“Delicious.”
Rosalynn smiled and gently placed some food on Brian’s plate. “Thank you for cooking for us.”
Brian arched an eyebrow but remained silent. His hand found its way to her thigh, his touch gentle as

Brian listened attentively, stealing occasional glances at Rosalynn while sipping his wine. He felt like he
was getting to know her on a deeper level.
“Brian, Rosalynn has been clever since she was a child. Countless men have sought her hand in

onto his grudge against Brian’s past indifference towards Rosalynn.
Then, he turned his attention to Rosalynn and inquired, “Rosalynn, what was the name of the young

“I believe you’re feeling a tad guilty.”
On this occasion, Rosalynn genuinely experienced a foot cramp. Swiftly, she slid her hand under the
table and grasped Brian’s.
