Sitting in the back row, Maggie glanced around, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

Rosalynn had an abundance of secrets.

Rosalynn was misunderstood. Though Brian remained silent, he wouldn't turn a blind eye to it.

Would a quarrel ensue when they returned home?

Soon, they reached Beauty Apartments.

After Rosalynn parked the car, they disembarked.

The outside air held a slight chill. Brian placed his coat on Rosalynn.

Maggie witnessed the act and blinked.

She must be overthinking. Brian appeared to be quite fond of Rosalynn.

“Good night, Mr. Hughes, Rosalynn."

At the entrance, Maggie bade the two farewell.

"Good night." Rosalynn waved at her and then trailed Brian into the apartment .

Seeing Brian seated on the sofa, she pursed her lips and went to pour him a glass of water.

The room fell into silence. Rosalynn sat beside him and asked, “Are you unhappy, Brian?"

Brian took a sip of water, traced the rim of the glass with his slender fingers, and admitted, “Yes."

Rosalynn regarded him and asked, “What can I do to make you happy?"

Brian glanced sideways at her and retorted, “What do you think?"

Rosalynn understood that the incident from that night was not entirely resolved.

He wanted to know why she had to stay overnight with Barlow.

Only when she told him the truth would he let it go.

But she couldn't reveal it yet.

The room fell silent once again.
