Maggie intervened with a swift message in the group chat.
âI donât need Sanford here.
Let him go with you, Rosalynn.
He should be there to help.
â
Sanfordâs next message arrived promptly, filled with determination.
âMaggie understands.
Itâs settled then.
Iâll accompany you to Boblyae, Rosalynn.
Iâll start reaching out to my contacts there immediately.
â
Rosalynn hesitated, touched by their willingness to help, but she realized any further refusal would seem insincere.
She replied with a simple thank-you emoji to express her gratitude.
Barlow chimed in soon after, âIâll contact my former superior to see if he has any advice.
â
âAlright,â Rosalynn replied.
With that, the plan was set in motion.
Rosalynn closed her eyes for a moment, gripping her phone tightly.
She thought to herself, âBrian, hold on just a bit longer.
Iâm on my way!â
Just then, Gailâs voice drifted through the door as she entered the room.
ââRosalynn, dinnerâs ready.
â
Rosalynn looked up, a spark of resolve in her eyes.
âMom, thereâs news about Brian.
â
Gailâs face lit up with hope.
âReally? Where is he?â
âLetâs go downstairs, and Iâll explain everything,â Rosalynn said, leading the way.
As Rosalynn shared the details with her parents, Brendan, who had been tirelessly searching for Brian, listened intently.
When Rosalynn mentioned Boblyae, his response was immediate.
He wanted to send more people there right away.
Rosalynn, fueled by a mix of anxiety and urgency, interjected, âDad, I need to go to Boblyae myself.
â
Brendanâs brow furrowed with concern.
âRosalynn, itâs not safe for you, especially in your condition.
The area is known for its dangers.
â
Gail echoed his sentiment with evident worry.
âYes, Rosalynn, think about what could happen.
â
Unmoved, Rosalynn responded firmly, âDad, Mom, please understand.
I need to do this myself.
I wonât have peace of mind otherwise.
â
Recognizing the resolve in their daughterâs voice, Brendan and Gail conceded with heavy hearts.
âIâll arrange for some of our best bodyguards to accompany you,â Brendan promised.
âThank you, Dad,â Rosalynn replied, grateful for his support.
Not long after, Barlow updated everyone in the group chat.
