Ms. Albinia was arguing with Mike. "Did I say something wrong? If she's this bossy to an outsider like me, I can only imagine how she treats Wayne at home!!"

"I swear, I'm going to knock your teeth out today!" Mike was seething.

"Enough." Rosalynn's voice came from behind him.

Mike turned around, clearly frustrated. "But Ms. Gabriella..."

Rosalynn calmly walked in, positioning herself between the two heated individuals, then turned to Ms. Albinia, who was red-faced with anger.

"I know why Wayne fell ill. You don't have to think of it as a weapon you can use against me," she said, her gaze steady on Ms. Albinia. "As for Wayne, whether it was ten years ago, six years ago, or now, my conscience is clear."d2

Rosalynn was never sure who was in the wrong, but one thing she knew for sure, it wasn't her.

When Wayne treated her as a stand-in lover, she took care of him dutifully, in both his personal and professional life. She never defied his orders.

Later, when she gave him a chance, and he squandered it, she didn't regret leaving with their child. As for what happened to Wayne afterwards, that was the result of his own actions.

She was not at fault. She just wanted to live freely with her children.

As for their reunion...

She felt she'd been generous enough, not tormenting Wayne but forgiving him quickly.

Wayne's illness was a shared misfortune. But, she was sensible enough not to let it weigh her down. She wanted nothing more than for Wayne to recover under Dr. Lange's care.

That was all.

"Bullshit!" Ms. Albinia laughed. "I really don't understand why Wayne is so attached to such a cold woman like you. You don't love anyone, you just love yourself."

"Rose!!" Penn shouted, grabbing Rose's arm to leave. "Let's go!"

"Penn, let go!" Ms. Albinia struggled.

Rosalynn's voice cut through the chaos again, "No matter how much you struggle, going to the company I arranged for you to work at is the best option. If you refuse to cooperate, I have other, less pleasant options for you. Weigh your choices."

Penn looked at Rosalynn, a mix of emotions on his face.

Rosalynn met his gaze. "Dr. Lange, it's time for work."

Rosalynn's unflustered demeanor carried a commanding presence.

Penn thought she was angry, but later, Penn realized just how strong Rosalynn was. Even if Rose had caused chaos, it wouldn't have affected Rosalynn's mood.

Ms. Albinia did go to H Country. She left that same afternoon.

She didn't let Penn escort her, choosing to travel alone.

On the third day, Rosalynn met with a mysterious guest in Munich.

That night, Rosalynn's private jet carried the guest and her team to a small town near H City. Kate Scott and her husband personally picked them up from the airport. That same day, Wayne still refused to eat.

In the evening, Penn brought a letter and a palm-sized photo album, about two centimeters thick.

Wayne, who had been as lifeless as a dried log, barely looked up.

When Penn sat down next to him, a strange thought flashed through Wayne's mind - to choke Penn as soon as he sat down!

But as the thought formed, a gentle fragrance wafted into his nostrils.

Wayne felt as though he'd snapped back to reality. He quickly turned to look at what Penn was handing him. "Ms. Jared wrote you a letter and asked me to give this to you." Wayne grabbed the letter, as his hands trembling, he opened it.

"Ivy took a lot of photos during our last camping trip. They're all in this album.

I'm going back to H City, and I'll visit when I can."
