Chapter: 948
Moreover, Waylen had already fought with Mark.

Korbyn glanced at his wife, unsure of what to say, seeking her guidance.

Juliette didn't want to escalate things with Mark. She assisted him back up and said politely, "After all, you and Cecilia have Edwin now. As for the future, you can discuss it between yourselves."

Zoey felt even more ashamed.

Waylen turned to his sister and asked, "Cecilia, what do you think?"

Cecilia gazed at Mark with composure.

He returned her gaze.

She knew in her heart that with Edwin in the picture, he couldn't claim they were incompatible anymore... He seemed willing to marry her with the families’ efforts combined.

But she didn't want that.

Why would she agree to such an arrangement?

Cecilia's lips moved slightly. Mark understood what she wanted to say, so he preemptively interjected, “Let's talk privately."

Cecilia glanced at her brother.

Waylen took a sip of tea and smirked, "Go ahead, talk with him.

He won't do anything to harm you; after all, he's too old for that."

Waylen was indeed sharp-tongued.

Cecilia nodded in agreement.

Indeed, there were things they couldn't discuss in front of their elders...

The two of them retreated to a small parlor for their conversation.

Standing by the window, Cecilia turned her back to Mark and whispered in a hushed voice, “I got pregnant after the last time we were together. I only found out after we broke up."

Mark's eyes fixated on her back.

He shook his head gently and said, “You're not being truthful Cecilia. You knew about the pregnancy before we broke up, didn't you?"

Cecilia took a shallow breath.
