Chapter 185 - Please Come Back To Me

Ren sat Fae in the dining room chair. Then he put on an apron and opened the refrigerator door to take out the groceries.

"Linda told me your favorite food and I tried to make it," said Ren. He took the pasta and began to boil water to cook it. Then, he took out several types of sauce and ground beef and vegetables.

Fae was stunned to see what he was doing. She never imagined that Ren would act like this.

Did Ren really change after going through a traumatic event and finally realized that he didn't want to lose Fae and their children?

Tears slowly rolled down Fae's cheeks as she watched her husband cut vegetables and prepare her favorite dish.

She was touched that Ren finally changed ...

"Why are you crying?" Ren asked, not understanding, as he looked up and saw Fae shed tears again. 

Fae shook her head and looked away. Ren sighed and then resumed his work. Half an hour later, on the table was served a dish of pasta, black pepper steak, and Caprese salad.

"Let me feed you," said Ren quickly when he saw Fae about to take a knife and fork. "Your hand still hurts."

Fae was about to protest, but Ren had put away her cutlery and swiftly passed the Caprese salad to her lips.

Fae frowned. "I can eat by myself."

"Later, when you have fully recovered. But now let me take care of you ..." said Ren firmly.

He kept waiting until Fae opened her mouth and held the Caprese salad in front of the girl's lips. Finally, Fae gave up and ate the tomato that Ren fed her.

"I know you like the steak cut into small pieces," said Ren again. He cut the steak on Fae's plate into small and neat slices then fed them to her too.

When Fae chewed her food, then Ren would cut his food and chew. He also fed Fae pasta and other dishes.

"I am full." Fae refused the next meal that Ren was about to feed her.

"A little bit more?" asked Ren, trying to coax her to open her mouth.

Fae shook her head. "I don't want to eat anymore."

Ren sighed and lowered his fork. "Fine. I don't really have an appetite either."

When he was about to carry Fae back to her room, the girl refused. "I can walk on my own."

"All right. But let me help you walk," said Ren, still unwilling to give up. He held Fae's shoulder so that she didn't fell and made sure the girl could walk without falling to her room.

They walked slowly and finally arrived there. It was snowing heavily again from outside the window and the sight made Fae feel gloomy. What a cold and gray New Year, she thought.

Ren sat beside Fae and watched the falling snow. His honey eyes were filled with sadness.

Every time he pretended to be calm and relaxed in front of Fae, his heart felt like it was stabbed with a knife. He hadn't even processed his own grief and the wound in his heart was not healed, but he had to look fine in front of Fae so that his wife would not be suspicious.

"Fae ..." the silence in the room was then broken by Ren's hoarse voice.

He stretched out his hand and squeezed Fae's left hand gently. The girl still didn't want to turn to him. She was busy watching the snow falling.

"I want us to get back together. I've thought a lot about it over the past two weeks." Ren's words that were spoken firmly made Fae finally turn her head. She looked at the man with sad eyes.

"We've talked about this. When you came to see me at my boss's penthouse, I told you that I am pregnant and I want to keep it, but you chose to leave. It showed to me that you are still the same as before," said Fae finally. She shook her head sadly. "I've accepted that fact. We've also discussed what we're going to do now. You and I want different things, and I understand that in your current situation, you can't accept us."

"No ... that's not it. I told you a few days ago. I left because I needed time to think, and I've been thinking. Now I've made up my mind," Ren squeezed Fae's hand again. His tears began to streamed down his cheeks. "I TRULY LOVE our children. What happened to you has opened my eyes, that nothing is more important than you and the children ... Now I don't care about anything anymore. Moravia, being the crown prince, and all of that is not important ... I just want you to come back to me. "

Fae was stunned to see Ren looking so sad and sincere. Especially when her husband's tears flowed down his face. Ren seemed filled with deep regret. Fae had a naturally kind heart and seeing this man looking so regretful, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

Slowly she raised her right hand and rubbed Ren's face. The man closed his eyes and enjoyed Fae's hand stroking his face. His tears flowed even more profusely.

"Oh, Ren ..." Fae shook her head. She could not bear to see this aloof grown man cry and beg for forgiveness from her.

Fae loved her husband. From the moment they met, she had kept admiration and love for Ren. The day they got married was one of the happiest days of her life.

Ren stared deeply at Fae with his brown eyes filled with grief. "Please ... come back to me. I promise, I will forget all the bad things and leave them behind me. Right now, my only concern is you and our children."

Fae bit her lip. She could not refuse. She really loved this man.

Finally, she nodded slowly.

Ren's pair of eyes that had lost their light seemed to gradually gleam, and his lips curved slightly, into a smile of relief.

"I promise, I'll make you happy ..." he whispered as he grabbed Fae's head and hugged her very tightly.

They hugged for a while until finally, Ren let go of his hug. His face seemed to brighten a little. His tears were still flowing, but Fae didn't see him as dejected as before. Maybe Ren really just wanted Fae back.

"You really want to accept our children and raise them together?" asked Fae in a doubtful voice. She stared at Ren closely.

"I only live for our children," said Ren with a nod. He then touched Fae's chin and kissed her lips gently. 

Fae returned the kiss automatically. She couldn't remember the last time their lips touched like this. 

Ah, that's right. The last time they kissed was last month when she told Ren about her pregnancy and then left.

She tried not to think about the bad events that happened afterward and only focused her attention on the two babies in her womb and on Ren, who had now changed.

Their kisses were tender and warm. Ren let go before his desire rose. He didn't want to sleep with Fae while his wife was still weak after the surgery.

Later, once Fae fully recovered, and they could retreat to a new place, he would try to get Fae pregnant again, before he would tell Fae what really happened when Amelia shot her in the pavilion.

He knew this was a really bad thing to do, because nothing, nothing could replace their unborn children.... but he felt that was the only way to ease his wife's pain when she found out the truth.
