When Waylen arrived, Alexis had already fallen asleep.
He gently placed his suitcase down, removed his coat, and naturally asked Rena, âIs Lexi already asleep?â
âYes,â she replied.
Waylen entered the bedroom and placed the teddy bear he brought back from Hondrau next to the little girlâs pillow.
When she woke up, she would see it immediately.
Waylen appeared extremely gentle during this moment.
Meanwhile, Rena stood at the door, observing silently.
Waylen sat on the edge of the bed for a long time.
When he finally stood up, he noticed Rena gazing at him.
He chuckled and asked, âAre you jealous?â
Before Rena could respond, he pulled out a box from his pocket and said, âThis is for you!â
Rena opened it.
Inside, she found not an extravagant item but a pair of exquisite pear! earrings.
It was a lovely gift that a husband would bring back for his wife from a business trip.

Rena hesitated for a moment, Waylen lowered his voice and said, âTheyâll suit you.
â
Rena carefully put the earrings away and made her way to the kitchen.
âLet me make you a cup of coffee.
â
Waylen sensed that Rena had something she wanted to discuss with him.
Rena prepared a cup of coffee for him.
As he took a sip, she said softly, âLexi seems a bit unhappy because of our separation.
â
Waylen remained silent, aware of Alexisâ feelings better than Rena did.
After a long pause, Waylen finally spoke up in a gentle tone.
âItâs alright.
Iâll talk to her later.
â
Rena nodded,
Waylen placed the coffee cup on the table and said gently, âRena, itâs been a while since we last had such a calm conversation.
