He walked to the end of the corridor, dialed a number, and ordered his assistant a series of things.
His assistant was a little startled but still went to do what he was told.
Rena stood under the light in the corridor. She overheard Waylen’s phone conversation with his assistant. He was going to help Mavis get back to school and pay for her medical expenses. ©
He would keep Mavis in Duefron.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this moment, Rena felt extreme exhaustion, both physically and emotionally.
She felt that she and Waylen weren’t on the same page at all. Waylen didn’t know and would never know the kind of pain and fear through which he was putting her.
The crystal light in the corridor was bright.
Gnashing her teeth together, Rena picked up her phone and sent a message. It read, “Don’t watch her anymore. Leave her alone this instant.”
Waylen turned around after he hung up.
Rena was no longer there. The spring chill was all that was left in the long, luxurious corridor.
Waylen thought of what he had said and felt that he had spoken too strongly.
He didn’t want to have a falling out with Rena. He was willing to coax her and compromise with her. He was willing to put this matter about Mavis to bed.
Waylen knocked on Rena’s bedroom door and said, “Rena, open the door. Please.”
He waited for a few minutes, but no sound came from inside the room.

Waylen patiently waited for a few more minutes before he said in a low voice, “Please open the door. Let’s talk this over. It’s late. Do you want me making enough noise to wake up my parents? Can you please be reasonable, Rena?”
Still, there was no response.
After standing outside for a long time, Waylen decided to give up and go back to his bedroom.
Their relationship was almost at a breaking point.
It was rare for them to see each other after that night. Rena seldom gave Waylen the chance to spend time with her, and he was too proud to talk to her first.
It was the dead of night, and Waylen couldn’t fall asleep.
All he could think about was Rena. He was still deeply and madly attracted to her, and he still wanted her sobad. ©
