Chapter 1397


    She saw an ice-cold drink on Karina’s side and quickly requested,


    “Karina, could you grab me a drink? I’m parched.”


    Karina looked at her and said with a smile, “Valeria, | dare not. If Hutton catches me, I''ll be in big trouble.”


    “He wouldn''t!” Valeria grabbed Rosalynn’s hand and begged, ““Rosalynn, how about you? Can | have a drink, please?”


    Rosalynn chuckled.


    “Alright, but don’t drink too much.”


    “Deal, | promise it will be a tiny sip. You are the best, Rosalynn!”


    Valeria leaned over and nted a kiss on Rosalynn’s cheek, elicitingughter from Karina and the others.


    As they casually chatted, Sanford’s phone suddenly rang.


    He nced at his phone and then at Rosalynn before answering the call.


    “Hello?”


    After a brief exchange, Sanford handed the phone to Rosalynn, saying,N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    “Rosalyn, it’s Brian.”


    What? Brian?


    Had he now resorted to contacting her through Sanford?


    Rosalynn’s heart sank as she took the phone and quietly stepped away from the group.


    The once cheerful atmosphere took an abrupt turn.


    Valeria’s brow furrowed as she asked worriedly, “Brian didn’t show up today. Did they fight?”


    Karina nced at Rosalynn’s retreating figure and let out a resigned sigh.


    “The rtionship between Brian’s mother and Rosalynn is difficult to deal with. Valeria, you are lucky. If you marry Hutton, you


    won''t have to deal with these troubles.”


    Maggie, who had been silent until now, nodded in agreement.


    Sanford turned to Maggie and yfully pinched her hand.
