“Of course not. I simply want you to gain more experience and be prepared for any situation that may arise in the future. Besides, even though I'm over thirty years old, one can never predict when a crush might come along. If I were to marry and have children, who would manage the affairs here? I can only rely on you."

Paisley's reasoning held merit.

Standing up, Paisley gently caressed Rena's back.

"Rena... Only your own career is truly within your control. Don't ever let it slip away."

Rena was deeply moved, her heart touched by the experience.

Following her graduation, Paisley provided immense assistance and became a steadfast companion to Rena.

Observing Paisley's retreating figure, Rena still experienced a subtle unease settling within her.

After pondering for a while, Rena proceeded towards the reception desk.

“Please assist me in checking Miss Rayne’s recent attendance," Rena politely requested the receptionist.

The receptionist responded with a smile.

Within a matter of minutes, the outcome was revealed. Over the past two weeks, Paisley had taken Leave approximately every three days.

Rena‘s suspicions intensified, stirring a growing sense of doubt within her.

However, Rena recognized that she could not intrude into Paisley's privacy without her explicit consent. Nonetheless, Rena took the initiative to handle numerous tasks at work...

Rena remained occupied until the end of her workday.

Waylen initiated a phone call.

Familiar with Waylen's intentions, Rena held the phone and responded softly, saying, "Alright."

Descending the stairs, Rena made her way to the waiting car.

Rena gazed down at her attire: a crimson wool dress elegantly complemented by a delicate white coat.

Everything was meticulously prepared, causing a slight blush to grace Rena's cheeks.

Surrendering herself to him, Rena acknowledged the vulnerability she was willingly exposing.

She dared not delve deeper into her thoughts, instead gently pressing the accelerator and embarking on her journey.

Upon arriving at Waylen's apartment, Rena had anticipated his passionate nature and insatiable desire, only to discover that he was genuinely occupied.
