As for Waylen, he wanted to smoke a cigarette.

But when he looked at Rena, he gave up the idea of smoking. Then he held her in his arms and sat with her on the bench.

"Thank you for waking up early to make soup for Cecilia," he said gratefully.

"By the way, how is Elva? Is she obedient?"

Rena nodded and leaned on his shoulder.

"Olivia is very cute," she remarked.

Waylen knew that Rena missed Mark. After all, Mark was her uncle. It was normal for her to miss him and worry about him.

"Don't worry.

I'll take you to Mark next week," he said comfortingly.

"Okay," Rena nodded.

Then Waylen took out his phone and showed her some photos.

They were all photos of Olivia.

After showing her, he sent them to her phone.

"Send them to Mark. Maybe he will be in a better mood after seeing Olivia's photos," he whispered in her ear as he smoothed her long brown hair.

Rena didn't say anything in response.

She just wrapped her arms around her husband's waist and took a deep breath.

Waylen had been a perfect husband and good father nowadays. And she loved him for it.

After a while, Waylen got up and went to smoke.

Now that she was alone, Rena carefully selected a few of the photos of Olivia Waylen had sent her, along with some of Edwin, and then she sent them all to Mark.

"Uncle Mark, happy New Year," she wrote in the message.
