Chapter: 16
I'm sure you'll be able to seduce him."
Rena smiled bitterly.
She knew clearly that Waylen wasn't one to fall for tactics of seduction so easily.
After chatting with Vera for a little while Longer, she said goodnight and went back to sleep. When she woke up, it was already noon of the next day. Since Eloise wasn't home, the house was quiet.
Rena felt even worse today. She took her temperature and found that she had a high fever.
She dragged herself out of bed, ate something, and then took a taxi to the hospital.
Unfortunately, the hospital was crowded. Over an hour later, it was finally her turn to see the doctor. After a quick assessment, the doctor asked the nurse to give her an IV drip.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon by the time Rena was put on a drip.
She was exhausted and soon fell asleep, leaning against the chair.
It just so happened that Waylen had accompanied his mother to the hospital to get her medication today. Just as they were about to leave, he happened to see a familiar figure in the transfusion room.
It was Rena, who had fallen asleep in her chair.
With a needle protruding out of the back of her hand, she looked very fragile and vulnerable.
Waylen found that he couldn't tear his eyes away from her.
Following her son's gaze, Juliette Fowler asked in surprise, “Waylen, do you know this Lady?"
Waylen said gruffly, “I met her once."
“When I was in line for registration, I found that the process was a lot more complicated than before. It was this Lady who was kind enough to help me out. What a small world!"
Waylen nodded silently and looked at Rena again.
The latter had just woken up.
When she saw Waylen, she forgot that she was hooked onto an IV and stood up in a hurry. The transparent infusion tube immediately turned red as blood was drawn out due to her sudden movement. Frowning, Rena sat down quickly.
Waylen pursed his lips.
Juliette had grown fond of Rena thanks to their brief interaction. She said to her son, "Why don't you stay and keep this poor Lady company for a while? She's obviously sick, but she's here alone. How pitiful!"
Waylen didn't want to, but when he met his mother's determined eyes, he had no choice but to obey.
