Cecilia rushed over to Waylen and latched onto his arm.
The moment Cecilia saw her elder brother in the Evans familyâs house, she burst into joy.
Waylen held Cecilia in his arms and hugged her tight.
Then, he shot a look at Albert and sneered, âYou just said you wanted to be the other man, right?â
Albert remained silent, his eyes fixed on Waylen the entire time.
Although Albert had fascinated some women with his handsome face, he had to admit that Waylen was rather outstanding.
Waylen had an air of regality about him that made him stand out from the rest.
After being quiet for a while, Albert twitched his mouth and asked, âWhat?
Are you scared or something?â
Waylen was unfazed by Albertâs c@@ky attitude.
He simply took out a cigarette and lit it before taking a long drag.
Slowly, his eyes narrowed at Albert as he let out an arrogant chuckle.
âWhy would I be scared? Iâm afraid Rena wonât be pleased to hear that.
Apart from valuing too much on virtue, sheâs perfect in every way.
â
Albert gnashed his teeth for a second before recovering his cool.
âMr.
Fowler, I heard you used to be a lawyer before.
That explains why youâre so sharp-tongued.
â
âWell, I donât think Iâm eloquent enough,â Waylen teased sarcastically.
âBut let me lay this clear to you.
Rena appreciates mature men.
You, on the other hand, are just a little boy.
Go on and practice some more.

Albert and Waylen continued their tit-for-tat, their words resembling swords clashing against each other.
Cecilia, who was listening to the entire exchange, was speechless.
After a while, Mark came back ahead of time alongside Rena and Renaâs children.
Mark was holding Alexis in his arms.
He liked Alexis dearly.
Alexisâ tender face was leaning on Markâs shoulder.
From time to time, she would call him in an affectionate tone.
Mark held Alexisâ hand and gave it a weak squeeze.
When approaching Albert and Waylen, Mark looked around and breathed in the atmosphere.
âItâs a beautiful day, isnât it?â
The moment Albert saw Mark, he straightened his back and immediately stopped arguing with Waylen.
He turned to Mark and performed a respectful bow.
