"Alright, I'll have someone send it to you guys tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Paige felt like all her strength had been drained, and she flopped onto the bed with her arms wide open.
She didn't want to be a burden to Baillie,
And she didn't want to see that look in Baillie's eyes, the one Logan and Peyton had when they saw her as trouble.
So she had to deal with all this herself.
There used to be a popular saying,
"If you can't hold onto the sand, just let it go."
Back then, she thought it was cool.
But as time went by, when she truly understood the meaning of the phrase, she realized how hurtful it was.
After a pleasant dinner, Rosalynn was getting ready to visit Steven and his family.
"Do you really not want me to come?" Wayne stood in front of the car, frowning.
Rosalynn shook her head: "You don't need to get involved with those people."
"You want to protect me?" Wayne insisted on getting a straight answer.
Before Rosalynn could say anything, the car window rolled down.
Ivy's little hand was on the window, looking at her dad and then her mom, "Mommy, are you guys going on a date?"
Rosalynn thought: "What?"
"Go ahead, Laura will take good care of us!" Ivy said.
"No date." Rosalynn tapped her nose, "Mommy has work to do, Daddy will go back with you guys."
"Can't he go to where you're going for work?" Ivy asked seriously.
When Rosalynn arrived, Xenia hurriedly stood up and said, "Ma'am, I'm sorry you had to come all the way..."
Xenia was only a few years older than Rosalynn, but years of hard work and illness had aged her considerably.
"Steven saved my son's life, it's only right for me to visit." Rosalynn said gently, "Steven mentioned that you're not in good health. Did you feel uncomfortable on the trip here?"
"Everything's fine." Xenia said with an embarrassed smile, "It was my first time on a plane, and you even bought me a first-class ticket, so how could I be uncomfortable?"
"Let's go inside and talk."
A moment later, Steven's family and Rosalynn were all seated in the living room.
"Ma'am, I'm so grateful to you for saving me," Sheila said, tears welling up in her eyes. "If it weren't for you, they would have taken me to Southeast Asia tomorrow."
"Don't worry, they won't bother you anymore," Rosalynn said softly.
"Yes!" Sheila nodded through her tears.
