He was upset that she had chosen Barlow instead of him.
âAs my employee, if you were to die, Iâd have to pay compensation.

His tone carried a hint of sarcasm.
Rosalynn looked at him, understanding the reason for his anger but remaining silent.
It became silent again.

He looked out the window, his expression cold, and remained silent.

Rosalynn opened the door and let Brian in.
Maggie was not home.
âPlease take a seat.
Iâll get the first-aid kit,â Rosalynn said and then went to get it.

âNo? Werenât you two on a date earlier? Havenât you spent the entire day with him?â Brian questioned her, struggling to contain his anger.
Rosalynn sighed and resumed tending to his wound.

Really?
Brianâs eyes lit up as the heaviness in his heart slowly dissipated.
However, when he recalled Barlowâs claim that they had cooked together, his anger flared once more.
âThen why have you been with him all day? Did you visit his house?â
Rosalynn finished tending to Brianâs injury.
Thoughts of her grandfatherâs house crossed her mind, and she just nodded.
She didnât want Brian to discover that she had been to her grandfatherâs place.
If he continued to probe, he might uncover her true identity.
That would lead to a lot of problems.
