Suddenly, Rena was struck with the realization that her child might still be alive. She turned her head with alermess and asked, "Uncle Mark, what do you mean?"

With a concealed smile, Mark waved his hand and replied, "It's nothing. I was just asking.”

Although slightly disappointed, suspicion took root in her heart, compelling her to contemplate the two encounters between them since her return. He felt fully justified in seeking her out!

And Lexi!

She remembered. And Lexi’s audacious father!

“Lexi said Miss Gordon is incredibly beautiful.”

"Miss Gordon, | truly desire to see you.”

"Please don't be angry, alright?"

Rena trembled at the thought.

Her complexion slowly paled and she clutched Mark's arms with both hands, her voice quivering as she asked, "Alexis is still alive... Am I correct?"

Mark signaled the chauffeur to pull the car over quietly.

The chauffeur discreetly stepped out of the car to give them privacy.

The silence between them was engulfed by the rhythm of their racing hearts. Mark replied softly, "You have seen already her."

She slowly released her grip on his hands.

Mark's words staggered her and confirmed her speculation: Lexi was Alexis!

Lexi was the child she had given birth to three years ago. She was still alive!

Rena let out a bitter cry, her voice choked, and her entire body tense with emotion.

Mark gently caressed her head and whispered, "We wanted to tell you earlier, but... Alexis was in poor health during the first two years. We were afraid that should anything happened and you would be hurt again. And at the same time, we hoped for your complete recovery.”

Tears streamed down Rena's face as she exclaimed, "I need to see her immediately! Uncle Mark, I want to see her now!"

Mark was familiar with handling delicate situations like this.

He calmly inquired, "So, what's your plan? Are you considering getting back together with Waylen? Rena, whatever decision you make, I will respect it. He has actually done a lot for this child! But I want you to be with him because you still love him, not just for the child!"

Mark knew it was difficult for her to suppress her emotions.
