Although it wasnât that big, it was fully equipped and comfortable.
Mark usually worked there while his bodyguards patrolled outside.
Peter would go in and out of the office, depending on his work.
The next day, Waylen came back from Braseovell.
He was worn out and full of guilt.
Outside the ICU, Mark hit Waylen hard.
Even though Waylen didnât fight back, Mark still injured his right handâ¦
Peter teased Mark playfully while treating his wound.
âYouâre not a young school kid anymore.
Perhaps itâs time you learned the art of patience.
â
Markâs suppressed anger flared up again.
âAre you kidding me? I donât think I hit him hard enough.
Next time I see him, Iâll beat him to death.
â
While the two were talking, they were suddenly interrupted by a commotion at the door.
Peter went out to investigate and soon returned with someone.
It was Cecilia.
Having worked for Mark for many years, Peter was sensible, and he went out to give the two some privacy.
Cecilia took a few steps forward, but she didnât dare to get too close to Mark.
Mark clamped a fresh cigarette between his lips and lit it.
After taking a drag, he asked softly, âWhatâre you doing here?â
She raised the ointment in her hand and said shyly, âLet me treat your wound.
â
As a matter of fact, Peter had applied ointment on Markâs wound just now, but Mark didnât mind having his wound treated a second time.

Sitting next to him on the narrow sofa, Cecilia held his hand and carefully dabbed the ointment onto his wound.
While taking another long drag, Mark watched her elegant movementsâ¦
Her face was flawless, and her eyelashes were long and curved.
As though nothing had happened, Mark grunted, âThat boy was nice.
Why arenât you with him?â
Cecilia was stunned for a moment, but she soon understood what he meant.
She took a deep breath and answered, âWell, I donât like him that much.
â
Then she let go of his hand and whispered, âThere.
All fixed up.
â
Cecilia tried to stand up to leave, but the man stopped her.
