Upon hearing this, Krista's mouth snapped shut. She then turned to Look at her son with an unnatural expression. After a moment of awkward silence, she quickly changed the subject.

"Oh, I just meant to say that

Rena's father is an accountant at the Moore Group.”

“Is that so?" Waylen slowly blew a smoke ring and flicked the ash off his cigarette.

"The way you put it, I was actually thinking that Harold was a heartless man who abandoned Rena. Maybe I was wrong!"

Krista felt embarrassed by the obvious implication in Waylen's words.

At this time, Harold spoke up.

“Oh, Waylen, you think too much! I don't know Miss Gordon at all."

Waylen cracked a smile.

He ruffled Rena's hair dotingly while saying, “Good! That's a relief."

Rena looked at him with admiration.

For once, he used his sharp tongue for good.

Waylen was a handsome man who oozed confidence in his every move. Rena couldn't help but swallow whenever she stared at him for too Long.

Harold had dated Rena for four years. He could tell that she had feelings for Waylen.

Stiff with anger, Harold said to Krista gruffly, “Let's go."

Neither Krista nor Addie were reconciled, but they obediently left with

Harold. As soon as they were in the car, Addie lost her temper.

"Mom, why didn't you expose Rena? Harold's going to marry Waylen's sister. So

Waylen's definitely on our side, right?"

“Shut up!"

Krista snapped at her, “You fool! Can't you read the room? Waylen holds all the cards. He has the power to call off the wedding!"

Addie was stunned.
