Gradually, Rena regained her composure and graced Waylen with a faint smile before turning away and entering the bustling banquet hall.
Waylen's eyes bore an intensity, fixated upon her...
Rena was undeniably different from before.
Desperately desiring to engage in casual conversation with Rena, Waylen found himself disheartened by the fact that they were not seated at the same table. Surrounding him were a group of distinguished business magnates, all of whom Roscoe had painstakingly invited. Waylen's mind wandered aimlessly as he attempted to socialize and discuss matters of business with his companions
However, his gaze remained fixed on Rena.
Regret washed over Rena as she found herself in this setting.
She had never anticipated encountering Waylen so soon after her return.
Every time she laid eyes on him, a flood of unpleasant memories would resurface, causing her distress.
Throughout the night, Rena maintained a solemn silence.
Though aware of Waylen's gaze upon her, she deliberately chose to ignore it.
Later, Zack approached Rena for business matters. The clamor within the banquet hall made it difficult to converse. In a hushed tone, Zack whispered into her ear.

Waylen offered a wistful smile.
