Female NovelThey found a table, ordered water, and Peter wisely sat at another table.
Cecilia held her glass and asked softly, “You already knew, didn’t you?”
Mark didn’t deny it.
He replied, “I found out the last time I was in the hospital.”
“So, you came to my apartment because you knew about this child?”
Cecilia asked quietly.
Mark looked at her intently.
She had been pregnant for five months, and while her belly had grown bigger, she hadn’t gained much weight.
It was evident that her life was not going well.
He felt sorry for her but hesitated to offer comfort. His own situation was complex, and his future held uncertainty.
He hoped Cecilia could move on if he didn’t make it.
Sometimes he even thought that her life might have been easier if she hadn’t become pregnant.
However, he ultimately chose to remain silent, since it was he and Cecilia’s child.
In the future, Edwin would have a sibling.
Mark’s silence left Cecilia feeling that she should really let go.
She wiped away her tears and told him, “Mr. Evans, don’t worry. I won’t ask you to take responsibility for this child. I will raise the child on my own.”
After her words, she felt a sense of embarrassment.
She realized that Mark had no intention of accepting responsibility in the first place.
Cecilia was no longer the same as before. She said politely, “Refrain from excessive drinking and smoking in the future. You should prioritize your health at your age.”
In the past, he might not have taken her advice seriously.
But now Mark nodded and said, “You’re right. I must take care of myself.”
He fixed his gaze on her.
Having no further words, Cecilia couldn’t linger any longer. She picked up her bag from the table, offered a quiet apology, and began to leave.
Peter considered stopping her.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
