She was browsing through a magazine while considering Lingerie choices for the upcoming wedding.

The wedding dress was significant. But the smaller details of married life were also important, particularly for newlyweds seeking to spice things up. She savored the look in Mark’s eyes when he held her.

Mark hadn’t originally intended this.

But when he saw what Cecilia was reading, he couldn’t resist.

He sat on the edge of the bed, lifting her pajamas to touch her belly.

Blushing, she asked, “What are you doing?”

Mark smiled.

“I’m checking if you’re pregnant.”

With that, he activated a switch at the bedside.

Immediately, the curtain closed and the room darken. He lifted the covers and held her beneath him.

Cecilia playfully pushed his shoulder and asked, “Aren’t you supposed to attend a meeting?”

Mark raised his hand and checked his watch.

He still had time.

He continued to caress her. Cecilia was swept up in the moment and her face flushed.

“I’m trying to tell you something serious.”

Mark smiled.

He continued to tenderly stroke her belly and asked, “Edwin desires a little sister, doesn’t he?”

Cecilia wrapped her arms around his neck with one hand and gently restrained him with the other. She didn’t want him to go any further at the moment.

Blushing, she reached out to touch his handsome face, only to discover that his skin was also warm. Unable to contain her excitement, she whispered, “I want to have another baby. After completing this film, I intend to take a temporary break from filming.

Additionally, we can bring Zoey here, which will provide Edwin with a companion to look after him.”

Mark tenderly caressed her using the bridge of his nose.

Her pajamas fell to the floor.

There seemed to be a moment of hesitation, but Mark eventually withdrew his hand from the drawer and embraced her body, kissing her more passionately than before.

Minutes later, their intimate encounter ended.

Mark curled up beside her, tenderly resting his hand on her belly.

Cecilia speculated that perhaps she would get pregnant this time.

She remained in his embrace, her heart still racing. She softly asked, “Aren’t you going to the company now?”

Mark kissed her, dressed, and went to the bathroom to change his shirt.

She noticed some semen and her juices on his discarded shirt, which made her feel slightly embarrassed.

Mark returned with a new shirt and kissed her.

“Have a good rest.

And don’t worry about Edwin. I’ll pick him up.”

Cecilia obediently nodded, raising her body to return his kiss. Her face flushed.

Mark whispered, “We’ll have another round tonight when I return.”

The atmosphere in the bedroom remained sweet even after he left.

Cecilia lovingly touched her belly.

It was still warm from Mark’s touch.

She noted that they hadn’t used any contraception during their earlier encounter, indicating his desire for a child.

Cecilia felt elated and rolled around on the bed. But her excitement was interrupted when her hand brushed against something hard.

She discovered Mark’s phone on the bed.

Although she didn’t intend to snoop, a message from Cathy appeared on the screen, catching her attention.

Mark’s phone wasn’t locked, and curiosity got the better of Cecilia.

She opened the message and found that over the past two weeks, Cathy had sent numerous messages, most of which were about Laura. Cathy’s tone was gentle, but Mark had barely responded to any of them.

There was only one response from him last week.

“Laura is being well taken care of.”

Cecilia’s body tensed, and she felt a chill.

The simple message left her deeply troubled.

Mark and Cathy’s relationship resembled that of divorced couples, connected through their shared responsibility for a child. The ironic part was that the child wasn’t even Mark’s.

Just as she was processing the message, Mark entered the room.

He saw her in a daze and noticed his phone in her hand.

Mark could sense what she had discovered. He approached and gently retrieved his phone, promptly deleting the message from Cathy. He affectionately rubbed Cecilia’s head and offered reassuring words.

“Don’t dwell on it.”

Cecilia lifted her head and softly asked, “Can’t you just stay out of it?”

Mark had already fulfilled his duty by assisting the Thomas family in regaining custody of Laura. He had done enough, hadn’t he?

Mark then blacklisted Cathy.

He kissed Cecilia. Despite her sadness, she wrapped her arms around his waist.

Mark assured her, “I won’t concern myself with this matter anymore.

If anything happens in the Thomas family, I’ll have Peter handle it.”

Cecilia comprehended the situation.

She was a reasonable person.

Despite the difficulty of accepting the situation, she recognized the need to process it on her own. Therefore, she chose not to disclose the matter to Waylen and Rena. Cecilia believed in her need to mature and not burden her brother and sister-in-law with every concern.

Cecilia’s wedding to Mark was scheduled for early April.
