Chapter 1897
Brian put on a brave face.
He didn’t want Rosalynn fretting over him.
He’d keep his business tight.
All Rosalynn had to do was look after herself and the baby.
Rosalynn paused, figuring it was time to spill about Barlow.
Even though Barlow had sworn her to secrecy before he kicked the bucket, with Brian knowing Aldrich’s game now, there was no reason to keep Barlow’s role a secret.
“Honey, there’s something I haven’t told you yet,” she said.
“What’s up?” Brian asked.
“Well, Barlow was actually a snitch for the cops.
He’s been snooping around the Hughes Group on the down-low.
”
What? Barlow was working with the cops?
Brian was caught off guard, a flicker of surprise dancing in his eyes.
“How’d you find out?” he inquired.
“He told me himself,” Rosalynn revealed.
Brian mulled it over.
Considering what Aldrich had pulled, Brian suspected Barlow might’ve been feeding Rosalynn lies to worm his way in and hurt him.
But since he’d showed up in Wragos, he hadn’t made a move against him.
Except for going after his wife.
Could he trust Barlow?
“If you knew, why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Brian questioned.
Rosalynn explained, “Barlow was scared you’d lose your cool and spill to Aldrich, exposing your hand.
He made me promise not to say.
Besides, Aldrich is sneaky.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
”
Brian eyed her.
“Do I look clueless?”
“Of course not,” Rosalynn responded, her lips pursed.
“He also held back because your family abandoned him.
He’s got a grudge.
”
Brian grimaced.
“I’m asking why you listened.
”
Rosalynn adjusted her hair and said, “Back then, our bond wasn’t solid.
You and Barlow were tense.
I feared something would mess up his scheme.
”
Brian’s gaze darkened.
“So, he means more to you than I do, huh?”
