Female NovelAfter a short pause, Jazlyn replied, “About seven years.”
Rena stared at Jazlyn for a few moments and then said in a low voice, “Waylen has forgotten a lot of things. I’m worried about him, but there’s no one I trust at Sterling Law Firm. Jazlyn… I want you to come back to him.”
Jazlyn was stunned.
She wasn’t a fool. She knew what Rena meant. Rena wanted her to spy on Waylen.
Jazlyn found herself in a dilemma.
She knew that if Waylen found out that she agreed to spy on him for Rena, she would lose her secure, high-paying job. Worst-case scenario, she would lose her life.
Rena opened her desk drawer, took out her checkbook, and wrote a check for $10 million.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
She also fished out a key.
“I will give you a 180-square-meter furnished house in Holloua District and a check for $10 million. I think that’ll be enough for you to live on even if Waylen fires you. Also, I promise that you can always go back to work in Exceed Group.”
Jazlyn found Rena’s offer to be incredibly tempting.
That 180-square-meter house cost about $30 million, and there was also the check.
Rena was really willing to give all that.
Rena not only tempted Jazlyn with money and property, but she also played the sympathy card. “I love Waylen very much. But I’m pregnant now and have no energy to spare to get him back. I’m really, really worried about him. You understand my situation as a wife and a mother, don’t you, Jazlyn?”
Jazlyn hesitated for a while.
Then, she finally said, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Fowler. I… I’m on your side.”
Rena stood up, gently put the key and the check in Jazlyn’s pocket, and smiled. “I won’t try to control him over small things, but if there’s someone suspicious by his side, please let me know.”
Jazlyn could only nod.
She felt that something was different about Rena. Did Waylen annoy or upset her in any way?
Jazlyn soon left.
Rena called Waylen and told him gently, ‘Waylen, I have a prenatal checkup with my doctor today. Do you have time to accompany me?”
Waylen was at work in the law office.
He was surprised to receive a call from Rena. He hadn’t come home for days, and in all that time, she’d never called him. Why was she calling him now?
