Lately, she had had a lot of free time on her hands, so she often went to accompany her parents.

Darren had been discharged from the hospital and moved back into their apartment.

When he realized that Rena didn't live with them anymore, he was perplexed.

But whenever he asked about it, Eloise would help her cover it up.

After Lunch, Rena helped Eloise do the dishes in the kitchen.

In a low voice, Eloise whispered, “I heard that Harold has been having a hard time recently. Is it true? Did Waylen really teach him a lesson?"

Rena nodded silently.

Vera had told Rena everything. It turned out that Waylen didn't completely destroy Harold's career. Although the latter would go through some difficulties now, his company could go back to regular programming in one or two months.

Rena relayed to Eloise everything she knew, and when she was finished,

Eloise gritted her teeth and spat, "It wasn't even enough!"

But Rena shook her head.

“What matters is that Dad's fine. Besides,

Waylen's sister is going to marry Harold. He can't really destroy his sister's fiance just to help me.”

Eloise was in a trance for a while. Suddenly, her face fell.

“Rena, I'm so sorry!"

She had said that she wouldn't let Rena sell her body, but in the end, she didn't do anything when Rena asked Waylen for help in exchange for her moving in with him. She knew that Waylen wouldn't marry Rena, but she didn't stop Rena from agreeing to this arrangement.

Rena shook her head and said, "Don't apologize."

After all, she wasn't Darren's biological daughter, yet Darren had given her all his love and even refused to let Eloise have her own child. Rena was willing to repay his kindness with anything.

The sudden dip in the conversation made the atmosphere in the kitchen a little tense.

Still, Rena didn't intend to leave just yet.

Just then, the doorbell rang. Eloise was helping Darren with his rehabilitation exercises, so she asked Rena to open the door.

Rena obediently went to the door and opened it.
