With a few exchanged words, Rena took the opportunity to visit Harrison. This was their first meeting since the incident, imbuing the situation with complexity.
Harrison found himself in a quandary, his feelings for Rena a mix of affection and resentment.
Understanding Harrison’s sentiments, Rena knew she had to draw a clear boundary.
Wendy brought a lunchbox, filling the room with a delectable aroma.
With a smile, Rena said, “You’ve received plenty of fruits and tonics. This is homemade meat porridge. It’s a favorite at home, especially among the children, especially Alexis.

Nora’s demeanor softened, gratitude evident in her voice.
“Rena, you’re so considerate.
Stepping aside, Rena gestured for Nora to take her place and said, “Mrs. Moore, please feed him.”
Harrison’s appetite had diminished recently, leaving Krista worried. Eagerly, she took the spoon and began to feed him. Observing his improved appetite, she commented, “This porridge is delicious. If I could be so good at cooking, he’d surely regain some weight.”
Rena smiled gently and suggested, “I could prepare it daily and have the driver deliver it here.”
Nora felt it was unnecessary to trouble Rena, particularly due to her pregnancy and noble status.
She recognized Rena’s offer as a gesture of gratitude to her son. Rena didn’t press the matter.
She visited Harrison on subsequent occasions. Bandages obscured his features, leaving only his eyes visible. Silent and subdued, he hardly engaged in conversation.
As Rena prepared to leave, he said softly, “I don’t regret it.” Positioned by the door, Rena felt a pang of sadness wash over her.
To be loved but unable to reciprocate was a weighty burden. Especially considering this young man’s connection to Harold as his nephew.
With a soft sigh, Rena said, “I’ll visit you again in a few days After departing, Aline followed her.

Flashing her alluring eyes, she perched on the edge of Harrison’s bed. Bold as ever, she openly talked with him.
“Aren’t you always hoping for Rena to visit? Why didn’t you say anything when she was here? But today, I’ll be forthright. Even if Rena divorces, she won’t be with you. Consider her relationship with your uncle.”
Harrison understood it well.
He replied softly, “That’s not what I meant.”
Grateful to Flora, Nora said, “I feel much better after Rena came to visit him. Although Waylen has compensated us generously, that’s not what Harrison wants.”
With a sigh, she continued, “Miss Hanson is warm-hearted too.” After a moment, she got to the point.
