Observing this chaotic household, Cecilia felt a mix of amusement and exhaustion.

But Waylen and Rena seemed to bask in the joy.

Waylen, despite the bustling environment, looked dapper. He always said he aimed to remain enticing for Rena, not wanting to seem as if age was catching up to him.

As Cecilia settled in, Waylen threw her a casual greeting.

He was about to start cooking when his phone rang.

It was Peter.

Eagerly expecting this call, Waylen excused himself to the garden.

“Peter, what's the news?"

Despite his relaxed demeanor, Waylen was adept at reading people.

Peter, likewise, was cunning.

Wearing his signature grin, Peter began, “I've reconsidered our last contract discussion. There's a glitch."

In the dimming light, Waylen's features remained striking.

“Oh?

What's the issue?"

Trying to sound genuine, Peter confessed, “Our finance team made a blunder; added an extra zero by mistake. It's a major discrepancy in our financial report. I've let go of that accountant. We can't have such negligence. Another expert's handling it now. Consequently, your firm's looking at an added 2% profit margin. We both stand to gain from this."

Waylen offered a quiet smile, letting Peter fill the silence.

"Accounting errors have tied us up unnecessarily," Peter sighed.

“How about this, Waylen? I'll visit the Exceed Group tomorrow, and we finalize our intent with a signature?"

Considering the proposal, Waylen replied, “I'll come to your firm instead.

Express my gratitude to Mark for the business opportunity. Children's expenses nowadays aren't cheap, especially given that we have many at home."
