Why did the child from Mark’s suite call Cecilia “mommy”?

Peter smiled at Aline and asked, “Do you know each other? That’s a surprise!

Still, let me introduce you to Rena. She is Mr. Evans’ niece.”

Disapproval crept onto Aline’s face.

She had known that Rena had influential connections but she didn’t expect her to be part of Mark’s family.

At that moment, Mark himself came downstairs.

He touched Edwin’s head and then glanced at Rena reproachfully. “Why can’t you take care of yourself, just like Edwin? The air conditioner is set so low and you’re showing your legs. You care too much about appearance.”

Mark took off his coat and placed it over Rena’s legs, touching her head, just as he had done to Edwin.

Rena wanted to say something, but Mark had already left with Peter. In the car, he sent a message to Cecilia, “Are you jealous?”

Initially, Cecilia had no intention of responding to Mark but she couldn’t resist the urge.

“Who’s jealous?”

After a while, Mark’s message arrived.

“Rena is my niece. Are you even jealous of a junior?”

Cecilia was left speechless.

She believed he did it deliberately when he took off his coat and draped it on Rena’s lap — just to send that message later.

But there was one person who took notice of all this.

It was Aline.

Initially disdainful of Rena, witnessing Mark, a powerful man, care for her like a child pained her deeply.

How was it that Rena always seemed to effortlessly obtain everything she desired?

Though Rena struggled with a mental illness, her influential family background ensured that Waylen would never leave her.

Savoring her cup o

Rena lowered her head momentarily.

Eventually, she looked up and locked her gaze with Aline’s. “You shattered Vera’s marriage years ago. Now, despite being married yourself and experiencing a favorable outcome, you still seek to harm others and tempt Waylen. Aline, I must ask, did you do it all intentionally?”

Aline was left speechless.

In that moment, she received a message from Peter, informing her that despite family meant a lot to Mark, he was willing to collaborate with her husband after all.

A renewed sense of hope surged within Aline.

She arrogantly glanced at Rena, saying, “Let’s wait and see.”

Once Aline departed, Rena observed her retreating figure.

Softly, Cecilia inquired, “Rena, does she bother you?”

Rena shook her head, taking her time to respond. “I just find her repulsive.

In the past, she inflicted significant harm upon Vera and now she repeats her actions. A person like her can never lead a good life.”

Rena didn’t wish to elaborate further. She picked up Mark’s coat and handed it to Cecilia.

Cecilia was taken aback.

Rena smiled faintly and explained, “He intended for you to have it. His previous words were actually directed at you. He was concerned you might feel cold.”

Embarrassed, Cecilia blushed as she held the coat emanating a masculine aura. In one of the pockets, she felt something solid.

Her hand delved into the pocket and found a velvet box.

Gently, she opened it…

In a mysterious box rested a resplendent diamond ring.

A dazzling gem, approximately 12 carats in size.

Cecilia stood motionless, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

Years ago, when she was with Mark, she would often dream of him proposing with a diamond ring while they embraced. Back then, her heart brimmed with hope for their future.

Now, their child had grown up and the diamond ring remained concealed in Mark’s pocket.

Cecilia pondered the depths of misfortune that enveloped both her and Mark…

Clasping onto his mother, Edwin inquired softly, “Why are you crying, Mommy?”

Cecilia shook her head, unable to find the words to explain.

Rena gently touched Edwin’s head, embracing him as she whispered to Cecilia, “Over the years, my uncle always spoke of you with intention. I believe this diamond ring was meant for you.”

Rena chose not to plead Mark’s case.

After all, Cecilia had devoted her entire youth to him for four long years.

But how Long could a woman’s youth last?

Rena led Edwin away, leaving Cecilia with work to do, yet her emotions were turbulent. Seated in the car, she cried bitterly, transporting her back to the day when Mark abandoned her, leaving her feeling utterly helpless.

Mark’s coat was draped over Cecilia’s lap.

She knew he had done it deliberately, trying to ensnare her once again.

For his so-called career, he had almost sacrificed her entirely. How could he have the audacity to present her with a ring now?

Cecilia wept like a vulnerable young girl.

Just then, her phone began to ring-it was Mark calling. Her assistant saw the caller ID and hesitated for a moment before picking up.
