Chapter: 431
Hadn't Vera assured her that he wouldn't be present?

Rena's gaze fixated on Vera, her eyes filled with a mix of shock and anger.

A wave of guilt washed over Vera, consuming her.

She never anticipated the sudden appearance of Waylen, especially considering his disdain for Joseph.

Driven by remorse, Vera took it upon herself to ensure Rena was distanced from Waylen.

However, just as Rena settled down, removing her coat and preparing to relax, Waylen approached, his presence commanding attention

Observing this, those around Rena tactfully made space, subtly acknowledging the unspoken dynamics between Waylen and Rena.

Without hesitation, Waylen took a seat directly beside Rena, his actions conveying a nonchalant confidence.

The occupants of the private room were all aware of the previous connection shared between Waylen and Rena, leading to a collective silence that permeated the atmosphere.

Yet, Waylen appeared unfazed, his demeanor relaxed as he reclined on the sofa, casually initiating a conversation with Rena, his words laced with ease.

"How have things been going for you lately?"

Rena's gaze remained fixed on the LCD screen, attempting to respond in a calm and composed manner, desperate to avoid any indication of lingering emotions. She did not want to give him the impression that her feelings still lingered.

“I'm doing well," she uttered, her words concise yet carrying an undertone of restraint.

A faint smile graced Waylen's Lips

His response was measured.

“That's good. It seems our decision to part ways was a wise one.”

Rena chose silence as her reply.

The remnants of her affection for Waylen had rekindled upon seeing him again.

Anxious not to engage in prolonged conversation, Rena refrained from divulging too much, fearing that he would uncover her hidden sentiments.

Soon, the gathering transitioned into playing games and Waylen eagerly joined in, while Rena remained seated, engrossed in her phone. Faintly, she overheard the group engaging in a game of Truth or Dare, wherein a courageous woman boldly professed her love for Waylen.

Yet, her proclamation was met with rejection from Waylen.

A sense of boredom enveloped Rena, exacerbated by her proximity to Waylen, intensifying her discomfort.
