As Rena wiped her face, she replied, âI lack the favorable background that you possess.
By the way, what brings you here? Why arenât you staying with Mr.
Lockhart?â
âWhy would I stay with him? He didnât want me to.
â
Zack added, âIf you stay with me, you wonât have to endure such hardships.
â
Rena shot him a glare and departed from his presence.
Undeterred, Zack followed her and exclaimed, âDamn it! Is that your way of showing gratitude?â
As Rena and Zack departed, a solitary figure emerged from the menâs room.
It was none other than Waylen.
His gaze was fixed on the water in the sink, consumed by worry for Rena.
How could she invest so much in a project destined for failure? In the past, she had never pushed herself to such lengths.
Was it because she no longer wanted to rely on anyone after leaving him?
Pulling out his phone, Waylen dialed Joeâs number.
âMr.
Lockhart, itâs Waylen speaking.
Yes, I saw you just now⦠Can we meet?â
Half an hour later, Joe was escorted to a private room where Waylen awaited him.
Aware of Waylen and Renaâs history, Joe had been respectful towards Rena even though he had no intention of cooperating with her.
As they settled down, Waylen wasted no time getting to the point.
âI need a favor regarding Renaâs project.
Can you help me, Mr.
Lockhart?â

Joe, holding a wine glass, found the situation amusing.
Chuckling, he responded, ââWaylen, youâve never been one to act impulsively, have you? Let me guess⦠Youâre still not over your old flame, and now you want me to assist her?â
Pausing for a moment, Joe continued, âNow that youâve brought it up, Iâll be honest with you.
I have a high opinion of Miss Gordon.
Sheâs talented and possesses a good character.
However, I have reservations about Zack.
Heâs overly reckless, always throwing parties with a wild crowd.
It lacks decency.
â
Joe motioned for Waylen to drink, his words lingering in the air.
Waylen obliged, downing a strong alcoholic beverage in a single gulp.
With a smile, he responded, âZack may be young and enjoy a wild lifestyle, but heâs also a successful race car driver.
Heâs won the Formula 4 championship two years in a row.
Although he might not excel in other ventures, he knows how to thrive in this field, Iâm familier with the customer base of the music studio.
It consist of high-end individuals, making it an ideal opportunity to target the mid-range and luxury car market.
â
Despite his initial hesitation, Joeâs concerns were assuaged by Waylenâs confidence.
Waylen smiled and said, âHow about this, Mr.
Lockhart, just do it boldly.
If you have any loss, I will bear it alone.
In addition, I will help you with the the legal affairs of your company without charge.
