Cecilia trusted Peter.

As they left, Mark clutched his abdomen, breaking into a cold sweat from the pain.

Concerned, Peter asked, “Why go through the trouble? They're not going anyway, and you can visit them anytime. What matters most now is taking good care of your health.”

They entered the elevator.

Mark immediately leaned against the wall.

In that moment, he yearned for a cigarette to refresh himself, but all his cigarettes had been taken away.

He smiled faintly.

He knew that although Cecilia was around, he no longer had the privilege to be close to her.

Upon Mark's return to the hospital, Zoey reprimanded him.

Cecilia didn't feel any better. She spent a long time in the bathroom before emerging.

Edwin watched her at the door and carefully hugged his mother.

Although Cecilia didn't say anything, Edwin could sense the presence of a baby in her belly.

Cecilia said gently, “I'll drive you to school."

During their car ride to school, Edwin hesitated for a while before he asked gently, "Mom, can I go to the hospital to see Dad? He's sick and appears to be in a lot of pain."

Edwin was such a sweet little boy.

Cecilia was not unreasonable.

She replied, "I'll take you to see him during the weekend."

Edwin leaned against her, smiling.

Truth be told, Edwin longed for his father.

On Saturday, Cecilia visited Rena at the hospital and brought Edwin along. He wanted to see Mark.
