Chapter 2224
"Let's talk about it after Monday," Rosalynn answered.
Paige shook her head, saying helplessly, "You keep spoiling him. You actually need to discuss such a small matter with him? Doesn't he always listen to you?"
"Speaking of spoiling husbands, I think you, Ms. Owens, come second to none," Rosalynn said teasingly, tilting her head as she peered at Paige.
Paige and Baillie were truly a match made in heaven. Neither of them was content with just being loved; they both devoted themselves fully to doting on each other. They were always quick to sense each other's needs and even quicker to fulfill them.
To be fair, Rosalynn had learned a lot from watching Paige and Baillie.d2
"Oh, now you're teasing me!" Paige blushed, her ears turning a shade of red. "Baillie is younger, you know. It's only natural that I spoil him a bit more!" She said, increasingly embarrassed.
"Laura mentioned she made some delicious sweet soup today. I'll go check on it!" Paige dashed off in a hurry.
Rosalynn shook her head with a smile. Just then, her phone vibrated gently on the coffee table next to the sofa. It was a call from Rose.
Rosalynn picked up. There was some noise in the background.
"What's up?" Rosalynn asked.
Rose's voice was tinged with a sob, "Ms. Tesdal, I've run into a bit of trouble."
Rose's apartment had been flooded. Her story was that she had left in a hurry on a business trip and forgot to turn off the tap at the minibar, and water had been running for two days. When she got home, the property management company along with the neighbors from downstairs were at her door, ready to give her a call.
The water had seeped through the floor and leaked downstairs.
The tenant was furious, and no matter how much Rose apologized, they just kept hurling insults.
They had just finished renovating their place and now had to start all over again.
Rose was inexperienced in handling such situations. In her panic, she called Rosalynn.
Rosalynn quickly sent someone to deal with the situation, and it wasn't long before everything was sorted, and Rose was taken to Moonlit Lake.
She was a far cry from the polished office look she had when she left, soaked to the skin, her hair plastered to her face, looking as bedraggled as could be.
Rosalynn handed her a new set of clothes to change into.
Laura brought over some hot sweet soup, "Ms. Albinia, have some sweet soup, you'll warm up in no time!"
Rose was full of gratitude.
"So, where do you plan on staying now?" Paige asked with concern.
She had already envisioned that once Wayne came back, they would promptly head to Norhaven, and all the pets from Moonlit Lake would have to go, so naturally, Rose couldn't stay there.
"I guess a hotel, I'll look for one near the office later," Rose replied, her voice nasal, probably from the cold, her eyes red, looking extraordinarily pitiful.
"Why don't you stay at Moonlit Lake for the time being?" Rosalynn offered gently. "You're not planning on going back to Munich for New Year's, and we'll be heading to Norhaven for the holidays once Wayne returns. You're welcome to join us if you don't mind."
Paige was stunned. She knew Rosalynn was worried about Rose going down the wrong path, but it was the first time she had seen her take such careful care of someone.
"Really?" Rose turned to Paige as she asked.
"Of course, it's fine if you want to! My mother-in-law loves lively company and pretty girls!"Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Paige wasn't shy about that.
Kate was the kind of person whose mood improved at the sight of a beautiful girl.
Of course, looks alone weren't enough. If a person had a poor character, no matter how attractive, they were nothing but rotten meat in Kate's eyes.
"That's great! Back in Munich, every holiday's it was just me and Penn, so quiet."
