Rena glanced at the tray.
There was a bowl of noodles and roasted turkey.
The moment she laid her eyes on them, her stomach grumbled.
She set the book aside and flashed a warm smile.
âI just donât want to reveal my trump card too soon.
â
Even though she didnât say it, Waylen immediately understood it was for Kyle.
With a smile, he helped her up and guided her toward the table.
Using her fork, Rena picked up a slice of turkey and handed it to Waylenâs lips.
âGrandma mustâve cooked this.
Come on.
Have a taste!â
Waylen took the bite.
After chewing it for a while, he found it shockingly delicious.
As he enjoyed the food, something struck him, prompting him to ask, âYou havenât spent much time with the Evans family.
How come you know that?â
Rena took another bite of turkey before leaning closer to Waylen to answer.
âActually, Iâve lived in this place for two months ever since I gave birth to Alexis.
â
This revelation caught Waylen by surprise.
He then placed his hand atop Renaâs and said in a hoarse voice, âRena, Iâm really sorry for what you have gone through.
â
It was a heavy topic, and neither of them wanted to talk about it.
Rena flashed him a warm smile.
âWaylen, itâs alright.
I donât blame you anymore.
What matters now is both of us lead carefree and happy lives together.
By your side, I feel Iâm the luckiest woman in the world.
â
Waylen gently stroked her long hair and playfully joked to ease the atmosphere, âYour majesty, thanks for being generous.
â
Rena went along with it and replied, âPlease do make it worth it.
You may leave now and entertain the guests.
Iâm doing great here.
â
Waylen brushed her cheek with his thumb before walking out of the room.
When he returned to the dining hall, it was alive with chatter.

Kyle intended to make the acquaintance of Mark, so he struck up a conversation with the latter, who returned the enthusiasm.
It didnât take long for them to know more about each other.
Waylen was well aware of Kyleâs intentions, given the latterâs being a shrewd businessman.
With a project that could strike a cooperation with Mark, Waylen decided to join their conversation.
After dinner, Zoey and Eloise took the kids to a nearby place, while the rest of the men continued drinking and talking about business.
Kyle always brought up Rena and how he wanted her to teach Albert a thing or two.
