Meanwhile, Mark was still on his knees.

Rena felt pity for him and wanted to help him up.

But Waylen patted her hand to keep her quiet.

Then he looked at Mark and said, “Mark, you know that all this is useless and unnecessary right now. Before you left, Cecilia made it clear that she will have nothing to do with you from the moment you walked away from your own wedding.”

Mark’s face turned pale as he was reminded of Cecilia’s promise.

“No one in the Fowler family blames you,” Waylen continued.

“In fact, we simply believe that you and Cecilia are not meant for each other.”

As Waylen said these things, Laura was watching Mark’s face and she could see that his beautiful eyes had lost their Luster.

With gritted teeth, Mark got up and went outside with Laura in his arms.

He had known that Zoey would not accept this child. And if he wanted to get back together with Cecilia, he could not keep Laura around.

So, he took Laura to Duefron.

He bought a small villa and kept her there. Then he hired two servants to take care of her.

He couldn’t help but feel guilty because of what he had done to Cecilia.

It was three days later that he finally met her again.

She was no longer living in the house she shared with him. Instead, she had moved back to the Fowler residence for the meantime so that Korbyn and Juliette could take good care of Edwin.

Mark had to go to the filming location before he could see Cecilia.

It was April and she looked young and beautiful in her light green dress.

She was talking and laughing with a young actor on set.

The young actor, who was probably in his early 20s, looked at Cecilia with admiration. In the past, she would probably have avoided such admirers, but she was single now, so there was no reason for her to turn down the admiration from the opposite sex.

Sitting in his black Limo, Mark watched them quietly.

Peter became very anxious for his sake.

After a while, he suggested, “It’s time for Lunch. You can at least go over and ask her to lunch.”

Mark said nothing and simply put out his cigarette. Nowadays, he smoked at least two packs of cigarettes a day. His slender fingers had even turned a little yellow.

Without a word, he opened the car door and got out of the car.

When he appeared in front of Cecilia, she seemed surprised, but she quickly recovered her composure.

Those that were nearby also looked at Mark.

But Mark’s eyes were focused purely on Cecilia.

“Let’s go and have lunch,” he said to her.

He thought Cecilia was going to make a scene, but to his astonishment, she agreed without any hesitation. She gently flipped her beautiful black hair and told her colleagues that she was going for lunch. Then she followed Mark into the car without even taking her assistant with her.

As soon as they got in the car, Peter started attempting to liven up the atmosphere.

“Cecilia, you look so beautiful today. Mr. Evans has been staring at you from a distance. I’m sure he was saying to himself that he has never seen such a beautiful girl before,” he joked with a wide smile on his face.

Cecilia fastened her seat belt and looked at Mark.

“Oh, really? But I bet Mr. Evans has seen his fair share of the world, hasn’t he?” she teased.

Peter was taken aback and wasn’t sure how to respond to her witty remark.

Mark’s face darkened, but he made no fuss. Instead, without answering her question, he said to Cecilia, “Let’s have Chinese food.”

“I don’t mind,” Cecilia shrugged carelessly.

She looked a lot more at ease than she was on the wedding day. It seemed her pain had been healed in just three days, and their relationship didn’t matter to her anymore.

This realization made Mark feel very bad.

But he pretended that everything was okay because he wanted to have a good conversation with her.

Perhaps intentionally, he ended up taking her to the same restaurant they ate at in the past and even booked the same private room that they once occupied.

Mark once put an amulet on her arm in this very room.

Cecilia was so emotional that she almost cried. But she quickly held it back and assumed a normal demeanor.

Mark was very gentle and considerate to her.

And Cecilia also enjoyed her meal. Neither of them mentioned the unpleasant past, or perhaps they were both thinking about how to start talking about it.

Mark himself didn’t eat much.

Halfway through his meal, he took out a cigarette and lit it.

“My throat has not been feeling well recently. Put out the cigarette please,” Cecilia said.

So Mark did just that.

Then he put his arm around her shoulder and asked her in a whisper, “Have you been crying these days?”

Obviously, he wanted to talk about the events that occurred on the wedding day.

Cecilia gently put down her cutlery and said, “Yes, I admit I cried many times, but no matter how many times I cry, it wouldn’t change anything.”

“Cathy is dead,” Mark suddenly mumbled.

Cecilia knew what he was trying to say.

She shook her head and said, “Mark, whether she died or not, it can’t change my decision. It’s not about whether I love you or not, it’s just that I don’t want you anymore.”

Mark’s fingers trembled slightly as he pulled out another cigarette.
