A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 1648

At this point, Cecilia was already too exhausted to argue. She just flashed him a dry smile. She knew Cathy would definitely do something in the future.

Mark swallowed hard as he felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness engulf him. Based on the look on Cecilia’s face, he could easily tell that she was serious with her pronouncement.

By now, the atmosphere between them had grown heavy and tense. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

ALL of a sudden, Edwin woke up.

As he rubbed the sleep off his eyes, the first thing he saw was Mark.

Edwin had always been afraid of Mark, so the moment he saw Mark, he immediately sat up.

“Uncle!” he blurted out.

Mark mussed his hair and said, “You silly boy. You should call me dad!”

Edwin wanted to jump into Mark’s arms, but a thought occurred in his mind and stopped him from doing so. He gnashed his teeth and remained stationary for a while. When he looked up at Mark, his eyes were bubbling with tears.

Today, Edwin saw Mark holding another child in his arms.

Seeing the hurt on Edwin’s face, Mark felt his heart crack.

“You silly boy! That girl’s not my child!”

Edwin was a simple-minded boy. The moment he heard Mark’s explanation, he immediately threw himself into Mark’s arms without uttering a single word.

Mark smiled as he comfortingly rubbed Edwin’s back.

Then, he turned his attention to Cecilia and said to her in hushed tones, “Stay at my place for one night. Tomorrow morning, I’LL drive you back to Duefron.”

Cecilia shook her head and refused.

“I’LL go back by myself,” she insisted.

Mark let out an exasperated sigh. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Our issue should be resolved in private. Don’t cause a scene, okay? I’ve already called Zoey and told her you’ll come and see her today. She’s happy with it.”

When Mark invoked Zoey’s name, Cecilia remembered the kindness Zoey had been showing to her, and tears welled up immediately.

Cecilia sniffled before wiping her nose with the back of her hand.

After a long pause, she said, “I don’t need you to drive me back tomorrow!”

Judging from her words, Mark already knew that words were now powerless to coax her.

He didn’t say anything anymore. Instead, he simply carried her luggage and got into the car with them.
