Mark craned his neck upwards and stared at the night sky.
It was a picturesque scene, with stars dotting the heavens.
But even so, Mark thought that Cecilia was much more beautiful than this.
He returned to the room to get his jacket and car keys. As he was about to leave, Charlie and the others anxiously asked him to stay.
“Play a Little longer!” they pleaded.

“Cecilia is still mad at me,” he explained.
“I can’t leave her alone.”
Charlie burst into laughter and slapped the back of Mark’s shoulder.
“Make sure to take care of her, okay? After all, she did give birth to two children for you.”
Upon hearing this, Mark’s smile faded a little.
When he left, he didn’t even glance at Flora.

Charlie returned to the table and put down the cards, causing a soft clatter.
With a smile, he said, “People’s feelings are wonderful, aren’t they?
You’re not worse than Cecilia. It’s just that you and Mark weren’t meant for each other. Besides, Mark is a complicated man. A woman like Cecilia suits him perfectly.”
At the mention of this, Flora’s eyes turned red.

As expected by Mark, Cecilia had gone to Waylen and Rena’s house.
Since Rena seldom worked now, she had lots of time to take good care of the villa.
At night, the scent of freshly bloomed flowers filled the air in the yard.
However, Cecilia wasn’t in the mood to appreciate them. She even almost broke down in front of the children.
At that time, Alexis didn’t want to play the piano.
She claimed that her head had been hurting from playing too much.
