Leaning close to him, she whispered, “Waylen is coming back in. about two days. I want you to come and join us for dinner. He’s got some projects that would suit you. Just make sure you behave well, okay?”

He answered it and asked, “Cecilia, what’s up?”
“Waylen, I need your help,” Cecilia softly implored, her slender finger tracing circles in the air.
Waylen loosened his tie and inquired, “What’s wrong? Has someone or something been bothering you?”
“Harold was injured! I asked him who did it, but he refused to tell me,” Cecilia confided, mentioning Harold’s name cautiously.
Upon hearing Harold’s name, Waylen remained silent since he really didn’t care.
Cecilia muttered to herself, “So much has happened today! You know what? I ran into Tyrone earlier. He mentioned that Rena’s father committed suicide in the detention center. Rena is in such a pitiful state.”

After pondering for a moment, Waylen wrote a note for his secretary.
