Chapter 973

The next morning, Rosalynn woke up sweaty. It wasn't that the weather was unbearably hot, but Wayne had sneaked into her room at some point and wrapped her up in his arms from behind.

Since the time Cory and Ivy ceased sharing a bed with her, she had refrained from locking her door at night, dreading that the children might awaken and not replace their mother. This inadvertently facilitated Wayne's ease of entry and departure.

Just as Rosalynn was about to leave Wayne's embrace, he woke up, and without a word, pulled her back in.

"It's so hot!" Rosalynn elbowed him a little.

Wayne grunted in response, then let go of Rosalynn and got up. She was surprised at how obedient he was being today.

But then Wayne turned on the air conditioning, lay back down, and used his arms and legs to pull her back into his arms. Rosalynn:"

"Let go of me!" Rosalynn elbowed Wayne again. "I need to get up."

"It's only a little after six... Let's sleep a bit more!" Wayne wouldn't let go, nuzzling his nose against Rosalynn's neck.

"Xenia... Steven's mom.... is going to the hospital for a check-up today. I need to go see her," Rosalynn said, her palm on Wayne's face. "Why not let someone else handle it? I don't want my wife to be so tired," Wayne said, not wanting to let her go.

"No can do!"

Wayne seemed helpless.

"Anyway, you can put everyone, even someone you barely know like Xenia, ahead of me!" He finally let her go after saying that.

Rosalynn sat up and saw him turn away from her, his back facing her. She found it amusing and lightly poked Wayne's back, saying, "President Silverman, I don't mean to be rude, but don't you think you've been acting like a little woman lately?"

Wayne ignored her.

Rosalynn didn't try to cheer him up, instead she got up, put on her slippers, went to the wardrobe to change, and then went to wash up.

As she was about to leave the bathroom, Wayne came over.

"Not sleeping anymore?" Rosalynn asked.

Wayne didn't answer. As Rosalynn walked out, Wayne's arm circled her waist and placed her on the bathroom counter. "Way... mm..."

Before Rosalynn could say anything, Wayne sealed her mouth with a kiss. Occasionally, he would gently bite her lips.

Wayne released his hold on Rosalynn after their prolonged kiss, yet he maintained his grip on her waist. Gazing into her eyes, he tenderly planted a few more gentle kisses upon her lips.

"We promised Cory and Ivy that we'd go buy camping stuff together today. Thought you could come too," he said softly, clearly disappointed. "When are you going?" Rosalynn asked. "We planned to go after Ivy walks the dog." Wayne replied.

"Let's change it to the afternoon, and I'll go with you guys," Rosalynn agreed readily.

"How about we pick you up, have lunch together, and then go shopping?"

"I'll let you know when I get to the hospital," Rosalynn said, leaving her options open.
