The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love

The plane touched down in H City.

Rosalynn had wrapped up her work for the day and was now glancing at her watch, timing her departure to pick up her kids from school.

She made her way to the parking lot. Rose, unable to contain her frustration any longer, caught up with her, "Rosalynn, what is your deal, seriously?"

Such a tedious way to start a conversation. Rosalynn stopped and faced Rose. "What's up?"

"You keep me around, but you totally ignore me!" Rose's eyes brimmed with tears. "I knew it! You're just trying to humiliate me, aren't you?"

Rosalynn's lips curled into a sardonic smile. "Ms. Albinia, didn't you always preach about how a woman should behave? I've been treating you exactly how you insisted. Now you feel ignored?"d2 Rose was taken aback. "Don't twist my words! When did I ever ask for this kind of treatment?"

"Didn't you say a woman should be modest? Not to try and stand out among men? To not be so assertive?" Rosalynn's voice was calm but sharp. "I've been going out of my way to ensure you remained 'invisible' and 'non-existent' today, and now you're not happy? So, other women should be quiet and unobtrusive, but it's different for you?"

Rose went pale, her mouth opened in an attempt to rebuff Rosalynn, but no words managed to escape her lips.. Yet she felt that Rosalynn was wrong, and her treatment today was wrong.

"Ms. Albinia, regardless of gender, everyone in this world is seeking respect. Whether you're a homemaker or a career woman," Rosalynn said coldly. "You're feeling uncomfortable today because you feel disrespected. But if it weren't for the women before us who were assertive among men, carving a path for us, we wouldn't even be talking about respect. Your entitlements today would be nothing more than a pipe dream."

"Nonsense!" Rose hissed through clenched teeth.

Rosalynn chuckled. "Let's consider one thing-if everyone acted as you suggest, do you think you'd have the privilege of attending a prestigious university? You might have been discarded at birth for your gender, left in some orphanage. Stop parading around with your antiquated mindset. If you want respect from me, show some real merit. Otherwise, you'll remain just a decoration until Wayne comes home." With that, Rosalynn got into her car and drove away.

Rose stood there, her mind a jumble of confusion stirred by Rosalynn's words. That wasn't right.

Her mother had taught her differently... that a woman should be ladylike, that a woman should know her place...

The chill of the half-open parking lot seeped in, and Rose shivered with more than just the cold.

Rosalynn's mood hadn't been the best on her way to pick up the kids.

She had called Penn to update him on the situation.

Wayne was cooperating with his therapy, but when it came to his and Natalie's issues, he just drew a blank.

His memory was like a massive, incomplete jigsaw puzzle; the pieces involving his grandmother remained shrouded in darkness.

Rosalynn shared the incident of the slap.

Penn and Rosalynn were on the same page. - that diary was the medium through which Natalie manipulated Wayne's psyche, and there was no longer any need for physical altercation.

The agonizing words left by his father were manifesting themselves onto young Wayne.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Ending the call, Rosalynn was almost at Ivy's school.

She took a deep breath to shake off the irritation, wanting to appear upbeat for her kids.

After Rosalynn left, Jacob's assistant hurriedly caught up with him. "Sanderson made a call to the house. He wants to meet with your father."

"Okay."
