In response, Waylen sneered.

“I think Cecilia will mind if Miss Holt is not married and has no children.”

Rena turned around and began putting on her jewelry.

From behind, Waylen wrapped his arms around her waist. The tip of his straight nose brushed against the back of Rena’s ear.

“I really don’t want to let you go.”

Rena looked at Waylen through the mirror.

“You have time to drive me to the event, but you don’t have the time to attend it with me?” she said softly with a hint of complaint, which came across as coquettish.

And on Waylen, it worked.

His palm gently slid on her waist as he nibbled the soft flesh behind her ear. He pressed his mouth against her ear and whispered, “I don’t want to give others the chance to be your knight. After the party, I’ll pick you up, okay?”

Rena’s hand groped for his face and patted his cheek gently.

“I can’t say no to that.”

“Good girl,” Waylen said in her ear.

“I’ll show you my gratitude when you come back tonight.”

At that moment, Rena could feel the depth of Waylen’s affection for her that it became a bit too overwhelming.

They had known each other for nearly ten years and had been a couple for a long time. Despite that, Waylen was still hungry for her body and wanted to have sex with her every chance he got. It baffled her why Waylen always wanted her so badly.

On their way to the party, Rena’s face was as red as a tomato the entire time.

The car stopped, and Waylen opened the car door for her like a proper gentleman.

Rena kissed him on the lips and leaned closer to his ear.

“Don’t worry. We’ll be together for the rest of our lives,” she whispered.

A deep emotion welled in Waylen’s eyes.

At that moment, a voice sounded from behind them.

“Rena!”

This voice sounded familiar.

Both Waylen and Rena turned around. All of a sudden, Rena’s eyes moistened with tears. It was Harrison.

Under the pale moonlight of spring, Harrison’s tall and firm frame stood like a pillar, the outline of his body accentuated by his black suit.

His face had been repaired very well, making him look more mature than before.

Rena nodded at him in acknowledgement.

Meanwhile, Waylen’s heart was in shambles. However, he had to appear magnanimous. After all, Harrison had saved Rena in the past.

Waylen half-raised his hand and glanced at his watch. With a smile, he said, “I have to go back to the company now for a meeting.

Harrison, take care of Rena for me, okay?”

His words rendered Rena speechless.

Harrison, on the other hand, simply smiled in response.

Waylen cast another glance at Rena. Then, he returned gracefully to the side of the car and got in.

The way Waylen moved and the manner he carried himself was very attractive.

Rena stood there in awe as she watched Waylen move.

As the car left and disappeared into the distance, Harrison stood beside Rena and smiled.

“You two do love each other so much, don’t you?”

Rena gently wrapped her shawl around her shoulders and flashed a smile of her own.

“Harrison, don’t worry. One day, you’ll also meet your own Miss Right.”

Harrison nodded.

They walked in side by side. As soon as they arrived, Flora came over.

Flora threw herself to Harrison and pinched his face. Then, she turned to Rena and said, “Oh my god! You called Cecilia over?! Why didn’t you tell me that your uncle would also be here? You see, Thomas is kind of the host of this party. Now with Mark here…

Looks like this is going to be an interesting night.”

Rena was a bit confused. Why would her uncle come here?

A gust of wind blew past them, causing Flora’s high-end slit dress to billow against her body, highlighting her curves and making her look even more stunning.

Flora would have been the best looking woman at the party if Cecilia weren’t around.

Cecilia was wearing a long black lace gown, which accentuated her good figure.

Her hair was tied in a bun, showing off her pair of pearl earrings as well as the priceless diamond bracelet on her wrist.

“Cecilia really is breathtaking, isn’t she?” Flora blurted out.

At then, she couldn’t help but look back at Rena, thinking that she was just as pretty as Cecilia.

Rena smiled and was about to say something but stopped when she saw Mark from a distance. He was talking with other people in a corner while holding a glass of champagne.

Under the crystal chandelier, his gentle face was flawless.

He was wearing a black and white classic suit that made him look extremely regal.

Looking at his physique, Rena couldn’t help but think how rare it was for people from the political and business field to keep such a good figure for so many years.

On the other side, Mark had also seen Rena.

With a glass in his hand, he approached her.

But before he could come close, a couple happened to pass by, and the three of them bumped into one another.

“Mark,” Cecilia uttered, her voice almost inaudible.

Mark was holding up Cecilia’s body as he helped her regain her balance. Then, he turned to Thomas and said, “She’s still as careless as a child.”
