“So you’re not going to forgive me?” Cocking her head to the side, Rena fixed her gaze on Aline. Rena seemed to see in Aline’s eyes the evil that Aline had done.
Harold, Harrison, Vera… And Rena herself. All of them were in pain because of Aline, a vile woman who would do anything for her own gain.
Aline wanted to make peace with Rena and erase what she had done. If Rena couldn’t find evidence that Aline had done something horrible…
Rena beamed and answered, “I’ll think about it. In fact, you’re right. One more enemy isn’t as good as one more ally.”
Hearing this, Aline was quite shocked.

Rena’s tone was gentle, but the ice in her words was unmistakable.
“Otherwise, I will be very, very angry.”
Aline did appreciate a man like Waylen, but she also knew that Waylen didn’t like her at all.
So Aline gave up hitting on Waylen.
She thought that Rena’s kindness already bordered on stupidity. Now that she and Rena were reconciled, Aline was confident that she would get more chances to take advantage of Rena in the future. Once she used Rena’s connections to reach the pinnacle of her life, this little conflict would turn into a speck of forgotten historical dust.
Rena got in the car.
It was warm inside, so she took off her coat.
Waylen gently touched her belly and said, “You hate her so much. Why didn’t you leave directly?”
Rena sighed.
After a while, she said in a low voice, “I heard you the other night while you were on the phone. You said it was difficult to get evidence.” Waylen stroked her abdomen again.
“The case will be solved eventually.”

If the law couldn’t punish Aline, then Rena would employ other methods.
Waylen had a great connection with Rena, He could guess what she was thinking. He talked to her on the drive home.
When the car stopped, Rena looked out the window and was surprised.
“why did you drive here?”
It was the apartment they used to live in. Rena looked at Waylen with wide eyes. Waylen unfastened his seat belt and leaned in to kiss Rena.
He said in a hoarse voice, “Didn’t we agree to spend Christmas here together? I’ve arranged everything for the kids. My parents picked them up earlier. We can stay here all night.”
