A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

The servant was aware that something had occurred within Mark’s family, so she refrained from bothering him and promptly took Laura out of the hospital.

Since the age of six, Laura had never uttered another word.

On the day Edwin was discharged from the hospital, Cecilia packed up his things.

The driver was waiting downstairs.

Mark had just gotten off from the company.

As he observed the things she was carrying, he gently suggested, “Go to my place and stay there for a while.”

Cecilia shook her head.

Mark understood her thoughts, so he refrained from pressuring her “You can go to your parents’ place then. Edwin will be taken care of.”

Cecilia shook her head again.

Standing by the window, she said softly, “Mark, I want to start a new life.”

Mark was puzzled by her words.

Cecilia glanced at the car parked outside and said in a hushed tone, “I’ve hired two dependable people to assist me in taking care of Edwin. I will plan my own life. If you want to see Edwin, you can make an appointment one week in advance.”

Mark clenched his fists.

He grasped her intention. She not only desired a divorce but also custody of their child.

If he wanted to visit, he would only see Edwin, not her.

Mark approached her slowly.

Staring at her slender back, he asked hoarsely, “Can’t we care for our child together?”

Cecilia turned to face him.

She said firmly, “Mark, sign the divorce papers. It’s over between us.”

“Cecilia…” Mark tried to control his emotions.

“No matter what I do, it’s useless, isn’t it? In the end, you’ll leave with our son, won’t you? For the sake of our past, please forgive me for this once!”

“This has nothing to do with forgiveness.”

After a brief pause, Cecilia continued slowly, “I just don’t want you anymore.”

Mark’s forehead bulged with veins.

Cecilia was lost in thought as she looked blankly at the man’s features, so similar to Rena’s, Chapter 422 Mark, How Did I Even Fall In..

They were in the hospital ward, and someone, perhaps a nurse, could walk in at any moment. Hence, Cecilia was trying not to get into a quarrel with Mark.

But nonetheless, she understood the situation.

She already knew that it would not be easy at all for her to get a divorce.

“Well, let’s stop this blame game,” she said with a shrug as she played with a lock of her long hair.

“I have something to deal with this afternoon. So let’s just hurry up and finish Edwin’s discharge procedures.”

With that, she turned around and made to walk out of the ward.

But Mark grabbed her hand and looked into her eyes.

“At least, let me drive you guys home,” he offered.

Cecilia looked back at him but said nothing in response.

Mark swallowed and went on in a gentle tone, “I admit I didn’t do well and I know you don’t want to talk to me anymore, but I’m Edwin’s father. It’s impossible for you to keep him away from me, you know.”

Cecilia knew exactly what was on Mark’s mind.

He just wanted to break down her walls and slowly soften her heart so that she would accept him again.

But what he didn’t know was that her heart was already dead.

“Whatever,” she scoffed and shook off his hand.

Peter was the one who eventually went through the discharge formalities. When he was done, he came to Cecilia and said with a smile, “What a pity! I have something to deal with at the company.

But I think Mr. Evans can drive you home.”

In fact, Mark was already seated in the driver seat while Edwin was in the back seat.

Cecilia had no choice but to get in. She sat in the back seat with her son and told Mark the address of their destination.

But Mark turned to look at her and asked, “Don’t you want to sit in the front?”

Cecilia turned her face away and said, “People change with time.”

It was very clear what she meant.

Mark immediately understood it. His face darkened, but he said nothing in response.

Half an hour later, he rolled the car to a stop at their destination which was a high-end apartment.

It was actually a large duplex that spanned over an area of about 260 square meters.

It was beautifully decorated, with a wonderful view.

Holding Edwin’s hand, Mark looked around the area and he couldn’t help but think of their old apartment. It made him feel really sad and he leaned down and gave his son a kiss on the forehead.

Edwin had just recovered from a serious illness and was looking quite listless.

So Mark picked him up and carried him straight to his room, putting him down on the bed. Even though it was the end of April, Edwin’s feet were quite cold.

After laying him down, Mark took off his coat and lay down beside the boy.

Then he put Edwin’s feet on his belly.

The child would be warmer and more comfortable like this.

Edwin himself wanted to feel comfortable, but he was angry with his father, so he just lay there and said nothing.

Mark’s heart melted when he saw his child lying so calmly and quietly.

He touched his feet to feel their temperature and found it to be improving.
