The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love
Chapter 2091

Wayne had always known what his foolish cousin was up to.

Murdering him was out of the question, but becoming the murdered, that was much simpler.

As he sank into the water, the feeling of asphyxiation gave Wayne a sense of unprecedented ease and freedom.

His memories stopped there for a moment.

Then he remembered, he had met this boy a very long time ago.

In that man-made lake, the boy was swimming towards him, as if inviting him to journey to a distant place together.d2

Just then, a petite figure jumped into the lake, scattering the boy's image, and swam towards him.

From that day on, Wayne's life had found a new purpose. And the boy who had only appeared for a moment at the brink of death was forgotten deep in his consciousness. After reading the diary, Rosalynn was unable to calm her mind for a long time.

She felt a raging fire in her heart, yet she didn't know where to direct it!

Eventually, she closed the diary and took a Ziplock bag from a storage box, putting the diary inside.

After a brief silence, she clenched her fist and pounded the steering wheel.

Right then, Penn called.

Rosalynn composed herself and answered, "I was just about to call you..."

"Something up?" Penn asked.

"You go first." Rosalynn's head was buzzing with frustration, so she decided to let Penn speak first while she gathered her thoughts.

"We've been talking all morning." Penn said, "It went smoothly. He now not only knows that the boy is an illusion, but also why he exists, and who he really is."

"Who is he?" Rosalynn immediately asked.

"He's Wayne, but also Ayden." Penn sighed, "He merged the most painful parts of both their lives, and that's how the boy was born."

Rosalynn simply listened, feeling as though her heart was being torn apart.

"That's a good thing." Penn continued, "At least for now, things are better than I expected on all fronts."

"Penn, did he... mention the diary to you?" Rosalynn asked.

Penn was taken aback, "You know about the diary? When did he tell you?"

Rosalynn took a deep breath, "He didn't tell me. I was here at the vault today and found out that a safety deposit box was under my name. I thought Wayne might have put something in there, so I checked it out..."

"Is it Ayden's diary?" Penn asked.

"Yes." Rosalynn confirmed.

"This diary is a huge shock to Wayne. He doesn't remember most of the content, only mentioned to me that... Natalie had been abusing Ayden and punishing him harshly..."

"Mm-hmm." Rosalynn found it hard to breathe.

The illusion was the combination of their most painful experiences.

So that's why Wayne said the boy was always being abused... Rosalynn knew Wayne was never abused as a child...

Wait a minute...

"Penn, did Natalie ever hit Wayne?" Rosalynn asked in a low voice.

Penn was momentarily baffled, "She shouldn't... have, right?"
