Gently clasping Renaâs foot, Eloise offered words of care, saying, âEnsure proper healing, dear.
Let there be no lingering repercussions.
â
In an attempt to conceal her true emotions, Rena feigned composure and replied, âItâs just a minor wound; itâs not a big deal.
â
Observing Renaâs gradual ability to move with measured steps, Eloise refrained from dwelling too deeply on the matter.
Continuing to administer the comforting warmth to Renaâs foot, Eloise approached the conclusion of the procedure and hesitated before saying,
âWaylen has been waiting downstairs for quite some time.
Would you like to see him?â
Rena was taken aback, momentarily stunned by the suggestion.
After a brief pause, she gently shook her head and responded, âIâll speak with him in a few days.
Iâm not emotionally ready at the moment.
â
Respecting Renaâs decision, Eloise refrained from pressing further.
Tenderly touching Renaâs head, Eloise spoke words of comfort, saying, âI may not know the intricacies of your situation but I wholeheartedly support any choices you make⦠Seek a deserving partner.
If this man falls short, seek another.
Your Mr.
Right will surely come your way.
â ,
Renaâs smile in response to Eloiseâs words brought a sense of relief to Eloiseâs heart.
Time swiftly passed and soon a week had gone since Darrenâs passing, with Renaâs feet nearly restored to full health.
Accompanied by Eloise, Rena made her way to pay respects at Darrenâs final resting place.
The sun beamed brightly, illuminating the vibrant flowers strewn around.

Resting before Darrenâs and Reinaâs tombstone was a bouquet of freshly picked lilies.
Eloise surmised that Lyndon had left them there.
Casting a glance at Rena, who discarded the bouquet nonchalantly and instead placed a handful of daisies, she couldnât help but emit a soft sigh,
They lingered in the cemetery for an extended period, emerging only when the approaching noon signaled their departure.
At the cemeteryâs entrance, a resplendent golden Bentley Continental GT stood parked and Waylen leaned against it, engrossed in his cigarette.
Despite being surrounded by the cheerful spring breeze, an air of gloom enveloped him.
His physique had slimmed down, yet his handsomeness remained undiminished.
Rena couldnât evade the situation any longer, she needed to convey her thoughts to him clearly.
Approaching Waylen, whose eyes held a profound gaze, she initiated their interaction.
He said, his voice filled with tenderness, âAllow me to drive you back.
â
Recognizing Renaâs desire for closure, Eloise interjected, âIâll get a cab.
Rena, you have a conversation with him.
â
Rena nodded, cautioning Eloise to take care on her way back.
