He expressed his frustration crudely.
Rena refused to be taken advantage of.
She lifted the quilt in front of him and headed for the bathroom, declaring, âI donât deny it.
Itâs indeed very pleasurable.
â
Her actions and words fueled Waylenâs desire for her even more.
This womanâ¦
He completed dressing, grabbed his wallet, and left to buy the necessary medication.
When he returned, Rena had already taken a bath and attended to herself.
Standing by the French window, she gazed outside.
Waylen closed the door behind him, poured her a glass of warm water, retrieved a pill, and handed it to her.
Rena swallowed the pill with a mixture of water, finding it somewhat bitter.
Waylen embraced her gently, whispering into her ear, âRena, am I not worth another chance? Have I been sentenced to death in your heart?â
Rena was taken aback, and as she swallowed the water and pill, she experienced a pang of bitterness.
Waylen held her tenderly, his fingers caressing the soft flesh behind her ear, as he softly added, âI want to be a father, Rena.
I donât care much about the gender, but itâll be better if it is a girl.
Sheâd better get your brown hair and unlined face.
Weâll raise her as a princess and wonât let anyone bully her.

Renaâs body stiffened.
âHave a baby for me, Rena.
I long for it with all my heart.

In this tender moment, Waylenâs phone rang.
It was Korbyn, speaking in a stern tone.
âWaylen, return to Duefron immediately.
Cecilia has tried to take her own life.
She took three sleeping pills and your mother is distraught.
â
âWhy? What happened?â âHarold is having an affair, and that woman came to us.
â
Waylen felt helpless.
Had taking three sleeping pills even passed as attempt at suicide?
However, this matter needed to be resolved.
Waylen had a hunch that Rena was somehow involved in the matter, even if his father hadnât explicitly mentioned it.
He lit a cigarette and sighed.
âI have to go back to Duefron.
â
Rena overheard the conversation.
Given her deep affection for Cecilia, she suggested, âYou should stay with her.
