"Your sister-in-law asked me to come here. She's worried about you."

At this point, it took everything within Cecilia to stop herself from crying.

Waylen studied her face and remarked, “I don't remember having a big whining baby for my sister.

"Oh, you're no better than me," Cecilia retorted.

Waylen scowled and sneered at her.

Cecilia giggled before chickening out of their banter. After a while, she gently leaned her head against her brother's broad shoulder and muttered, “Waylen, I can't keep fooling myself. I want to move on, but I also can't let go of the past."

Waylen mussed her hair, comforting her without needing to say anything.

These past few days, he had been watching Thomas and Cecilia from afar. From that alone, he could already tell that the two of them weren't a good match.

Instead of torturing each other in the future, it would be better for them to break up now.

Thomas might be rational, but he didn't love Cecilia enough.

After the two of them broke up, Cecilia was slightly saddened by it.

After all, they did get along with each other, even just for a short while. Now that they were split up, their respective families must have been given instructions. News spread quickly in the upper class, and by noon, it had already reached Mark.

This was beyond Mark's expectation.

Thomas and Cecilia's breakup happened too fast!

Peter closed the door and said in hushed tones, "It was Thomas who took the initiative."

At the mention of this, Mark remembered how he had met Thomas by chance this morning.

Mark was good at reading people's mind. He guessed that that was the reason why they broke up. Although Mark wanted this to happen, the end result didn't make him happy.

The reason for Cecilia's failed relationship all led back to him.

If it weren't for their failed marriage, if she hadn't given birth to two children with him, no sane man would ever refuse her, and no one would dare to criticize her.

At this moment, Mark wanted to smoke a cigarette so badly to ease himself.
