Waylen wasnât content with just posting the photo.
He added a teasing line that said, âDo you find it appealing?â
Renaâs face flushed, a mix of irritation and embarrassment igniting within her.
How utterly shameless he could be.
And how on earth did he manage to Locate her WhatsApp account? This person was beyond audacious, but⦠Despite her anger, Rena found herself gazing at the image once more.
There was no denying that even in his rogueishness, Waylen possessed a distinct charm, one that was undeniably captivating.
With a determined click, Rena deleted the photo from her screen.
She knew she had to address this with Waylen.
Just because there was no foreseeable future with Harold didnât mean she was willing to tolerate Waylenâs advances.
What was more, her fatherâs unexpected announcement about joining the Fowler Group had left Rena feeling unsettled.
She couldnât shake the sensation that she was somehow becoming Waylenâs target.
In the stillness of the midnight hour, Renaâs restlessness intensified.
Unable to quell the heat that seemed to surge within her, she threw back her covers and hurried to the bathroom.
Peeling off her pajamas, she stood there in nothing but pale pink lingerie, her gaze fixed on her reflection in the mirror⦠Her figure was lithe and graceful.
Her long, chestnut hair cascaded over her shoulders like a rich waterfall, enhancing her natural allure.

Wherever she trod, curious eyes followed her every move.
Among the onlookers was Aline, a girl who never missed an opportunity to belittle Rena.

Turns out youâre just a snob.

Refusing to back down, Rena retorted, âAnd how is that any of your concern?â
Aline stood momentarily stunned by Renaâs defiance.
Just then, Vera and Joseph approached, their timely arrival catching the tail end of the exchange.
Vera, always a staunch supporter of Rena, couldnât resist a sharp retort.
