The children regarded her with awe and admiration!
Before parting, each of them bestowed thoughtful gifts upon Alexis.
Leonel gifted her a lollipop, which she intended to share with her father.
Gradually, the ward grew hushed as they kids were gone and Alexis drifted into slumber.
Softly, Rena whispered, âMr.
Fowler, something seems amiss with you today!â
Waylenâs smile was subtle as he replied, âWhat do you mean? By the way⦠Didnât you use to address me as Waylen? Why revert to âMr.
Fowlerâ again?â
Putting the documents down on the table, he gently pulled her to sit, saying, âAddress me as Waylen, or honey, from now on! Rena, donât keep such a distance from me.
â
Passing by, Rena leaned against his shoulder.
In a hushed tone, she murmured, âWas it you who arranged the visit?â
Waylenâs eyes shimmered with a passionate gleam.
After a moment, he confessed softly, âYes, I arranged it.
Canât you see how delighted Alexis was? She was injured and has to stay in hospital.
Isnât it wonderful to bring her joy?â
Rena found no rebuttal to his sentiment.
Waylen smiled faintly, choosing not to reveal that he had met Leonelâs father.
From that moment onwards, through Alexisâ elementary, secondary, and higher education, Leonel would forever remain her classmate, all due to his rare blood type.
They conversed for a while and the topic naturally shifted to Elvira.

At the mention of her name, Waylen was taken aback.
Taking a sip of water, he calmly stated, âLast night, I dined with the prosecutorâs lawyer.
He expressed that the crimes committed by Elvira when she was sober, those numerous heinous acts that accumulated, were sufficient to warrant a death sentence!â
Rena made no abrupt change of subject.
She believed Elvira deserved such consequences.
Having been occupied for many days, Rena decided to soothe Waylenâs fatigue with a gentle massage After some time, he playfully grabbed her wrist and teased, âI havenât savored your gentleness like this in ages.
â
Renaâs smile was like honey, easing Waylenâs anxiety and exhaustion.
Enticed by her sweetness, he couldnât resist lowering his head and planting endless ki*ses on her lips.
