"What am I supposed to do?" Rosalynn took a sip of the coffee.
The scent of coffee beans filled her nose, making it quite enjoyable.
"In grandma's will, there's also a part for you," Wayne answered.
In fact, he never really understood why his strict and serious grandma, who seemed to dislike everyone, was so fond of Rosa.
But now, he sort of got it.
His wife just had that kind of charm that made people like her involuntarily and become attached to her.
"Oh, that's for Rosalynn, right?" Rosalynn lowered her eyelids, and the coffee before her eyes steamed up a layer of white fog.
Wayne paused for a moment. Then, lowering his eyelids, he said, "You are Rosalynn."
"Legally, Rosalynn is dead," Rosalynn said flatly. "I won't go, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"It's the jewelry collection she gathered over the years," Wayne whispered.
Rosalynn's fingertips stiffened slightly.
She remembered one year attending an elder's birthday party with Wayne in the Silverman family.
She happened to overhear Maddie and several other ladies chatting.
One of them mentioned the grandmother's jewelry collection, "You're gonna inherit all those jewels when she passes, right? Be sure to invite us over to see them!"
Maddie replied nonchalantly, "She said long ago that those jewels are for my son's wife."
"Wayne's wife? Isn't that favoritism?" someone else commented.
Maddie was clearly displeased, but she feigned indifference, "I don't lack jewelry. I can buy whatever I like. If she wants to give it to my son's wife, I'm happy."
Remembering that, Rosalynn finished her coffe and put down the cup, "I'm full. Let's go."
Wayne escorted Rosalynn to the parking lot, the ancient tree still there, rustling its leaves.
"Drive safe." Wayne reminded her.
