Chapter: 86
“We can discuss it next time," was his curt response.
Attempting to contact Rena, he found her phone turned off.
He then dialed Hyatt directly, seeking information.
Hyatt informed him of the situation and offered a knowing smile.
“Waylen, this is the perfect opportunity for you to help her.”
Waylen's smile held a tinge of bitterness.
“Don't tease me," he muttered.
After ending the call, he immediately instructed his secretary Jazlyn to book a flight for that night. The secretary, surprised by the sudden decision, argued, "But Mr. Fowler, don't forget you have the trial tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, his realization hit him Like a jolt of Lightning.
He had been working on this case for an entire month, and its outcome would be revealed on the trial the following day. He couldn't afford to leave right now.
After pondering for a moment, Waylen wrote a note for his secretary.
“Fly to Duefron tomorrow morning to find Miss Gordon. Here is her address and phone number. Ask her to call me!"
Having seen Rena before, Jazlyn smiled and commented, "Miss Gordon is truly beautiful!"
Waylen glanced at her briefly.
This caused Jazlyn to retreat, refraining from further comments.
As Jazlyn left, Waylen returned his attention to preparing for the court trial the next morning. However, he made intermittent calls to Rena every hour or two, desperately trying to reach her.
In the early hours of the morning, he booked a flight to Duefron for the following afternoon.
Regrettably, Jazlyn's flight encountered a delay due to a mechanical issue.
She attempted to reach Waylen in the Lounge but, unfortunately, his phone was powered off while he was undergoing the trial.
It wasn't until the trial's conclusion at noon that Waylen switched on his phone and finally received Jazlyn's message. Contemplation filled his expression.
His client's assistant then approached him respectfully and conveyed,
“Mr. Fowler, Mr. Williams hopes you can join him for a meal."
