NovelBarShe turned her face away, choosing to remain silent.
Over the past three years, Waylen had grown more temperate. If she had gone on a blind date before, he would have been consumed by jealousy and acted impulsively.
But things had changed now; they were divorced.
In reality, Rena was correct, They shouldn’t pry into each other’s personal lives.
However, despite everything, he still loved her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWaylen softened his tone, saying, “Alright, I agree.”
Rena was quite surprised.
She had told her uncle that being with Bruce was impossible, but Waylen’s response earlier seemed rather unreasonable. Was their personal life merely about blind dates, dating, and sex?
Nonetheless, he had compromised first. Rena didn’t want their relationship to become too rigid, especially considering they had to raise their child together.
Speaking softly, Rena proposed, “T’d like to take Alexis to stay at my place for a while.”
Waylen extinguished his cigarette and smiled. “Of course. You’re her mother, and you can take her to stay with you for as long as you want. However, due to her special condition, it’s better not to take her away from Duefron under normal circumstances.”
Rena agreed.
Waylen drove them to the hospital, parking the car in the lot. Before Rena could get out, Waylen stopped her, “Give me your phone.”
Confused, Rena handed him her phone. Waylen lit another cigarette, placing it between his lips as he entered a series of phone numbers into her contacts.
‘These numbers included those of the lab doctor, the emergency department doctor, the psychologist, the blood bank administrator, Alexis’ kindergarten teacher, and even the principal’s number.
Once he finished inputting the numbers, Waylen returned Rena’s phone. She looked at him, lost in thought.
He whispered gently, “Rena, I haven’t been with any woman in the last three years, not even when I yearned for you at night. My personal life during these past three years was all about our daughter. I would have to put on my clothes and rush to the lab whenever I received a phone call, even in the middle of the night while I was sleeping, because Alexis was there…”

He continued in a hoarse voice, “I’m not saying this to gain your sympathy. I just want to tell you that if you decide to get involved and be Alexis’ mother, you might have no personal life like me. Do you still want to be her mother?”
His words struck a chord within Rena.
How could she ever abandon her daughter?
She looked at Waylen, her heart racing, uncertain of what to say.
Waylen reached out and gently caressed her face.
He knew that she was going through a difficult time, but he needed to be honest with her. He feared that she would blame him for Alexis’ current conditions.
