Lina wiped her tears.
Zoey was deeply troubled.
She had many concerns.
Mark had been in a state of desolation ever since that day he encountered Cecilia.
A week later, the doctor informed Zoey, âMr.
Evansâ condition has worsened significantly.
If he remains so despondent, his health will deteriorate.
â
Zoey felt a pang of sadness upon hearing the dire news.
She spent the entire night sitting by Markâs bedside.
Mark had a fever and was disoriented when he saw Zoeyâs visage.
He felt guilty.
In the darkness, Zoey said softly, âI shouldnât have told you this.
But I have to because you have to stay strong.
If something happens to you, who will Edwin and that unborn child rely on? Cecilia is such a delicate soul.
Can you bear to let her raise two children on her own?â
âMom! What are you talking about?â
Mark seemed quite shaken.
Tears brimmed in Zoeyâs eyes.
She held Markâs hand and said, âCecilia is pregnant! You must come to terms with it.
â
In the darkness, Mark lay still for a long time, tears glistening in his eyes.

Cecilia was pregnant!
After a whirlwind of thoughts, Mark finally remembered that day when they didnât use contraceptives during their intimacy.
On that day, she became pregnant.
Trembling, Mark said, âShe.
Zoeyâs tone turned stern.
âMark, youâre a man! And if you truly love her, you must act like a man.
Werenât you strong in the past? Why are you now lying in bed and passively waiting for death to claim you after simply facing some setbacks?
The reason I told you about Ceciliaâs pregnancy is that I canât bear to see you in this state.
Hereâs the deal.
You wonât tell her about your illness.
You must take responsibility as a father.
As for whether Cecilia will accept you or not, thatâs a matter for the future.
You canât see the baby until you fully recover and your condition is stable.
You owe her that much.
Do you understand?â
