Chapter: 1440
Yet, every now and then, Rena could not help recalling Harold.

Once, she was startled awake in the midst of a dream, lying alone on her bed while Waylen was away on a business trip in Hondrau.

She wrapped herself in her nightgown and approached the window.

The desolate autumn was further intensified by the ceaseless night rain.

Feeling a slight chill, Rena dialed Waylen’s number. After a few rings, he answered the call with tenderness, "Rena, did you have a nightmare?"

She nodded, recounting the dream where Harold had a tragic traffic accident.

In a hushed tone, Waylen inquired, "Do you want me to come back?"

She declined his offer.

A prolonged silence followed and with weariness evident in her voice, she asked, "Are you going to sleep?"

Glancing at the stack of documents on the desk, Waylen replied hoarsely, "Not yet. I want to conclude the negotiation as soon as possible and return home."

They continued chatting for a while.

Finally, Rena ended the call first.

She couldn't help but think if she were a few years younger, she might have longed for him to come back and keep her company.

On the other end of the line, after hanging up, Waylen picked up a photo of Rena and gazed at it quietly for a long time.

Their relationship had improved considerably in recent times.

Perhaps it was Harold's tragic death that had eased the tension between them.

Deep down, Waylen understood that Harold's demise had left an indelible mark in Rena's heart.

He knew better than to make a fuss about it since Harold was no Longer among the living.

Gradually, he adapted to their waning passion and doubts began to creep in. How much did Rena Love him?

Adults' love often involved weighing the advantages and disadvantages.

They choose to stay in their comfort zone after considering all the factors.

Moreover, Waylen had no improper desires for other women.
