Chapter 1332
Not long after, she was coaxed back to bed by her mother
Before going to sleep, Ivy asked somewhat puzzled, “Mom, can I call him if I miss him?”
“Not this time, honey. Daddy’s gone on a really important mission. We won’t be able to contact him until it’s all done and dusted.” Rosalynn gently replied. “Will you miss him, mom?” the little girl asked.
Rosalynn felt a twinge of pain in her heart. She nodded, “Of course, I will.”
“He’d be over the moon to hear that. Mom, can I tell you a secret? My brother and I were planning to start calling him dad from the next year!”
Hearing this, Rosalynn’s emotions went haywire.
She soothed the little girl a few times, then got up and left her room.
Upon reaching the door and closing it, she covered her heart, and tears just wouldn’t stop rolling down her cheeks.
“Mrs. Silverman…”
Molly approached her, looking a bit lost seeing Rosalynn like this.”
Rosalynn looked at her and managed to pull herself together.
She squatted down and gratefully told Molly, “I heard you saved Cory and Ivy. Molly, I can’t thank you enough.
“It’s part of my job, Molly replied, Hesitating a bit, she carefully wiped away Rosalynn’s tears, “Is It because my dad was too late?”
Molly had already learned about Wayne from Felix.
Rosalynn shook her head, “Molly, go rest a bit. We’re safe now, she softly said, “Let me handle things in the coming days, then I’ll reward you, okay?”
“Okay.” Molly nodded, then slowly made her way downstairs, looking back every few steps.
Felix was standing at the staircase. Seeing Molly coming down, he quickly asked, “How is she?”
“She’s crying, Molly replied, head down.
Felix sighed. He didn’t tell Molly that Rosalynn had originally planned to die with Wayne.
“Alright kiddo, go to sleep. I’ll keep watch here Felix gently said.
Molly nodded, feeling reassured with her dad around.
And so, she obediently went to her room to sleep.
After Molly left, Rosalynn went to Cory’s room.
Seemingly walling for her, Cory looked up immediately when she entered, “Is Ivy asleep?”
Rosalynn nodded, then went to sit across from Cory.
“Was Wayne kidnapped?” Cory asked.
He had immediately contacted Jaime upon returning to his room, hoping to find out something.
But Jaime deflected the conversation as soon as Wayne was mentioned, saying he was already at the airport and would be in H Country by daylight.

Seeing Rosalynn silent, Cory continued, “Mom, even if you don’t tell me, I can find out through the internet.”
Rosalynn looked at him, and choking up, she told Cory everything that happened today.
By the end, Cory was almost in a daze.
“Is Wayne dead?” he mumbled.
“If we haven’t found his body, we can’t say he’s dead for sure!‘ Rosalynn Immediately said, “Remember, Calvin was also belleved to be dead at first, but Isn’t he alive and well now? Cory, you have to know, your dad loves us a lot, I refuse to believe he’d just leave us!”
Cory looked at her.
The child who’s always been good at controlling his emotions was silent for a moment, then tears started flowing down his cheeks.
He opened his arms and hugged Rosalynn tightly.
“Mom, I regret it… I didn’t get a chance to call him dad…
With that, Cory started sobbing in Rosalynn’s arms.
