Brian’s Lips pressed into a firm Line as he responded, “Mom, rest well. For the record, I won’t divorce
Rosalynn.”
“You-” Noemi’s words were cut short as she watched her son’s retreating figure, her anger still burning.
Quick to soothe her, Selina assured, “Try not to get too worked up.
Some matters require a more gradual approach. Deanna, stay here with your mother. I need to have a
word with Brian.”
Deanna gave a nod. “Alright.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeft alone, Noemi sank into the couch, her eyes filled with resentment.
“Why can’t your brother just listen? I’m truly fed up.”
Sitting beside her, Deanna hesitated before attempting to soothe her mother. “Mom, try not to let it get
to you. In the time I’ve spent around her, Rosalynn doesn’t seem as awful as I initially thought.”
This drew a frown from Noemi. “Are you defending her now? Has she cast some kind of spell over you
too? You were the one who showed me that video. She was unfaithful to your brother. Doesn’t that
speak volumes about her character?”
Caught off guard, Deanna offered a sheepish smile. “About the video, didn’t Barlow already provide an
explanation? I’m not under any spell, Mom, I’m just telling it as I see it.”
Seething, Noemi snapped, “Enough. That woman is far too cunning. ALL I want is for them to get a
divorce.”
Realizing she had only stoked her mother’s anger, Deanna clamped her mouth shut.
Noemi cast a glance at her daughter before asking, “What’s the deal with you and that guy? Is he
aware of who you are? Is he using you?”
Deanna blinked, realizing her mother was referring to Keegan.
She hurried to clarify, “No. Our meeting was purely coincidental, twice in fact…”
She then recounted her encounters with Keegan to Noemi.

doesn’t seem to fancy that wealthy Lady,” Deanna reasoned.
“Perhaps she was too insistent, so he sought out others as a diversion.
He doesn’t come off as avaricious. If he were, he wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to avoid the
wealthy Lady’s affections.”
Noemi scrutinized her. “Deanna, you’ve only met him twice, yet you’re defending him. Have you fallen
for him?”
Caught off guard, Deanna hastened to explain, “Mom, you’re jumping to conclusions. I’m merely stating
the facts!”
Noemi scoffed, “All those who orbit around Rosalynn are not to be trifled with. Keep your distance from
now on.”
