Rosalynn declared.
âAlright.
â Barlow looked at Haleigh with a playful smile.
âBy the way, Auntie, Rosalynn and we are neighbors.
Werenât you planning on inviting her over to our place?â
They were neighbors!
Brian, who had been sitting silently, shot Barlow a stern Look.
âYes, Rosalynn.
Are you available tonight? How about joining us for dinner at our place?â Haleigh inquired.
Rosalynn felt a bit awkward and unsure how to respond.
At that moment, Brian interjected, âIâm sorry.
Rosalynn has to work late tonight.
â
She had to work late? Rosalynn herself wasnât aware of it! Regardless, Brianâs response provided her with a way out.
Rosalynn offered a silent smile.
âOh? What about tomorrow night?â Barlow had a smile on his face as he played with his phone.
âSheâs swamped with work lately.
â Brian decided on Rosalynnâs behalf, his refusal was quite evident.

Sensing Haleighâs gaze, Rosalynn smiled and said, âIâm sorry.
Letâs plan a dinner some other time.
â
Haleigh glanced at Barlow and waited for him to speak.
Still smiling, Barlow stood up and said, âNo worries, Rosalynn.
Weâll have plenty of time to get along with each other.
â
Rosalynn remained silent, standing up to see the two guests off.
Brian pursed his lips and habitually tapped his thigh with his slender fingers.
Did they share the same apartment building?
Was Barlow getting close to her because he intended to pursue her?
After stepping out of the elevator, Haleigh asked, âBarlow, are you trying to get revenge on the Hughes family?â
Barlowâs eyes sparkled.
âAuntie, youâre overthinking it.
â
âIâm not overthinking.
Barlow, I noticed you acted quite familiar with Rosalynn.
Is it because Brian is also fond of her?â Haleigh held Barlowâs arm and asked.
Barlow merely chuckled, not giving a direct answer.
âAuntie, trust me.
