Was her vow of celibacy a lifelong tribute to the late Barlow Tucker?
With a firm pat on Jackâs shoulder, Karina exuded authority.
âBe good, work hard, and make me money.
â
Rosalynn watched, feeling a pang of sympathy for her friend yet also admiring her decisiveness.
Karina was becoming more formidable by the day.
However, Rosalynn couldnât help but wonder if Karina truly planned to remain single forever.
At that moment, her phone rang.
It was Brian.
Rosalynnâs expression softened as she answered, âHello?â
âWhere are you?â Brianâs gentle voice filled the phone.
âOn set.
â
âAlright,â Brian said.
âKaliyah and her assistant just landed.
Should IT send her to the set?
The famous designer, Kaliyah, was in Skrix?
Rosalynn chuckled softly.
âSure.
â
âAlright then.
â Brian ended the call quickly.
It was a quick call squeezed between his busy schedule.
âLook at you, glowing.
Was that your husband?â Karina teased.
âYeah,â Rosalynn replied with a smile.
âThe famous bridal gown designer, Kaliyah, is coming here soon.
â
âBrian arranged for a custom-made wedding dress?â Karina raised an eyebrow.
âYep.
â
âOh dear! Another dose of sweetness for yours truly,â Karina shook her head playfully.
Rosalynn couldnât help but laugh, amusement fading as she recalled the earlier scene.
âKarina, we canât bring the dead back to lifeâ¦â Rosalynn started, but Karina cut her off.
âStop right there,â Karina said firmly.
âRosalynn, I know what youâre thinking.
But you also know Iâm stubborn.
â
Karina knew that falling for someone meant they wouldnât vanish from her thoughts easily.
She had loved twice, and that was enough for her.
She was not in the mood for a new relationship.
Rosalynn held back her words.
It was her best friendâs choice.
All she could do was silently support her.
She thought maybe someone would change her friendâs mind someday.
An hour later, a crew member ushered in two women.
âMs.
Fuller, these ladies have an appointment with you,â he said.
âThank you,â Rosalynn replied, standing up.
One bowed slightly.
âHello, Ms.
Fuller.
Iâm Kaliyah.
â
Kaliyah appeared to be in her forties, with light blond curly hair.
Her makeup was flawless.
She was undoubtedly a mixed-heritage beauty.
âPleased to meet you.
Iâm Rosalynn,â Rosalynn replied politely, her gaze flickering to the woman beside Kaliyah.
Her eyes widened in surprise as she got a clear look.
