Ultimately, Rena decided to take the company limo. She opened the car door and said to Waylen, “I’ll take the company car. Please go home and keep Alexis and Marcus company.
Marcus has been able to see objects more than 20 centimeters away for a few days. You should play with him more to help his development.”
Waylen put his palm on the back of her hand.
His dark eyes were deep. “I’ve already spoken with your driver. We’re going in the same direction anyway. | can drop you off at the party.”

Waylen knew that she was being sarcastic.
He didn’t want to pretend anymore. He leaned in and whispered to her, “Never ride in the same car with him again, okay? Remember to avoid giving him special treatment. | don’t want that man getting the wrong idea when it comes to you, Mrs. Fowler.”
In the end, Rena allowed Waylen to give her a ride to the party.
A hardworking man like him should get a reward from time to time.
She got in his passenger seat and fastened her seat belt. Waylen looked at her and muttered with a grin, “You look gorgeous in that outfit.”
The dress under her coat was indeed stunning.
Rena lowered her eyes and said, “You used to tell me that a lot.”
Waylen’s eyes darkened. After a while, he beamed and replied, “It seems that my aesthetic standards haven’t changed after all.”
Rena turned away and looked out the window. “Well, I’ve always been beautiful.”

Waylen’s heart skipped a beat. He chuckled and didn’t say anything.
The snowy weather lent the air inside Waylen’s vehicle a romantic feel.
Sitting next to Waylen, Rena couldn’t help thinking about how happy she and Waylen would’ve been if Elvira hadn’t been released on medical parole. Tragedy never would’ve struck, and Waylen still would’ve been the man with whom she fell in love.
Tears welled up in Rena’s eyes.
All of a sudden, Waylen pumped the brakes.
He cursed under his breath, opened the door, and got out of the car. He walked toward the hood of the car.
After being stunned for a while, Rena got out of the car as well.
