sounding a bit flustered.
"Lie down, I'll get it." Wayne poured a glass of water for her.
Heatherway didn't lie back down, though, standing beside the bed.
Taking the water, she hesitated for a second, "Wayne, can we talk about Ms. Tesdal?"
Wayne frowned instinctively.
"I don't mean any harm!" Heatherway hurried to say.
"What do you want to talk about?" Wayne asked, both his tone and expression were cold.
"When Ms. Tesdal was injured, I saw how worried you were about her. You were pretty distracted afterward too." Heatherway gave a helpless smile, not seeming bothered by his relationship with Rosalynn.
"She is indeed very important to me," Wayne replied bluntly. "Ms. Rosso, I won't stand in your way if you want to date other men, so..."
"So even if we get married, you have no intention of ending things with her?" Heatherway took over his sentence.
"Exactly." Wayne nodded.
Heatherway looked like she understood. "At least you're honest."
Wayne didn't respond.
"Fine," Heatherway nodded. "It's better to talk about this upfront. I don't want to be tied down by marriage either. In the future, we'll just go our separate ways. But we still need to act like a loving couple in front of our parents and the media. Is that okay?"
"Sure." Wayne replied.
"Let's get the engagement business over with as soon as possible so we can both be free."
"Okay." Heatherway took a sip of water and lay back down.
Wayne felt rather relieved.
