Finally, she was standing in front of her husband. She said, “| can ask Uncle Mark to send a chopper. You don’t have to take care of it yourself.”
Waylen looked at Mark.
Taking a drag on his cigarette, Mark concurred, “I can help.”
Waylen then looked back at Rena.

Rena wasn’t stupid.
How in the world could such a coincidence happen?
Mavis was just pretending to be in danger.
She was really going to the extreme to get Waylen to her side. What if he didn’t show up?
Had she consider that possibility? She could have died!
Rena didn’t care about Mavis’ life. She had her own family to think about though, and she certainly wouldn’t let Waylen risk his life to save Mavis’.
After saying that, Rena stared at Waylen.
Waylen reached out and gently stroked her face. He said gently, “It’s rare for Uncle Mark to visit here. | can’t have him taking care of something for me when he should be here with you and the rest of the family. | have to go. I’ll be back tomorrow morning, okay?” ©
After saying that, Waylen turned around and started for the front door.

Waylen frowned slightly.
“It’s not that, Rena.”
Rena lowered her head and scoffed. She didn’t want to frighten Alexis, and she didn’t want to make things difficult for the elders during the celebration of the holiday either.
She lowered her voice. “You just told me earlier that you could be a good husband to me.
Have you already forgotten that? Why are you hurrying out now to save a woman who obviously wants to seduce you and take you away from me and your children? Are you really an emissary of justice, Waylen, or do you just see someone in her?”
Rena didn’t care anymore.
In the end, she decided to speak her heart.
