After Rena finished adjusting Zackâs tie, she turned around and was startled by the presence of the newcomers.
No one said a word for a moment.
Roscoe, trying to lighten the mood, finally smiled and asked, âRena, is this your new boyfriend?â
Rena remained silent, but Zack beamed with joy and replied, âIâm with Miss Gordon every day.
I pick her up for work, drop her off, and I even live in Mrs.
Gordonâs house.
And she bought me this lovely suit! Does that make me her boyfriend?â
Zack intentionally said this to stun Roscoe.
Roscoe, perceiving Zack as a gigolo, chuckled and said, âWell, Rena, I didnât know you were like this.
This one is⦠Not bad.
â After his comment, Roscoe locked at Waylen sympathetically.
Waylen skillfully took out a cigarette and raised his chin, calmly saying, âYou go ahead.
â
Roscoe left the elevator feeling embarrassed, while Waylenâs gaze lingered on Rena.
He couldnât help but ask, âDo you know who he really is?â
Rena had no interest in engaging with Waylen.
In truth, it didnât matter to her who Zack really was.
He was just a driver in her company, someone who worked and got paid.
Coincidentally, Vera called Rena at that moment, providing her with an opportunity to escape.
Zack, however, chose to stay behind.
Leaning against the aisle, he looked at Waylen lazily and remarked, âWhat a coincidence, Mr.
Fowler.
We meet again.
You convinced my father to cut me off, so now Iâve come to steal your woman.
By the way, donât even think about dealing with me the way you dealt with Tyrone.
Iâm broke now, earning a meager salary.
If you try to drive me away, Iâll pack up immediately and crawl Into Miss Gordonâs bed, letting her take care of me.
â
A faint smile appeared on Waylenâs face as he puffed out a smoke ring.
He responded, âRena wonât be interested in men who havenât even matured.

Unfazed, Zack stared back at Waylen and inquired, âIs that so? Weâll see.
Waylen, you may be handsome, but I am exceptional in bed.
â
Waylenâs eyes grew deeper.
He couldnât deny feeling jealous, but as a mature man, he knew it wouldnât be fitting to engage In a serious confrontation with a 23-year-old.
Rena gracefully trailed behind Vera as they entered the magnificent banquet hall.
Exhibiting utmost caution, Rena observed that the table they occupied was predominantly occupied by the younger members of the esteemed Figueroa family.
Rena realized Roscoe was a person of thoughtful nature to make such seat arrangements.
Upon catching sight of Rena, Robertâs mother extended a cordial greeting towards her.
With a warm smile adorning her face, Rena presented a gift to Robertâs mother.
A subtle expression crossed Robertâs motherâs countenance as she accepted the gift.
Initially, she had regarded the girl before her with a hint of disdain.
