Although Rena put on a facade of reluctance, she succumbed to his advances.

She felt that he was filled with energy, and his enthusiasm overwhelmed her.

An hour later, as they lay in each other's arms, Rena bit her lower lip and cursed, “Waylen, you scoundrel!"

However, he just wore a content smile on his face.

He then grabbed her hand and gently caressed it.

“Your belly isn't big yet. When it gets bigger, it'll be more inconvenient for certain activities."

Rena wasn't truly angry.

She loved Waylen deeply, and he was still in his prime.

She longed to let him enjoy their intimate moments with satisfaction.

She touched his handsome face and asked in a low voice, "How can I explain Leonel's situation to Alexis later?"

Waylen kissed her and replied, "Let me talk to her. Rena, you need to play the role of a good mother."

His teasing made Rena blush.

No man could be as flirtatious as him, but she appreciated this aspect of his character.

Rena didn't know how Waylen had convinced Alexis, but she knew Leonel had to spend two hours working with him in the study every day, which she found a pity for the young boy.

In the evening, Rena was teaching Alexis to play the piano.

Coincidentally, Mark returned from Czanch and dropped by Rena's house.

Rena was surprised by her uncle's unexpected visit.

Alexis, who was in front of the piano, greeted Mark with excitement.

She came running into his embrace and planted a big kiss on his cheek.

"Mark!"

Mark returned the affection, planting a kiss on her face.

He then complimented Rena, "You've taken great care of her."

Rena prepared a cup of tea for Mark and asked, “Why did you come to Duefron so suddenly?"

Mark, wearing a gentle smile on his face, responded, "I'm here to pick up Cecilia and Edwin so we can celebrate the festival together in Czanch."

Rena had originally planned to send Cecilia and Edwin to Czanch on the Fowler family's private plane, so she was surprised by Mark's arrangement.

Thinking of the hardships Cecilia had endured and the challenges Mark had faced, Rena couldn't help but be moved to tears.

"That's wonderful. You can gather together. By the way, where is Cecilia Mark just smiled warmly.

"I stopped by to see you first. I'll pick them up later."

He loved Cecilia and Edwin and also held a special affection for Rena and her children.

Mark had specifically come here to present them with some gifts.

Each child had received a special gift, and Rena's was the most extravagant.

"Thank you." Rena flashed a smile at Mark.

Mark patted her on the head affectionately, and at that moment,

Waylen came downstairs and noticed Mark's presence.

He asked, "So, are you leaving tonight?"
