"You should rest now. You've been tirelessly working on these clothes," he suggested.

Rena's gaze, brimming with tenderness, met Waylen's.

She had a penchant for tinkering with the little garments and accessories, her curiosity fueling her excitement as she prepared for the arrival of their child.

Waylen placed a tender kiss on her forehead and said lovingly,

“You're already a remarkable mother."

Rena smiled.

At this time, a servant downstairs showed them an invitation.

It turned out to be an invitation from Kyle, saying he and Albert would come to Duefron to celebrate Christmas, and asked if they could gather for a dinner that day.

Rena's eyes lingered on the invitation.

She put it down with a smile and remarked to Waylen, "I believe Kyle wants me to consider Albert as my little brother and treat him well.

Kyle's quite shrewd, you know. He's not merely interested in making Albert my brother. He's using this as an opportunity to connect with our family. I've heard he has plans to expand his business in Duefron."

Waylen welcomed the idea of expanding their circle of friends.

Rena smiled thoughtfully as she continued, "His plan got me thinking, you know."

Rena had made a deal with Albert, but she hadn't yet fulfilled her promise.

She had been struggling with how to justify Albert and his mother's place within the Moore family.

However, Rena now had a plan.

She summoned a servant and instructed, "Please call Kyle and let him know that Waylen and I will be heading to Czanch to celebrate Christmas. It's not convenient for us to receive him that day. We can arrange to meet on another day."

The servant nodded and promptly left the room, closing the door behind them.

With a casual air, Waylen leaned against the sofa, his curiosity piqued.

“What's your plan?" he inquired lazily.
