Chapter 1761
Rosalynn looked up, her face pale, lips cracked, and eyes rimmed red. She nodded.
“I get it.”
The man stood on a higher ground, looking down at Rosalynn. She had just foxed his tie for him, then he walked
away without looking back.
“What’s wrong?” Rosalynn immediately became serious, anxiously looking at Wayne. “Are you not feeling well?”
Wayne just stared at her.
In his mind, the image of her pitiful, wronged face slowly overlaid her current anxious expression.
Wayne felt his heart was being pulled back and forth by numerous blunt knives. The pain was unbearable.
“I’m fine” Wayne shook his head, reached out to hug Rosalynn, holding her tightly. “Just need to hold you for a bit, a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthug will do.” Rosalynn became more worried, “Did I hurt you somewhere?”
“You think you have the strength to hurt me? Then I must be too frail Wayne buried his head in her neck. “I just…. I
just missed you.” Rosalynn paused for a moment, then realized something.
“Did you remember something?”
Was it about the memories of the past five years?
Wayne was silent for a moment, I remember us in a hotel, I told you… to keep a distance from me in public.”
Rosalynn paused again.
She and Wayne had been to many hotels, traveling for work countless times throughout the year.
But if the condition was the phrase “keep a distance from me in public… then it could only be the first time they
slept together.
From the beginning of her time as a stand-in, she was very clear about her position and took her job seriously.
Wayne said to keep a distance from him in public.
She had always followed his words, never initiating closeness in public unless Wayne asked her to be by his side.
So, he only said it once.
“Did that happen?” Rosalynn gently stroked Wayne’s head. “Who knows how long ago that was, don’t think about it
anymore.” Wayne didn’t speak, just quietly held Rosalynn for a while.
Just that image made Wayne feel incredibly precious.
According to what Jacob said, there seemed to be more egregious things that had happened.
So, Rosalynn didn’t want Wayne to have acupuncture because she didn’t want him to remember these memories.
That night, Wayne had a particularly restless sleep.
In his dreams, he could always see those clear red-rimmed eyes, as if silently accusing him.
The next morning
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhile Rosalynn, Paige, and Erica were out for a walk, Wayne took the opportunity to seek out Larkin.
“Do you want to try acupuncture? Does Rosalynn know?” Larkin asked.
“She doesn’t need to know.” Wayne answered, 1 plan to not do it in Norhaven. After Paige gives birth, I’ll have the
acupuncture therapy back in H City.” Larkin hesitated, “Then wait until you’re back in H City. If you’re still adamant,
I’ll give you the therapy”
“Thank you! Wayne said sincerely
“You’re welcome”
And so, the two came to an agreement.
Time passed slowly in silence
Before they knew it, Paige’s due date was fast approaching
Other than Paige, who was about to give birth, everyone else was on high alert
Jaime and Hilaria, along with Calvin, rushed over from H City
Seeing Paige’s severely swollen legs, Jaime couldn’t help but hide in a corner and quietly shed tears.
