A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

But she didn’t answer the question.

Instead, she just told him to take Edwin to school the next morning.

Though she spoke in a formal and distant tone, Mark listened to her intently. Nowadays, it was a luxury for him to just hear her voice.

After telling him their son’s morning routine, she sighed and said, “That’s all.”

But just as she was about to hang up the phone, Mark quickly said, “Today is my birthday.”

She was surprised to hear this. She had forgotten about his birthday.

Nevertheless, now that he had told her, she wished him a happy birthday.

But Mark decided to push his luck by asking her, “Cecilia, in what capacity are you wishing me a happy birthday? My wife or Edwin’s mother?”

“How about ex-wife?” Cecilia promptly replied.

“Mark, there’s too much going on between the two of us. Edwin and Rena are caught in the middle. So, for their sake, we should maintain a non-romantic relationship. And by the way, when will you sign the divorce papers?”

“Are you in a hurry to get a new man?” Mark sneered.

“Yes,” Cecilia instantly replied.

Mark’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this and his breath became rapid.

Cecilia thought he would get mad at her, but he didn’t. He just hung up the phone.

She stared at the phone in surprise when she heard the beep that signified the end of the connection.

For the next few days, Mark stuck to playing the good father.

He took Edwin to school every morning and brought him back home in the evening.

Edwin didn’t really like it, but he didn’t object.

Every time he got into his father’s car, he would remain silent throughout the journey. Sometimes, Mark thought his son was simple, and at other times, he felt that he was hiding too many things in his heart.

Nevertheless, since Edwin was now with him, Mark could call Cecilia regularly and she usually answered the phone.

Mark would talk to her about Edwin and even some mundane things Like what they both did throughout the day. Such conversations pleased him a lot.

In his mind, he strongly believed that Cecilia would relent after some time.

As time went on, Edwin seemed to be getting used to living with Mark.

One day, while they were having dinner, Mark tried to spark up a conversation. But Edwin kept eating and didn’t say anything in response.

After a while, he raised his head and said, “If I’m with Dad, Mom will have time to go on a date with others.”

Mark’s face froze when he heard this.

His gentle and handsome face was looking very sullen at the moment.

The boy had spoken impulsively and then gone silent again.

But after eating in silence for a while, Edwin added, “Mom is still going to remarry anyway.”

At this point, Mark had lost all his appetite.

He got up and walked over to the window. Then he Lit a cigarette and stood there, smoking in silence.

Edwin looked up at Mark and he couldn’t help but feel that his father was very pitiful at this moment.

After a moment, Mark seemed to have sensed that Edwin was looking at him, so he said in a gentle voice, “Edwin, do you blame me?”

“Yes,” Edwin nodded.

It also seemed as if he had a question of his own to ask.

But Mark, Looking down at the burning cigarette in his hand, said in a soft tone, “Your mother is the only person I love. And she’s the only one I will love till the end. I will never be separated from her.”

As Edwin listened to this, his nose twitched and it looked as if he might cry.

This evening was clearly a rough one for both the father and son.

Early the next morning, while Mark was preparing to drive Edwin to school, he got a call from the villa. It was from one of the servants. She sounded very anxious.

She was calling to report that, last night, Laura had a fever.

The doctor that was called in had said that Laura might never be able to speak again.
