The revelation that Brian lived across from Rosalynnâs apartment stirred up a whirlpool of questions in Maggieâs mind.
Had Rosalynn spent the night at his place?
âMaggie, itâs not what youâre thinking,â Rosalynn hurriedly tried to explain, her hand instinctively going up to her forehead.
Brian, leaning against the doorframe, silenced her with a finger to his lips.
âRemember to keep it hush-hush.
Sheâs a bit shy.
â
Maggie blinked, before nodding in understanding.
âYes, Mr.
Hughes.
â
Her mind raced.
So, Rosalynn was with Brian now?
âWhat nonsense!â Rosalynn protested, shooting Brian a fierce look.
âQuit making things up.
â
Brian only arched an eyebrow, his face the picture of innocence.
âRosalynn, donât be so hostile.
Iâve got this from a renowned restaurant in the western suburbs.
Iâ11 head upstairs to change.
Iâ11 join you for breakfast later.
â Maggie gave the breakfast to Rosalynn.
The implication was clear.
Brian had taken a shine to Rosalynn.

Feeling cornered, Rosalynn keyed in the password to her apartment, the door swinging open.
Just as she was about to close it, she noticed Brian attempting to follow her in.
âWhy are you trailing me?â she questioned, her brows furrowing in confusion.
âI havenât had breakfast yet,â Brian replied nonchalantly.
âThatâs not my problem.
We donât know each other well!â
With that, Rosalynn shot him a final, glaring look before slamming the door shut.
Left alone in the corridor, Brian allowed a silent smile to curl his lips.
What a fiery spirit she had!
Retrieving his phone, he swiftly sent a message to Sanford.
âJoin me for breakfast downstairs.
