A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

He instructed Jazlyn, “Ask Miss Stanley to join us. And bring some desserts.”

Jazlyn departed, her smile still intact.

Waylen lifted Alexis onto the sofa, allowing her to settle in comfortably. He then turned to Rena with a smile. “I don’t really know her. But since you’re unhappy, I’ll let you see her… So as to prove my innocence.”

Rena saw through Waylen’s deception, remaining unswayed.

A contemptuous snort escaped her lips as she retorted, “My happiness is not contingent on your personal affairs.”

Waylen’s smile widened and he confidently stated, “My private life has nothing to do with her. However, you and Alexis play a significant role in it!”

With a pointed gaze directed at Alexis, he turned to her and inquired, “Wouldn’t you agree?”

Alexis, perched on her father’s lap, regarded Rena with a gaze that hinted at a heartbreaker.

Rena found herself at a loss for words, unable to respond.

Their conversation was interrupted by the arrival of Jazlyn.

Jazlyn approached with a tray holding Alexis’ favorite pine nut muffins and an assortment of delectable desserts.

Following Jazlyn was Maeve Stanley, a renowned female celebrity known for her confidence.

Maeve possessed exceptional acting skills, accolades and a respectable reputation within the industry.

Having missed an opportunity to get closer to Waylen during their time in Hondrau, she had come today to finalize an official contract, determined not to let this chance slip away again.

Jazlyn made a welcoming gesture, addressing Maeve, “Miss Stanley, please have a seat.”

Maeve smiled, prepared to take a seat, but her brows furrowed upon noticing another woman already occupying the sofa.

The woman was undeniably stunning, exuding youth and elegance.

In contrast to the typically waif-like female stars in the entertainment industry, she possessed a slender yet shapely figure.

Maeve’s unease grew, contemplating if this woman could be Waylen’s lover.

Just as Maeve hesitated, Alexis climbed down

Waylen cast a brief glance in her direction.

He walked over to the coffee machine, preparing to brew a cup of coffee.

Knowing Rena’s fondness for coffee, he had specially acquired a quality vintage coffee machine from Ypsila, ensuring she could enjoy a delicious cup every time she visited.

Removing his coat, Waylen revealed a dark blue shirt paired with black suit pants.

The well-fitted shirt accentuated his impressive physique, showcasing his maturity and charm. Maeve couldn’t help but feel that she had finally found the perfect match for herself.

Assuming that the coffee was being made for her, she took it for granted.

Despite Waylen being a business elite, she was an A-list actress in her own right, believing she deserved someone of his caliber.

Compelled to win over his daughter, Maeve took a seat at the small round table. She too desired to relish a muffin and engage Alexis in conversation.

As she reached out her hand, Alexis swiftly snatched the last pine nut muffin, scurried over to Rena and gently fed it to her, inquiring, “Mom, is it delicious?”

Mom?

Wasn’t this woman her sitter?!

Maeve, who had experienced many things in life, now found herself feeling deeply embarrassed. When she looked at Rena once more, she dared not display the same arrogance as before, yet she clung to a glimmer of hope.

Waylen and his wife had long divorced, so perhaps this meeting was solely due to the child.

Meanwhile, Waylen approached the scene.

Placing a cup of coffee in front of Rena, he said gently, “It’s not advisable to consume excessive amounts of coffee. You should limit yourself to half a cup.”

Maeve was utterly taken aback!

That cup of coffee was not intended for her!

Unwilling to accept this reality, frustration took hold of her, and she demanded, “Why?”

She refused to believe that Waylen was unaware of her thoughts.

That night, she had knocked on his room door. He had denied her entry, but he hadn’t uttered a single harsh word, Later, she heard that he had left Hondrau that very night.

Waylen had always been careful to separate his personal and professional life.

He gently patted Rena’s shoulder and instructed, “Take Lexi to the lounge. I’ll discuss business matters with Miss Stanley.”

Recognizing that he wished to spare Maeve any embarrassment, Rena complied, lifting Alexis into her arms.

Resting her head on Rena’s shoulder, Alexis stuck out her tongue playfully at Maeve.

Returning to his desk, Waylen dialed an internal line, summoning the deputy general manager. “Barry, come to my office.”

Barry Reed responded promptly.

Waylen then paid no attention to Maeve. He focused on the document and engaged in conversation with Jazlyn.

At that moment, Barry arrived.

As soon as he entered, Waylen pointed at Maeve and stated icily, “Miss Stanley wishes to revisit the contract. You can handle it with her. By the way, did we previously agree on an annual endorsement fee of 12 million dollars? Due to recent financial difficulties, we will reduce it to 10 million dollars. If she is dissatisfied, she doesn’t have to sign the contract.”

Barry was taken aback.

What had happened?

Turning a cold gaze towards Maeve, Waylen declared, “Miss Stanley, henceforth, direct all your inquiries to Mr. Reed here!”

Having already saved her from humiliation once, and seeing that she had not grasped her mistake, Waylen felt no obligation to spare her further embarrassment.
