Break up?

Rena smiled softly and assured her that such a thing wouldn’t occur.

After all, they were merely companions driven by ***ual desire.

Cecilia watched as Rena entered the car and eagerly returned home clutching the gift.

Upon stepping inside the house, she came face to face with Waylen.

“Where is Rena?” Waylen asked as soon as he saw her.

Cecilia pursed her lips and replied, “You upset her and she left.”

Raising the box in her hand, she announced. “It’s a gift from Rena!”

Eager to unveil its contents, she settled onto the sofa and opened the box. Waylen contemplated leaving, but an inexplicable curiosity compelled him to witness Rena’s offering to Cecilia.

Rena had not told him about this gift she had prepared for Cecilia.

As Cecilia opened the box, she discovered that it didn’t contain a valuable piece of jewelry as she expected.

Instead, a brilliant yellow amulet, exquisitely crafted, lay before her.

Underneath it was a handwritten scripture.

The effort Rena must have put into acquiring such a precious gift was evident.

Cecilia’s trembling lips betrayed her emotions.

She murmured softly, “This is the most exauisite gift I have ever received!”

Waylen tenderly caressed her head and uttered, “May vou live a life filled with everlasting safety and happiness.”

With that, he grabbed the car keys and made his way towards the parking lot.

By the time Rena returned to the apartment, it was nearing ten o’clock.

She removed her makeup, indulged in a4 relaxing bath, and at the French window donning a black silk robe. It was a rare occasion for her to willingly partake in alcohol but tonight she desired a sip.

In the midst of her gentle intoxication, she intended to sever her ties with Waylen.

However, whether their relationship met its demise or not, she had no choice but to heed his wishes. After all, her father’s legal predicament had yet to be resolved, and she couldn’t afford to offend Waylen.

Rena ruminated extensively and devised numerous plans.

Yet, a wave of despondency engulfed her, prompting her to seek solace in the melodies of the piano.

As Waylen swung open the door, he caught sight of Rena gracefully staring the paino.

She didn’t shed a single tear. Instead a faint sadness painter her visage,

Rena was an entirely different entity compared to Elvira.

The piano’s melody abruptly ceased,

Rena turned her gage towards Waylen, mustering a smile, “You’ve back,” she whispered.

“Did you have a delightful time?” inquired Rena, her voice carrying an air of serenity.

Waylen gracefully removed his coat, casually tossing it onto the sofa before approaching her.

He idly toyed with the wine glass resting on the countertop, his gaze profound and contemplative.

Normally, Rena abstained from indulging in alcoholic beverages, adhering to a life of self-discipline.

However, tonight she had taken to drinking, indicating her troubled state of mind. Waylen surmised that he might be the cause.

In a hoarse voice, he queried, “Are you vexed?”

Rena remained silent, torn between the desire to be truthful and the reluctance to lie.

Following a prolonged silence, Waylen mustered a faint smile and uttered, “Rena, we agreed from the outset that we would enjoy each other’s company for a certain period of time and part amicably once we grew weary. What are you doing now?”

Rena gazed at him and softly inquired, “Have you grown weary of it now?”

Waylen instantaneously comprehended her meaning. She wanted to terminate their relationship.

Was it because of Elvira?

Abruptly, Waylen placed her onto the piano.

The piano emitted a melodic note.

Rena struggled, attempting to free herself.

Clad solely in a black silk bathrobe, her bosom inadvertently exposed during her struggles. Observing this, Waylen narrowed his eyes.

He swallowed hard and whispered into her ear, “Why are you so preoccupied with my association with Elvira? Don’t be so immature”

Rena appeared lost in a daze.

Veina tinged with blue pulsed on her temples.

Yet, she reined in her emotions,

Lifting her gage, she implored, “Enlighten me then. What is the mature thing to do?”

Without giving him a chance to speak, she enveloped her arms around his neck, pressing her crimson lips against his in a gentle and affectionate kiss, Taking the lead, she even delved into a passionate kiss, leaving Waylen utterly astonished!

Never before had Rena exhibited such bold and seductive behavior.

His previous disagreement with her slipped from his mind as he had always enjoyed being intimate with her. Now, he became completely immersed in the fervor of their kisses.

The piano continued to fill the room with its harmonious melodies.

“Mr. Fowler, is this the mature thing to do?” Rena inquired, her tone remarkably composed.

Waylen lifted his gaze, locking eyes with her.

Rena bestowed a radiant smile upon him.

I apologize, Mr. Fowler. I overstepped tonight. It won’t happen again,” she declared, her voice laced with sarcasm. Pausing for a moment, she continued, her words dripping with irony, “I shall always remember my duties!”

Waylen’s eyes narrowed, a glimmer of emotion flickering within.

Gently, he caressed her face.

In that moment, he struggled to decipher his own sentiments.

He hoped she would act sensibly and uphold their agreement. However, witnessing her compliance, he couldn’t help but recall the occasions when he had caught her gazing at Harold with undeniable affection.

Had she reserved most of her love for Harold, offering him merely a fraction?
