“Your affairs have nothing to do with me. Whatever relationship we had is now over."

Rosalynn managed to speak calmly this time. She held her head high and walked into the elevator.

The doors closed, separating them permanently.

Brian's lips turned down, his face twisting into a forbidding expression,

It was just as he had expected.

Once Rosalynn found out about the baby, she would break up with him.

Was there really no room for negotiations?

Rosalynn went into her apartment.

Hutton was instantly there, meeting her at the entrance with a look of concern.

"Are you okay?"

She forced a smile.

"I'm fine."

Hutton huffed.

"You must have seen the news, right? Don't forget that you are Brian's wife. You can tell Eleanor to get an abortion. She can't have any say in the matter."

Rosalynn headed to the bathroom.

"That's not necessary. I don't want to murder an unborn child.”

Hutton trailed behind her.

“I admit that the old man is one annoying bastard, but you love him, don't you? What are you going to do now?"

Rosalynn hunched over the sink and took a deep breath. When she looked up again, she stared at her reflection with determination.

“I can tolerate his past affairs, but I won't stand for him having a child with another woman. A child only complicates matters. And I don't really have the energy to get tangled up in any more trouble..."

She trailed off into silence.

Hutton was about to press her on what she meant by that, but they were interrupted by the sudden ringing of her phone.
