Chapter: 450
Pausing, he glanced at Claribel and instructed, “Today, focus on tidying up the bedroom. Organize the walk-in closet and pack Rena's clothing. And the jewelry... Jazlyn knows what to do."
As Claribel absorbed this information, she realized that Waylen and Rena's relationship had truly come to an end.
A tinge of sadness washed over her.
Having witnessed Waylen's affectionate treatment towards Rena, including their intimate encounters in the mornings, she couldn't help but wonder why they had abruptly separated.
After a brief pause, Claribel inquired, her voice laced with uncertainty, “What should I do with the packed clothes? Should I simply discard them?"
Waylen paused, his thoughts momentarily halted.
“Set them aside somewhere! I haven't yet determined how to handle them," he asserted.
Claribel inquired, her curiosity piqued, “And what about the piano?
It's a gracious gift from you to Miss Gordon, purportedly named Louis XII. I've heard it's quite costly! Since you don't play the piano, should you request Jazlyn's assistance in managing it as well?"
Waylen found himself at a loss for words.
"That piano is known as Morning Dew," he finally murmured, his voice soft and restrained.
Claribel's lips curled, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
Waylen directed his gaze towards the Morning Dew piano, his eyes lingering upon it. After a while, he murmured with a casual tone, "You need not concern yourself with it."
Claribel refrained from further inquiries.
Waylen, reluctant to discard Rena's belongings, was obviously still harboring feelings for her.
Claribel speculated that he might even attempt to reconcile with her, imploring her to return.
Undeterred, Claribel resumed her work.
Waylen, Lost in thought, absentmindedly cradled a cup of coffee in his hand.
In the subsequent week, Waylen found himself succumbing to a detrimental habit. He would routinely tail Rena after work, feigning coincidental encounters.
On occasion, he shadowed Rena to her favored locales.
Other times, he trailed Rena to the music bar and restaurant frequented by Robert.
Although Waylen and Robert were not personally acquainted, their families maintained some level of connection, fostering a degree of familiarity.
