Waylen took pride in being the father to such a lovely girl. He put two boxes full of baby food at the checkout counter.
Many young mothers recognized Waylen. Today’s shocking news and then the man’s public confession to his wife made the women blush…
Alexis might’ve been young, but she could see that these women kept staring at Waylen. Maybe her dad was kind of famous.
Before dinnertime, Waylen and Alexis arrived home.

Juliette was helping Rena cook dinner in the kitchen. In the warm light, Rena’s side profile looked particularly gentle, and her light purple dress suited her skin tone nicely.
Waylen walked over, slipped his arms around Rena’s waist from behind, putting a bouquet of flowers in front of her.
It was a bunch of champagne roses.
Rena was a little surprised.
But no woman could refuse such beautiful flowers. She thanked him in a low voice, and then went to find a vase. Seeing that she was busy, Waylen took out a cigarette and lit it.
While smoking, he casually chatted with Rena about his day. “I bought some carrot-flavored baby food for Marcus.”
Rena looked up in surprise. “Did Alexis pick that?”
Waylen smiled. “How’d you know? Did you install a hidden camera on me?”
Rena Laughed. While chopping vegetables, she explained, “Marcus doesn’t like carrots. But Alexis always tells him not to be picky with his food. I don’t know if Marcus can understand her though.”

Waylen stared at Rena for a long time and said in a low voice, “Then I’ll go back to the store and buy some other flavors tomorrow.”
Rena nodded and focused on preparing dinner.
After the meal, Alexis sat down in front of the other two kids and read a fairy tale book aloud.
With Marcus and Edwin sitting next to each other facing Alexis…
They looked like students, and Alexis looked like the teacher.
Rena and Cecilia sat down and chatted with Juliette. The atmosphere was warm, as if nothing had happened today.
But Waylen knew that Rena secretly cared about the news very much.
