Noticing her reaction, Waylen said softly, "I've noticed you often wear that pair of earrings.

The maid told me that you lost one of them and have been searching for it for a long time.

So,| bought another pair for you."

"Thank you!" Rena replied with gratitude.

Waylen grabbed her hand and asked gently, "Do you like this present?"

Rena smiled at him.

Then, she carefully put on the pearl earrings.

However, Waylen couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment.

He sensed that Rena was merely being polite, not genuinely interested in reconciling with him. She was only acting as Mrs. Fowler in front of others.

On their way back home, with little Alexis in the backseat, they couldn't engage in the intimate conversations of a couple.

Still, Waylen stole glances at Rena through the rearview mirror whenever the traffic light turned red.

Tonight in Heron, he was deeply touch by the mother and daughter, and he longed to share all his emotions with his wife.

When the car stopped, Alexis hopped out first.

Waylen gently touched the steering wheel and murmured, "Rena, today is Valentine's Day.

Let's celebrate it together, just you and me...”

Rena said coldly, "No need."

She wanted to get out of the car, but before she could, Waylen was already blocking her way.

He gazed at her deeply and said, "It was my fault last time. | shouldn't have treated you like that. But, Rena, please don't be cold to me, and don't say those words to provoke me, okay?"

Rena smiled lightly in response.

She looked at her husband who was standing outside the car and said, "Mavis came to me today. She said that she didn't care about anything else, and she just wanted to stay by your side. Do you have any idea how disgusting | think that is, Waylen? If you hadn't insisted on saving her yourself and watching over her at the hospital for days on end, she wouldn't have had the gall to challenge me."

It was he who brought all these upon himself.

Waylen was stunned.
