Mavis bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Mr. Fowler, | don't want to be with you for your money. | genuinely have feelings for you... You're my brother-in-law. Don't you have any feelings for me at all?” ©

Brother-in-law...

Jazlyn rolled her eyes and gently reminded Mavis, “Elvira was married once in her life. And wedded a man named Theo Howard."

Mavis felt embarrassed.

Now that she was getting desperate, she resorted to using some taboo relationships to arouse Waylen's possessiveness.

But Waylen had no romantic feelings for her.

Men always made comparisons.

Compared to Rena’s shapely figure, Mavis was way less appealing.

Men with sight intact knew whom they truly desired to hold.

Waylen didn't engage in prolonged arguments with Mavis. He left her with a parting remark,

"Ill give you three days to think it over."

In the car, his thoughts turned to Rena...

He didn't pity Mavis but he couldn't help but see a hint of relentless determination in Rena, reminiscent of his past self.

Waylen’s mind shifted to the mother and daughter in Heron.

Once again, anger surged within him.

Waylen knew that Rena's actions towards Mavis were driven partly by a desire for revenge, and partly by her intention to infuriate him and coerce him into signing the divorce agreement. He couldn't help but wonder if Rena was eager to leave him. ©

Was there someone else waiting for her? ©

Perhaps it was Harold or Hector?

In the afternoon, Waylen drove back to the Fowler's residence, aware that Rena would be at home with Alexis.

Alexis was peacefully napping.

Waylen gently caressed her warm face and inquired of the servant, "Where is Rena?"
