“Yes, and no. Waylen, | want her to marry for love instead of settling for Edwin’s sake. You know what? No matter how young and beautiful a woman is, if she enters the dating pool as a single mother, she’ll probably have a hard time finding genuine love.”
Rena didn’t want Cecilia to face such challenges.
Seeing how sad Cecilia was earlier, Rena knew she agreed on going on the blind date for her parents’ sake.
Rena’s identity was subtle, so she told Waylen these words to make him pay more attention to this matter.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWaylen kept silent for a long time, absorbing Rena’s words.
He held her close, gently stroking her earlobe. “Rena, have you married for love? Can you tell me?”
Rena lowered her voice and replied, “I’m talking about Cecilia.”
Waylen smiled faintly, understanding her answer.
He leaned over and kissed her passionately. “Let her go on the blind date. It might be good for her, and it might also help her and Mark sort out their feelings. If Mark can remain calm, it means they aren’t right for each other,” he said, trying to reassure Rena.
Though she appreciated his perspective, Rena knew her uncle better than that.
As she looked at Waylen, she remained motionless, her thoughts still consumed by Cecilia’s happiness.
After a long time, Waylen playfully pulled Rena’s ear and said, “Are you in a daze? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Rena still didn’t move.
He had always been lustful. Now, she was sitting in his arms with messy clothes. He couldn’t help but want more than just making out with her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRena finally came back to the present moment and blushed, realizing their slightly disheveled state. “You haven’t fully recovered yet. Behave yourself… We’ll do it when you’re well, okay?” Rena said, trying to divert his attention.
Waylen let out a soft chuckle. “You know I can’t resist you.”
Before anything else could happen, footsteps came from the stairs, and the servant announced, “Mr. and Mrs. Fowler, Mr. Evans is here.”
Rena was obviously stunned.
She looked at Waylen and asked, “It’s so late. Why is Uncle Mark here?”
Waylen straightened up his clothes and said in a low voice, “It must be something important. I’ll go downstairs first. Go and change your clothes before you follow.”
Rena nodded in agreement, feeling intrigued and apprehensive about the unexpected visit.
In the hall of the villa, crystal lights lit up the huge space.
