Chapter 29
Rosalynn hung up the video call and sat on the couch, feeling confused for a moment.
Normally, Grandma lived in a nursing home for easier care. She only went to the old house if there was a big event in the Silverman family.
Just now, when Wayne got his phone back, Rosalynn clearly saw Ms. Rosso looking at her from behind the camera.
So…he wasn’t on a business trip, and today was his engagement?
What was Wayne thinking, letting his grandmother call her on video in front of Ms. Rosso? Was he out of his mind, or just a total jerk who didn’t care about her feelings?
She touched her belly.
“Your dad is such a jerk!” She cursed, then realized she shouldn’t bad-mouth the father in
front of the child.
Annoyed, Rosalynn threw her phone aside and went back to her room to sleep.
Late at night.
Her phone on the couch buzzed twice.
Wayne sent her a message.
“You don’t have to move, I’ll transfer the ownership of that house to you.”
“Also, cash that check for 20 million as soon as possible.”
“And the Moonlit Lake villa, get the ownership transferred to you promptly too.”
There was no response.
He stood on the balcony, smoking half a pack of cigarettes, but wasn’t as angry as he thought he would be.
Wayne slowly scrolled through his chat history with Rosalynn.
Before she knew about his engagement, she would send him messages every day. Apart from work, she would also remind him about the temperature and taking meals…
Yet, his replies to her were scarce.
The next morning, Rosalynn woke up and saw Wayne’s messages.
Sighing, she replied: “Thank you, President Silverman, what you’ve given me before is enough. I don’t need these.”
After replying, she took a taxi to the airport.
She hurried to catch the morning flight to Q City.
Yesterday, she told the site manager that she was coming.
Rosalynn walked out of the airport, pushing her suitcase.
The site manager, Sawyer Galen, had been waiting for her for a long time.
“Mr. Galen.” Rosalynn greeted politely.
“Ah, Secretary Tesdal, it’s great to have you here!” Sawyer Galen quickly had someone take Rosalynn’s suitcase, “How come you’re alone?”
“President Strand will come soon. I came first to get a better understanding of the
situation,” Rosalynn said calmly.
Sawyer grinned, “Alright! Let us treat you to a welcoming dinner today!”
While talking, everyone started to head out.
“Rosalynn!”
At this moment, someone shouted Rosalynn’s name excitedly.
That voice…
Rosalynn turned around and saw Evan, oozing youthful charm, running towards her.
“Evan?” Rosalynn was surprised.
“Are you surprised?” Evan asked with a grin.
“Yes?” Rosalynn hesitated, “Did you come to find me?”
“Yes!” Evan nodded, “I took the night flight last night and have been waiting for you since
before dawn!”
Rosalynn was a bit terrified.
Evan leaned in closer to Rosalynn and whispered, “Treat me to a meal!”,
Rosalynn laughed, “You fly here for just a meal?”
“That depends on who’s treating me!” Evan proudly said.
“Secretary Tesdal, who is this?” Sawyer Galen asked.
“A friend of mine.”
She didn’t want to reveal Evan’s identity since the situation here was unclear.
