Brian told Sanford the truth.

There was a brief silence on the other end. Sanford finally responded, “I see. So that's the deal. Since it's a fake divorce, why didn't you tell Rosalynn sooner?"

Brian sighed in exasperation. "I'm busy with work right now."

Sanford chuckled softly and added, "Brian, if you keep being tied up with work, your wife will be taken away by someone else."

Perplexed, Brian furrowed his brow and asked, "What do you mean?"

Sanford explained, "Remember I told you that Rosalynn and Maggie were attending a bidding event in Skrix today? Well, guess who they just ran into?"

"Who?"

"It was a man Rosalynn once saved. His name is Lyndon Fernandez.

Maggie said he is quite handsome, with a charisma that could rival yours. What's more, his interest in Rosalynn seemed far from ordinary."

When Brian heard the news, his eyes narrowed, and he snapped out of his drowsiness.

Lyndon Fernandez?

Was he from the Fernandez family in Betton?

The image of a man holding Rosalynn's hand flashed in his mind. He pursed his lips in deep thought.

It was becoming increasingly evident that Lyndon had been treating Rosalynn differently ever since they first crossed paths.

Could it be that he had fallen head over heels for her from the very start?

“Brian, I hate to say it, but you are digging your own grave.. Why don't you tell Rosalynn the truth about the fake divorce? You need to be wary of outsiders meddling in your affairs," Sanford warned him.

Brian clenched his phone tightly, his gaze growing even more intense.

But was it really just a matter of outsiders interfering?

It seemed that whether they stayed married or not, admirers of his wife would keep appearing out of nowhere.

After her phone call with Sanford, Maggie returned to her seat.
