Aline’s lips twitched with anger as she retorted,

“You won’t enjoy smooth sailing and luck forever!”

Rena chose not to engage in an argument. Instead, she inquired, “Where is your child?”

Aline responded with a terrifying expression, “He’s been sent to the nursery!”

Nursery…

Rena understood the implications. It meant that Aline displayed such cruelty!

Though her heart quivered, Aline pretended indifference. She adjusted her makeup in front of the mirror, but it refused to adhere properly to her face. It appeared on the verge of sliding off, and she applied more reluctantly.

Finally, Aline clenched her teeth and declared, “That’s his fate! His sin is not being Joseph’s child!”

Rena was at a loss for words.

In that moment, a man with yellowed teeth and ostentatious gold chains emerged from the men’s room. The instant he spotted Aline, he embraced her, teasing, “How many times have you excused yourself during our meal? Are you experiencing bladder issues?

Aline casually exchanged some vulgar banter with him.

However, as she departed, her visage bore a look of utter despair.

Only Aline herself knew whether she led a fulfilling life or not.

Rena let out a sigh.

She desired to confide in Vera about Aline, but the mere thought of the man’s yellowed teeth made her feel nauseous. She clutched the washbasin, retching for an extended period before finally mustering the strength to look up, her discomfort evident.

She was an adult. Regardless of how careless she could be sometimes, she couldn’t deny the growing suspicion.

Now that she thought about it, her period seemed to be late by ten days already.

Rena placed her hand on her belly, wondering if she carried a child from her encounters with Waylen.

Rena’s countenance grew ashen, her complexion drained of color.

She recollected that on one fateful night, Waylen had been seized by an unexpected passion.

During that moment, she was plunged into a profound slumber, completely vulnerable and defenseless.

He appeared to have inadvertently overlooked the employment of a protective sheath.

Vera approached, her hands delicately cradling her burgeoning belly. Observing the astonished visage etched upon Rena’s countenance, Vera swiftly intuited the situation at hand. Vera inquired in a raspy voice, “Pray, tell me, what course of action do you intend to pursue?”

Rena scrubbed her face vigorously, exerting all her might.

She uttered, “I’m experiencing some digestive distress. I need to visit the hospital.”

In the afternoon, Rena made her way to the hospital, scheduling an appointment and undergoing a blood examination.

The results were revealed within half an hour. As she had surmised, she was carrying a six-week- old embryo within her womb.

Seated within the elongated corridor of the medical facility, Rena extended her hand to tenderly caress her midsection. It was indeed the product of her and Waylen’s union..

Despite the unforeseen circumstances, Rena harbored a desire for this new life.

Furthermore, she yearned to apprise Waylen that this child belonged to both of them. Regardless of the state of affairs between the adults, she possessed no justification to deprive the child of a father or mother.

Rena dialed Waylen’s number.

When the call connected, Waylen responded after a few rings, his voice dripping with gentleness. He inquired, “What’s the matter?”

Rena felt a knot of anxiety tighten within her.

She whispered, “Waylen, I’m pregnant.”

There ensued a brief silence on the other end of the line. Perhaps Waylen, too, was taken aback, yet he swiftly regained his composure and replied, “Where are you now? Send me the address and wait for me there. I’ll be right over.”

Rena assented.

After terminating the call and sending him her address, she stared intently at the test results for a protracted period.

Waylen arrived in under half an hour.

As he approached her, his pace decelerated and he gazed deeply into her eyes. His usual expression had transformed, exuding unadulterated tenderness…

Rena likewise fixated her gaze upon him in tranquil silence.

After an extended interval, he knelt before her, tenderly clasping her hand.

Given the wintry season, Rena’s hands carried a chill. He tenderly warmed her hands and hoarsely uttered, “Rena, let’s get married.”

Without awaiting her response, he led her out of the hospital.

Once inside the vehicle, Rena turned her head and expressed, “I wish to return to my apartment.”

Waylen nodded, pressing down on the accelerator.

In the weeks preceding and following Christmas, snowfall enveloped Duefron incessantly, lending a touch of romance to the heavens.

He maneuvered the car at a leisurely pace, taking fifty minutes to complete what should have been a half-hour journey.

Rena experienced discomfort and retired to bed promptly upon their arrival home.

Waylen did not depart.

He beseeched Jazlyn to procure a set of documents so he could work from Rena’s apartment. He also requested the Fowlers’ house servant to bring some light refreshments here… He waited with unwavering patience and gentleness for her to awaken.

Rena slumbered for an extended duration and only roused from her sleep at nine o’clock in the evening.

Waylen caught wind of the commotion and entered the room. Shedding his coat, he remained clad in a shirt and tailored trousers, exuding an air of striking handsomeness within the cozy confines of the apartment.

Rena rose from her slumber and partook in a tranquil dinner with him.

As they neared the end of their meal, she whispered softly, “Let us bestow the name Alexis upon our child. It is a unisex name.”

Alexis Fowler, Waylen tenderly caressed her face and uttered, “It possesses a delightful ring. Our child shall bear the name Alexis.”

Rena continued to eat.

After she finished her meal, she proposed, “Let us solemnize our wedding after the arrival of our baby, Autumn would be the ideal season for it. Waylen, I hold a fondness for autumn.”

Whatever she expressed, he responded affirmatively. Perhaps due to the falling snow or the presence of her pregnancy, this night brimmed with tenderness.

Clutching a glass of steaming milk, Rena gazed at the snowflakes dancing outside.

Meanwhile, Waylen occupied the sofa, tending to his business matters. He recognized an abundance of tasks awaiting his attention. Once he concluded his ongoing affairs, he intended to take a brief hiatus to accompany Rena during the delivery of their child.

He contemplated that this marked her inaugural experience of motherhood and he desired to be by her side throughout.
