After he left, the hall was deathly silent. No one dared to say a word for a while.

Korbyn slowly drank from his cup of tea.

Looking at his son and Rena, he finally said, “You two, come to the study with me."

With bated breath, Rena followed Waylen and Korbyn to the study on the second floor.

Obviously, Korbyn was also in a terrible mood.

But when he Looked at Rena, he was gentle and easy-going, as though he was treating a member of his family.

“Rena, kindly make us a fresh pot of tea."

Rena was a little surprised at his request.

But she wasn't an idiot. She could tell that Korbyn was treating her so nicely because he wanted something from her.

It was useless to quarrel.

Rena quietly prepared the tea.

Korbyn didn't say anything while Rena busied herself with the tea.

Instead, he watched the girl's movements quietly.

Rena looked very docile and elegant... And she looked much more well-educated and noble than Elvira.

Korbyn found himself Liking Rena very much. Besides, he too had been in love when he was young. Hurting Rena was the last thing he wanted to do, but he owed Lyndon for risking his life to save Cecilia.

And Korbyn couldn't repay Lyndon for his kindness-until now.

Rena quietly poured tea for them. Waylen's eyes followed her every movement.

Finally, he broke the ice and said directly to Korbyn, “Dad, it's not appropriate."

Korbyn held up his hand and said, "Waylen, listen to me first.”

Then he paused and lowered his head to look at the tea, as if he was lost in memory.

“Lyndon saved Cecilia's life. We wanted to pay him back, but no amount of money could express how grateful we were to him. Waylen, you don't know this, but the reason why Lyndon and Dahlia only have Elvira as an adopted child isn't just because Dahlia cannot have children, but also because Lyndon was in the ice-cold water for too long while saving your little sister. It rendered him infertile, so he can no longer have children."

Waylen and Rena were both shocked to hear this.
