Barlow watched her leave with Virgil, a faint smile dancing on his lips.
Annalise, on the other hand, began crying hysterically on the floor.
Barlow rolled his eyes and exited the room, closing the door behind him.
His eyes instantly fell on Rosalynn, and his expression turned mischievous.
âWhat a coincidence! What might you be doing here, Rosalynn?â
Brian stepped in before Rosalyn could utter a word.
âWhat are you doing here, Barlow?â
Barlow raised an eyebrow, his smile widening.
âI am here to pursue the woman I Like.
â
Pursue a woman?
Was he talking about Karina?
Brian narrowed his eyes and asked, âYou mean Karina, right?â
âOf course not.
Are you unaware that Iâve been wooing Rosalynn for a while now?â
Barlow turned his attention back to Rosalynn and added, âI agreed Karina to seduce Annalise so that Karina would put in a good word for me with Rosalynn.
I was planning to tell Rosalynn, but I suppose itâs just as well that she was here to see everything unfold.
Well, Rosalynn? Were you impressed?â
He was obviously teasing her.
Brian was not amused, though.
His arms reflexively wound around Rosalynn and pulled her close.
A cold glint appeared in his eye.
He Looked like a wild animal ready to pounce at the slightest hint of a threat.
Barlow took it all in.
âRosalynn, exactly what is going on between you and Brian?â

âWhat do you think? We spent a very enjoyable evening here Last night,â
Brian cut in yet again.
His embrace tightened around her.
A trace of dejection came over Barlowâs eyes, but it was gone in the next second.
âWhy did I never think of this? Should I have just forced you, Rosalynn?â
Brianâs face hardened.
âMind your tongue, Barlow.
Rosalynn and I are in love.
â
Barlow ignored him and looked Rosalynn in the eye.
âIs he telling the truth?â
Rosalynn was at a loss.
ALL that she could think of at the moment was that Barlow was very hard to read.
