Just before Rena departed, Jazlyn received the breakfast and clothes, even extending an invitation for Rena to join her upstairs.
Rena graciously declined, stating, “No, thank you. I have to visit the hospital later.”
Engaged in light conversation for a few moments, Rena bid Jazlyn farewell and departed.
After that, Jazlyn ascended the stairs with the breakfast and clothes, presenting them to Waylen. Having toiled through the night, his hunger had awakened. He quickly showered and changed his clothes in the lounge.
Emerging from the shower, he felt rejuvenated and full of energy.

After finishing his breakfast, Waylen sent a message to Rena, surprising her.
“Didn’t you buy shirts for me yesterday? Why didn’t you send them instead?”
Rena hadn’t anticipated his message, and the contact from him made her blush with shyness. Without hesitation, she replied, “I didn’t buy shirts for you Mr. Fowler.”
The man held his phone, a smile forming on his lips. He appreciated her modesty.

Rena couldn’t fathom the depth of Aline’s animosity towards her.

Silence hung in the air as Vera expressed her concern, asking, “Has Waylen agreed to help you?”
Rena chose not to hide the truth and replied softly, “He mentioned attending the school reunion with me the night before yesterday, but he’s been incredibly busy now since he took a new case. I’m afraid he won’t have the time to accompany me.”
Vera found herself torn between laughter and frustration.
With a smile, she scolded, “You’re being naive! No matter how busy he is, he can always spare a few hours if he wants to. Let me enlighten you: if you want a man to help you, you must first make him happy and comfortable.”
Make him comfortable?
A blush crept up her cheeks. She was too embarrassed to admit that she had not experience with intimacy, nor had anything actually happened between her and Waylen yet.
With a sly smile on her lips, Vera teased, “You must let Waylen attend it with you”
