Brian tapped his slender fingers against the tabletop.
âSo, youâre having dinner with Keegan? Was there some business to be discussed?â
âNo.
We just finished a small act, after which he invited me to dinner,â Rosalynn clarified, sneaking a peek at Keegan, engrossed in the menu across from her.
âAct? What act?â Brianâs heart pounded at her words.
âWell, here is the thingâ¦â
Rosalynn outlined the recent events.
Brian listened carefully and gradually became relaxed.
He believed that Rosalynn and Keegan were merely friends.
âItâs about time Keegan found a girlfriend,â Brian remarked casually.
âIâve been telling him the same.

âBy the way, isnât it past midnight in Folkava? Shouldnât you be in bed?â
Sensing the concern in Rosalynnâs voice, Brianâs smile grew even brighter.
âIâve been dying to see you.
Iâm trying to wrap things up here as soon as I can.

Touched, Rosalynn replied, âTake care of yourself, alright? Donât overdo it.

I need to save all my energy.

Rosalynn rolled her eyes.

âIâm hanging up now,â she finally managed to say.
âYouâre not going to say goodnight?â Brian asked gently.
Despite her annoyance, Rosalynn muttered a quick goodnight before disconnecting the call.
As the call ended, Keegan looked at Rosalynn, her smile seeming brighter than before.
âThings between you and Brian seem to be going well, huh? Eleanor isnât an issue anymore?â
Rosalynn took a sip of her drink, not saying a word.
Her relationship with Brian was a complex knot she was still trying to untangle.
âWas he keeping tabs on your schedule? Wouldnât he be upset if he finds out you pretended to be my girlfriend?â
Rosalynn turned to look at him, an eyebrow raised.
âAre you scared?â
