Sanford guided Brian to the door to Brianâs apartment, fumbling with the passcode.
Rosalynn watched them from her doorway, a crease forming on her forehead.
âWhy not send him back to his family?â
âBrian was adamant about coming here.
I couldnât dissuade him.
â Sanford swung open the door, casting a helpless glance at Rosalynn.
âThe manâs as stubborn as a mule.
â
Rosalynn responded with silence, her lips pressed tightly together.
Anxiety flickered in Sanfordâs eyes.
âDonât just stand there.
Do you know Garry from Goldeer Group? Heâs in trouble, and Brianâs the cause.
ALL to avenge you.
Can you fathom the cost and enemies Brianâs racking up?â
Rosalynnâs heart stuttered.
âI didnât ask for his intervention.
â
She was capable of handling her own affairs.
Why did he insist on meddling?
âHe bends over backwards for you, and yet, you donât appreciate it.
â
A sense of futility washed over Sanford, finding empathy for Brian.
Rosalynn was a tough nut to crack.

In contrast, Maggie was a soft touch, easily soothed by his words.
In Sanfordâs eyes, Maggieâs charms far outstripped those of Rosalynn.
With a final glance at Sanford and Brian, Rosalynn spun on her heel, retreating to her home.
Sanford muttered a curse under his breath.
âRosalynn, are you really not going to help?â
If his scheme fell apart today, heâd never brainstorm for Brian again.
Such a thankless task!
Rosalynnâs voice drifted back.
âAny ingredients at his place?â
Sanford answered immediately, âNone!â
So, she was heading home to gather soup ingredients.
Sanford was thrilled.
A sense of relief washed over him.
He helped Brian inside, depositing him onto the sofa.
