She didn't want to be emotionally involved with Roscoe, but she couldn't seem to help it.

With reddened eyes, Vera implored, “Rena, I'm beyond help. But I stilt hope you can marry a good man.”

Aware of Vera's intoxicated state, Rena sighed deeply.

Taking hold of Vera's phone, she dialed Roscoe's number.

Initially assuming it was Vera, he spoke directly.

“When will you return? Luck has abandoned me and I have suffered considerable losses."

Softly, Rena interjected, "It's Rena. Vera is a Little drunk. Would you mind picking her up?"

Instantly, Roscoe discarded his cards.

“Where are you? I'll be there in no time."

Roscoe's arrival was swift. He was Lightly dressed, resembling a man of affluent heritage.

Additionally, a subtle fragrance of women's perfume Lingered about him.

Subconsciously, Rena found herself harboring a disfavor towards him.

However, upon seeing Rena, Roscoe's enthusiasm surged. He Lifted Vera into his arms and repeatedly referred to Rena as his cousin-in-Law.

Rena's tone remained flat as she stated, “I have no connection to Robert anymore. Please refrain from addressing me as such in the future."

Roscoe gazed at Rena, a smile adorning his face.

Concealing the fact that Robert had caused a domestic disturbance,

Roscoe kept the family scandal under wraps. Nevertheless, he managed to maintain a lighthearted rapport with Rena.

“You will forever be my friend, whether you are with Robert or with Waylen in the end," Roscoe declared.

Rena responded with indifference, her tone cool.

"You need not trouble yourself with my affairs."

Gently directing her gaze towards Vera, Rena uttered in a soft voice,

“Take care of Vera."
