Even during Marcus’ nursing sessions, she politely asked him to leave, treating him like a stranger.

One night, Waylen offered to prepare milk for Alexis.

As he pushed the door open, he saw Rena sitting there, calm and composed. The soft glow of the light accentuated her features.

Alexis nestled in her mother’s arms, listening intently as Rena read fairy tales with a soothing voice.

Rena’s voice was sweet and slightly hoarse, reminding Waylen of the intimate and romantic nights they once shared, when she would whisper softly under his touch.

His Adam’s apple bobbed as these memories flooded his mind. Trying to regain composure, he gently handed Alexis the feeding bottle, allowing Rena to continue the tender moment with their daughter.

Alexis drank more than half the bottle.

Afterwards, her drowsiness became evident.

Rena’s voice grew softer.

She continued to hum a lullaby, lulling Alexis to sleep.

In the middle of the night, as Rena gently patted Alexis’ shoulder and continued humming, Waylen leaned over and whispered, “She’s asleep.”

Rena gently laid Alexis down in her princess bed and planted a loving kiss on her forehead before getting out of bed.

She then headed to the next room to check on Marcus.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

The baby was sleeping soundly in the nursery, with two nannies taking turns to watch over him at night. Rena glanced at her son, reassured by his peaceful slumber, before leaving the room. Waylen followed closely behind her, and in the quiet corridor, he reached out and took her hand, gently pinning her against the wall.

“Rena, how long are you going to give me the cold shoulder?

Itold you. Nothing happened between me and her,” he implored. ?

Rena placed her hand on his shoulder and gently pushed him away. She continued walking towards her bedroom.

But Waylen didn’t give up. Instead, he grabbed her wrist once more.

“Let’s talk,” he urged.

Rena halted, her slender figure looking frail in the dim light.

In just a few days, she seemed to have lost a significant amount of weight.

It was evident she no longer resembled a woman who had given birth just two months ago.
