Chapter: 1100
Jazlyn was perplexed by his urgent request.
Waylen didn’t sound happy, and she couldn’t understand why he was in such a hurry to come back. Could they be fighting? But she had seen Juliette recently, and the woman seemed ecstatic, hinting at a potential wedding ceremony.
That afternoon, Waylen returned to Duefron.
Rena had been avoiding him for two days straight.
On the third day, Waylen got off work ahead of time and went to the Exceed Group to meet her.
It was six o’ clock in the evening, marking the end of the work day. The employees of Exceed Group had begun heading to their respective homes.
Waylen waited in the hall, his hands clasped behind his back. He looked so handsome that the female employees that passed by him blushed and giggled. Some of them even greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Fowler.”
Waylen smiled in response.
At this time, Rena stepped out of the elevator with Wendy.
When she saw Waylen, she was stunned. She didn’t want everyone to start watching them, so she hurried over to him and asked in a low voice, “What are you doing here?”
Waylen stared intently at her.
After a while, he replied softly, “It’s Alexis’ birthday. Did you forget?”
As he spoke, he took Rena’s coat from Wendy and led Rena to the parking lot. He drove the
Rolls Royce today.
Rena hopped onto the passenger seat and thought for a while. “Let’s have dinner with your parents and Cecilia.”
Waylen fastened his seat belt.
“How about we do that another day? | promised Alexis we’d bake her birthday cake together.”
Rena didn’t say anything more. She turned to look out the window and flipped her long brown hair. Today, she had on an ensemble that complemented her skin, making it look flawless. She looked magnificent.
Waylen couldn’t help stealing glances at her.
He started the car and headed to the main road. It was rush hour, so he couldn’t drive fast.
Keeping his hands on the wheel and his eyes ahead, he asked casually, “Why did you leave early that day?”
“I had something to deal with,” Rena answered vaguely.
