Eloise beckoned her closer, taking her hand gently.

She then said in a tender voice, "I didn't know about Alexis' existence until this year. Waylen took her to Czanch, and it shocked everyone. Your grandmother cried for a long time, and Waylen knelt before all night.”

Hearing this, Rena leaned closer to Eloise in attempt to seek some comfort.

Eloise affectionately touched her head and continued saying in a hushed tone, "Your uncle wanted you to have more choices, not to stay with Waylen solely for the sake of the child. That's why he didn’t refuse Jenna's request for you to go on a blind date with her son. | also want you to follow your heart, but don't rush into making a decision. You and Waylen have broken up and gotten back together several times.”

Rena nodded and replied, "I'll think it over."

All she wanted now was to take good care of Alexis and raise her.

Eloise smiled and suggested, "Bring Alexis here tomorrow. I haven't seen her in a long time, and 1 miss her dearly. She looks just like you did as a child but has Waylen's personality.”

The thought of Alexis brought a gentle smile to Rena's face.

She spent most of the day with Eloise and didn't pick Alexis up until half-past three in the afternoon.

Right outside the kindergarten, Rena waited patiently.

Alexis raised her head proudly upon seeing her mother.

Rena took her daughter's schoolbag, squatting down to wipe the sweat off her forehead. With a warm smile, she said, "I'll be working at the restaurant later.

Would you like to join me for some French food?"

Alexis blinked her big eyes and responded sweetly, "Mom, don't you have money? Dad has a lot of money!"

Rena kissed Alexis’ face and reassured her, "I am actually the owner of that restaurant. And I'll occasionally play the piano there!"

Alexis! face suddenly lit up with happiness.

She wanted her mother to embrace her and wrap her arms around her neck.

She loved her mother's scent.

When Rena arrived with Alexis at the French restaurant, she requested a seat near the piano.

She then ordered a delicious French cuisine for Alexis, cutting the steak into bite-sized pieces.

Alexis ate gracefully with a small fork, exuding elegance.

As Rena observed her, she couldn't help but marvel at how Waylen's strong genes had manifested in Alexis.
