The mature man’s stare made Aline’s legs go weak, but she held on. At this time, Waylen chuckled and replied, “Is that so?”
Aline didn’t know what he meant.
Waylen then said seriously, “Miss Hanson, it’s not my business what my wife wants to do. If I interfere with whatever is going on between you and Rena, Rena will be unhappy, and that unhappiness will destroy our relationship.”
Aline was stunned.
Waylen narrowed his eyes and continued, “You’ve dreamed of Harold, haven’t you? You have to ask yourself what you have done to merit Rena’s wrath.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer dream… Aline’s face turned bone-white. Waylen looked at her expression and sneered.
Then, he dropped his finished cigarette and stubbed it with the toe of his shoe. Once again, he turned to Aline and said, “Rena almost died, Miss Hanson, and we haven’t found out who’s responsible. Now I want to say something to you. If anything happens to Rena again, I will hunt down whoever tried to hurt her and make that person pay. So you better behave yourself.”
He spoke vaguely, so Aline couldn’t figure out what he meant. But Aline didn’t dare to hurt Rena again. Waylen left.
Aline remained standing there. Wearing only a dress, she couldn’t help shivering in the cold.
About ten minutes later, Rena and Waylen walked out of the hotel. They looked very much in love.
Waylen took off his wool overcoat and draped it over Rena’s shoulders. He wrapped one arm around his wife’s waist.
Witnessing this, Aline thought that absence indeed made the heart grow fonder.
When Rena was about to get into the car, Aline called her name from a distance, “Rena!”
Rena turned around. Aline was really scared at this time.
She tried to kill Rena before, but Rena survived, and Aline went to a lot of trouble to destroy evidence of her wrongdoing.
Now the entire Fowler family was hostile toward Aline.
Aline figured that she had to flatter Rena.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRena didn’t get in the car immediately. She watched Aline approach her. She really wanted to hear what Aline had to say.
Once more, the cold night wind blew.
Rena leaned on Waylen’s shoulder and looked at the plain woman in front of her.
Aline lowered her head and said in a low voice, “Let us be reconciled, Rena.”
It made Rena feel disgusted. But she didn’t show it.
With a sneer, she replied, “Aline, I don’t understand what you mean. We have never had a conflict.”
Aline’s face darkened.
