âPerhaps Iâm just weak.
Could you help me lie down?â Barlow requested.
âAlright.
â
Rosalynn assisted him to lie down.
Grinning, Barlow said, âRosalynn, youâre very gentle.
â
Rosalynn glanced at him and adjusted his covers.
âBe mindful of your IV.
Iâm going to grab some supplies and Iâll be back shortly.
â
âAlright.
â
Rosalynn picked up her bag, turned around, and left the room.
The moment she stepped out, she spotted Brian standing at the door, his face devoid of emotion.
She halted, glanced at him, then averted her eyes, proceeding to walk past him.
Brian grabbed her arm and demanded, âRosalynn, can you explain why youâre caring for Barlow?â

Rosalynn tried to shake off his grip.
âLet go.
Iâm busy.
â
Was she busy caring for Barlow?
Brianâs anger rose.
âAre you purposely provoking me? I just appointed Eleanor as a spokesperson, and now youâre getting cozy with Barlow?â
Facing him, Rosalynn freed herself from his hold.
âYes! Since youâre treating Eleanor so well, why canât I be around Barlow?â ouâ¦â Brianâs face darkened, as he strived to control his anger.
âHelping Eleanor is work-related.
It has nothing to do with my personal life.
I didnât betray you.
â
Rosalynn smoothed her hair, flashing a smile.
âBarlow is my client.
Technically speaking, any physical contact I have with him is work-related too.
â
Brian was speechless.
Why did she have an answer for everything?
Rosalynn disregarded him and briskly walked to the elevator.
Brian watched her receding figure until she disappeared into the elevator.
He then spun around and approached the nurse station.
