Chapter: 946
Waylen didn’t know what was wrong with him. It was snowing outside. Rena was a mature woman with a driver and bodyguards around her. She would be fine, but still, he wanted to see her.
It was already the middle of the night when Waylen arrived at the villa.
He got out of the car and looked up. The lights in the study on the second floor were on.
Rena was here.
He walked into the hall with the flowers in his hand. One of the servants came up to him, took his coat, and said in a low voice, “Good evening, Mr. Fowler. Mrs. Fowler has been in the study for a long time. She hasn’t even had dinner yet.”
Waylen nodded his response.
As he went upstairs to the study, he thought that Rena must be angry with him. He insisted ‘on driving her to the party earlier and then ditched her halfway there.
Women should at least be cajoled after being left like that.
In the study on the second floor.
Rena was holding a folder containing Mavis’ comprehensive background check.
Mavis was Elvira’s biological sister.
She was a smoker, had a boyfriend who knocked her up, and got an abortion when she was still a teenager.
Rena lowered her eyes and pressed her lips together in a thin line.
Mavis had such a turbulent, complicated life, but now she was pretending to be pure and innocent. And now Waylen set Mavis up with a decent job for the sake of Elvira, Mavis’ dead sister.
Rena couldn’t help feeling depressed.
She thought Waylen could be approached by anyone but Mavis.
Rena couldn’t allow such a girl to get too close to Waylen. She couldn’t allow Mavis to love him but not be able to have him as Elvira and then end up hurting her family.
Rena took the lighter from her desk drawer and then burned Mavis’ file.
She watched as the record of Mavis’ existence slowly turned to ash.
‘A few moments later, the door to the study swung open, and Waylen walked in. He frowned and asked, “What are you burning?”
Rena looked up at him.
He was still wearing that expensive designer overcoat. He was so handsome.
