At that precise moment, a call from Cecilia interrupted his thoughts.

Harold was perturbed and initially inclined to ignore the ringing, yet Cecilia persisted, dialing his number repeatedly, leaving him no choice but to answer.

“Harold, where are you? My hand is in pain. Could you come and take care of me? My parents are coming tomorrow to discuss our wedding date.

You can ask your mother to join us."

Harold's mind remained clouded with the image of Waylen kissing Rena.

An overwhelming sense of distress engulfed him. He responded with a detached tone, "I understand."

He terminated the call.

Resolutely, he compelled himself to cease dwelling on the matter any further. With power at his disposal, he could procure whatever his heart desired.

He vowed to never regret the decision he had made.

The following day, Rena's release from the hospital took place, marking a significant milestone in her recovery.

Clutching her phone tightly, Rena found herself caught in a moment of uncertainty, debating whether she should reach out to Waylen through a phone call or express her gratitude via a heartfelt message.

After grappling with indecision for a considerable period, she ultimately surrendered to the overwhelming uncertainty that plagued her thoughts.

Completing the necessary paperwork for her discharge, Rena prepared to go home with her Luggage before going to the music studio to continue her work.

Stepping out of the confines of the in-patient department, Rena coincidentally crossed paths with Harold's mother and sister, who were engaged in a conversation while carrying bags brimming with fresh produce.

It seemed evident that they had come to pay Cecilia a visit. Upon catching sight of Rena, their demeanor exhibited a touch of unease.

Offering a curt nod, Rena made a swift motion to continue her departure.

However, her departure was abruptly halted by Harold's mother Krista, who kindly interjected, “Rena, I have something important to discuss with you."

Interrupting the exchange, Addie tugged at her mother's sleeve, sporting a disgruntled expression, and voiced her dissatisfaction,

“Mom, my brother has ended things with her! What could you possibly want to say to her?"

Being astute, Krista possessed a keen awareness of her son's actions and her present objective was to prevent Rena from crossing paths with Harold ever again, fearing it would jeopardize his relationship with Cecilia.

Krista urged Addie to depart.

Reluctantly, Addie stamped her feet in frustration and grumbled before exiting.
