Thinking of that, she took off her jade bracelet and said it was for Matthew.
Melissa rejected it and said, âItâs too expensive, Mrs.
Fowler.
I canât accept it.
â
Nobody said anything.
After pondering for a while, Rena said gently, âI understand your concern, Melissa.
I promise you that Waylen and I wonât interfere with your life! As for Matthew⦠He will continue to live with his mother.
â
âMrs.
Fowler, Iâ¦â
Melissaâs voice trembled and she didnât know what to say.
She could tell that Waylen and Rena were fond of Matthew and attached great importance to him, but she didnât expect that they were willing to let her take care of Matthew even if she and Marcus didnât end up togetherâ¦
Rena patted the back of Melissaâs hand and said nothing more.
In fact, if there wasnât the misunderstanding at that time, Marcus and Melissa would have already lived a happy life with their child.
The night grew deep.
Rena and Waylen bid farewell to Melissa and left.
After walking out of the building, Waylen complained, âHow could you be so careless about it? What if Melissa runs back to Heron? Donât forget that she works for Albert.
That guy is so cunning!â
Holding Waylenâs arm, Rena said confidently, âDonât you have faith in Marcus?â
Of course, Waylen believed in his own sonâs charm.
However, Waylen still had his concern and muttered, âBut why did Marcus act like Melissa was cheating on him when we arrived just now?â
Rena opened the door and sat in the passenger seat, and then said with a smile, âBecause he is still in love with Melissa; thatâs why he is jealous!â
Waylen followed her into the car.
Before fastening the seat belt, he leaned over to ki*s Rena on the cheek and whispered, âYouâre right!
It has been so many years, but every time when Albert comes to our house, I still feel jealous.
â
Upon his words, Rena leaned against the seat and looked at him gently.
Waylen held her in his arms and said, âMatthew is so sweet! You can rest assured now!â
On the other side, in the apartment.
Julie had gone to bed, and she even plugged her ears thoughtfully, in case she heard any noises!
The light was warm in the main bedroom.
Marcus was sitting on the big bed and playing with the toys.
Marcus just bathed the little guy, and now he loosened his belt and was about to take off his damp shirt.
With her back against the door, Melissa tried hard to restrain herself and uttered, âWhat are you doing, Marcus?â
