Rena brushed a strand of hair and turned her back.

Her tone was a bit broken in gentleness.

"Mommy will be back soon!"

"| also want daddy to read me a fairy tale book," Alexis continued.

"Okay." Rena replied.

“Mommy misses you, sweetie!"

With a sweet smile, Alexis said, "Alexis misses Mommy too!"

Waylen continued to listen to their conversation.

He noticed Rena's face changing colors faster than a set of traffic lights. She treated him in one way, and treated their children in another!

He couldn't help but care about her remarks, so he lost interest in making love to her.

Ungracefully, he lay on the bed with his shoes on, smoking quietly...

Rena said in a low voice, "Tidy yourself up and go back."

He knew what she meant: they had to calm down and return to their usual lukewarm relationship before going home, to avoid their parents and children finding out about their conflict.

He slowly exhaled the smoke and asked, "Rena, aren't you tired?"

"lam," Rena replied.

"But | have no choice. Waylen, if it's possible, | also yearn for freedom."

She was burdened with too many responsibilities.

Besides Waylen, there were many things she couldn't bear to part with.

Rena stood up and made her way to the cloakroom, changing into a soft wool dress. When she emerged, Waylen said with a sneer, "What? Afraid my parents will see that sultry dress?"

Indifferently, Rena flipped her long hair back.

“If you like it, I'll wear it every day!"

Her response infuriated Waylen.
