A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love
Chapter 1971-1980
Chapter 1971 The sudden heat startled him.
‘Alarmed, Edwin noted the fevered flush on Mark's face.
His intention to call the servant halted as the door swung open.
Cecilia's voice echoed with concern.
“How's Edwin? Is Mark still here?” As the servant stirred a pot of light yet nutritious soup, she chimed in, “The boy's fever broke. Mr. Evans has been by his side all night. Last night's rain was fierce, and I noticed he had a cut on his forehead.” Cecilia hastened inside.
Edwin, though wan, looked rejuvenated.
Cecilia enveloped him, relief evident.
Eyes brimming with worry, Edwin whispered, “Dad's running a fever. He's burning up.” Frozen, Cecilia processed the revelation.
Rushing to Mark's side, she noted his damp hair and the bathrobe he wore.
‘A mix of fear and concern, she laid her hand on his forehead, confirming Edwin's claim.
The servant interjected, “He braved the storm last night. He must've caught something. It’s unfortunate. Mr. Evans has always been frail.
What if." Edwin's face drained of color.
Trembling, he clung to Cecilia's leg.
‘Composure regained, Cecilia dialed 911.
“Harmony Apartment. We need an ambulance.” Next, she reached out to Peter, urging him to alert Mark's physician to meet them at the hospital.
Ts RE EEE Ce 5 Sin sit Koos With wobbly legs, she leaned against the bed, her touch lingering on Mark's heated brow.
Silent in his determination, Edwin fetched a towel, dabbing away the moisture from his father’s form.
His resolute actions weighed on Cecilia's heart.
Chapter 1972 In a soft call, she said, “Edwin.” Eyes glistening, Edwin's voice broke.
“Will my great uncle be okay?” “He will,” Cecilia whispered, tears streaming down her face.
Soon after, the ambulance sirens signaled its arrival.
Cecilia made the decision not to allow Edwin to accompany them, asking the servant to tend to him and Olivia instead.
By the time she got to the hospital, Peter was already there, and the medical team was prepped and waiting.
Mark lay pale and motionless on the emergency stretcher, caught in a semi-conscious state.
His primary doctor quickly assessed him, frustration evident.
“Given his condition, he should have been more cautious. He could've lost his life.” Peter nervously wrung his hands.
As Mark underwent examination, Cecilia, with a vacant stare towards the overhead lights, confided in Peter.
“Mark faced that storm just to be with ailing Edwin." It wasn't until she followed the paramedics downstairs that Cecilia noticed Mark's damaged car.
She tried to imagine Mark's perilous journey through the downpour.
Despite his naturally cautious nature, his commitment to Edwin had driven him.
He had wanted to dispel Edwin's doubts about his affection, even at personal risk.
Recollections of Mark's poignant words flooded her thoughts.
“I'm not the young man I once was, Cecilia. Time is fleeting.” With a shaky exhale, tears slipped from her eyes onto the sterile floor.
She whispered to Peter, “You think I didn’t treat him right, don’t you?" Caught off guard, Peter sighed.
“It's complicated, Cecilia. No one else would understand Mr. Evans the way you do, but also, he wouldn't have held on to anyone the way he has with you.” Peter connected with Cecilia during the prolonged wait.
Chapter 1973 “How is Laura's leg?” Cecilia inquired gently.
“She's on the mend. She'll be back on her feet in a few months,” Peter replied.
Cecilia gave a slight nod.
“Could you get her a gift for me later? A toy or something. Just... don't let her know it's from me.” Peter looked conflicted.
Over the years, he had seen the ebb and flow of right and wrong, and he wondered if he should have refrained from calling Mark that day.
Their wait felt interminable.
Finally, the door to the examination room swung open, and the doctor stepped out.
“He's got acute pneumonia. It could be mild or severe.
