Chapter: 966
Throughout the social interactions, he would occasionally steal glances at Rena with such passion that it could make any woman's legs weak - Rena herself couldn't help but feel the same.
Just as the sparks between Rena and Waylen were ignited, Jazlyn suddenly approached, whispering something to Waylen.
His brows furrowed in concern.
Handing his glass to Jazlyn, he said softly, "ll go and take a look.”
And so he left.
In the midst of a conversation, Rena noticed his departure and approached Jazlyn, inquiring, "Where... did he go?"
After some hesitation, Jazlyn honestly responded, "It's Miss Coleman. She threatened to jump off the Exceed Hotel if Mr. Fowler didn't show up. If anything goes wrong today, it will cause a lot of trouble for the company." ©
Rena nodded understandingly.
She empathized with the situation, knowing that there was a history between Waylen and Elvira. The media would undoubtedly seize any unfortunate incident related to her.
Despite the concern, Rena had decided to put her trust in Waylen.
He had assured her that she would be his only woman from now on, and she believed him.
Hence, Rena had no intention of intervening. She not only trusted Waylen but also had confidence in herself. She firmly believed that the new her could captivate his attention entirely.
Rena was on the verge of mingling with the other guests, eager to enjoy the evening's festivities.
Just then, her secretary approached, informing her, "Miss Gordon, there's a phone call for you."
Waylen encountered Elvira inside an office room on the top floor of the hotel.
Two staff members were also present in the room.
Elvira had chosen to wear a stunning fiery red dress for the occasion, but her careless disregard for her private life detracted from her overall appearance. Her slender frame, combined with the vibrant dress, gave her an unsettling vibe.
Seated behind the desk, Waylen exuded a timeless handsomeness, even in his thirties.
Elvira couldn't help but recall a public relations photo where he stood contentedly with his wife and daughter, wearing a satisfied smile.
Memories of him kissing Rena in public haunted Elvira's mind, causing her tears to smudge her eyeliner. Tearfully, she pleaded, "Waylen, | refuse to believe that you'll forget our unforgettable past, or that you'll truly fall in love with Rena."
Waylen calmly lit a cigarette, his slender fingers gracefully holding the smoke between them, exuding an air of composure.
Looking at Elvira without a hint of emotion, he replied, “If you hadn't threatened to jump from this hotel, | wouldn't even be seeing you now. Elvira... | don't wish to dwell on who was right or wrong in the past. | only want to stress that you must stop pestering me."
