He turned up the music as he approached.

Rena sensed his presence and paused, looking at him. She asked, “Why have you returned now? Did you come back to sign the divorce agreement?”

Waylen walked toward her.

Just one step away, he reached out and encircled her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace.

Lowering his head, he kissed her passionately.

Her body felt so supple and her glistening skin was mesmerizing.

Waylen caressed her while they kissed, saying, “You had her beaten like that just because you wanted me to divorce you, didn’t you? Rena, why do you think I’d prefer her? Compared to her, I desire you every day… Don’t you recall how tender and sweet you were when we made love? It’s been months since we last touched each other. I suppose you’ve forgotten.

Allow me to remind you.”

Waylen was forceful. He pinned Rena down on the soft sofa.

Her head sank into the fabric, feeling the powerful impact of his desire on her body. Her attempts to resist were overpowered…

Waylen bit the soft flesh behind her ear and murmured, “This feels so right.”

They were in the Fowler’s residence, which meant Rena couldn’t cry out, as it might have embarrassed herself. Moreover, the elders of the Fowler family were also napping… In humiliation, Rena turned her face away and the faint blue veins on her forehead became visible.

Waylen cherished that spot the most…

When Rena was aroused, those veins would become apparent.

He panted, gently tracing her eyebrows with his slender fingers. “You’re still my wife. If I don’t sign it, you’ll always be Mrs. Fowler.”

He made passionate love to her.

Perhaps it was because it had been too long since they were intimate, Waylen longed for Rena’s scent so intensely that he kept her under him for more than three hours…

The intimate encounter eventually came to an end.

He continued to hold her close, unwilling to release her until his perspiration turned cold.

After resting for a while, Rena gradually regained some strength. She kicked him away ani cried tearfully, “Is that enough? If you’re satisfied, then leave.”

Waylen lowered his head and kissed her again.

After a long moment, he whispered, “You’re my good girl.”

Rena pushed him away and sat up, caring little for her disheveled appearance. Her fingers gently combed through her long brown hair as she spoke in a trembling voice, trying to maintain a casual demeanor. “Waylen, do you truly believe that having sex with me for a few hours will change my mind and make me obedient to you? You overestimate yourself.”

Yes, they had shared a moment of intimacy…

But divorce was still inevitable.

With that said, Rena headed straight to the shower to cleanse her body.

Upon her emerging, Waylen had already donned his shirt and suit pants, though they appeared slightly wrinkled. He gazed at her and asked in a hushed tone, “Why did you change your clothes? Are you going out?”

Rena grabbed her phone from the sofa and headed for the door.

He took hold of her wrist, questioning her about her destination.

Rena shook off his grip and replied, “I’m going to buy contraceptive pills. Waylen, do you think I’d have another baby for you?”

Rena had ceased lactating the previous night.

Her menstrual cycle was due soon. Given their recent sexual encounter, she feared the possibility of getting pregnant…

After a while, Waylen said in a low voice, “Ill go buy it.”

He wanted to do this one little thing for Rena.

Seeing that he was more than willing to run the errand, Rena didn’t refuse him. After all, her legs were still weak from their passionate session just now, and she wasn’t in the mood to go out.

Half an hour later, Waylen returned with the medicine.

Rena had gone back to her bedroom by then.

Waylen handed her the medicine and a glass of water. She swallowed the pill and grimaced.

Afterwards, she turned to look at Waylen and said, “You can leave now.”

Men were always like this. They’d feel better after relieving themselves through sex, and then they’d become pushovers. Despite Rena’s cold indifference, Waylen didn’t get angry.

On the contrary, he sat down next her and asked, “Why are you so weak all of a sudden? I wasn’t that rough with you just now.”

Rena lowered her head and murmured, “Waylen, enough’s enough…”

Waylen knew that Rena was annoyed because of Mavis, so he reassured her, “Rena, I swear that Mavis and I have nothing to do with each other.”

“Is that so?

Then how can you explain the two hundred thousand dollars, Mr. Fowler?”

Rena knew about that?

Frowning, Waylen immediately thought of Jazlyn. Maybe she was the one who told Rena about this.

But Waylen still wasn’t angry. He gently stroked Rena’s brown hair and whispered, “Rena, don’t be so heartless. I don’t have any feelings for her. Don’t you trust me?” ©

Rena smiled bitterly at this question.

Even though they just slept together, they had still parted on bad terms…

However, until now, Waylen refused to divorce Rena.

He suddenly became attentive and considerate to his wife and children.

Because he knew that Rena had already found a new place.

She was just waiting for him to sign the divorce agreement before she finally moved out with the kids.

Over the next two weeks, he couldn’t find a chance to get close to her. Even though she still lived under the same roof as him, she would sleep in Alexis’ room.
