He pinched her cheek affectionately and added, "I won't permit you to fret over him, even if he is your uncle."

Knowing Waylen's tendency for jealousy, especially when it came to men, Rena chose not to argue. Instead, she motioned for him to get in the car.

"Let's head back. Lexi will spend the night here and we'll pick her up tomorrow evening.”

Wrapping his arms around her slender waist, Waylen whispered, "That's what my parents suggested. They want us to have a night to ourselves. Rena, shall we try for a baby tonight?"

Rena was left momentarily speechless.

Despite the driver being present, Waylen remained flirtatious.

‘She murmured, "Waylen, you've had a few too many drinks."

Undeterred, he guided her into the car, yet his mischievous behavior continued even after getting inside. He gently traced her ankle along the curve of her legs, tenderly caressing her heels...

Rena's heart fluttered.

In the dimly lit car, their breaths intermingled, surrounded by his unmistakable air of pure masculinity.

She perceived he had made a move on her.

But, after a considerable time had passed, he just leaned against her shoulder and softly inquired, "Were you frightened the last time you drove?"

Given her old injury, it was possible that braking could have been challenging and led to an accident...

Even now, after so many days, Waylen still felt a trace of fear.

Rena's heart melted.

Turning her head, she planted a tender kiss on his tall nose.

"! didn't dwell on it much at that moment.”

Waylen gently rested her feet.

Stretching out on her lap, he tenderly held her waist.

In all the years Rena had been with him, she had never seen him like this. He appeared a little vulnerable...

Unable to resist, she lightly traced his handsome features and he looked up at her.

In that instant, their emotions were beautifully aligned.
