Chapter 97: Chapter 97

Nonetheless, she chose nol to evade his presence and engaged in a conversation with Vera.

“Hello!” she greeted.

Vera furrowed her brow and inquired, “Whal’s wrong with your voice, Rena?”

“What? There’s nothing wrong with it,” Rena replied.

In a jesting manner, Vera teased her, “If you weren’t single, I’d think you were being with a man!”

Rena’s cheeks flushed and she playfully scolded her friend.

With a smile, Waylen whispered in her ear, “She’s absolutely right!” 1

Apprehensive that Vera might overhear Waylen’s voice, Rena swiftly retreated to the bedroom, draping herself with a bathrobe while grasping it with one hand.

“Vera, I actually have something important to discuss with you.

Can we meet tomorrow?”

Due to Waylen’s intervention, the Gordon family’s assets had been unfrozen.

Rena felt compelled to return the money to Vera.

Upon hearing that Darren had been bailed out, Vera expressed her delight for Rena.

After engaging in pleasant conversation for a while, Vera shifted the focus of their call, stating, “I have two more things to share with you! Did you hear about the Moore Group being targeted? My husband informed me that Harold is facing significant trouble.

He may end up in jail! It serves him right! 1 can hardly contain my happiness.

”

As Vera mentioned Harold, Rena grew apprehensive, concerned that it might displease Waylen.

She turned her head to glance at him.

Waylen’s disposition appeared far from vexed as his countenance emitted a gentle smile.

With graceful poise, he extracted garments from the wardrobe before proceeding to commence his shower.

A sigh of relief escaped Rena’s lips and she persisted in conversing with Vera over the telephone

Avoiding any discourse concerning Harold, Rena steered the conversation by inquiring, “What were you just saying? What’s the other thing you wanna tell me?”

A momentary pause filled the air as Vera maintained silence, eventually breaking it with her utterance, “Our esteemed institution is poised to host a grand reunion and, rumor has it that, Aline spearheaded this initiative.

However, her underlying motivations are self-serving, for she seeks to intertwine our gathering with that of Treross University.

”

Treross University?

Treross University was the very institution from which Harold had attained his degree.

Undoubtedly, Aline would extend an invitation to him, urging his attendance at the reunion.

Rena harbored no desire to partake in such an event.

Vera, too, harbored a profound indignation, her voice elevating with a fervent exclamation.

“Aline’s vexatious antics know no bounds! She relishes in her role as a mistress, yet insists on parading her ostentation for all to witness! I believe her machinations are aimed squarely at you.

She’s been spreading word that you endured a breakup and lost your job, rendering you too apprehensive to atlend the reunion.

Rena held no inclination to squander her time on an individual of such nature.

She expressed her intention to contemplate attending the reunion and promptly ended the call.

As she lifted her gaze, she found Waylen standing by the bathroom entrance, adorned in a bathrobe, his physique exuding an air of vitality.
