Waylen felt his father was being unreasonable, but he didn’t say anything more.
When the doctors and nurses finally left, Korbyn, with the baby in his arms, turned to Waylen and asked about Cecilia.
“It seems you are well-informed,” Waylen said with a smile.
“Of course, I am,” Korbyn scoffed.
After a moment of silence, he added, “I’ve brought in some experts from abroad. I’ll have them check on Mark later. Our family and the Evans family are still related as long as you’re with Rena. What’s more, Cecilia is carrying a second child. Her baby must have a living and healthy father. Mark has to be fine. But as for their relationship, that’ll be their own problem. There’s nothing I can do about it.”

He lowered his head and asked his wife, “What do you think, Rena?”
Rena felt like she was caught in the middle, but Korbyn had explained everything frankly.
She agreed with his assessment and decisions.
Later that night, Rena couldn’t fall asleep. She kept tossing and turning in bed.
Waylen, who was lying beside her, put his arm around her shoulder and asked gently, “Are your breasts making you feel uncomfortable?”
As he spoke, he put his hand on her chest and gently massaged her.
“It’s okay,” Rena said, not bothering to stop him. She leaned on his chest and said in a low voice, “My uncle is not in a good condition, is he?”
She only gave birth a few days ago and was still recovering.
She spent most of the time in bed and still hadn’t had the chance to see Mark.
But she knew the situation. Hence, she was very worried, but she could only try to comfort herself.
Meanwhile, Waylen kept quiet for a while.

But what could they do to help?
Mark was Rena’s uncle and also Edwin’s father.
Hence, Rena was very upset to hear this piece of news.
Scared that she might worry too much, Waylen tried to comfort her, “It’s mot like this is a new thing. Such problems have been solved before. Medicine has become more advanced than ever. If he’s taken good care of, he will soon be fine.”
Rena didn’t say anything in response. She just held Waylen’s waist and laid in silence.
The next day, Cecilia came to visit Rena.
