They could maintain a semblance of normalcy for a few days, but the underlying tension might eventually lead them to part ways.

"Rosalynn, drink some water," Gail offered, pouring a glass for her daughter.

“Thank you, Mom," Rosalynn murmured, her hands cold and her spirit colder still.

She took a deep gulp, trying to quench more than just her thirst.

Gail sighed deeply, her face etched with worry. “I really don't understand why she's become this way. She's been seeing a therapist, but it seems her depression is only deepening."

Holding the glass in her hand, Rosalynn pressed her lips together tightly.

“Depression is essentially a mental illness. Even after treatment, while someone might seem normal on the surface, they can still experience a relapse if something triggers themif something reminds them of their past or hits a nerve," she explained.

“Maybe she saw how close I am with Lyndon, and given her own experiences, she overthought things," she added.

Gail nodded, her gaze softening as she looked at her daughter who had now calmed down. A hint of pity flashed through her eyes.

Fortunately, her daughter had reunited with them.

If she had still been parentless, facing such an unreasonable mother-in-law, who knew how much she would have suffered?

At the same time, Gail couldn't how Noemi become like this.

After hanging up the phone, Brian raced back home at breakneck speed.

As soon as he parked the car, he noticed Lyndon also stepping out of his own vehicle.

Remembering Rosalynn's words over the phone, Brian was certain his mother harbored suspicions of an affair between his wife and Lyndon.

Anger simmering within him, he fixed Lyndon with a frosty stare.

Unaware of the day's events, Lyndon was taken aback by Brian's intense glare and raised his eyebrows in confusion. "What did I do to offend you?"

Brian's expression remained icy as he pondered for a moment before responding, “Lyndon, I'm not sure of your intentions, but if you genuinely care about Rosalynn's happiness, I think it's best you move out of the Moreno household."

With that, Brian walked past him, his steps firm.

Lyndon's eyes narrowed, puzzled by the sudden confrontation.
