A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

ALL of a sudden, Waylen’s phone rang. When he looked at it, he saw Cecilia’s name flashing on the screen.

“Could you answer it for me?” he asked Rena. His attention was focused on driving, so he could not answer it himself.

Rena obliged and picked up the phone.

“Hello, Cecilia,” she said.

“Rena!” Cecilia cried in excitement as soon as she heard Rena’s voice.

“Can you tell my brother to prepare a private plane for me?”

Hearing this, Rena’s brows slightly furrowed.

“To Czanch? Does Mark know about this?”

Whenever Cecilia was around Rena, she always acted like a spoiled child.

“His project is about to be Launched in two days,” Cecilia explained.

“I want to go there with Edwin and give Mark a surprise.”

“That sounds great!” Rena cheered with a _ smile. I’ll make arrangements for you.

“You’re the best, Rena!” After saying that, Cecilia hung up the phone.

Rena placed the phone inside the storage box and told Waylen about it. Once she was done, Waylen smiled and said, “Cecilia was head over heels in love with Mark. She’s only been back for a few days, yet she’s already in such a hurry to go back to Mark’s side.”

Rena didn’t fully agree with him.

In hushed tones, she replied, “They’ve been apart for so many years, and their relationship had suffered major setbacks. She just values their relationship too much and doesn’t bear to be separate from him.”

Waylen pursed his lips and didn’t say anything more. He couldn’t help but feel sorry for Cecilia.

On the other end, as soon as Cecilia ended the call with Rena, she began preparing her luggage.

Since she would only be there for two days at most, she thought that a small suitcase would be more than enough for both herself and Edwin, whom she would be taking with her.

That night, after finishing work, Cecilia lay on the bed in the apartment and called Mark.

Since the launch was about to begin, Mark would undoubtedly be very busy.

As such, he had only a few moments to speak with her during midnight.

“Are you tired, Mark?” Cecilia asked.

Mark had just come home and was in the middle of unbuttoning his shirt. He was supposed to take a shower when Cecilia called him.

“Fortunately, you’re not here,” he told her.

Cecilia blushed and pretended not to understand what he meant.

After a while, she asked about the project launch.

Mark splashed his face with some water and answered softly, “I wanted to ask you to come here, but I’m going to be very busy by then. I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to take care of you two.”

Hearing this, Cecilia felt a twinge in her heart.

This was supposed to be one of the most important moments in Mark’s life. She wanted to be by his side when this happened, but unfortunately, he didn’t invite her to witness the moment with him.

However, Cecilia was sure Mark would be surprised to see her if she showed up by then. She wouldn’t need Mark to pay extra attention to take care of her.

With this in mind, Cecilia felt a lot better.

Since they had been away from each other for half a month already, it was only natural for them to have lots of sweet things to say to each other.

Worried that Mark might be too tired, she asked him to rest more before hanging up the phone.

On the other end, Mark put down his phone and kept a blank face as he tried his best to make sure that his emotions didn’t show.

He was actually glad that Cecilia wouldn’t be coming. He knew that if she saw Cathy, she would likely overthink again.

Cecilia busied herself with work. On the night of the launch of Mark’s project, she arrived at Czanch.

As a member of the Fowler family, Cecilia didn’t have to get an invitation from Mark to get to the scene. However, the spot she got wasn’t in the center.

At night, the area was illuminated with Lights.

Edwin’s eyes were wide in awe as he took in his surroundings.

He looked up at Cecilia and said in a low voice, “Mom, aside from the big rocket, we also get to see my daddy, right?”

With a smile, Cecilia picked him up and placed him atop her shoulders so that he could have a better view.

Edwin grabbed on to her hair to make sure that he wasn’t going to fall.

The venue was packed with people.

After a long wait, a huge white object lit up and produced a loud bang. It launched upwards, with white smoke trailing behind it.

“We did it. It’s in the sky!”

Everyone watched with bated breaths as an immeasurable joy filled their hearts.

This was the culmination of four years’ worth of hard work. Finally, it had paid off.

As Cecilia watched the rocket ascend into the sky, she couldn’t help but tear up a little. She knew how hard Mark had been working on this, and now, the fruits of his labor was here for everyone to see.

She felt genuinely happy for him.

At this moment, she wanted to say congratulations to him in person.

Since she was born into a rich family, she always got what she wanted effortlessly and seldom had opportunities to experience something as exciting as this. It wasn’t just about love.

She brought her son down and carried him in her arms instead.

“Mommy will take you to your daddy,” she told him.

When they reached a quieter area, she tried calling Mark, but no one answered.

She assumed that he was busy with work, so she decided to call Peter instead.

After just a single ring, Peter answered.

“Cecilia, are you looking for Mr. Evans?” he asked enthusiastically.

“I am,” Cecilia responded.

“I’m actually at the scene of the Launch.

Where’s Mark? I want to see him right now.”

As soon as Peter heard this, he felt a lump form in his throat.

After a long pause, he said in hushed tones, “I think Mr. Evans is currently dealing with something. How about I send a car to drive you and Edwin toward the Evans’ house? Once he’s done with work, he will rush back to see you.”

Cecilia didn’t sense something was amiss and just let it pass.
