â Maggie assisted him to the bed.
âDonât leave.
Can you stay with me?â Sanford pleaded, holding her hand tightly.
Maggie looked into his pleading eyes, opened her mouth, and instinctively glanced at Rosalynn.
Rosalynn observed the scene with a cold demeanor.
She recognized Sanfordâs pretense of agony to keep Maggie by his side.
She felt a wave of annoyance at his deceit.
These men were all adept at deception.
âMaggie, I apologize.
Iâm entirely at fault.
I shouldnât have trusted my motherâs words and suspected you.
Are you angry with me?â
As Maggie glanced at Rosalynn, Sanford tightened his hold on her hand, compelling her to focus on him.
âIâm not angry,â Maggie responded after snapping out of her thoughts.
She understood his paranoia.
Given his past experiences, it was natural for him to be more sensitive in matters of love.
âMaggie, are you really not angry with me?â Sanford asked, his voice tinged with hope.
âNo, Iâm not angry.

âAre you still planning to leave?â
Despite his question, he held her hand tightly, refusing to let go.

âWell, honey, since Sanford acknowledges his mistake, why donât we give him another chance?â Brian interjected at the opportune moment.
Sitting on the bed, Sanford quickly chimed in, âThatâs right, Rosalynn.
I know I was wrong.
I promise I wonât blindly trust othersâ words and doubt Maggie again.
