âThe baby
is in stable condition.
Iâll only be away for three days.
Iâll return as soon as the trial concludes, and I wonât take on any new cases for the time being.
Iâll remain by your side until you give birth, alright?â
Rena knew that he had firmly made up his mind.
Feeling upset, she asked softly, âWhen will you depart?â

Bending down, he placed a tender ki*s upon her protruding belly.
âIs our little one being disobedient?â

Iâm afraid something terrible might occur.

Waylen straightened himself and ki*sed her passionately on the lips.
âIf I donât go now, I wonât be able to catch the flight.
Trust me.

Rena refused to release her hold on him.
Gently, he peeled away her fingers one by one, wearing a soft smile.
âYouâre behaving like a child now, I promise Iâll be back in three days.
