There was no one outside the door, Evan was already gone.
Wayne was pretty happy about that.
He subconsciously glanced at Rosalynn.
She walked forward with a cold expression, no extra emotions.
"I thought he had more determination," Wayne mocked.
Rosalynn ignored him.
With one in front and the other in the back, they walked to the elevator.
Wayne's phone rang.
He looked down at it, and his expression visibly turned colder.
It was from Maddie.
He hung up directly.
The elevator door opened, and two kids were roughhousing and rushed out, heading straight for Rosalynn.
"Watch out!" Wayne wrapped his arms around her and protected her.
"Sorry! Our kids were playing and didn't see you!" The children's parent immediately apologized.
Wayne's face darkened.
Both little boys quickly apologized too.
Rosalynn said gently, "You need to be more careful in the future. If you really hurt someone, your parents will be in big trouble!"
"We know..." The two children pouted in reply.
After the children's parent apologized several times and scolded the kids, they left.
"Alright, let go of me."
Wayne's hand was still holding Rosalynn's waist.
He hadn't noticed until she said something.
When she mentioned it... Wayne held her even tighter. "No."
Rosalynn was speechless. What the heck was going on with him?
In the past, even in front of outsiders, or people like Jacob who knew about their relationship, he would never show any intimate moves.
"Get Wayne on the call. I know you two are together." Maddie’s voice sounded furious, as if she wanted to eat Rosalynn alive.
"Alright."
Rosalynn handed the phone to Wayne without looking at him.
Maddie’s tone made her suddenly feel like she was stripped naked and left on the street in shame.
Wayne took the phone.
"Mom..."
"Ms. Rosso had a car accident, get your ass back here now!"
"Car accident?" Wayne's hand on Rosalynn's waist loosened.
The elevator just reached the ground floor.
Rosalynn let out a soft breath and walked out of the elevator.
Then she stood by the elevator, waiting for Wayne to come out and give her back the phone.
In a moment, she heard Wayne saying, "I'll be right there."
