“No.” Brian’s gaze never left her face.
“Then who do you desire?”
“I only crave my wife.”
Delighted, Rosalynn stretched on her tiptoes and planted a peck on his cheek.
The gesture was a clear provocation.

“Selina, I must leave,” she murmured.
Her thoughts were in disarray. She needed to retreat and reevaluate her next move.
After Eleanor made a hasty exit, Selina addressed Brian. “Brian, are you truly considering severing ties
with Eleanor?”
Brian responded impassively, “As I’ve mentioned before, my wife has final say on such matters.”
Was he allowing Rosalynn to influence his professional decisions?
Selina’s eyes blazed with envy at this.
“Rosalynn, you need to consider the broader implications,” Selina admonished. “Even if you are upset
with Eleanor, and rightfully so, you shouldn’t meddle in Brian’s career. Eleanor is a notable celebrity
now. Terminating her contract won’t do anyone any good.”
Rosalynn remained intertwined with Brian. She giggled and cast a glance at him. “Darling, is Hughes

Watching them, Selina struggled to maintain her composure.
Deanna, who had been silently seething, exploded in rage. “Brian, are you going to let her get away
with anything she wants?”
“Yes, I am,” Brian replied coolly. “She is my wife, and I am more than willing to indulge her.”
Deanna was livid. “You’ll regret this, Brian!”
