Chapter: 1047
Rena smiled faintly in response to his words.
Joseph’s eyes held depth. “Rena, you have truly changed a lot.”
After all, Joseph and Rena had known each other since they were young. After more than a decade, he couldn’t help but feel emotional as they interacted.
Rena maintained her smile.
She promised to invest 200 million dollars in Joseph’s company, appearing composed during their conversation.
‘As he observed Rena’s face, Joseph’s thoughts wandered to Vera.
As they sat in silence, another person joined them.
It was Waylen.
‘As soon as Vera and Roscoe had showed up at the ward, Waylen came to keep Rena company, afraid she would be saddened by her solitude.
Unexpectedly, Rena and Joseph seemed to have a pleasant conversation.
Waylen couldn’t help but feel a tinge of jealousy. He thought Rena was so attractive that she could easily flirt with other men if she wished…
Asserting his position, Waylen asked in a soft voice, “Why did you sit here for so long?”
Joseph was an asshole.
But being a man himself, he couldn’t overlook Waylen’s jealousy. Feeling somehow satisfied, he thought that what goes around comes around. He was eager to see how Waylen would pursue Rena.
Joseph stood up and said attentively, “Il go to the Exceed Group in a few days and sign the contract.”
Rena nodded in response.
Once Joseph left, Waylen wasted no time asking, “Is he trying to win you over?”
“What’s it to you?” Rena didn’t want to engage in conversation with Waylen. She wrapped her shawl around herself and stood up…
Waylen caught her wrist, urgently pleading, “Rena!”
Rena pushed his hand away, showing her determination
When she passed the ladies’ room to leave the cafe, Waylen caught up with her, grabbed her hand and pulled her inside.
Behind the closed door, she dared not shout, so she said in a hushed voice, “Waylen, are you crazy?”
