The mere thought of it made Rena feel nauseous.

Mavis had an abortion less than a month ago, yet she had already been involved with Theo and possibly other men. ©

Her face turned pale.

Waylen's voice softened as he said, "So, Rena, it doesn't matter if you attend the premiere, but remember not to get too involved in the entertainment circle. It's too complicated!"

Rena wasn't stubborn.

She heard him loud and clear, nodding in agreement.

Her voice sounded gentle and soothing to him.

Waylen’s eyes darkened and he gave her a faint smile.

"Sometimes, you can be quite obedient."

Rena felt the atmosphere between them becoming too ambiguous.

She wanted to leave, but he stopped her and whispered, "Don't go out now. Don't you want your uncle to spend more time with Cecilia? He's leaving for Czanch this afternoon. Thisis a rare chance for them to be alone.”

Hearing that, Rena obliged and sat back down.

She couldn't fully comprehend the new Waylen. His actions were different from before, and it left her puzzled.

He didn't do anything to her but quietly smoked. The faint scent of nicotine permeated the air and filled every corner of the room.

After a while, Waylen unexpectedly confessed, "Rena, | actually envy Mark."

At least, he hadn't lost his memory.

At least, he always knew what he wanted.

But for Waylen, he had lost a crucial part of himself. Yes, he could still be the charismatic and untamed Waylen. As long as he wished, countless women would still vie for his attention and revolve around him.

But he couldn't reclaim his past.

He had experienced marriage with Rena. How could he forsake and forget it again?

In truth, he struggled.

At times, he didn't even know whom to blame. ©
