Chapter: 22
Rena watched them quietly.
Despite the fact that Cecilia was engaged to Rena's ex, she didn't hate Cecilia. She just found herself ridiculous.
It was obvious that Waylen cared about his sister very much. How could Rena have ever hoped that Waylen would help her with her father's case?
With her head lowered, Rena left quietly.
But Waylen saw her already. He excused himself with a few words and walked to the front desk.
The receptionist immediately handed the velvet box to him and said,
“Mr. Fowler, a lady left this for you just now."
Waylen took it and nodded politely.
When he returned to his office, he casually tossed the box into the drawer. He hadn't thought of Rena in a long time and nearly forgot all about her after that day. Only when he felt in need of sexual release did he think about her.
He would think of her slender waist, her pretty face, and her long, straight legs.
Over the next few days, Rena was very busy.
She met up with Hyatt, and fortunately, he was a very capable lawyer.
He knew exactly how to deal with the case after meeting with Rena several times.
In his bright, spacious office, Hyatt carefully looked over the materials Rena had supplied him with and said with a gentle smile,
"Waylen asked me to help you, so I'll be honest with you. Best case scenario, your father's sentencing can be lessened to two years."
Rena forced a wry smile, but she still had mixed feelings about this verdict.
Hyatt leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed.
“May I ask why Waylen didn't take on this case himself? If he was the one who handled your case, your father would very likely be found innocent."
Rena couldn't tell him what had happened between her and Waylen, so she came up with a perfunctory excuse.
"Oh, he's too busy lately."
"I see." Hyatt nodded with a smile.
He politely escorted Rena to the door. Rena was very grateful to him but she also knew that he was only helping her because Waylen had asked him to.
