A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Rena, already weighed down by her emotions, had no desire to engage with Harold.

Yet, he grabbed her arm, forcefully pulling her out of the car.

The cold night wind bit at their skin as they faced each other.

Harold, cigarette in hand, took a drag before speaking, his voice laced with bitterness. “After everything, you still want to be with him? Do you want to witness Waylen maintaining contact with his ex-lover throughout this two-year cross-border divorce lawsuit? If Elvira were to harm herself, Waylen would rush to the hospital because the Fowler family owes Lyndon a favor. Rena, is this the kind of relationship you want? Are you willing to be wronged like this?”

Harold’s words were harsh, and Rena held her composure.

What he said was right though.

“Harold, my well-being is none of your concern.”

Harold’s frustration boiled over, and he slammed his hand against the car roof.

The driver instantly jumped from his seat and looked at him with startled eyes.

In the moonlit darkness, Harold’s face twisted with intensity as he questioned Rena, “Do you really think I have no humanity? Do you believe I don’t want you to be happy? Rena, have you ever considered that maybe I just want you to be happy?”

The cigarette quivered between his fingers as he exclaimed, “Damn it!

Are you out of your mind? Being with Tyrone would be a hundred times better for you than being with him.”

Rena’s face paled, her gaze fixed on Harold.

However, his intensity didn’t waver as he spoke up again in a gentler tone “Rena you can still give me a chance. I won’t let you down again.”

Without another word, Rena got back into the car, taking her place in the backseat.

Her voice flat and resolute, she addressed Harold, “Harold, it’s too late.”

She instructed the driver to proceed, and with a heavy sigh, he stepped on the gas.

Rena remained silent throughout the journey, lost in her thoughts.

The young driver couldn’t help but offer some reassurance, “Don’t worry, Miss Gordon. I won’t gossip about what happened tonight.”

Rene didn’t respond, her mind preoccupied with her current situation.

She returned to Waylen’s apartment and created a comfortable space for Snowball.

Then, she wanted—waited for Waylen to come back.

Rene waited until 12 o’clock at night, but Waylen hadn’t come back yet.

The hours stretched on, the stillness of the night broken only by Snowball’s restless circling at Rena’s feet.

Sitting in front of the window, Rena played melancholic melodies on the piano.

Snowball seemed to have found the music relaxing since it fell asleep at her feet not long after.

She continued sitting there, the enchanting night view of Duefron before her.

But despite the serene scene, an overwhelming sense of despair weighed upon her.

She looked at this relationship and found that she had no way back…

Waylen didn’t return throughout the night.

In the early morning hours, Rena, accompanied by Snowball, left Waylen’s apartment and returned to her own place.

Later, Waylen called her, but holding the phone, Rena found herself at a loss for words.

Their conversation was brief, interrupted by another call on Waylen’s end, forcing him to hang up.

Days passed without them seeing each other.

Meanwhile, another issue emerged at the music studio.

One day, Paisley invited Rena to her office for a private conversation over coffee. Rena couldn’t help but notice that Paisley appeared unwell, and her concern grew.

“Rena, I have stomach cancer,” Paisley whispered, her voice filled with vulnerability.

Stunned, Rena blinked, tears welling up and cascading down her cheeks.

She made no effort to wipe them away, instead leaning in closer.

“Have you sought a second opinion?”

Paisley confirmed that she had consulted the best hospitals both domestically and internationally. She shared her desire to seek treatment in another country—Rouemn that was. Not wanting to relinquish her shares in the music studio, and if possible, she hoped Rena would take over the shares, with no other demands except to recover the invested capital.

Paisley held Rena’s hand, her grip both firm and frail.

Rena placed her coffee cup down, her fingers trembling.

After a prolonged silence, she made a heartfelt declaration, “I will go to Rouemn with you.”

Paisley shook her head, a flicker of strength returning to her eyes.

She didn’t want Rena to give up on the music studio. Despite her illness, she held onto the hope that Rena would persevere.

The music studio was their joint effort, and it represented their dreams.

Paisley shared her thoughts, and Rena found herself overwhelmed by the weight of the situation.

Taking over Paisley’s shares would require a substantial investment of around ten million dollars,

However, she was adamant about not seeking financial assistance from Waylen.

In the evening, she visited Darren for dinner and confided in Eloise about Paisley’s illness and the music studio dilemma,

Darren, seeing Rena’s distress, turned to Eloise and made a decision, “Let’s support her, Give Rena the funds,”

Eloise retreated to her room to assess their financial situation.

They had several million dollars, but it fell short of the required amount. Eloise had an idea, which she shared with Darren. “Paisley is going through a difficult time, and both Rena and she have put in so much effort for the music studio. How about this? You and I can sell our apartment for approximately 20 million dollars. It’s only the two of us, and we don’t need such a large place. We can move into a smaller apartment. It will be sufficient for us.”

Initially resistant, Rena eventually relented.

The decision was finalized by Darren, and Rena couldn’t shake off the guilt she felt.

Eloise spoke softly, trying to ease her stepdaughter’s burden. “You are our only child, Rena. If we don’t support you, then whom shall we give these resources to?”

Located in a prime area, their house garnered considerable interest from potential buyers.

Within three days, a deal was struck, and preparations for the transfer of ownership were set in motion.

As the Gordon family settled into their smaller house, Eloise handed Rena a bundle of ten million dollars and said, “Give this to Paisley. And do me one more favor, dear. She has taken such good care of us all these years, so see what else we can help her with.”

Rena nodded, her heart filled with gratitude for Paisley’s unwavering support.

Unable to contain her excitement, Rena blurted out, “Once I earn enough money, I’ll buy you a magnificent house.”

Eloise’s eyes twinkled with joy as she replied, “Your father and I will eagerly await the day you find us a grander abode.”
