Waylen sat across from Mark, fully aware of the caution required when conversing with someone of Mark’s caliber.

Nonetheless, he declared directly, “I want to marry Rena!”

Mark responded with an elegant smile.

He took out a cigarette box, extracted a cigarette, and toyed with it.

After a brief moment, he said, “We all know what has transpired between you and Rena. Rena’s grandmother especially opposes the idea. In the past, my sister, Reina, had a difficult life due to being involved with the wrong man, which has made the old lady cautious about Rena’s marriage.” Korbyn glanced at his son, while Waylen lowered his gaze.

Mark continued to smile. “I believe you can understand my point. In other words, Rena is the sole female of the Evans family in this generation. She is extremely precious to us. Since we have finally found her, there’s no reason to subject her to any further suffering.”

Korbyn understood.

It seemed Mark was well-informed about everything and had come to complicate matters for them.

Korbyn had nothing to say.

It was challenging for ordinary individuals to bear the ridicule of someone like Mark.

However, Waylen’s expression remained unchanged as he respectfully poured tea for Mark.

“I will remember what you’ve said, Mr. Evans. I will treat Rena well and ensure she is not wronged,” he pledged.

Mark was slightly surprised.

He had heard that Waylen possessed great eloquence in court, but he didn’t expect him to also be so thick-skinned. He gazed at him before standing up gracefully. “I’ll take my leave now.”

Korbyn and Waylen personally escorted Mark out.

Several black-clad bodyguards surrounded the man as he approached the car.

Waylen opened the car door and said, “Mr. Evans, I will go to Czanch and pay you a visit another day.”

Mark looked at him for a moment, smiled and then got into the car.

Four Audi A8s departed slowly, Korbyn glanced at Waylen and sneered.

“Well, let’s stop discussing whether I agree or not. Rena’s family doesn’t agree at all! Let me tell you, the Evans family is no ordinary family. It won’t be easy for you to marry Rena if they oppose the idea. Mark is ruthless and unyielding.

He will do anything to prevent you from marrying his niece!”

Waylen gazed into the distance, his hands in his pockets.

Upon hearing Korbyn’s words, he even managed a smile. “Dad, don’t you think Rena resembles Mark a lot?”

Korbyn gaze sharpened as he glared at his son.

That wasn’t the point at all! Besides, they were uncle and niece, of course they would resembled one another.

Meanwhile, in the hall, Cecilia decided to descend the stairs. As she peered outside, she exclaimed, “Rena’s uncle is so handsome!”

After leaving the Fowler family’s house, Mark headed straight to Eloise’s home.

Eloise no longer lived in high-end gated community anymore. Therefore, when four black limousines arrived, accompanied by numerous bodyguards, she and her neighbors were all taken aback.

Unlike earlier at the Fowler’s house, the man engaged Eloise in a gentle conversation.

Though experienced, Eloise couldn’t help but be drawn to his charisma.

Even Snowball, the dog, barked in approval.

With a smile, Mark said, “You must be Eloise, right? I’m Reina’s twin brother, Mark Evans.”

Eloise widened her eyes upon hearing what he just said.

She shook her head, confirming it wasn’t a dream.

Though she was unfamiliar with Mark, he possessed extensive knowledge about her. He was considerate and showed genuine concern. “Although my sister and her husband have passed away, I know you’ve been taking care of Rena over the years. I’ve come here today to visit their graves and I also want to invite you to Czanch to meet my mother.”

Eloise was deeply touched.

Reina was long gone when Eloise married Darren, so she the woman well. But Mark, Reina’s twin brother proved to be a decent man.

A smile slowly formed on her lips as Eloise instantly felt a bit relieved. She actually felt happy for Rena.

Eloise poured a cup of tea for Mark and smiled. “Mr. Evans, Rena is currently on a business trip in Heron. When she returns, I will ask her to visit you in Czanch. As for myself, I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”

However, the man insisted.

He gently took her hand and said in an even more gentle tone, “Please don’t say that. My mother has requested that I invite you to stay with us for a few days.”

Eloise blushed under Mark’s gaze.

Being scrutinized by such a handsome and kind-hearted man, she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous, even at her age. She stammered, “I can’t make a decision on this matter. I need to discuss it with Rena.”

Hearing this, Mark released her hand and continued to sip his tea with a smile.

After a short while, he said, “I didn’t expect Rena to be so independent, yet you’re like a kid, reporting everything to her!”

Eloise felt embarrassed, but it really wasn’t her decision to make.

Her heart raced as she dialed Rena’s number, eager to share the incredible news.

After a brief pause, Rena’s soft voice filled the line, “Is he still with you now?”

“Yes,” Eloise replied, barely containing her excitement. “I’ll pass the phone to him.” She handed the phone to Mark, who held it with

a mix of anticipation and nerves.

He cleared his throat and began speaking, his voice trembling. “Rena, I’m your uncle.”

Rena’s mind whirled, struggling to grasp the reality of the situation. A surge of emotions welled up within her as she listened to Mark’s heartfelt words.

He divulged everything he knew about her mother and their shared family history.

Rena had never seen her mother’s family since she was a child. Now that she knew from her uncle that the Evans family had never given up on her mother, she felt much better.

Mark’s voice softened, filled with a mixture of longing and determination. “I will visit your mother’s grave, and once you’re done with your work, I’ll send a private plane to bring you to Czanch.”

Feeling a sense of comfort in Mark’s words, Rena agreed, her voice filled with gratitude.

She then said, “Thank you, Uncle Mark. And please take good care of… my mother.”

Mark knew that she was referring to Eloise, so he agreed with a smile. His heart swelled with affection for Rena. He couldn’t help but think of the resemblance she bore to her mother, his beloved sister Reina. With their conversation concluded, he bid Rena farewell, promising to see her soon.
