Witnessing the display, Selina unconsciously tightened her grip on Eleanorâs arm.
Feeling the discomfort, Eleanor dislodged her hand and averted her gaze from Rosalynn.
âSelina, I must leave,â she murmured.
Her thoughts were in disarray.

Their eyes locked, radiating mutual affection and understanding.

Deanna, who had been silently seething, exploded in rage.
âBrian, are you going to let her get away with anything she wants?â
âYes, I am,â Brian replied coolly.
âShe is my wife, and I am more than willing to indulge her.
â
Deanna was livid.
âYouâll regret this, Brian!â
