Chapter 1649
When they reached home, Zoey was already waiting for them.
As soon as Zoey saw the two, she immediately sensed the tension between them. Being a sensible woman, she chose to remain quiet.
After putting Cecilia’s luggage down, Mark grabbed a stick of cigarette and lit it up.
He blew a thick cloud of smoke into the sky before turning to Zoey.
“Mom, take good care of them. I have to go back to the launching scene.”
He still had problems there that he needed to sort out.
Zoey already knew what had happened thanks to Peter, but she chose not to say anything. Instead, she agreed and told him to resolve those problems quickly.
Before he could leave, Zoey told him, “Once you’re done with things over there, start focusing on your family.”
Her words compelled Mark to contemplate about his situation.
After letting out a heavy sigh, he took a step forward and proceeded into the darkness.
Meanwhile, although Cecilia was in a bad mood, she forced herself to cheer up. She took Edwin with her to have dinner.
Zoey wanted to take Edwin to the courtyard for some fun, but Cecilia refused.
“He is in a foul mood. Let me take care of him. I’ll lull him to sleep.” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Zoey nodded and decided to leave them alone.
As an observant woman, Zoey noticed that Cecilia had actually slept in the guest room.
Although Zoey knew Cecilia and Mark had a fight, the fact that Cecilia chose to sleep in the guest room still made her worried.
Zoey didn’t go to bed until Mark returned at two o’clock in the morning.
Peter was with Mark. After parking the car, the two of them came in.
The servant brought them some food, and after finishing a bowl, Peter left.
Zoey was holding a cross in her hand as she watched Mark smoke in front of her. His face was crumpled into a frown as though he was harboring a deep-seated grudge toward someone.
By this point, Zoey could no longer hold back her frustration.
“You’re already a grown-up, and yet, you still can’t tell what’s right from wrong!” she scolded him. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
“Do you remember how much you have sacrificed to be where you are now? Yes, Paul died, but were you the one who killed him? If it weren’t for Cathy, Paul and his wife wouldn’t have died. And after that, she dared to come to you with Paul’s child and beg for mercy. What a shameless woman!
Cecilia had suffered a lot because of you throughout the years. Don’t you think she deserves to stand by your side at that moment? No woman on earth could tolerate what Cecilia had seen today! If you couldn’t make things right and treat her well, you might as well not come back. I don’t want to see your face ever again!”
