A warm smile played upon Waylen’s lips at the thought of Roscoe and Vera as he remarked, “Ah, this couple.

Returning the smile, Jazlyn added, “Rena will be attending the event as well.”

Suddenly, the invitation in Waylen’s hand took on an extraordinary value. He examined it nonchalantly before saying, “You’ve been working diligently under my employ for many years. It’s high time we give you a raise. Oh, by the way, your birthday is next month, isn’t it? Treat yourself to a nice gift and be sure to take the recipe to the finance department later.”

Grateful, Jazlyn beamed and replied, “Thank you, Mr. Fowler.”

With the desire to reward herself, Jazlyn later selected a necklace worth a staggering 160, 000 dollars. She believed she deserved such indulgence.

Having bid her farewell, Jazlyn departed, leaving Waylen to wander to the French window in solitude. Gazing out below, he contemplated his thoughts.

Approximately ten minutes later, his trembling fingers extracted a cigarette from his pocket, igniting it with care.

Taking a long, deliberate drag, he closed his eyes, surrendering to a gentle moment of respite.

She had finally returned…

On a Saturday night, amidst the grand celebration of Roscoe and Vera’s wedding anniversary. Rena made her long-awaited appearance.

It had been quite some time since she had last seen Vera, prompting an instant embrace upon their reunion.

Clasping Rena’s hand, Vera scrutinized her from head to toe, her eyes brimming with tears.

“You wicked girl. Why did you venture so far away?”

Rena responded with a gentle smile. “For now, I won’t be leaving again anytime soon.”

Their exchange evoked a burst of laughter from Vera. “If you ever dare to leave again, I’ll break your legs!

As they conversed, Roscoe approached, his hand tenderly holding that of his four-year-old son, James. The young boy, a kindergarten student with a sturdy and amiable disposition, was instructed by his father to greet Rena.

James displayed exemplary manners, and Rena took an instant liking to him, having prepared a special gift just for him.

Observing Rena’s fondness for James, Vera leaned in and whispered, “You adore children so much. Now countless individuals pursue your affection, yet why do none of them capture your heart?”

Rena’s smile remained enigmatic as she replied, “The timing simply isn’t right.”

Before Vera could delve deeper into the matter, a commotion erupted near the entrance…

Naturally, Rena turned her gaze in that direction, only to find herself momentarily stunned.

It was Waylen.

Clearly, Waylen had also spotted her and, in that fleeting moment, their eyes locked, the world around them fading into insignificance.

For most divorced couples, three years would be sufficient to dilute any lingering emotions.
