"Mom, if we don't spill the beans, she'll keep chasing after Mrs. Silverman. It's gonna blow up in our faces sooner or later!" Osborn said, a touch of exasperation in his voice.
If it wasn't for Zenobia, things wouldn't be so messy!
"Mom, you knew about this?" Zenobia was even more shocked. She couldn't believe it, "You all knew he was married and still kept me in the dark? What the hell were you thinking?"
"Zenobia, listen to me. His wife has another man now. And he's no longer Wayne, he's your fiancé!" Viola quickly reassured her, "Osborn and I have decided, once Alan wakes up, we'll take him away from here, far from Bane Corporation and the Silverman family!"
Osborn looked conflicted, but he didn't argue with Viola.
There was this nagging reluctance deep within him. The idea of handing Wayne back to Rosalynn was like a knife to his heart.
Zenobia slowly calmed down, "How long has it been since Wayne's accident, and his wife already has another man?"
"I saw it with my own eyes when I went to H Country to find her!" Viola declared firmly, "A man came to pick her up from work, and they looked close."
In reality, all Viola saw was Evan opening the car door for Rosalynn. They didn't even touch each other.
"That's so shameless!" Zenobia didn't like Rosalynn to begin with, hearing her mother's words, she disliked her even more, "She doesn't deserve my Alan!"
"Zenobia, if you really want to be with Alan, then listen to Osborn. Stop messing with her," Osborn said seriously, "From now on, I'll handle any dealings with them. Once Alan wakes up, you guys should leave the island, got it?"
This time, Zenobia didn't insist on holding on to her father's hotel.
She nodded without hesitation.
She won't let a woman like that tarnish Alan!
"I thought you'd put up more resistance to our visit, but it seems you're being quite cooperative, Ms. Jared." The marine biologist brought by the islanders and influencers was a slightly overweight, middle-aged Latino man.
"Mister, my daughter is a huge fan of your 'Marine Life Encyclopedia' published ten years ago. I've always hoped to meet you, so I could give her a chance to meet you as well," Rosalynn said gently.
Hearing this, the professor smiled happily, "Sure, I'd be delighted to meet your little angel!"
As they were chatting, the island residents and volunteers came over.
Rosalynn looked up and saw the man who almost got a boot to the face from Felix last night.
"Professor Welson, you have to help us protect our home!" Before Osborn could say anything, a middle-aged man behind him rushed toward Professor Welson, tears in his eyes.
