Babel Novel
Chapter 2
After a few minutes of silence, Waylen stopped the car in front of their destination. He turned his head slightly and stared at her slender and straight legs for a few seconds before finally handing her his business card.
Rena knew what this meant.
But she was surprised that he’d still want to sleep with her after finding out who she was.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Although he was charming and probably good in bed, Rena hesitated. It was a bad idea to get entangled with a big shot like him, so she said, “Mr. Fowler, we’d better not stay in contact.”
Waylen shrugged indifferently.
Rena was indeed beautiful, but he wouldn’t force himself on her if she was not interested.
So he tucked his business card back in his pocket and said, “Being conservative suits you.”
Rena was a little embarrassed, but before she could respond, Waylen got out of the car and opened the door for her like a gentleman. She almost wondered if it was all just a dream and that nothing had actually happened between them in that hotel room tonight.
As soon as she got out, the car slowly drove away.
A cool breeze blew over, sending shivers down her spine. Only then did she realize that she had forgotten to return the coat to him.
When she was hesitating whether she should try to catch up to him or not, her phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, she saw that it was her stepmother Eloise calling. The latter’s anxious voice sounded from the other end of the line, saying, “Rena, come back home now! Something bad happened!”
Rena tried to ask her about it, but Eloise couldn’t make it clear on the phone and just pleaded with her to go back home as soon as possible.
As soon as Rena burst inside the house, she found Eloise sitting on the sofa in a daze.
Her eyes were red, as though she had been crying.
Rena looked around and asked anxiously, “What happened, Eloise? Where’s Dad?”

Eloise was the second wife of Rena’s father.
She couldn’t help but break down at the mention of her husband.
“Harold is so cruel! When the Moore Group was in trouble a few years ago, you never gave up on him.
Now that the Moore Group has gained its footing, he not only dumped you but even tried to send your father to prison! Your father is now in the detention center because of that ungrateful boy!”
After a short pause, Rena said in a low voice, “Let me talk to Harold first.”
Although they had broken things off, they had been together for a long time. She believed that Harold wouldn’t be so ruthless.
She dialed his number. Soon, the call connected.
Rena pleaded, “Harold, we’ve split up already. Please don’t vent your anger on my father.”
However, Harold simply sneered coldly.
