Cory, with his head drooping, closed his eyes and asked, "Everything went smoothly?"
"Yeah, super smooth, all sorted out," Rosalynn replied while walking towards the room. "Wait 'til tomorrow when you wake up, and I'll tell you everything.okay? Now go to sleep."
"Alright. "
Cory mumbled, sinking back into his dreams.
Rosalynn put Cory back to bed, kissed his forehead, and went back to the living room to put the other child to bed.
Ivy leaned against Wayne's arm, not daring to move.
Rosalynn came out, quickly picked up Ivy, and walked into the room.
Wayne hurriedly got up and followed her like a little puppy.
Just as Rosalynn was about to put Ivy back to bed, Ivy woke up.
"Mommy?" Ivy made sure it was Rosalynn who had come back.
She was about to fall back to bed but clung to Rosalynn like a koala, crying.
"What's wrong?"
Rosalynn held her, gently patting her back.
Ivy buried her face in Rosalynn's neck and cried but didn't say what was wrong.
Wayne stood there, feeling a bit helpless.
After he returned, Ivy seemed normal. She even fed him dinner and voluntarily studied for two hours. So why did she suddenly?
"Still scared?" Rosalynn asked.
Ivy nodded, and hugged even tighter.
Rosalynn looked at Wayne, who was clearly clueless.
"Why did you steal a kiss?" Rosalynn asked, exasperated.
"If I don't steal one, they won't let me," Wayne muttered, finally sighing.
"Have you asked?" Rosalynn questioned.
Wayne was stunned: "No... I haven't..."
"How can you know if the kids won't let you if you don't ask?" Rosalynn was still speechless and decided not to continue this topic. "Your people have reported the situation over there, right?"
"Yeah." Wayne's expression became more solemn. "I've heard from Granny Silverman that Ollie is a bit shady. He's been tolerated a lot because he's a cousin. But I never thought."
"He's dead," Rosalynn said. "Not long after I left, he was killed by Drew."
"He deserved it!" Wayne said solemnly. "And Drew."
"Leave it to the judge." Rosalynn lowered her eyelids. "We also need to re-investigate the chemical pollution compensation case. Ollie couldn't have done it alone."
