Tenderly, Rena caressed Alexisâ head and inquired, âWould you like a grand feast, my dear?â
Alexis stretched out her chubby Legs and let out a cute yawn, saying, âDaddy wants to have a special dinner with Mommy.
â
Her words infused the carâs atmosphere with a subtle charm.
Rena couldnât fathom the depth of Alexisâ intelligence, leaving her in awe.
Through the rearview mirror, she locked eyes with Waylen.
He responded casually, âIsnât it common for children to be intelligent these days? Donât worry too much, Rena.
â
Little Alexis burst into giggles.
Excitedly, she recounted to Rena everything her kindergarten classmates had shared, with Leonelâs name coming up most frequently.
Rena couldnât help but worry about Alexisâ habit of gossiping.
She knew she had to discuss this with Waylen when they had the time, fearing he might inadvertently mislead Alexis.
Half an hour later, Waylen brought the car to a stop.
Stepping out, Rena realized they were at the French restaurant she had invested in.
Turning to Waylen, she shot him a look.
Leaning against the car door, Waylen playfully teased, âYou know, in other families, wives usually foot the bill⦠You wonât deprive me of the chance to enjoy a free meal, will you, Rena?â
Rena didnât give in.
Waylen walked up to her and admitted, âGuilty as charged! I planned this! I simply wanted to be a part of your life.
I want everyone to know that youâre Mrs.
Fowler.
I hope those who seek you out will keep their distance!â
Seeing through his intentions, Rena calmly stated, âI never even considered accepting another man.
â
With that, she prepared to lift Alexis out of the car.
Waylen wrapped his arms around her slender waist, insisting, âLet me carry her.
â
Alexis emerged from the car with a disapproving expression, saying, âDaddy just wants to have a date with Mommy!â
Yet, she relished the fact that she could hold both her fatherâs and motherâs hands at the same time.
Once inside the restaurant, Waylen accomplished his goal.

Waylen was so down-to-earth that he even joined the chat group of the restaurantâs staff.
Although Rena found his actions somewhat too obvious, she decided to let him be.
