Female NovelChapter 2084 Upon reaching the hospital, they were met with an unexpected visitor Waylen. Entering Mark's room, Cecilia found him engrossed in a seemingly intense conversation with Waylen.
The latter, sensing her presence, turned, catching Cecilia off-guard.
Momentarily taken aback, Cecilia only found her voice when Waylen teased with a light smirk.
“Did I catch you by surprise?” Whispering his name, “Waylen,” Cecilia approached and inquired gently, “What brings you here?” Cecilia shared a bond of deep affection with Waylen, often seeking his guidance and assurance.
Observing their rapport, Mark couldn't suppress a pang of jealousy.
To mask his feelings, he mentally plotted to spend more time with his niece in hopes of making Waylen feel the same sting of envy.
Adjusting his shirt, Waylen replied, “I was on business nearby and thought I'd stop by.” Glancing at Olivia and Edwin, he added, “I'll take the kids with me for a while.” Though Cecilia was hesitant to part with her children, she conceded, considering Mark's recovery.
Furthermore, the hospital was no place for young Olivia.
Cecilia saw them off. After ensuring the kids were settled, Waylen paused to tuck a stray strand of Cecilia's hair behind her ear.
“Rena’s been concerned about you. She sent me to check in,” he said.
“I spoke with Mark, and he seems well. He has a fierce independence about him. Rena just tends to worry unnecessarily.” Embracing him in gratitude, Cecilia felt a wave of warmth.
Hesitating briefly, Waylen reassured her, “Remember, Cecilia, no matter the circumstances, even when everything seems bleak, you still have your brother by your side.” As he climbed into his car and drove away, Cecilia watched him go, a cascade of thoughts flooding her mind.
Without Mark, she imagined a life alongside her brother and sister-in-law, a life that seemed undeniably appealing.
Returning to the ward, she found Mark engrossed in a magazine while Peter was immersed in phone calls, his expressions shifting more rapidly than the pages Mark was turning.
Upon noticing Cecilia, Peter excused himself.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Mark beckoned her over.
Nestling beside him, she heard his query, “Did you meet Elaine?” Cecilia nodded.
