Mavis’ heart raced with anxiety.

She bit her trembling lips and said in a hushed tone, “If it weren’t for Mrs. Fowler’s scheme, I wouldn’t have become pregnant with someone else’s child, Mr. Fowler… If, if I decide to have an abortion, then… I mean, I know you divorced her…” ?

Waylen’s patience was wearing thin.

As he observed Mavis, a memory of Elvira crossed his mind.

He had once hoped that Mavis could lead a happy life for that very reason.

But now, with his heart entirely devoted to Rena, thoughts of Elvira were few and far between. Instead, every time he closed his eyes, all he could see was Rena’s radiant face.

He dreamt of Rena on several occasions.

In his dreams, she always leaned against his chest and called his name softly.

Extinguishing his cigarette, Waylen said calmly, “Don’t show up in front of me again.”

The car window glided shut with a slow, deliberate motion.

Mavis tried to halt him, but he firmly clamped her hand, leaving a painful bruise.

Waylen rolled down the window and stepped on the gas to drive away.

Mavis stood rooted to the spot.

She finally realized that this man had only felt a mere trace of pity for her all along, nothing more. ?

Meanwhile, Waylen went to pick up Alexis.

Alexis was overjoyed. Holding her father’s hand, she bid farewell to her teacher.

Then, he carried the little girl into the car.

Alexis wrapped her arms around his neck and bestowed him with a soft kiss. Waylen’s heart melted as he asked gently, “Have you missed me these days?”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“Yes, I have,” replied the little girl.

Waylen returned her affectionate gesture with a kiss and assured her, “If you ever miss me, just call. I promise I’l be there in 30 minutes.”

Sitting in her child’s seat, Alexis flipped her brown, curly hair and inquired, “Do you miss me or mommy more?”

Waylen admired his daughter’s cleverness.
