Chapter 1969

"Is everything alright, Rosalynn?"

Rosalynn's tone was gentle as she spoke, "I saw the news today and it reminded me of Liam. How is he doing?"

"He's doing great. I just spoke with his foster family this afternoon, everything is fine. You don't have to worry.' The director quickly reassured her.

"That's good to hear.' Rosalynn lowered her eyes, then continued in a calm tone, "Wayne put a lot of effort into making sure Liam could study abroad, so I hope he does well."b2 The director blinked in surprise. Wayne had previously told him not to discuss this matter with Rosalynn. He had assumed that Rosalynn was unaware of it.

"Please rest assured, Liam never lets anyone down. He'll live up to everyone's expectations.' The director quickly reassured her with confidence.

Rosalynn remained silent as the director continued to praise Liam, from his initial underdog status at competitions to winning gold medals, and his perseverance during exams despite being ill, consistently ranking first.

After the director finished his praise, Rosalynn finally spoke up, "Liam is a great kid, I've always known that. I appreciate you looking out for him while he's away. Feel free to reach out to me if you need anything."

"You and Wayne are truly wonderful!" The director choked up, "You always said that Liam saved Ivy's life, but you two have changed Liam's life completely."

"You're being too kind." Rosalynn said, half lowering her eyes as she remembered Liam's determined figure at the airport.

What had Wayne done to convince Liam to go abroad?

Rosalynn didn't plan to guess the answer.

After hanging up, Rosalynn went directly upstairs.

Wayne had left his study door half open, so that he would know when Rosalynn was coming upstairs.

As soon as she entered, Wayne stepped out of his study.

"I had a long chat with Paige today.' Rosalynn looked up at him and said.

Wayne had never seen her look so serious before.

"What's wrong?" Wayne asked softly.

"What did you do to force Liam to leave?" Rosalynn asked directly, not beating around the bush.

Wayne was taken aback, then lowered his eyes, "Who told you?"

"I have a brain, I can figure things out myself!" Rosalynn's anger flared up, "Answer me, how did you force Liam out!" Wayne remained silent. A chill ran down Rosalynn's spine.

She remembered Wayne's past ruthless tactics, his threats, his crippling of Noah Holland, and the dirt he had dug up on the Jared Group... "He saved your daughter's life! And he's just a kid! Why would you do this?" Rosalynn finally exploded, "Wayne, have you lost your mind?"

"Because his presence is a risk to Ivy!" Wayne replied, "I won't allow any risks to be around you or our children!"

"A risk?" Rosalynn stared at Wayne in disbelief, "How is Liam a risk? What sort of risk are you talking about?"

Rosalynn suddenly remembered the incident before Liam was sent abroad.

She looked at Wayne in disbelief, "You didn't do this because of the time Ivy snuck out to play and almost drowned, did you?"

"Yes." Wayne kept his eyes lowered.

He didn't think he had done anything wrong.

But he didn't want to face Rosalynn's accusations and anger because of an outsider.
