I refuse to sever ties with Vera; she will always be a cherished friend to me. As for my past involvement with Waylen, I see no shame in it! If you hold a genuine interest in me, feel free to continue your investigations. Let me share an intriguing tidbit: I was once in a four-year relationship with the current son-in-law of the Fowler family! Quite fascinating, wouldn't you say?"

Winnie's countenance grew dark, her finger pointed at Rena, trembling with anger.

No one had ever dared to challenge her like this before!

Winnie directed her finger at Rena, maintaining the gesture for a moment before uttering her words.

“I shall orchestrate the dissolution of your relationship with Robert.

The Figueroa family cannot embrace a daughter-in-law of your caliber.

“You will have your desires fulfilled!"

After expressing this, Rena rose to her feet, signaling her intention to depart.

A svelte silhouette emerged from the outside, none other than Robert himself. His countenance betrayed a sense of unease.

“Mom! "

Then his gaze shifted to Rena, as if searching for something in her expression.

Rena swiftly grasped the situation.

Winnie harbored animosity towards her. Despite Robert's persistence, the matter was beyond his control.

Rena had developed some affection for him over the time.

However, given the present circumstances, she had no choice but to desist.

Rena possessed remarkable charisma as she began tenderly, addressing Robert, “Robert, I believe this is the end. A union disapproved by one's own family cannot bring forth happiness... I am grateful for your companionship during these days."

Robert was reluctant to terminate the relationship.

His face flushed with anger as he engaged in a heated argument with his mother but Winnie's resolve remained unwavering. Eventually, a Look of resignation appeared on Robert's face as he turned to Rena and murmured softly, "Shall we leave together, to a foreign land?"

He then clasped Rena‘s hand.

Rena found the proposition absurd.

She possessed too much dignity.

Should she marry into the Figueroa family, she would have been destined to suffer from her mother-in-law since even her own husband couldn't protect her.
