Chapter: 711
Roscoe with her presence.

The extravagant affair took place in a Luxurious five-star hotel, with only four tables adorning the venue. In contrast to Robert's recent wedding, it bore an unmistakable air of tranquility. Moreover, the state of Roscoe and Vera seemed rather somber.

Rena extended her warmest wishes to the newlyweds, offering her heartfelt support.

Vera's voice quivered ever so slightly as she enveloped Rena in a tender embrace.

Roscoe's gaze fixated on Rena, his eyes reflecting a myriad of complex emotions.

Being a man, he understood the sacrifices Rena had made for Vera and him. Gratitude and guilt intertwined within him, as he acknowledged that he could never fully repay her.

Rena responded with a gentle smile directed at Roscoe, transcending the cynicism he had always exhibited.

He couldn't help but feel indebted to Rena for the rest of his life, though he had long been characterized by his skeptical nature. The weight of his debt burdened him deeply, unable to be absolved...

After exchanging a few more polite words, Rena took her designated seat, discreetly scanning the room and discovering that Waylen was absent.

She breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for his absence in the midst of such a complicated atmosphere. Even the bride and groom seemed somewhat detached, lacking genuine happiness as they toasted to their union.

However, Roscoe remained by Vera's side, clasping her hand in a show of unwavering support while wearing a strained smile.

Following the conclusion of the wedding reception, Rena made her way to the restroom.

As she washed her hands, thoughts of Roscoe and Vera intertwined, envisioning a future of happiness for the newlyweds. Just as Rena was about to turn and depart, a voice interrupted her thoughts from behind,

“Rena.”

Curiosity piqued, Rena turned her head to face the sight of Roscoe leaning nonchalantly against the corridor wall, donned in an immaculate suit and indulging in a cigarette. Witnessing Rena's attention, he promptly extinguished the tobacco, expressing his sincere gratitude towards her.

With genuine concern etched in her voice, Rena expressed, "The path you two have chosen isn't an easy one. Take good care of Vera, Roscoe."

Roscoe responded affirmatively, nodding in acknowledgment.

Unable to suppress his curiosity and worry, he couldn't help but inquire further, “How are things between you and him?"

Both of them knew precisely to whom the pronoun “him" referred.

Rena found herself momentarily taken aback, her surprise evident. After a brief pause, she mustered a faint smile and replied, "Oh, don't concern yourself with that, Roscoe. Focus on enjoying your honeymoon."

Roscoe's emotions were a whirlwind of conflicting sentiments.

He yearned to convey more but, before he could utter another word, Vera unexpectedly appeared on the other side of the corridor, her expression dazed. She questioned Roscoe, her voice trembling, “What were you just discussing, Roscoe?"
