Female NovelThe reporters were baffled. When they went back to work on their manuscript, they found that Waylen had said a lot, but that it could all be summarized in one sentence.
Waylen’s message was basically like, “What goes on between me and my wife is none of your goddamned business.”
The uproar was quelled by Waylen voluntarily becoming a “simp”.
What Waylen meant was obvious. Even if Rena was mentally unwell and their relationship had problems, he was willing to stick by her side no matter what.
The public opinion then took a turn for the better. Waylen was no longer the object of scrutiny. On the contrary, he became a good man in the eyes of the public.

Waylen closed his stinging eyes, a stray tear rolling down his cheek.
Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID.
It was from the clinic.
He answered the phone. The director of the clinic was on the other end of the line to personally apologize to him. “Mr. Fowler, I’m so sorry. Mrs. Fowler’s file was leaked due to our negligence, but rest assured this employee has been fired-“
“I’UL sue her,” Waylen said indifferently, cutting the director off.

Waylen grabbed his keys and took off.
