"If Rena cuddles me, it means she wants my kisses. Rena is always my priority. In fact, despite the mother of my two children, Rena is just a little girl who needs my love. Rena likes me to call her 'my little mommy.”

Three days later, Waylen had written down a thick diary.

Every night, he sat quietly and read between the lines intensively, trying to retrieve his beloved ones again and again.

But some of these recollections had already become strangers to him.

Outside, Rena gently pushed the door open with a fruit plate in her hand.

The moment the door was opened, she saw the diary. Although he put it away soon, Rena could guess its contents.

Waylen also avoided going to his company.

Instead, he let Jazlyn handle official business.

Wherever he went, he made sure someone was with him. Even when he went out occasionally, he never drove by himself. His efforts to preserve their love in the diary, however, couldn't stop the fading of some memories. But somehow, he stubbornly stayed by her side, even as his memory began to slip away.

Rena's heart trembled with emotions that were on the verge of overflowing.

She fought back tears and gracefully walked into the room, just as she always did.

Waylen stowed his diary away, his fingers delicately brushing against the drawer's surface.

When he looked up, his gaze was tender.

"Is Alexis asleep?” he inquired.

With a gentle smile, Rena placed the fruit plate down and nestled into his arms, guiding his hand to her belly.

"She's asleep. This little one however, is eagerly waiting for you.”

Tenderly, Waylen caressed her belly, feeling the presence of their unborn child.

Sadly, the baby was still too small and there was no fetal movement.

Had it been otherwise, he could have at least felt the reassuring heartbeat of his own flesh and blood.

Drawing close to Rena, their noses touched, and he playfully teased, "Does the baby miss me, or is it you who wants to sleep with me?"

Rena wrapped her arms lovingly around his neck.

She looked stunning in her thin silk pajamas, an allure that would have tempted him before but now, with her being pregnant, he had other considerations.
