The waiter was found in time, rushed to the hospital, and was currently undergoing treatment.

Brian's forehead creased as he absorbed Hutton's narrative.

"Why would Eleanor want to kill John?"

Just as Hutton was about to answer, Rosalynn's voice filled the air, punctuating their conversation with her entrance.

“Eleanor slept with John to get a role. Terrified that you'd despise her if you found out, she concocted this plot. Considering her ongoing feud with Valeria, she saw an opportunity to pin the murder on her. It was her twisted version of killing two birds with one stone."

Rosalynn concluded Eleanor's thought process. Brian's eyes narrowed as he pondered deeply.

Could it be that Eleanor killed John because she slept with him to get a role?

Something didn't quite add up.

He had made a promise to elevate Eleanor's fame. Even if she slept with someone else, he had no intention of breaking his promise.

But why did she resort to murder?

Was the loss of her baby accidental, or...?

“What's that? Do you feel pity for her? Do you want to protect her?"

Noticing Brian's silence, Rosalynn raised her eyebrows inquisitively.

Shaking off his thoughts, Brian offered a smile.

"She's broken the law.

Why would I go out of my way to protect her?"

“Oh really? She once carried your child," Rosalynn said on purpose.

Catching the hint in her words, Brian read the thoughts behind her lovely face. A knowing smile curled up on his Lips

“Honey, don't you know that everybody thinks I'm a heartless man? It wouldn't make much difference this time."

Rosalynn returned his smile, deciding it was time to share news about the baby.

"Actually..."

"Ouch, Hutton, my stomach is killing me." Valeria's voice interrupted from behind.
