Chapter 749
Rosalynn was burning the midnight oil at the office. Just as she was about to knock off, she received a message
from Brodie.
“Aunt Alyssa has returned to the company. She said she was sorry for offending you before and asked me to pass
on a set of pearl jewellery from her collection to you!”
Rosalynn gave a faint smile and replied, “Tell Ms. Alyssa thanks for me.”
She didn’t turn it down.
This set of pearls was Alyssa’s way of saying they were square. If she didn’t accept it, Alyssa would feel guilty. It
would also be awkward the next time they would have to work together.

leaving only
Lola.
“Gabriella, are you leaving?” Lola asked, standing up.
“Yeah, why are you still here?” Rosalynn said, confidently carrying her briefcase in one hand and her other hand in
her coat pocket.
Lola pointed at her computer, “Just finished some reports, I’ll be heading out soon too.”
Rosalynn glanced at the clock, “Let’s leave together, I’ll drop you off.”
Lola was staying at a hotel not far from Rosalynn’s place so she could be on hand in case Rosalynn needed her.
“Alright!” Lola nodded, quickly packing up her laptop.
Just as they were leaving the office, they saw a black car parked outside with a casually dressed Wayne leaning
against the passenger side, engrossed in his phone.
As soon as Rosalynn stepped out, he looked up and waved.
“Looks like I missed my chance for a ride.” Lola murmured.
Rosalynn handed her car keys to Lola. “Just drive it back in the morning.”
“Got it!” Lola said, grinning as she took the keys.
She jogged down the stairs, waving at Wayne as she passed, “President Silverman!”
Wayne nodded.
By then, Rosalynn had reached Wayne. She glanced at the car and then at Wayne, “Are Cory and Ivy here too?”
“Yes.” Wayne said, nodding. “We decided to have a big dinner tonight, so I came to pick you up.”

Wayne took her briefcase and put it in the passenger seat before Rosalynn got into the car. He followed suit.
Once they were on their way, Rosalynn sighed, “If there’s room in the front, why did you squeeze into the back?”
She didn’t want Cory and Ivy to hear her complain about their dad, so she whispered to Wayne,
Wayne chuckled as he seized the opportunity to take her hand and hold it tight in his.
Rosalynn was speechless.
“Mum, Max ate a lot more today than yesterday, look!” Ivy, oblivious to her parents‘ little gesture, excitedly showed
Rosalynn a video of Max eating.
Rosalynn took this opportunity to withdraw her hand from Wayne’s grip, pretending nothing happened, and looked
at her phone. “Looks like he’s a lot more spirited today than yesterday!”
“The vet said Max can go home with his godmother in a few days!”
Wayne planned to have Max stay with Baillie Scott first, then move him to a doghouse in Moonlit Lake once they’ve
settled in there.
