Karina speculated that it might be due to their brief acquaintance or Rosalynn's uncertainty about Kennedi's character.

“Thank you, Rosalynn. That would be wonderful!" Kennedi said with a small smile.

“I'LL forward their numbers right away.”

Rosalynn, already exchanging contact details with Kennedi, nodded.

Soon, they parted ways, heading to their respective homes.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Maggie broke the silence.

“Rosalynn, during dinner, I couldn't help but notice that Kennedi kept looking at you. Her gaze felt strange."

Even Maggie had picked up on it!

Rosalynn asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's hard to put into words. But Kennedi's eyes... It was as if she looked at you with hostility and pity." Maggie's voice faltered as she carefully chose her words.

“I might be mistaken. She has just gone through a painful breakup. Her emotions are probably running high.”

Rosalynn remained silent, her mind swirling with unease about Kennedi's sudden appearance.

Remembering Karina's enthusiasm towards Kennedi, Rosalynn decided to call her once she reached home.

“Karina, have you arrived home yet?"

“No, I'm still on my way back. I just dropped Kennedi off at her hotel." Karina paused for a moment before addressing the elephant in the room.

"Rosalynn, why didn't you let me invite Kennedi to stay over at my place? Are you scared I might become too close to her?"

Rosalynn decided to express her thoughts openly.

“Listen. I know you're kind and friendly, but how well do you know her? You can't be too careful about others’ intentions?"

Karina, being the understanding person she was, had many friends around her.

Of course, Rosalynn hoped that Kennedi was just another harmless acquaintance, but what if she wasn't.

“Are you perhaps feeling jealous? Don't worry. You hold the most important place in my heart," Karina quipped, her voice filled with playful jest.

Rosalynn could not help but smile.
