Before Cecilia, Mark had a lot of female friends.
Despite that, he didn’t fall for any of them.
The only time he fell in love was when he met Cecilia. But then, he failed to do right by her.
“Thank you,” he said in a low voice.
Suddenly, Flora’s eyes turned red. The air inside had grown too suffocating for her.

Mark had left a deep impression in her life. No matter how happy her marriage was right now, she couldn’t help but feel pain at the fact that she could never have Mark.
When Flora left, Mark did not follow to comfort her.
This was for the best. He knew that entangling himself with her any further would only result into complications that no one would want.
Mark continued socializing with others. From time to time, his eyes would fall on Cecilia. Based on her expression, it seemed that she hadn’t expected him to come.
She looked more withdrawn than usual, which only made her appear even cuter.
Mark didn’t know how long he could bear the fact that she didn’t belong to him.
Seeing her in the arms of someone else, he swallowed hard and forced himself to remain composed.
Without meaning to, he took a glass of wine from the table near him.
Only when Rena came over and took the glass off his hand did Mark come to his senses.
“Uncle Mark,” she rebuked him gently.
After a while, a bitter smile formed on his lips.

Rena’s face softened with worry.
“Uncle Mark, you should be taking good care of yourself,” she reminded.
Back when Mark was still in Rouemn getting his treatment, he wasn’t the only one suffering. The entire Evans family was devastated.
Although Zoey was in poor health, she still insisted on staying there for her son. On top of that, Rena had to split her time between home and abroad.
Thankfully, things were much better now.
The one who knew the most about Mark and Cecilia’s relationship was Rena.
