Chapter 468
The scent of coffee beans filled her nose, making it quite enjoyable.
“In grandma’s will, there’s also a part for you,” Wayne answered.
In fact, he never really understood why his strict and serious grandma, who seemed to dislike everyone, was so fond of Rosa. But now, he sort of got it.
His wife just had that kind of charm that made people like her involuntarily and become attached to her.
“Oh, that’s for Rosalynn, right?” Rosalynn lowered her eyelids, and the coffee before her eyes steamed up a layer of white fog.
Wayne paused for a moment. Then, lowering his eyelids, he said, “You are Rosalynn.”
“Legally, Rosalynn is dead,” Rosalynn said flatly. “I won’t go, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
“It’s the jewelry collection she gathered over the years,” Wayne whispered.
Rosalynn’s fingertips stiffened slightly.
She remembered one year attending an elder’s birthday party with Wayne in the Silverman family.
She happened to overhear Maddie and several other ladies.chatting.
One of them mentioned the grandmother’s jewelry collection, “You’re gonna inherit all those jewels when she passes, right? Be sure to invite over to see them!”
Maddie replied nonchalantly, “She said long ago that those jewels are for my son’s wife.”
“Wayne’s wife? Isn’t that favoritism?” someone else commented.
Maddie was clearly displeased, but she feigned indifference, “I don’t lack jewelry. I can buy whatever I like. If she wants to give it to my son’s I’m happy.”
Remembering that, Rosalynn finished her coffe and put down the cup, “I’m full. Let’s go.”
Wayne escorted Rosalynn to the parking lot, the ancient tree still there, rustling its leaves.
“Drive safe.” Wayne reminded her.
“Okay,” Rosalynn got into the car and rolled the window down just before leaving, warning Wayne again, “Don’t pull any tricks again; otherwise, you’ll have no chance!”
“Understood!” Wayne nodded immediately.
He looked as behaved as a kindergarten kid waiting for his teacher’s praise.
Rosalynn: “…”
It was difficult for her to keep getting angry at him. Where did he learn this trick to act so obedient?
Hmm… It somehow seemed familiar.
Thinking about it, Rosalynn drove down the hill and returned to the studio.
Meanwhile, online discussions about Wayne’s new wife continued to heat up.
And the studio was also buzzing with gossip.
When Rosalynn returned, everyone who had been discussing the matter immediately dispersed.
Rosalynn strode straight toward her office. Arriving at the door, she pondered for a moment and then went back, saying, “Wayne used to be my fiancé. The late Natalie was very kind to me and someone I respected. I went yesterday also to say my farewell. That’s all there is to it. You guys don’t have to make assumptions. The FreshBite project is due in two days, have you all finished your work?”
“I’m just about to wrap things up!”
“Same here!”
“Good, let’s have a meeting in the conference room at 4 pm,” Rosalynn finished and confidently headed back to her office.
Cutside, there was a brief silence that lasted for several seconds.
Then, people started cursing in their native languages, expressing disbelief.
“Fiancé?!”
“I thought he was just her ex at most!”
“Now I see why Bane Corporation’s Oilvia has such animosity towards Gabriella Jared!”
“Damn! Olivia is the current girlfriend, right? No way, we can’t let Gabriella Jared lose to an ex’s current girlfriend. l.et’s get moving, everyone! We gotta win that FreshBite project!”
