She gently pushed him away, walked slowly to the bed and lay down beside Alexis.

Eventually, Waylen also lay down.

Rena had her back to him but he knew she was not asleep. From the darkness, occasional soft sobs escaped her… She seemed to be crying.

Waylen closed his eyes gently.

Five years of his life were now lost to memory. When he awoke, he found himself with a wife, who happened to be Harold’s former girlfriend.

And to add to the turmoil, his sister was violated by Rena’s uncle.

Waylen didn’t particularly care for Rena.

Yet, he was drawn to her appearance and figure. Even now, with her pregnancy, her waist remained slender and her legs appeared long and alluring… She had an undeniable allure.

In the darkness, Waylen’s desires were suddenly ignited…

Early in the morning, Alexis woke Waylen up.

‘As soon as Waylen opened his eyes, he saw Alexis sitting on him. The little girl clamored,

“Daddy, I need to go to the bathroom.”

Waylen put one arm over his eyes.

He really didn’t want to get up, but Alexis was his daughter.

He had to sit up and untie Alexis’ onesie. He asked, “Where’s your mother?”

Alexis’ eyes lit up. She replied, “Mommy is making breakfast for me.”

Making breakfast.

Waylen wondered why the hostess of the Fowler family insisted on preparing the meals herself.

Was she that diligent?

Still feeling sleepy as well as distracted, Waylen fumbled with Alexis’ clothing. He wasn’t able to help his little girl get out of her onsie. Next thing he knew, Alexis was already sobbing. He then felt something warm on his hands. ©

A few drops of warm liquid dripped on his body.

Alexis was bright red with shame.

She put her hands over her face and wept.

Rena came up from downstairs and was surprised to see that Alexis had wet her pants. She walked over, hugged her little angel, and comforted her. Alexis twisted her little body a few times inside her mother’s arms. Eventually, she stopped crying.

Then, Rena gave Alexis clean clothes.

Alexis took off her clothes quickly.

She looked so cute, like a cartoon character.

Waylen sat up with his legs crossed. “She can undress herself the entire time? Why did she make me do it then? She wouldn’t have peed herself if she’d just gone to the bathroom by herself.”

After a long silence, Rena answered, “You raised her until she was three. She can do a lot of things on her own, but she hasn’t seen you for weeks. She’s missed you and she just wants your attention, so she was acting up a little.”

But Waylen had forgotten

He had forgotten how to love his wife and his daughter.

After saying that, Rena went straight to the bathroom and filled the bathtub with water for Alexis. Afterward, Rena came out and cleaned up the bed and the floor.

Waylen watched Rena in silence.

She looked like a very gentle, loving housewife. He thought that if he longed to be married to her, then it should be easy for him to accept her.

But he didn’t like the concept of marriage.

For him, being married was like being shackled.

After wiping his clothes, Waylen got up and went to the cloakroom to change. After freshening up, he went downstairs leisurely.

Korbyn sneaked a glance at his son downstairs.

Waylen looked like a veritable member of the elite crowd, but his father looked at him with anger.

Then, Korbyn looked at Edwin and Alexis who he liked very much.

Clad in a beautiful dress, Alexis sat at the table and started eating. When Alexis saw Waylen, she said in a friendly tone, “I forgive you for what happened earlier.”

Waylen had no idea how to respond.

Shaking her head, Alexis said, “I’m willing to give you a chance to make it up to me.”

Waylen sat beside his daughter. He poured himself a cup of coffee, took a sip, and asked, “And how do I do that?”

“Take me to school.

I want you and Mommy together to take me to school.”

Waylen turned to look at Rena and asked in a low voice, “Did you tell her to say that?”

Rena knitted her brows and clenched her jaw.

Then, she muttered, “Yes. But you don’t have to come.”

Waylen smiled. “You are very scheming, Mrs. Fowler. Surely I can’t disappoint you.”

After saying that, he gently touched Rena’s delicate face.

Her cheek was so soft and tender.

In his opinion, the best thing about this marriage was that Rena had his type of physical appearance.

Looking at the smug, crude look on his son’s face, Korbyn snapped, “Speak nicely and behave yourself, Waylen. Rena is your legal wife. She’s not one of those female riffraff out there. Show her some respect.”

Waylen just beamed faintly.

He didn’t retort. He drove Alexis to school with Rena and then drove Rena back to the villa.
