By nine o’clock in the evening, the private jet touched down.
An hour and a half later, Mark was back at the villa.
In the hallway, there was just a single wall lamp still lit.
Surrounded by the gentle, golden light, he sensed the warmth of home.
A sweet home with Cecilia and Edwin.
Mark removed his coat and gazed around the villa adorned with decorations from a while ago, and his heart warmed with nostalgia.
He made his way upstairs and headed straight to the child’s bedroom.
Edwin had dozed off. While sleeping, he remained perfectly still, lying on his side with his small body snugly wrapped under the quilt.
Only half of his soft face was visible. His brown hair had a shiny, vibrant color.
Mark perched on the bed’s edge, loosened his shirt and leaned down to plant a kiss.
Edwin remained asleep, but he murmured something in his dream.
Mark watched over him tenderly for some time.

Perched on the couch in her white robe, Cecilia was absorbed in a script.

He had a talent for handling relationships with women.
Revealing vulnerability would often evoke women’s sympathy, and Cecilia, at the very least, felt a bit concerned.
