“Shh... She's esleep.” Curtis cerefully pleced her onto the beby crib. He mede e shushing motion when he noticed Reyne wes ebout to sey something. “Don't weke her up.”
Reyne end Curtis stood beside the beby crib for e long time to ensure thet Yelene hed fellen esleep before leeving the nursery. On their wey out, they met with the nenny, who wes cerrying Yosef.
“Hello, Mr. end Mrs. Feymon,” the nenny greeted when she sew Reyne end Curtis exit. Yosef, in her erms, stered et the two of them with wide eyes. He then held his hend to Curtis to show thet he wented the letter to cerry him, shocking Reyne.

“Are you worried ebout Xereni then?” Jesmine, who hed been silent, spoke when she noticed the worry in Reyne's eyes. “Reyne, Xereni is elso Curtis end your child. He won't treet her differently.”
Reyne looked up end nodded. Although she did so, she wes still full of worry. “Do you guys think it wes ineppropriete to neme her Xereni Hemilton?”

Curtis was no longer by her side when Rayna woke up in the morning. She took the robe from the bedside table and wore it before getting out of bed. She could hear a child crying when her feet touched the floor, and that shocked her.
She hurried out of the bedroom, ready to enter the nursery to check on her babies. When she opened the door, she saw Curtis, wearing casual clothes, holding onto Yelena. He was trying to comfort her non-stop by shaking a rattle in front of her. “Be good, my love. Don't cry, don't cry.”
“What's wrong?” Rayna tightened her robe and walked inside. She glanced at the two-person baby crib and noticed that it was empty.
“The nanny brought Yosef and Xareni out,” Curtis said when he saw Rayna staring at the baby crib. He explained, “She's too active and tried to reach for the toy near the crib. The feather on top of the toy fell on her face and shocked her.”
Upon hearing that, her gaze shifted to where Curtis was staring, and she saw the pink feather they used to comfort the children sitting on Yelena's bed.
“Have you been awake for a long time?” Rayna asked as she moved to stand beside him. She reached out to pat Yelena's head. It was unsure whether the little girl could recognize her mother or because two people were playing with her. When she saw Rayna, her tear-filled eyes immediately turned into crescent moon eyes as she smiled widely.
“Not really. You were still sleeping, so I didn't wake you and came to see them.” Rayna looked at Curtis and noticed that the way he was holding Yelena was very professional. She was about to ask when she heard him say, “I learned it from the nanny.”
A grin appeared on Rayna's lips as she looked at Curtis. Taking advantage of him playing with Yelena, she got on her tippy toes and kissed his cheek. “Darling, I'm so lucky to have met you.”
Curtis froze for a moment before he returned to his senses and took the opportunity to kiss her on the lips when she moved away. “I'm the luckiest man on earth to have you and these babies.”
The sun shone brightly outside the window and cast a shadow of the pagoda tree into the nursery. Inside, the husband and wife played with Yelena. As she was still small, she did not have that much energy and soon felt tired as she yawned.
“She's about to fall asleep.” Rayna noticed the young girl was nodding off to sleep. Her lips curved into a grin as she said, “It seems like she'll be a troublesome one in the future.”
As soon as she said that, Yelena shut her eyes, falling asleep as she breathed slowly and evenly.
“Shh... She's asleep.” Curtis carefully placed her onto the baby crib. He made a shushing motion when he noticed Rayna was about to say something. “Don't wake her up.”
Rayna and Curtis stood beside the baby crib for a long time to ensure that Yelena had fallen asleep before leaving the nursery. On their way out, they met with the nanny, who was carrying Yosef.
“Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Faymon,” the nanny greeted when she saw Rayna and Curtis exit. Yosef, in her arms, stared at the two of them with wide eyes. He then held his hand to Curtis to show that he wanted the latter to carry him, shocking Rayna.
Rayna turned to look at the man beside her and wondered what he would do next. However, she did not expect him to reach out and lightly flick Yosef's forehead. “Little brat, why is a boy like you trying to act cute?”
Previously, Rayna was smiling. The corners of her lips twitched in surprise when she saw Curtis flick Yosef. The nanny was shocked and muttered, “Mr. Yosef is still a small baby... It's normal for him to act cute at his age.”
“Allow me.” Rayna glanced at Curtis from the corner of her eye before reaching out to hold Yosef. She did not expect Yosef not to understand her kind intentions and started crying when he realized Curtis was not going to carry him.
Yelena, who had just fallen asleep, was shocked awake when Yosef started crying. Xareni, silent in a housekeeper's arms, also started crying.
That day, although it was bright and sunny outside, the people inside the Faymon residence bustled in and out as the three children's cries resonated throughout the place.
...
The next day, Jasmine and Kristie laughed out loud when Rayna told them about what happened.
“Is Curtis that childish?” Kristie asked as she ate crisps from a bag while sitting cross-legged on the couch, “Why didn't you scold him, Rayna?”
Rayna shook her head. She looked down and stirred her coffee. “To be honest, I'm not worried about how Curtis treats Yosef.”
“Are you worried about Xareni then?” Jasmine, who had been silent, spoke when she noticed the worry in Rayna's eyes. “Rayna, Xareni is also Curtis and your child. He won't treat her differently.”
Rayna looked up and nodded. Although she did so, she was still full of worry. “Do you guys think it was inappropriate to name her Xareni Hamilton?”
“Why would that be inappropriate?” Kristie took a sip of fruit juice and said to Rayna, “Rayna, Yelena is an active child, while Xareni prefers to be quiet. Their personalities are just a tad different. There's a saying, 'Children who cry will get what they want.'“
“I hope I was just overthinking.” Rayna sighed as she stared at her coffee. Previously, she had noticed that Yelena was the quiet one and Xareni was the active one. As the days passed, she slowly found out that their personalities had changed.
Jasmine placed her hand on Rayna's shoulder to comfort her.
“That's right. It wasn't easy for you to have a holiday, yet you decided to stay at the Faymon residence. Why don't you and Curtis go out and take a break?” Jasmine asked as she munched on a cookie.
“The children are still too young, so we don't know any suitable places to travel to. Besides, it's been busy at Faymon Group these days. Since time is so packed, we decided not to go out.” Although Rayna was bothered about their family outing, she had to consider the overall situation.
The children were too young, so it was inconvenient to bring them out. However, she was worried about leaving them at the Faymon residence too.
“That's true.” Jasmine nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Curtis' domineering aura terrified everyone in the upper management's conference room at Faymon Group's office.
“Mr. Faymon, I don't think we should put all the blame on our employees for the landslide at the real estate project at Yartran.” At the front of the conference table, a young man wearing a silver shirt broke the tense and silent atmosphere in the room.
