Waylen hadn't expected her to be aware of this.

A faint smile graced Rena's lips as she revealed, “My mother is in the same hospital as him. She informed me earlier. Waylen, you don't have to worry about me. I had already decided long ago that I would donate my blood and bone marrow to someone in need, and I actually signed up for it in my early 2@s. My sample has been stored in the bone marrow bank, and our bone marrow types don't match at all!"

So Rena had not been entangled in these troubles.

Upon concluding her words, Waylen suddenly embraced her Startled, Rena questioned, “Waylen?"

Whispering into her ear, Waylen expressed, “Rena, can you promise me that you'll share these things with me in the future?

You can confide in me completely. I want us to be just like any ordinary couple, sharing and supporting each other through everything!"

Rena gently pushed him away and continued cooking, displaying indifference.

She replied, "Oh, is that so? Then why didn't you tell me about your affair with that female star?"

Her question trailed off as Waylen abruptly pressed her against the kitchen counter, his hands cupping the back of her head as he engaged in a passionate and impulsive kiss.

Rena found Waylen irresistibly captivating.

Their kiss was an enigmatic blend of passion and intensity.

Despite her hesitation, Rena refrained from adding fuel to the fire.

Waylen's kisses trailed from her lips to her neck, and then to the tender curve behind her ear. In a husky tone, he uttered, “Rena, you still care about me, don't you? Do I linger in your heart? You just can't find a way to forgive me yet... Am I right?"

With her hands resting on his shoulders, Rena's action was tinged with embarrassment.

Gently composed now, she whispered, “Lower me down, please. The servants will gossip and how could I face them later? Besides, we're not genuinely together."

Alexis might be young and oblivious, but the servants would surely see them and gossip.

Waylen playfully bit his lip, stating, “They're seasoned individuals, they'll understand. Besides, reconciling after a divorce is a gradual process. We're in that process now; it's natural for us to be affectionate."

Locked in an intense gaze, Rena focused on him.

With a hoarse voice, Waylen inquired, "What do you see? If you truly care for me, then just help me..."

Rena's eyes averted for a moment.

Choosing to ignore what she noticed between his legs, she teased, “Even though you're no longer a lawyer, your persuasive tongue remains intact."

Waylen chuckled.
