Female NovelYet, over the years, her love for Mark had never wavered, not even once.
But at this moment, after repeated disappointments, she was starting to lose affection.
She began to harbor the idea of leaving him.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Right now, she was doubting whether his love for her was actually as deep as she had initially thought. Because if that were the case, then how come he would treat her like this? He was such a ruthless man! He knew how much she cared about their relationship.
Seeing the pained look on her face, Mark stepped forward and gently placed a hand on her shoulder, wanting to give a comforting pat.
But then, Cecilia slapped his hand away, shouting, “Don’t touch me!”
Her voice sounded harsh and venomous.
Mark swallowed hard. He tried leaning forward to kiss her lips, but Cecilia turned her face away.
With a tone as cold as ice, she told him, “Mark, is that how you see me? A dispensable woman? A sex partner? You indulge me whenever you’re in a good mood, but you push me away whenever you don’t need me.”
As Mark heard these words come out of Cecilia’s mouth, his countenance darkened.
Gazing at Cecilia’s troubled expression, Mark battled with his rising frustration.
“Do you view me that way? Am I just someone who wants intimacy from you in your eyes?”
“Didn’t you assume that?” Cecilia shouted in her heart.
She felt a wave of discomfort, her throat ached. She looked away in a sulk.
“I’m heading back to my room.”
Cecilia shifted a bit, and Mark’s hand instantly rested on her shoulder.
Mark’s gaze grew intense. He muttered in a hoarse tone, “Rest here.
I’m going to check on Edwin.”
Cecilia felt extremely downhearted.
Edwin arrived with a big smile, but his joy turned to disappointment when he spotted Mark holding another child. Edwin was taken aback and didn’t dare to inquire while she struggled to find the right words to clarify the situation.
Mark was away for around thirty minutes before he returned.
Cecilia was lost in thought, perched on the edge of the bed.
Mark observed her quietly for some time, then positioned himself near the heater without uttering a word.
The room was filled with an eerie silence.
