Chapter 1097
Darcie came out with a coat when she heard the sound of the car engine arriving at the house. Wenham had
gotten out of the car and was holding the door as he spoke to the person inside. At the same time, Darcie called out
to him.
Wenham turned his head around and said, "Why are you still awake?"
Darcie walked over, put the coat over his shoulders, and said in a soft voice, "I couldn't fall asleep without you here.
How was it? Did all of you have a good talk?"
Wenham vaguely responded to her questions as he turned to Trevor and said, "Pay attention to the road and drive
safely."
Before Trevor could reply, Darcie said, "It's very late. Are you sure you don't want to stay for the night? I'll have the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtguest room cleaned up for you."
"It's okay, Darcie. I have some work at the company, and I have to go there for a sec. You two should get some
rest."
"You have work at this time of the night?" Darcie sighed." Alright then. Take care and be safe. If you ever need
anything, just come here, okay?"
"Okay," Trevor replied with a smile. However, when he pulled up the windows, his smile faded away. 'I'll have the
guest room cleaned up,' he mocked in his heart, and his gaze gradually turned cold.
After Trevor had left, Darcie gently rubbed her arms.
Wenham took off his coat and put it over her shoulders. “ Let's head inside. It's cold out here."
Jaylene was on her phone in the living room at that time. As soon as they entered the house, Darcie called for
Jaylene, and she stood up. "Dad, you're back," she said.
Wenham was a little surprised that her daughter was still up. "Why aren't you in bed? It's late."
"Mom was worried about you and refused to sleep, so I accompanied her. I had a short nap while we waited, but
Mom didn't even blink."
Wenham felt sorry for keeping them waiting. "I told you to go to bed without me since I would come home late.
Why didn't you listen?"
Darcie lowered her head and smiled. "Don't listen to
Jaylene. I was watching TV. That's why I couldn't sleep."
"No, dad. Remember the time you almost got into an accident on your way home a few years ago? Since then,
Mom has always waited for you to come home before she goes to sleep. I've seen it with my own eyes. She turns
off the bedroom lights only when your car arrives."
"You kids are so annoying nowadays," Darcie snapped.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJaylene shrugged and said, "Well, you're the one who asked me to stay up with you." When she said that, her phone
vibrated. She looked at her phone, picked it up, and stated," I'm going to bed now."
Wenham had mixed feelings about the situation. After a long time, he said, 'Til call or text next time when I'm on
the road. You should rest earlier. There's no need to wait for me.

Darcie smiled and said, "I'm used to it. I can't lose to Freesia. I don't like being compared, and I don't like losing to
her when it comes to you."
Wenham paused and pursed his lips. "You're different in your own ways. No one's comparing the two of you."
"I don't want to replace her, nor do I want you to forget her. On the contrary, I appreciate her and cherish
everything I have now. I wouldn't have met you if it wasn't for her." Darcie paused before she continued, "I know
your dad and the others have their opinions about me. But I really want to meet them and do my filial duties."
Wenham sighed. "They don't have a problem with you. They have a problem with me, but things are better now.
After they meet the child, she's going to become the lubricant in the family. I'll take you to meet my parents once
our relationship is restored."
"Child? What child?"
