The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1986

Rosalynn's hand hovered in midair, frozen.

Wayne's reaction was instinctively extreme.

Realizing he had overreacted, Wayne stepped back. "Honey, I'm fine. If anything was wrong, I'd tell you." He cautiously approached Rosalynn again.

"I want to see your wound," Rosalynn insisted.

Why wouldn't she suspect anything?

Wayne was the kind of man who, if he stubbed his toe, would make a melodramatic scene in front of her.d2

His wrist had been cut.

He should've been the first to rush to her, shouting so she could shower him with sympathy.

But since his injury, even when she asked about it, he'd never let her see it.

If it was a minor issue, Wayne wouldn't have hidden it from her.

Wayne remained silent. An unspoken stand-off ensued between them.

Finally, Wayne lowered his gaze, "I didn't want you to worry unnecessarily."

"But hiding it from me is what's causing me to worry!" Rosalynn said sternly. "I'll ask one last time, Wayne. Let me see your wound."

Sighing in resignation, Wayne rolled up his sleeve, revealing his bandaged wrist to Rosalynn.

Wayne was in a panic.

"Look at the mess you've made. She's found out about your secrets."

His own voice suddenly echoed behind him.

Wayne's body stiffened.

Ignoring the voice, he continued to comfort Rosalynn. "I promise, I'll take you to the park to see what happened tomorrow. Or remember that renowned psychiatrist you met last time? We could see him. He can assess whether I'm okay."

"Fool, what are you thinking? Do you know anything about that psychiatrist? What if he's out to get us? Are you so desperate to please this woman that you've lost all sense?"

The man who looked exactly like Wayne, dressed in the same crisp black suit, his hair meticulously groomed, continued his tirade.
