Rosalynn’s expression was decidedly icy.
She had brought Maggie here hoping to facilitate a meeting between the two, not expecting Sanford to

“Sweetheart…”
“Keep your hands to yourself.” Rosalynn shrugged off his arm. “Brian, do you share his sentiment? Do

“How could I think that way? I know you, Rosalynn. If you were a manipulative woman, you wouldn’t

him, only his wealth.”
Maggie looked taken aback, her gaze flitting to Rosalynn in confusion.
Rosalynn, too, appeared surprised, her brows furrowing.
