The sleek vehicle came to a halt right outside Rena’s elegant apartment.

Expressing his desire, Zack stated, “I am utterly fatigued and yearn for a peaceful slumber within your sanctuary.”

However, Rena promptly declined, her response brimming with wittiness.

She lightly retorted, “If you find my mother’s residence unsuitable for your rest, perhaps the streets would serve you better as a bed.”

Zack’s frustration intensified to the point that he clenched his teeth in anger.

Venting further, he added, “In that case, you must grant me a share of that colossal sum of 20 million dollars. Don’t try to keep it all for yourself.”

After pausing to ponder, Rena cogitated for a moment before disclosing, “Mr. Carson bestowed upon me the generous sum of 20 million dollars solely to guide you.”

Consequently, she harbored no intention of parting with a single penny from that extravagant fortune.

A mocking sneer escaped Zack’s lips as he abruptly exited the vehicle. Gazing intently at Rena, he uttered, “You… You…”

Unperturbed, Rena disregarded his presence and walked towards the elevator Zack still harbored an inclination to berate her but, upon witnessing her resolute departure, he found himself inexplicably silenced.

A tinge of melancholy veiled her countenance…

Huh!

Zack was sure that Rena still held feelings for Waylen. Mutual affection existed between the two, albeit concealed behind a facade of reservation. Zack pondered that if he were enamored with a woman, he would sweep her off her feet and shower her with passionate kisses.

He believed there was nothing a passionate kiss couldn’t fix!

Returning to the vehicle, Zack hopped in, initially intending to seek amusement.

However, tonight his mind remained consumed by the haunting image of that sorrowful woman.

Damn it!

She cast a gloomy shadow on his spirits.

He couldn’t summon the slightest interest in venturing out for leisure…

As Rena reentered her apartment, Snowball, her loyal companion, bounded toward her, having missed her presence throughout the entire day.

Rena took Snowball downstairs for a leisurely stroll. After approximately thirty located a bench, settled upon it and dialed Vera’s number. An underlying uneasiness lingered within her, refusing to dissipate.

After a considerable delay, Vera finally answered the phone, her voice tinged with hoarseness, as if she had shed tears.

In a gentle tone, Rena uttered, “Allow me to be your companion during these difficult days.”

Shaking her head, Vera replied, “I’ll be fine. Attend to your own affairs. Starting a business is no easy task. You work diligently. Don’t concern yourself with my trivial matters. Some of the money I invested in your music studio is intended for my retirement.”
