Chapter: 272
“Rena, you're incredible! It must have taken tremendous effort to secure this contract, am I right?"

Paisley, though single, could still comprehend the tremendous effort

Rena must have exerted to secure such a generously low rent for the office from Waylen.

Rena nervously brushed her hair aside and awkwardly replied, "No, he actually took the initiative to offer it to me."

Paisley expressed her contentment.

She remarked, “It's only right to Look out for yourself. Since he can't provide any promises, it's only fair that he compensates you materially. Thank you so much, Rena."

Paisley possessed a straightforward nature. After careful consideration, she decided to increase Rena's share to 40%.

Rena considered it to be a fair arrangement.

They savored their coffee with delight, engaging in lively conversation.

Paisley had heard some rumors and was aware of Rena's close relationship with Vera. Unable to contain herself, she divulged,

“Didn't Vera's husband turn over a new leaf? Why did I spot him with

Aline in a hotel last night?"

Rena paused, her thoughts momentarily drifting away

After a brief moment of contemplation, she gently stirred her coffee and replied, "Perhaps Vera is unaware of it."

Paisley, being an outsider, knew it was not her place to say much about the matter.

However, Rena couldn't shake off her persistent thoughts.

As she entered her car, she decided to call Vera. To her surprise, it was Vera who took the initiative to address the issue.

“Rena, do you want to inquire about what has been happening between Joseph and Aline lately?"

Rena let out a sigh, feeling the weight of the situation.

In a trembling voice, Vera confessed, “I know he is a deceitful man but

I love him. Besides, my family has relied on him all these years. I know you might Look down on me but... But please don't try to convince me to get a divorce. I can't bear to divorce! As long as he doesn't bring Aline into our home, I will turn a blind eye to it."

Despite Vera's strong stance, Rena couldn't help but feel compelled to support her best friend
