The experts had exhausted all their options and Rena still didnât wake up.
That was until a beautiful spring night.
The air filled with a sense of renewal and hope that very night, and Rena finally woke up.
Waylen had just concluded his discussion with the experts and returned to the ward when he suddenly heard Renaâs voice, slightly weakened but undeniably hers.
His heart skipped a beat.
A yearning like never before had been coursing through him.
He hastened his steps and gently pushed open the door.
Rena sat against the head of the bed, engaged in conversation with Eloise.
She appeared thinner, her long brown hair cascading over her delicate shoulders.
A profound sense of pity washed over Waylen as he took in her appearance.
However, Renaâs smile faded upon seeing Waylen, and the atmosphere became tense.
Eloise, sensing the tension, stood up uneasily and suggested, âYou two should talk.
â ,
Rena grabbed Eloiseâs sleeve and whispered, âMom, I want some soup.
â
Eloise responded lovingly, âIâll go get it for you.
Just wait here.
â
Eloise left the room, leaving Waylen and Rena alone.
Waylen approached Rena slowly, standing by her side.
He was so close to her, yet he dared not touch her.
The proximity only intensified his inner turmoil.
With calmness and politeness, Rena spoke up.
âI heard that you helped me find doctors.
Thank you, Mr.
Fowler.

âIt was my pleasure,â he replied, his voice hoarse as he stared at her greedily .
Rena looked back at him, and then she said slowly, âHowever, thereâs no need for any of this between us.
You donât have to take Veraâs words to heart.
Itâs all in the past.
From the moment we broke up, my problems ceased to concern you.
â
Waylen was a skilled and articulate lawyer in the courtroom.
However, he found himself at a loss for words right now.
He had believed their breakup had been amicable, not realizing the extent of Renaâs pain.
Leaving the ward, Waylen didnât leave the hospital premises.
He satin his golden Bentley Continental GT, smoking silently.
The attraction between Rena and him had blossomed during their adult years, notin their youth.
He had always managed their relationship with ease.
While he had cared for Rena, he had never thought he loved her deeply.
When they had broken up, he had even given her a check directly.
Yet, when Rena had walked out of his life with that check, Waylen realized the unbearable truth.
He couldnât bear the thought of Rena belonging to someone else someday.
He couldnât bear the idea of her falling in love with someone as she had fallen in love with him.
