NovelBarWaylen’s eyes held depth as he replied, “I’ll stay with you.
Rena lowered her head and absently toyed with her phone. “Let me take care of the booking. I’ll be occupied with work in the coming days and might not have much time to spend with you.”
Her phone was gently taken from her grasp.
Waylen’s expression turned serious as he asserted, “I won’t disturb you.”
Rena fell silent, her gaze fixed on the elevator, waiting as the doors opened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe party had reached its conclusion, and a sea of people swarmed around. The confined space of the elevator made Rena feel uneasy, squeezed against the wall.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and enveloped her, drawing her into a protective embrace.
Rena found herself momentarily stunned.
Waylen…
Forced to lean against his chest, her face tenderly brushed against his clothing. When she raised her eyes, she caught sight of his prominent Adam’s apple, a captivating sight that exuded a captivating allure.
Waylen cast his gaze downward, his eyes obscured by an impenetrable darkness, harboring a brewing storm of emotions.
Indeed, once he stepped foot into her hotel room, the facade of elegance he had displayed at the party shattered.
Rena found herself pinned against the sturdy door, his body leaning in, one leg planted firmly to imprison her, leaving her no means of escape.
Averting her face, Rena inquired, “Waylen, what do you intend to do?”
With a gentle touch, Waylen caressed her delicate countenance and asked in a hoarse voice laced with a tinge of anguish, “Rena, do you still hold resentment toward me for what transpired with Tyrone?”
Rena remained silent for a moment, the weight of such a night seemingly primed for an outburst.
Both he and she were on the verge of eruption.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe turned to meet his gaze and spoke with a soft yet resolute voice. “I am bothered by what happened to Tyrone, and it has nothing to do with our relationship but it does speak of the disparity in our status… Just as you’re aware, I was on the verge of departing for Flirean at that time. I couldn’t hold onto you, and I had to witness you repeatedly seeking out Elvira. Instead of lamenting, I was forced to leave Duefron behind to fulfill your desires and your first love. Isn’t that inequality? If we were an ordinary couple, we would have already engaged in fiery arguments. But we can’t, because you are Waylen. The same holds true for what transpired between Tyrone and Hyatt. You relish the control that your position affords you, while I, a mere nobody, am expected to acquiesce, am I not?”
Having uttered these words, tears welled up in Rena’s eyes.
In truth, Rena had long believed that Joseph and Vera’s divorce was an unattainable outcome due to Waylen’s intervention.
Waylen had been waiting for Rena.
Just like that, she had pleaded with him and he had assisted Vera. Some matters were better left undisturbed.
But now that they had reached this point, they should cease discussing matters of love.
Waylen’s heart sank.
