Just then, Rena’s phone rang, shattering the tense atmosphere. Frustrated, Vera muttered curses under her breath as she retrieved the phone for her friend.

It was a call from Waylen!

Vera stood in stunned silence. Maintaining her composure became an insurmountable task.

It turned out that Rena really was with Waylen!

Vera was shocked when she saw the caller ID.

Albeit hesitant, she answered the phone for Rena.

Waylen’s magnetic voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Where are you? Why aren’t you at home?”

Hearing the concern in Waylen’s voice, Vera glanced at Rena in surprise.

It seemed that… their relationship was very intimate!

Truth be told, she had been wondering how Rena’s father was suddenly bailed out of jail, not to mention the troubles Harold was facing. It turned out that Waylen was behind all this!

Vera’s eyes lit up. It was so exciting to learn that Waylen, who was the legend in the law circle for being fierce and invincible, had stood up for her friend.

Vera deliberately lowered her voice and whispered, “Mr. Fowler, this is Vera!

I was classmates with Rena back in college. We’ve met before, though—at the country club! Anyway, Rena’s with me now. She was so sad that she drank a lot and passed out.”

Waylen had just gotten back home. At this time, he was standing in front of the French window, gently loosening his tie with his slender fingers.

His actions were simple but elegant.

Hearing what Vera just said, he frowned. “She drank a lot? Why? What happened?”

Vera sighed and began to make up lies to tug at his heartstrings.

“Mr. Fowler, do you really not know? Rena cares a lot about you, and now she had a falling out with Harold! One of Harold’s girlfriends used to be our classmate and is now Rena’s colleague at work. She slandered Rena at university forum! Rena likes children very much but now she might never be able to go back to teaching those children. She is very upset about it.”

Vera got so carried away that she got choked up with sobs in the end Harold had hurt Rena too much.

Waylen didn’t say anything for a long time. His silence made Vera suddenly realize that she had inadvertently spilled the beans about Harold’s scandal.

Would it implicate Rena?

Just as she was beginning to wonder if she had shared too much, Waylen’s deep voice sounded. “Where are you?”

Vera didn’t dare to dilly-dally and quickly give him the address of the bar.

After putting the phone down, Vera had mixed feelings about the whole situation. Indeed, she was the one who had tried to help Rena get close to Waylen, but she really didn’t expect that her friend would’ actually win Waylen’s heart. After all, he was notorious for being difficult to approach.

In fact, just a few days ago a famous actress was at a Banquet with her friends.

When she saw Waylen at that banquet, she thought that she’d finally have the chance to marry into a rich family, but in the end, she couldn’t even get Waylen’s business card.

This had spread like wildfire in the entertainment circle!

Thinking of all these things, Vera gently pinched Rena’s cheek and smiled.

“You’re really something, honey!”

Just then, a thought occurred to Vera and she immediately called the person in charge of the reunion.

“Hey, just calling to let you know that Rena and I will attend the reunion this Saturday.”

After a while, she said loudly, “Yes, Rena’s really coming— with me!”

“I already said that she didn’t do anything wrong! Aren’t you listening? She’s going to the reunion, okay?” ,

After finally confirming their attendance with the person in charge of the reunion, Vera hung up with a grin. There were countless people who wanted to laugh at Rena. They could have their laugh. They’d eat their words at the reunion!

Vera Was grinning from ear to ear when Waylen finally arrived.

He was still wearing a formal suit.

The gray blazer and slacks fit him perfectly.

The white shirt highlighted his broad chest and narrow waist. and long legs.

Perhaps it was because of his powerful aura that the bar music seemed to fade into the background. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him…

Even as a child, Waylen always attracted attention, so he had grown callous to it.

He soon found Vera and Rena.

Vera was still sober, whereas Rena was passed out on top of the table.

The place smelled of alcohol, sweat, and perfume, but Rena looked pure against the chaotic backdrop of the bar.

Waylen nodded at Vera in greeting and then bent down to aaa Rena in his arms.

Rena woke up at that moment.

She opened her eyes and looked at finn’ in fear, like a frightened little.

“What’re you scared of?” Waylen asked unhappily.

Rena displayed an unexpected boldness when intoxicated, defying fear as she enveloped Waylen with her arms and softly murmured, “I’m feeling rather low spirited and just don’t wanna cook.”

Vera, observing from the sidelines, felt a surge of excitement at the sight of Waylen holding Rena close.

She yearned to continue observing them but Waylen wished to avoid prying eyes. He tenderly carried Rena, cradling her in his arms and gently placed her inside the luxurious golden Bentley Continental GT stationed by the bar entrance.

Fortunately, Rena obediently settled herself in the car.

With a graceful closure of the door, Waylen turned back and courteously inquired of Vera, “Would you like me to give you a ride?”

Vera swiftly waved her hand and replied, “No, thank you. Your utmost care for Rena is all that matters!”

Waylen had heard tales of Vera’s prowess in alcohol consumption and her frequent visits to bars. Nevertheless, he had never expected her to develop a genuine camaraderie with Rena.

Waylen nodded in acknowledgment and proceeded to enter the vehicle.

The golden Bentley Continental GT glided away leisurely. 3

Vera exclaimed, “They look like the perfect match!”

Suddenly, she slapped herself forcefully across the face, and it hurt!

This wasn’t a dream!

The reality sunk in that Rena had indeed found an incredible boyfriend!

Waylen drove onward, patiently waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

During this brief interlude, he turned his gaze towards Rena.
