Therefore, no matter how disgusted she felt with what had happened between Mavis and Waylen, she could only choose to forgive Waylen.

Otherwise, what else could she do?

Rena squatted down and started picking up the scattered pills. One by one, she put them back into the small bottle.

Staring at these white little pills with hopelessness, she even considered the idea of ending this torture by swallowing them all.

Then, she would never need to hear Waylen question her about whether she still loved him or not, nor would she have to see the hurt in his eyes.

But she wouldn't let their tense relationship affect the children.

The following morning, Rena got up early.

At the same time, Waylen came out of the guest room opposite their bedroom. He hadn't changed out of the clothes he wore last night.

Noticing the dark circles under Rena's eyes, he considerately offered, “I'LL take Alexis to the kindergarten."

It was a simple sentence, but it represented the message that he was just going to make do with how things were for the rest of their Lives.

Rena nodded in agreement.

Then she went downstairs to make breakfast for the children, as usual.

While they were having breakfast as a family, Alexis pouted like a spoiled child, begging them to send her to the kindergarten together.

Rena raised her head.

Coincidentally, she met Waylen's gaze at that moment.

He had taken a shower and changed into a set of formal clothes by then.

At this moment, his eyes held unfathomable depth.

The atmosphere grew a little subtle. Rena knew that Alexis needed to be coaxed, but unexpectedly, it was Waylen who spoke first.

“It's rare for us to have the chance to take Alexis to school together. Let's go together. I can drive you back Later.”

Albeit a Little startled, Rena found herself nodding.

Eyes darting between her daddy and mommy, Alexis gently tapped Rena's hand and asked, “Mommy, do you Like the card from me and Marcus?"

Rena planted a tender kiss on Alexis's tender cheek and replied dotingly, "I love it."
