Chapter 1239: Chapter 1239

She just didn’t say it.

At half past eight, the sound of a car parking came from outside.

A moment later, two people strode in.

It was Mark and Peter.

As soon as they stepped foot inside the house, Mark’s gaze landed on Cecilia.

Peter smiled.

“We heard what happened today, and Mr.

Evans is very angry.

We came over as soon as we could to see if there’s anything we can do to help.

”

Cecilia’s lips trembled imperceptibly, but she stayed silent.

In the end, it was Waylen who spoke up first.

“I invited him here, since I might need his help with something.

”

Mark nodded to acknowledge his words, his eyes never leaving Cecilia’s face.

He took off his coat and squatted in front of Edwin.

“Hey, buddy.

Why won’t you say hi to your dad?”

Edwin was a little timid at first.

After a long time, he dared to throw himself into Mark’s arms and whisper, “Mom said I should call you ‘Great-uncle Mark’ outside our home.

”

Hearing this, Mark glanced up at Cecilia with an unreadable look in his eyes.

Then Mark faced his son again and said gently, “We’re at home.

Smiling, Edwin called Mark “Dad”.

Mark took out a few candies from his pocket and distributed them to the children.

The candies were from Rouemn, which used to be Cecilia’s favorite.

Over time, he developed a habit of taking a few with him wherever he went.

The men went upstairs to talk in the study.

Soon, a servant brought them some freshly-brewed tea.

Mark took a sip and frowned.

“What’s going on? Why is someone suddenly trying to target Rena?”

Waylen faced his Laptop screen towards Mark and played the video.

It was surveillance footage from the clinic.

Waylen said grimly, “This is Aline Hanson.

She was classmates with Rena back in college.

Aline had an affair with Vera’s husband, and then she became the mistress of a coal magnate.

She’s the one who bought off that nurse.

”

Hearing this, Mark knew what was going on.

He smiled and said, “You came to me because you can’t do anything to this coal magnate, am I right?”
