Yet Selina cautioned him, “You should be more cautious. Don’t bring shame upon others. She’s no
simpleton. She knows how to charm men.
Haven’t you noticed Lyndon’s concern for her? More so than Brian’s when you brought out the snake?”
Kyson’s brow creased in concern.
“Is Lyndon also taken with her?”
With a crafty glint in her eye, Selina’s voice dropped to a whisper.

A chill crossed Kyson’s expression.
“I hold both Brian and Lyndon in high esteem. She better not turn out to be promiscuous!”
Selina spoke with outward gentleness, but inwardly, she seethed.
Kyson had to be the one to reprimand Rosalynn!
Inside the kitchen, Gail offered an apologetic tone, “Rosa, I hope Kyson didn’t frighten you. He’s been
spoiled. It was one thing when he fancied keeping cats and dogs in his youth, but as he matured, his
interests took a turn towards the peculiar. Imagine my shock when he first came home with a giant
python. I was nearly petrified.”
Rosalynn, rinsing her hands, visualized the scenario and chuckled.
“Boys will embark on adventures. It’s in their nature. Maybe there’s a part of me that’s boyish, too. I fear
nothing.”
Gail’s face brightened with relief.
“I’m glad you’re untroubled by it.”

“A bit of this and that,” Rosalynn replied, her smile a blend of gentleness and self-assurance.

At the kitchen doorway, Brian’s expression turned stormy upon witnessing this exchange.
As Lyndon moved to hand Rosalynn a towel, Brian intervened, his tall frame creating a barrier between
Lyndon and her.
Rosalynn shot a look his way, reaching for the towel, but Brian, taking the task upon himself, began
drying her hands with a tender focus.
Observing his large, well-defined hands, Rosalynn bit her lip.
Was he attempting to put on a show again?
She dismissed the thought, allowing him his moment.
