She found herself unexpectedly feeling Like she could Lean on Sanford.
It wasnât solely about the money.
Maggie sensed a deeper connection with Sanford, one that provided her with emotional strength.
Deeply moved, she texted a heartfelt response, simply stating, âThank you.

A smile formed on Sanfordâs lips as he read Maggieâs text, pleased with himself.
The room felt strangely quiet, leaving Sanford with a sense of idleness.
With nothing else to occupy his time, he dialed Brianâs number.

Having a deep understanding of Brian, Sanford nodded inwardly, aware of the complexities of his friendâs emotions.
He raised his glass to his lips, taking a deliberate sip of wine as he gazed at Brian with a curious look, silently encouraging him to share his thoughts.
Met with silence, Sanford added, âWhat did Garry from Goldeer Group do to offend you? He even approached me for help.
What happened? Why are you so angry with him? Did he do something to Rosalynn?â
Brianâs dissatisfaction seemed to deepen at the mention of Rosalynnâs name again.
His anger simmered beneath the surface as he poured another glass of wine.
âAm I speaking to a wall? Why wonât you say anything?â Frustration laced Sanfordâs voice.
Brian had finished an entire bottle of wine, leaving no drop behind.
He rasped, âGet a female escort here.
