Observing Sanfordâs reaction, Brian furrowed his brows slightly.
âI believe you should confront her.
â
His instincts told him that Maggie was not the kind of woman to engage in such behavior.
âIâve already ended things with her.
Thereâs no point in seeking answers now,â Sanford dismissed, no longer willing to dwell on the topic of Maggie.
âWhat about you and Rosalynn? Are you breaking up too?â
A shadow crossed Brianâs face, his expression darkening.
âYou never seem to want me to find happiness, do you?â
They only had an argument, but they hadnât reached the point of breaking up just yet!
Sanford chuckled at his own blunder.
âAlright, then.
What exactly happened between you two? Why is she accompanying Barlow in the hospital?â
Brian took a sip of wine before answering, âPerhaps it was because I upset her.

Brian confided in Sanford, recounting every detail of his conversation with Eleanor and the heroic act performed by Barlow to save Rosalynn.
Sanford raised an eyebrow in amusement.
âWhat a coincidence.
Barlow chose the perfect moment to swoop in.
But how on earth did you manage to juggle two women at once? No wonder Rosalynn is furious.
â
Gazing into the depths of his wine glass, Brian contemplated his actions.
âWas I mistaken? I made a promise to Eleanor, and I intend to keep it.
But Rosalynn insists that since I treat Eleanor well, she has the right to treat Barlow however she pleases.
Why must she think that way?â
Sanford let out a chuckle.
âItâs a sign that she cares about you.
â
âCare? She didnât even give me an ounce of respect in front of Barlow.
How can that be considered caring?â Brian retorted with bitterness.
Taking a sip of his wine, Sanford replied, âYouâre right.
Youâve been bending over backward to please her all along.
â
Brian shot him a glare.
âJust keep your mouth shut!â
Sanfordâs smile widened.
âOh, Brian, the truth can be rather unpleasant to hear.
â
âIf I had a needle, Iâd sew your mouth shut.
â
âDonât Let embarrassment get the best of you,â Sanford teased.
Noticing the escalating tension, Norwood swiftly intervened.
âAlright, alright, enough with your relationship woes.
Letâs drink and enjoy ourselves.
