Rena did not refute his observation.
Some memories were just not easily forgotten.
In a hushed tone, she uttered, “Waylen, we both require time.
Nodding understandingly, he proved far more approachable now than before. In this moment of seclusion, he refrained from any advances. After all, she was not only the woman he desired, but also Alexis’ mother.
The boundaries of impropriety were to be crossed at an appropriate juncture.
Coincidentally, Waylen’s phone began to ring.
Korbyn was on the other end of the line. With one hand securely resting on Rena’s waist, Waylen deftly answered the call. “Dad?”
“Return home with Rena,” Korbyn’ said, his discontent seeped through his words.
Waylen yearned to inquire about the reason behind the demand.
Korbyn insisted on speaking with Rena, imparting a few additional words. Rena nodded in agreement and affirmed, “Alright, we will be there shortly!”
The call came to an end.
Curiosity evident in his tone, Waylen inquired softly, “What did he say?”
Rena whispered, her words barely audible, “The members of the Coleman family are causing a commotion. They want me to participate in the marrow donation process for Lyndon!”
Anger surged within Waylen.
Even if Rena were a suitable candidate for the marrow donation, why should she do it for Lyndon?
Observing his reaction, Rena smiled and asked, “It seems you dislike him now, don’t you?”
Waylen shed his bathrobe, preparing to change into more formal attire.
In Rena’s presence, he donned a shirt and suit pants, taking a moment to elucidate, “You’ll understand once we return! In any case, there was an unpleasant incident earlier. Presently, my father has distanced himself from Lyndon!”
Rena surmised that there must be more to the story.
The trio made their way back to the Fowler family residence.
As they entered, they were met with Ann causing a commotion.
Elvira and Dahlia were also present.
Amidst tears, Ann cried out, “If it weren’t for Lyndon saving Cecilia, he wouldn’t be infertile now. His health is now deteriorating. I implored Rena to undergo the marrow donation process, but you are unwilling. How ungrateful!”
Waylen handed Alexis over to Rena, ensuring her comfort.
