The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love novel Chapter 2221

"Where's your car?" Rosalynn asked as she glanced at her wristwatch, the silver band catching the light.

"Parking's hard downtown, so I've been cabbing it to work lately," Rose replied with a shrug, a hint of frustration in her voice.

Rosalynn checked the time. "Well, it looks like you're crashing here again tonight. Who knows when you'll get that sorted."

A grateful smile spread across Rose's face, though she feigned reluctance. "Oh, I couldn't impose..."

"You coming or not?" Rosalynn cut in, a playful edge to her voice.

Of course, Rose followed. Before her business trip, she had returned to her stark, impersonal apartment from the serene Moonlit Lake, and she was upset about it.d2

Paige and her husband had taken their kid to visit Grandma in the hospital.

Hilaria, Cory, and Ivy were out visiting an old friend and wouldn't be back tonight.

Jaime and Jacob had left the lake after the holidays.

So, it was just Rose and Rosalynn for dinner.

"By the way, Madeleine Winters' condition has improved a lot. She's lucid most of the time now and refuses to see her father and brother. She probably knows they're up to no good," Rose mentioned casually as they ate.

Rosalynn didn't look up. "Do they visit her often?"

Rose shook her head, her expression one of disdain. "Only twice."
