Cecilia said gently, “I’ll drive you to school.”

During their car ride to school, Edwin hesitated for a while before he asked gently, “Mom, can I go to the hospital to see Dad? He’s sick and appears to be in a lot of pain.”

Edwin was such a sweet little boy.

Cecilia was not unreasonable.

She replied, “I’ll take you to see him during the weekend.”

Edwin leaned against her, smiling.

Truth be told, Edwin longed for his father.

On Saturday, Cecilia visited Rena at the hospital and brought Edwin along. He wanted to see Mark.

The young boy was filled with excitement early in the morning.

He had even prepared a gift for his father.

They soon arrived at the hospital.

Edwin immediately rushed to the ward with the gift in hand.

Cecilia, who was pregnant, couldn’t move too quickly.

At the door of the ward, Edwin was about to rush inside to call his father when he suddenly stopped.

He appeared upset and frowned.

This piqued Cecilia’s curiosity.

She peered into the ward and was slightly stunned to find Mark leaning against the headboard.

On the edge of the bed, a stranger was reading a fairy tale book to a little girl. Mark gazed at the child tenderly.

It was Laura, Cathy’s daughter.

Laura was unable to speak, but she could hear. Mark felt sympathy for her.

He had taken her in but couldn’t provide her with a complete home.

After a moment of silence, he noticed Cecilia and Edwin at the door.

Children couldn’t hide their feelings well.

Edwin had been excited tofinally see his father, but seeing Laura with him, he felt awkward and irritated. He placed the gift on the table, turned and ran away.

Cecilia glanced at Mark and followed Edwin, calling after him.

Edwin cried. His Uncle Waylen had told him that boys shouldn’t cry easily, but he couldn’t help it.

Mark was his father.

Cecilia felt sorry for her son.

Edwin had to bear the consequences of her relationship with Mark, even though he did nothing wrong.

She hugged Edwin, kissed him, and suggested, “We’ll come again next time, okay?”

Edwin sobbed and replied, “I don’t want to come back again.”

Cecilia didn’t blame him.

She wiped his tears and said, “How about we go to Rena’s ward to see little Elva? You like your cousin a lot, don’t you?”

Edwin mustered a weak smile.

His smile was more heartrending than his tears.

Cecilia kissed him once more and said, “Well, you’re a little man.”

They then left.

Mark slowly exited the ward, leaning against the wall as he silently watched them leave. He was well aware that both Edwin and Cecilia were hurting.

He yearned to explain, but it seemed futile.

He couldn’t provide her with anything now.

Time had passed swiftly.

Mark reminisced about how energetic and full of life he used to be.

However, he now couldn’t even admit openly that he loved her.

The servant recognized her mistake ran over and blamed herself.

“Mr. Evans, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have brought Laura to see you.”

But Mark remained silent.

His body ached, but his heart hurt even more.

He had been too focused on his career for decades, and later he actually wanted to offer Cecilia a lifetime of happiness, but sadly he couldn’t make it happen.

Meanwhile, there were visitors in Rena’s ward.

Albert and his mother Helen came to see Rena.

Helen had recovered and expressed great affection for Elva, purchasing many baby gifts for her.

As Albert sat on the sofa, he had mixed feelings.

Elva was very adorable.

However, knowing that she was Waylen’s child, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

Helen, being perceptive, noticed her son’s inner turmoil and with a smile, asked, “Don’t you want to hold the baby?”

Before Albert could respond, Helen placed the baby in his arms.

Albert was hesitant, but Elva’s cuteness won him over.

Elva fixed her bright black eyes on Albert, and inexplicably, Albert’s heart skipped a beat. In a hushed tone, he asked, “Why are you gazing at me like that, little one?”

Rena smiled and explained, “She can’t see clearly. Newborns can only see things within 20 centimeters.”
