Chapter: 1490
Rena looked at it quietly for a while and called the servant to put it in the kitchen. It was a thoughtful offering that would find its place in the kitchen for future use.

As Waylen encircled Rena's waist, his voice softened.

"Rena, I've never harbored any affection for her."

“I understand," she responded, her thoughts involuntarily revisiting the day of the lipstick incident.

The memory was tinged with complexity. It was filled with desires, challenges, and a frustrating confrontation that had revealed her husband's probing nature.

Their connection held within a tumultuous dance, and Rena made her decision.

"For now, it might be best if we sleep in separate beds."

The gravity of the situation weighed heavily upon Waylen as he attempted to navigate her declaration.

Gently coaxing, he reasoned, "Consider the practicalities, my love. If we sleep apart and you desire beef bone soup in the dead of night, who'll rise to satisfy your craving?"

Rena's contemplation gave way to agreement. Then, a smile tugged at her Lips.

Waylen, his tie perfectly adjusted, herded Alexis and Leonel towards the awaiting car, ready to fulfill his role as chauffeur for the morning.

"Come along. I will drive you to the kindergarten.”

Alexis and Leonel clutched their schoolbags, an air of excitement permeating the space.

Hand in hand, they climbed into the car.

With Rena standing by, she watched the limousine depart with a smile curving her lips, the promise of warmth and sunshine illuminating her heart. Returning to the haven of their home, she discovered a table laden with her favorite breakfast and a bowl of mashed potatoes lovingly prepared for Marcus.

A tender touch of realization swept through her. Waylen truly was a wonderful husband.

Rena turned around and saw that Marcus was taken downstairs by a servant. With a smile on her lips, she planted a loving kiss on her son.

As the day unfolded, a call from Cecilia brought unexpected news.

Mark's project was plagued by delays, postponing its launch until year's end. Mark was so busy that he might not be able to come to Duefron for a long time.

Cecilia sobbed on the phone, “It's just as well. I actually haven't made up my mind yet."

The insights Waylen had shared about Cecilia's stubborn nature became clear. She truly was a woman of conviction. Rena knew it now.

After concluding her call, Rena took the time to reach out to Mark, desiring a chat amid his bustling schedule.
