Rena bit her lower lip, a mixture of curiosity and apprehension coursing through her as she entered the bathroom. Emerging from the shower, she found herself clad only in his shirt.

Its loose fit, designed for his 6.2—foot—tall frame, accentuated her slender and beautiful legs.

As Waylen entered the room to retrieve some documents, his eyes were captivated by the enticing sight before him. Unable to take his eyes off her, he involuntarily swallowed.

Rena felt her body quiver under Waylen’s intense gaze.

Sensing her unease, he handed her his phone and spoke in a calm voice, “Call your stepmother. She must be worried sick. Your phone has been off for an entire day.”

Taking the phone, she expressed her gratitude in a hushed tone before walking towards the window to make the call.

Eloise, still concerned that Rena would give in to Harold, bombarded her with questions.

Unsure of how to respond, Rena anxiously bit her lip.

Observing her distress, Waylen took the phone from her and spoke gently, “Mrs. Gordon, Rena is at my home. My name is Waylen Fowler, and I’m a lawyer.”

Rena was taken aback by his admission.

She hadn’t expected him to expose their relationship so openly. Did he understand the consequences?

But it wasn’t just Rena who was shocked.

Eloise pinched herself to ensure she wasn’t dreaming.

Was this really Waylen, Harold’s future brother-in-law?

Eloise was left speechless as Waylen briefly explained why Rena sought refuge with him.

After ending the call, he turned his attention back to Rena and instructed, “Go to the kitchen and make some hot soup for yourself. Eat it and then go get some rest. I have some matters to attend to.”

Before he proceeded to go to the study, Rena stopped him..

She gently tugged at Waylen’s sleeve, calling his name softly.

He turned to face her, meeting her gaze.

Slowly, she began, “Waylen, Harold and I…” She fell silent, unable to explain the deal she made with Harold.

Waylen lowered his eyes and spoke up softly, interrupting her. “I thought you came back with me because you had made your choice.”

Tenderly, he caressed her head.

“There will be nothing between you and Harold.”

Leaving her lost in thought, he then retreated to his study. She pondered his words, believing that his willingness to make an exception was primarily for Cecilia’s sake. Only by consummating their relationship could Harold let go.

Rena felt a sense of relief wash over her.

Making her way to the kitchen, she discovered that Waylen’s culinary space resembled a showroom. She wondered. if he ever cooked there. Opening the fridge, she found an assortment of ingredients: meat, eggs, and milk.

Using the ingredients, she proceeded to prepare two bowls of nice simple soup.

With one bowl in hand, she approached the man’s study.

He was engrossed in a phone conversation but gestured for her to come inside.

Placing the bowl on his desk, she intended to leave quietly.

However, he grabbed hold of her wrist, gently pulling her to sit on his lap.

Balancing the call and playfully teasing Rena with his free hand, Waylen’s flirtatious demeanor overwhelmed her.

Leaning against his shoulder, she gently bit it to keep herself from moaning out loud, eliciting a lustful gaze from him.

Meanwhile, Hyatt mentioned Rena on the other end of the line..

Waylen smiled and quipped, “She’s here. Do you want to talk to her?”

Hyatt paused for a moment before joking. “If Tyrone finds out, he’ll be shedding tears.”

“He’s not that fragile,” Waylen replied, a hint of amusement in his voice.

After concluding his call with Hyatt, he received several more documents related to Darren’s case.

Once free, he relished the soup Rena had prepared before urging her to get some sleep.

Without the need for the guest room, she understood his intentions.

Stepping into the master bedroom, she lifted the thin quilt and carefully settled herself in bed. In the darkness, she waited with bated breath.

A nervous excitement coursed through her. She wondered when he would join her.

And… What would he do to her?

Rena was utterly exhausted, yet sleep eluded her.

Tossing and turning, she couldn’t find solace. Every time she was on the brink of slumber, it felt as though strong arms were embracing her, and a gentle voice called out her name, “Rena…”

Startled, she awoke.

The moonlight cast a faint glow upon the bed in the dark bedroom.

Sitting up, Rena delicately touched her face.

She realized she had slept in Waylen’s bed at his home.

The bedroom door creaked open, and Waylen quietly entered after finishing his work.

Upon seeing Rena sitting on the bed, lost in thought, he abandoned the idea of turning on the lights and just approached her. Taking a seat beside her, he gently ran his fingers through her soft, long hair and inquired, “Why are you still awake?”

Rena obediently rested her chin on his shoulder.

He understood what troubled her and whispered in her ear, “I’ve taken care of everything, and I’ll see to it that everything is settled in the morning. If all goes well, your father will be released on bail.”

Gratitude filled her heart.

Even though she didn’t utter a word, she wrapped her arms around his neck.

Waylen, being youthful and passionate, had no need for restraint. Naturally, they embraced and shared kisses.

It was Rena’s first experience with such intimacy, and she was overcome with nervousness, unsure of what to do. Her body trembled, betraying her unease.

Seeing her reaction, his eyes burned with desire.

Just as they surrendered to their desires, Rena winced and cried out in pain.

“What’s wrong?” Concerned, he whispered in her ear, his warm breath tickling her skin.

Trembling, Rena responded, “My feet are blistered. They hurt.”

With his hand supporting the back of her head, he looked down at her. Worried that he might be unhappy to be interrupted, Rena clung to him and whispered softly, “The pain has subsided.”

Waylen chuckled, his voice husky.
