Albert didnât believe Renaâs words.
âAre you really capable of this?â Albert asked, his eyes warily narrowing at Rena.
Rena continued tending to the roses, seemingly oblivious to Albertâs questions.
She marveled at the beauty of these stemmed roses and wondered how elegant they would look once put in a vase.
After a while, she smiled at Albert and replied, âJust wait.
â
With his nerves on edge, Albert thought about smoking, but on second thought, he decided not to.
At that moment, Waylen approached them.
A shaft of sunlight pierced through the window, making the garden feel as warm as spring.
Rena was wearing a white wool dress while quietly arranging the flowers.
Her figure looked particularly slender whenever viewed from behind, and her long brown hair cascaded down her waist like a majestic waterfall.
Had Albert not been present, Waylen wouldâve wanted to flirt with her.

Seeing her with another man, he couldnât help but feel jealous.
Nevertheless, he quietly approached her and took the vase.
âThis is gorgeous,â he said.
Rena smiled.
She then turned to Albert and said, âDonât worry.
I will fulfill my promise.
â
When Albert saw their quiet intimacy, mixed feelings brewed in his chest.
He wanted to get closer to Rena, but his brain told him to restrain himself and keep a respectable distance from her.
Eventually, he left.
Once he was gone, Waylen asked Rena, âWhy did you get along with him alone?â
Rena fiddled with the vase before shooting a glance at Waylen.
