She had heard that there was a place where her uncle used to share with Cecilia.

However, this was the first time that she had ever come here.

Based on her initial impression, this place seemed really nice!

After cutting the apple into smaller pieces, she gave Mark a few of them.

“You look like a filial daughter right now,” he said to her with a smile.

When he said that, the first person that came to Rena’s mind was Cecilia.

“I’m only a year younger than Cecilia. Do you think she’s old enough to be your child?”

The look on Mark’s eyes communicated a myriad of emotions.

After a while, he pretended to act cool and asked, “How’s she getting along with Thomas? I’ve seen him come to the Fowler’s house twice. They’re getting along pretty well, aren’t they?”

Rena looked away and said nothing.

After all, she had promised to Waylen that neither of them would favor either Mark or Cecilia.

She simply gave a small smile.

While Mark remained silent, Peter blurted, “Oh, Rena! Don’t keep us guessing! If you don’t tell the truth, it will make Mr. Evans more anxious! It’s not good for his condition!”

With her smile still intact, Rena tucked Mark in.

Then, with a smile, she said, “Uncle Mark, you’re so smart. I don’t think you need me to answer that question. You know what you should do. You’ve been so magnanimous that even Waylen is surprised.”

Peter understood what she had meant by that.

Mark, on the other hand, simply smiled.

Suddenly, Rena’s face turned serious. She said softly, “The most important thing right now is for you to take good care of your body.

Otherwise, you might end up hurting Cecilia again. Do you want that to happen?”

Rena’s tone carried a slight hint of reproach.

She chastised him for going out of his way just for a moment of alone with her last night.

Mark swallowed hard as he looked away and uttered, I won’t do that again.”

Rena pouted her Lips and didn’t say anything more. Both of them were smart people-they didn’t need to be explicit with their words for them to understand each other.

Rena stayed for two hours and cooked lunch for Mark.

After she left, Mark had Lunch and felt much better.

He sat quietly on the sofa in the living room and read the newspaper.

After taking a nap at noon, his phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the screen and saw an unknown number flashing.

With furrowed brows, Mark answered the phone.

“This is Mark,” he said.

No one was speaking on the other line. ALL Mark could hear was the sound of someone hyperventilating.

Mark patiently waited for the other person to speak.

After a while, he figured out who it was. His tone softened as he asked, “Edwin, is that you?”

Indeed, it was Edwin who was on the phone.

Edwin was still cross and had a mean face on. After a while, he finally said, “You said you were going to come back!”

Upon hearing this, Mark’s heart twitched.

“It’s my fault,” he apologized sincerely.

“Are you at home now? I’ll go and pick you up, okay?”

Edwin didn’t say anything.

Mark further coaxed, “How about I take you out with your little sister? Let’s go eat your favorite fried chicken!”

Edwin bit his lip before saying, “She can’t eat that.”

“Then I will bring her bottle,” Mark responded.

Edwin didn’t say anything, which Mark took as him agreeing to his invite.

“I’ll be there soon,” he told him.

“Great-uncle,” Edwin awkwardly called him before hanging up the phone.

Mark was surprised to hear the call suddenly drop. But after a while, he smiled and turned to Peter.

“It’s okay. As long as he’s happy.

Peter, I’m going to pick up Edwin and Olivia. The three of us will go out. Get me a car quickly.”

Hearing this, Peter flashed a wide grin.

“This is such a nice plan!”

After saying that, he called the driver and then began ironing Mark’s clothes.

When Mark arrived at the Fowler’s house, several happy children ran out to him, happily calling him their great uncle.

Mark brought them cupcakes.
