Brian's eyebrows knitted together.

"Mom..."

“Shut up. I'm not asking you. I'm asking Miss Fuller.“ Noemi cut Brian off in a harsh tone.

Brian pressed his Lips together, visibly displeased.

“I'm acquainted with Barlow," Rosalynn finally admitted.

Noemi looked at her.

“That's all? Are you implying you and Barlow are just friends?" le've saved each other's lives," Rosalynn stated calmly.

So, your relationship is unusual? That explains why you spent a night out with him without telling my son. What's your real motive for being with my son? Are you plotting something against him?"

Noemi raised her voice and looked angry.

A heavy silence fell over the private room. Every gaze was glued on Rosalynn, amplifying her discomfort.

Just as she had feared, her mother-in-law had dug up some information.

Perhaps Deanna had shown her the video.

Brian's expression turned stormy, and his icy glare slid over Deanna, sending a chill down her spine.

Deanna shrank her neck, not daring to meet his eyes.

“Mom, relax. Rosalynn isn't going to hurt me," Brian assured.

“How can I remain calm?" Noemi looked at him.

“Don't you know who Barlow is? His mother nearly ended your life! By some miracle, you lived.

Barlow must hate you, considering his expulsion from the Tucker family.

It's the reason he's back, planning to execute what his mother failed.

Brian, Rosalynn is the person that Barlow arranged for you. You're walking into the same trap your father fell into!"

Rosalynn couldn't help but think that Noemi was a bit crazy.

It was just a video of them being in the same room, but Noemi had taken it too far.
