The doctor emerged, advising them to prepare themselves mentally and also be mindful of Renaâs emotions.
Tears finally escaped Markâs eyes.
It was the first time Cecilia witnessed Mark shedding tears.
In her memory, he was always resolute, unfazed by anything.

Morning came.
Mark entered the ward, while Juliette went to the reception desk.
Inside, Cecilia perched by Renaâs bedside, seemingly dozing off.
Gently, Mark patted Ceciliaâs shoulder.
Instantly, Cecilia stirred awake.
Her reddened eyes met his, and she called out to him in a daze, âUncle Mark.

His voice sounded hoarse, his words laden with ambiguity.

In this tense situation, her fleeting emotions paled in comparison.

reunite as before, but she wanted Alexis to thrive.
The little one was so young and adorable.

He overheard the little girl talking to herselfâ¦
Peter offered gentle advice, âYou should eat something.

Mark turned around and replied softly, âBring her some breakfast.

Although Mark was very busy, he chose to remain in Duefron to accompany Rena.
Peter even managed to secure him a small office through some connections.
