Although Cecilia despised Cathy, she couldnât deny Cathyâs capability.
The thought of this fact brought a sense of insecurity and jealousy in her.
By now, Mark had already calmed down.
When he saw the look on Ceciliaâs face, he could tell she was still thinking about it.
So, he planted a consoling ki*s on her forehead and said, âI want a wife, not a partner.
Why would I need a capable woman?â
Hearing this, Cecilia felt much better.
She grazed his skin with her soft fingertips and drew circles on his chest.
âRena is capable.
But Waylen and Rena have a good relationship,â she said coquettishly.
Mark smiled.
Indeed, Rena was capable, much like most members of the Evans family.
Her character didnât resemble her motherâs.
Renaâs mother was Reina, who was Markâs younger sister.
Cecilia was like Reina.
Both of them had a simple yet lovely air about them.
The more Mark looked at Cecilia, the more tender his eyes grew.
He placed his hand on the back of her head and pulled her closer to him, almost burying her face to his chest.
âThey are who they are, and we are who we are,â he told her.

This was one of the things that Mark liked about Cecilia the most.
If he wanted an able woman to be his wife, then he couldâve married someone while he was younger.
At last, Cecilia felt reassured thanks to Markâs words.
After wiping his nose with the back of her hand, she bit his shoulder a few times before whispering, âMy brother said theyâll be going back to Duefron in five days.
He also said he wanted to bring me back with them.
â
As soon as Mark heard that, his eyes shot wide open.
For a second, he thought he had misheard.
Cecilia would leave in five days?
Mark wanted her to remain by his side, but she sounded like she really wanted to go.
âI also have some work to take care of after the holiday,â she added.
