Female NovelChapter 2006 She was seated on a chair adjacent to the bed, her head lowered, and her glossy black hair casually tied back. From his vantage point, he noted her perfectly sculpted nose.
Her skin was impeccable.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Mark was momentarily mesmerized by her elegance. After a brief pause, he said, “Olivia and that woman are worlds apart. It's unfair to even make a comparison. I'd rather not hear such remarks.” Lifting Olivia, he settled her onto his lap.
He playfully tweaked her cheek.
Olivia was the center of attention for many; her brother, in particular, was exceptionally fond of her.
Born into the esteemed Evans lineage, Olivia was a princess in the eyes of both the Fowlers and the Evans.
Cecilia acknowledged this with a nod, but Mark, ever persistent, teased, “Feeling a twinge of jealousy, are we?” “Why should I feel any envy towards her?” Cecilia shot back.
“If she’s to your liking, keep her close. Perhaps she'll brighten your days.” Mark chuckled at her response.
Irritated, Cecilia shut her script.
“I'm taking Edwin and Olivia home for dinner.” “We have a meal prepared here,” Mark noted.
“Waylen's been trying his hand at new recipes,” Cecilia replied.
“They're delightful. I promised I'd taste his latest creations tonight” Mark raised an eyebrow, puzzled.
Today was just an ordinary Tuesday.
Why was Waylen at home cooking instead of at his office? As Cecilia gathered Edwin's belongings, she said, “Waylen's taken a week off. He coordinated with Jazlyn so he could spend more time with the children.” Her statement had a clear undercurrent of annoyance.
With that, she ushered the children out.
Once they were gone, Mark collapsed onto his bed, deep in thought.
He began to think that perhaps Waylen posed the most significant challenge to his romantic aspirations.
