With Veraâ âs assurance, Rena readily agreed.
The conversation continued, and Vera shared some gossip.
âDo you know, Rena? Elvira has returened to Braseovell! Joseph let slip that she had a fight with her fianceâs mistress, and it turned ugly.
Elvira ended up in the hospital.
â
Rena was taken aback.
Vera gleefully commented, âElvira got what she deserved!
I heard the mistress was a servant from the Coleman family.
She must be quite skilled in pleasing men.
â
Rena didnât wish to hear more and excused herself saying, âI have something to attend to.
I should leave now.
â
Concerned, Vera reminded her, âDonât forget to come to the party tomorrow night.
Iâll send you the address.
â
Rena nodded.
She kept the information in mind.
The following night, Rena returned to her apartment after work and changed into a stylish gray dress, complemented by a thin overcoat.
She tied her long brown hair into a low bun, radiating beauty and grace.
However, as she entered the private room at the venue, she noticed everyone staring at her with strange expressions, remaining silent.
Rena furrowed her brows.
Confusion clouded her mind until she caught sight of a figure sitting in the corner.
It was Waylen!

He wore exquisitely tailored trousers and a dark blue shirt.
From his look, he clearly came from another formal event.
Rena furrowed her brows and glanced at Vera.
Hadnât Vera assured her that he wouldnât be present?
Renaâs gaze fixated on Vera, her eyes filled with a mix of shock and anger.
A wave of guilt washed over Vera, consuming her.
She never anticipated the sudden appearance of Waylen, especially considering his disdain for Joseph.
