She had heard that there was a place where her uncle used to share with Cecilia.
However, this was the first time that she had ever come here.
Based on her initial impression, this place seemed really nice!
After cutting the apple into smaller pieces, she gave Mark a few of them.
âYou look like a filial daughter right now,â he said to her with a smile.
When he said that, the first person that came to Renaâs mind was Cecilia.
âIâm only a year younger than Cecilia.
Do you think sheâs old enough to be your child?â
The look on Markâs eyes communicated a myriad of emotions.
After a while, he pretended to act cool and asked, âHowâs she getting along with Thomas? Iâve seen him come to the Fowlerâs house twice.
Theyâre getting along pretty well, arenât they?â
Rena looked away and said nothing.
After all, she had promised to Waylen that neither of them would favor either Mark or Cecilia.
She simply gave a small smile.
While Mark remained silent, Peter blurted, âOh, Rena! Donât keep us guessing! If you donât tell the truth, it will make Mr.
Evans more anxious! Itâs not good for his condition!â
With her smile still intact, Rena tucked Mark in.
Then, with a smile, she said, âUncle Mark, youâre so smart.
I donât think you need me to answer that question.
You know what you should do.
Youâve been so magnanimous that even Waylen is surprised.
â
Peter understood what she had meant by that.
Mark, on the other hand, simply smiled.
Suddenly, Renaâs face turned serious.
She said softly, âThe most important thing right now is for you to take good care of your body.
Otherwise, you might end up hurting Cecilia again.
Do you want that to happen?â
Renaâs tone carried a slight hint of reproach.
She chastised him for going out of his way just for a moment of alone with her last night.
Mark swallowed hard as he looked away and uttered, I wonât do that again.
â
Rena pouted her Lips and didnât say anything more.
Both of them were smart people-they didnât need to be explicit with their words for them to understand each other.
Rena stayed for two hours and cooked lunch for Mark.
