Chapter 105
Within the confines of the bathroom, she twisted the tap, allowing cold water to cascade over her visage.
Seeking solace, she endeavored to regain composure.
She urgently needed to resolve the issues that had been divulged by Aline.
Moreover, she harbored no intention of disclosing it to Waylen. She had already burdened him excessively. Understanding the dynamics of their relationship, she couldn’t perpetually seek his aid.
His time was precious, after all!
Rena undertook the task of regulating her mood and emerged from the room.
Unexpectedly, the table was adorned with a lavish spread, surpassing the culinary prowess of her own cooking.
Waylen nonchalantly remarked, “I enlisted the services of the cook from the Fowler family estate to cater this meal.”
After pondering for a moment, he continued, “If you find cooking burdensome, I can request Claribel to prepare dinner instead.”

In truth, their intimate encounters went beyond mere kisses.
Rena blushed, perplexed as to why he broached the subject during their meal.
Following their dinner, Rena tidied up the table and switched on her phone to watch the screenshots she took.
She was now lucid, realizing the arduousness of suing Aline. Aline proved to be remarkably cautious, employing a plethora of ambiguous words, which actually did not constitute a crime of slander no matter how suggestive the situation looked.
Damn it!
A pallor crept over Rena’s countenance; she refused to accept defeat.
A slender hand snatched her phone, Waylen peered at the screen and casually remarked, “Indeed, you cannot legally pursue her.”
Rena hesitated, compelled by instinct to inquire, “Did you already know?”
