However, Mary didn’t get up. She said in a tense voice, “I accept. Two million dollars is fine.”

Though the offer was low, the job opportunity itself was crucial for Mary. She had underestimated Rena.

Rena was very ruthless.

Mary felt upset. After signing the harsh contract, she couldn’t help blurting out, “Ms. Gordon, don’t you want to know what happened between me and Mr. Fowler?”

Rena looked at the contract and replied coolly, “I didn’t ask about it before, and it’s even more irrelevant now.

Miss Brown, if you ever decide to write an autobiography and want to include this story, maybe I’ll pay for it.”

Embarrassment flushed Mary’s face.

Following this encounter, Mary and her agent left.

Rena called in the R&D manager, handing him the contract. She said, “Name this new shower gel ‘Flipped’.”. ©

The manager looked at the contract, seeing that Rena had signed with Mary for two million dollars.

The product was to be called “Flipped,” surely leaving Mary feeling offended.

Rena sat playing with her phone and said with a hint of amusement, “She made such a fuss about her romantic fling with Waylen in the past. It seems she likes publicity stunts. She’s getting what she deserves.” ©

This new body wash was sure to be a hit.

As Rena expected, on the first day of the product release, “Flipped” sold 12 million units across all platforms, becoming a best-selling daily chemical product.

The Exceed Group’s shares rose to the daily limit for three consecutive days.

Korbyn personally called Rena to lavish praise upon her, even offering her full control of the Fowler Group if she wished.

He, on the other hand, would happily take care of the children.

However, Rena politely declined the offer.

After hanging up the phone, Rena decided to indulge in a luxurious bath before seeing her children and turning in for the night.

As she soaked in the opulent bathtub filled with fragrant bubbles, Rena smiled gently while holding the “Flipped” shower gel in her hand.

Once done with her bath, she donned a bathrobe.

It was already late, so she prepared to kissed her children goodnight before going to bed.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, she was taken aback to find someone else in her bedroom.

There sat Waylen, on the soft bed, smoking.

Clad in black, he looked strikingly handsome.

His smoking gesture also held an undeniable allure.

Rena was in no mood to appreciate his charm. She tightened her bathrobe and asked coldly, “Why are you in my bedroom? We are divorced. Do I have to remind you of that every day?”

Waylen glanced at her, his voice soft as he replied, “I’m here to see Alexis and Marcus.”

Rena took a seat in front of the dressing table, combing her long hair.

“But you still shouldn’t have come to my room. We can talk in the living room.”

Waylen extinguished his cigarette.

He got straight to the point. “Why did you ask Mary to endorse the product if you don’t like her?”

Rena combed her long hair slowly, flashing a smile as she replied, “Do you want to know the truth?”

Waylen’s gaze was intense.

Rena began to apply her skincare products. As she did, she explained at a leisurely pace,

“We put in a lot of effort and resources into developing this shower gel, but it turned out to be just average. The early feedback wasn’t ideal. At that time, Mary came to me, and she was affordable. I signed a contract with an A-list actress like her for a mere two million dollars. Moreover, her scandal with you was an added bonus.”

Rena smiled playfully.

“Who wouldn’t want to know what fragrance Mr. Fowler prefers?”

Rena’s scent wafted towards Waylen as she sniffed her wrist, making him uneasy.

The simple action was full of temptation in Waylen’s eyes.

This woman was infuriating, yet he couldn’t help but be drawn to her.

Waylen stood up, positioning his hands on either side of her, leaning closer, and said in a husky voice, “What if I like your scent?”

Rena’s expression darkened.

In acold tone, she replied, “I’m sorry, but you’ll never get anywhere near me again.” ©

Waylen gazed at the tender skin before him, longing to hold her, but he restrained himself.

After bantering with him for a while, Rena inquired seriously, “Where are my diary and recorder?”

“Do you want them?

If you do, then let me stay the night here.

I won’t ask for anything else. I just want to be with you and the children.”

Seeing through his tactics, Rena pushed him away, intending to usher him out. It was at that moment that the nanny knocked on the door and she sounded terrified. “Ma’am, Marcus seems to have a fever.”

Rena rushed to the baby room.

Marcus was burning with a fever of 102 degrees.

His face was flushed, and Rena worriedly changed her clothes and instructed the servant,

“Get the car ready. We need to go to the hospital right away.”

As she panicked, Waylen held her hand and suggested, “It’ll take at least half an hour for the driver to arrive. Let me drive you there.”

He gently picked up Marcus with ease.

Since he was tall and strong, it was easy for him to carry the child. Rena had no choice but to quickly follow him.
