Rosalynn offered him a smile.
Brian looped an arm around her shoulder and smiled.
âYour grandpa is correct.
Itâs simply my duty.
â
Calvert seemed pleased with his humility.
He turned around and took a seat at the dinner table.
Brian followed suit, with Rosalynn by his side.
In the midst of their meal, Brianâs phone began to ring.
The call was from Edwin,
As Brian listened to Edwinâs report, his expression grew stern.
âWhatâs wrong? Are there issues at the company?â Rosalynn inquired once he ended the call.
âNothing.
Please, continue enjoying the meal.
â Brian proceeded to serve her some food.
Despite his reassurances, Rosalynn knew he had a busy schedule.
Given heâd spent the past two days here with her, he likely had a host of matters to address at the company.
So she said goodbye to her grandpa after dinner.
Being the perceptive man he was, Calvert, despite his reluctance to let them go, insisted they return to sort their affairs.
âBrian, be sure to treat Rosalynn right, or youâll have to deal with me.
â
Calvert had one more thing to say before they left.
Brian assured with a smile, âDonât worry.
As Iâve promised, Iâll take good care of her.
â
Calvert cast a glance at Rosalynn.
âDonât spoil him.
Otherwise, heâll take you for granted.
â
Touched by his words, Rosalynn enveloped Calvert in a hug, whispering gently, âI understand.
Please, look after yourself.
Donât always go into the mountain.
Itâs dangerous.

âIâm well aware.
Now, off you go.
â
Calvert was a stubborn man with a soft heart, subtly ushering the two to depart.
As the car pulled away, Rosalynn craned her neck out the window, waving farewell.
It was heart-wrenching to see her grandfatherâs figure recede into the distance.
She considered inviting him to live with her, but she knew heâd refuse.
He cherished his freedom.
She felt a comforting warmth as Brianâs hand enveloped hers.
