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.
Alexis, who received one of the cupcakes, beckoned to Edwin, who was standing far away from them.
“Edwin, your great uncle is here!” she told him.
Edwin was squatting in the doorway of the villa with his hands on his cheeks. Olivia was right by his side.
Edwin had prepared a feeding bottle in advance and put it inside Olivia’s pocket. It was so cute!
Mark looked at both of his children, especially that silly boy of his with tender eyes. The mere sight of them made his eyes water.
Before he came back, Mark didn’t feel a shred of regret about all this.
At the time, he felt this arrangement was best for Cecilia and the children. This way, they would never have to face his death nor see him withered away as he was about to reach the end of his life.
But now he realized that Edwin had actually been waiting for him the whole time.
Edwin never gave up.
Seeing the children with his own eyes, Mark felt a pang of regret gnaw at his heart. It was the kind of regret that was hard to describe.
Mark slowly walked over to his son as Alexis grabbed Marcus’ hand and giggled. After a while, Alexis and Marcus left.
Mark reached out his hand and patted Edwin’s head.
Feeling awkward, Edwin didn’t know how to react to his father’s presence.
Meanwhile, Olivia slowly crawled her way up to Mark’s arms and called him “daddy”. Mark thought she looked cute in her little dress. The pocket with the feeding bottle in it was also a nice touch.
Mark secured Olivia in his arms while holding Edwin’s hand.
After a while, Alexis ran back to him and said, “Aunt Cecilia has gone out on a date! When Grandpa comes back, I’ll tell him that Great-uncle Mark has taken Edwin and Olivia out.”
With a smile, Mark patted Alexis’ head.
Indeed, this kid was a lot like Waylen.
Leonel then grabbed Alexis’ wrist and dragged her away.
