Chapter 24
His injuries were nothing serious, but he made a mountain out of a molehill and stayed in the hospital for over two hours.
It was already 9 o’clock in the evening by the time he finally sent Rena home.
Although she was in a bad mood, Rena still apologized to Tyrone. “I’m sorry I got you into so much trouble today.”
Tyrone smiled, but deep down, he had mixed feelings.
He had thought that he finally had the chance to pursue Rena now that she and Harold had broken up, but unexpectedly, it turned out that Waylen was also interested in her.
Although Waylen looked serious and was always professional, he had subtly fixed his eyes on Rena as soon as he arrived at the police station. Tyrone noticed that and he knew what it meant.
And because of Waylen’s status and power, Tyrone didn’t dare to compete with him for Rena—at least, not openly.
The Fowler family enjoyed a certain level of prestige in Duefron, and Waylen was definitely not easy to deal with. Although Tyrone really liked Rena, he didn’t want to get his whole family into trouble because he pursued the same woman Waylen was interested in.

Rena couldn’t help but smile at him gratefully.
When she got out of the car and turned to leave, Tyrone suddenly stopped her. “Rena!”
Rena looked at him from over her shoulder inquisitively.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, he waved at her with a goofy grin on his face. For some reason, Rena felt a lump in her throat.
She didn’t move until the car drove away. As soon as its tail lights disappeared around the corner, she walked towards her porch.
The porch light was out, so Rena figured that the bulb needed replacing. Without thinking too much, she took out her phone to use it as a flashlight.
However, the next second, she suddenly felt a pair of arms grabbing her by the waist. Before she could react, a big hand was clamped over her mouth.
She was dragged down the staircase.
“Let go of me!” she roared the second she got a chance.
As soon as the man withdrew his hand, he forced his lips against hers.
The familiar scent stunned Rena.
