It was as if she was hinting at some unspoken secret between her and Lyndon.

If it were just the two of them, Brian's comment might have been taken as a playful exchange between a husband and wife.

But how could Brian say such a thing with their mothers right there?

The air grew heavy with tension.

Brian instantly regretted his words.

He had always seen Lyndon as a love rival, after all.

When he heard Lyndon had taken his wife to the hospital, he couldn't help but blurt out his thoughts.

It wasn't that he didn't trust his wife; he just suspected Lyndon of secretly desiring her.

Rosalynn's expression turned icy as Brian reached for her hand.

“Honey...”

“Go ahead and eat."

She pulled her hand away the moment he touched it.

Standing up, Rosalynn addressed Gail, "Mom, I'm going to shower upstairs."

Brian bit his lip, feeling a mix of annoyance and regret.

Gail's expression turned serious.

"Brian, are you suggesting something's going on between Rosalynn and Lyndon?"

“No, absolutely not!" Brian responded quickly. “I trust Rosalynn completely. She only loves me."

It was Lyndon who he didn't trust.

“It's good that you know that. Remember, Brian, Rosalynn's pregnant and more sensitive now. Be patient with her."

“Don't worry. I'll take good care of her. I'm going to check on her now."
