“I’ve got the electric razor you wanted, I’m going to toss out that old razor, far, far away!” Rosalynn declared firmly.
Wayne chuckled, “I’ve already thrown that razor out.”
After what had happened, who would dare keep such a dangerous tool around?
He had hurt himself unintentionally, that was one thing. But if his carelessness caused his wife to get hurt, the mere thought made his blood run
cold.
“Alright.” Rosalynn gently touched his wrist, “You go take a shower, I’ll blow dry my hair.”
“Okay.”d2
Wayne said, planting a soft kiss on Rosalynn’s lips before heading straight to the bathroom.
Inside the steamy bathroom, Wayne stood under the hot water, his body marred with scars. The bandage on his wrist was removed, revealing a waterproof plaster undemeath. He wanted the scars to look less jarring, otherwise, Rosalynn would surely grow suspicious.
After the shower, Wayne wrapped his wrist again with a bandage. When he came out, Rosalynn was leaning against the bedpost, nearly asleep.
All his worries seemed to vanish at the sight of his beloved, bathed in the soft, warm glow of the lamp. He gently walked over, turning off the light, and climbed into bed with her This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
“Are you okay?” Rosalynn asked, turning to face him.
“I’m fine.” Wayne’s voice was soft and gentle, so tender it could almost break your heart. He kissed Rosalynn’s lips in the dark, “Sleep well, darling” “Mm.”
As Rosalynn drifted off into sleep, she thought to herself how she had been feeling unusually tired lately. She needed to follow the diet plan Dr. Larkin had suggested, to restore her energy.
Before dawn, the couple was up and about, making the house livelier than usual. Even the night owl Jaime, yawning and fully dressed, was at the elevator, ready to send the kids off to school.
After a busy morning and lunch, Wayne received a phone call
He looked at Rosalynn, “We’ve found it.”
Rosalynn nodded in understanding.
The relentless rain seemed to wash away some of the heat from H City.
Due to the heavy downpour, by afternoon, the sky had turned ominously dark.
After dropping off the kids at home, Wayne and Rosalynn left Moonlit Lake without delay.
They didn’t talk much during the forty-minute drive to their destination.
Ableson, their driver, opened the car door for them.
“President Silverman, Mrs. Silverman,” Ableson greeted respectfully, gesturing towards a private room, “Your guest is waiting inside.”
Wayne’s expression remained indifferent. He held Rosalynn’s hand and walked towards the room.
As they reached the slightly ajar door, a young man’s voice could be heard from inside, “Thank you so much, if it weren’t for you, we’d still be at the mercy of Bane Corporation! Just as you suggested, we raised our contract share, and guess what? They turned us down, but behind our backs, they’ve been trying to persuade our company’s elderlies to make peace with us!*
“The old man even claimed that Bane Corporation has always been generous to us. If that were true, wouldn’t they be throwing a party now that we’ve stopped cooperating? Yet here they are, begging us to continue the partnership!”
