What were they to do?


    Korbyn extended his hand and gently caressed the little boy’s face. He had developed a genuine fondness for this child, and thus he turned to Waylen and said, “Waylen, you handle this matter.”


    A tinge of sadness engulfed him.


    He lifted his gaze to his beloved daughter, taking note of her in attire, causing his heart to ache.


    After a prolonged silence, he uttered in a hushed voice, “Just stay here! You can’t rely on your brother and sister-inw indefinitely. They have their own lives. Your mother and I will help take care of the child.”


    He didn’t hold her ountable, yet a sense of mncholy lingered within him.


    With that, he ascended the stairs alone, heading towards his study.


    Juliette wept softly. “You and your brother always make me worry.”


    Cecilia bit her lip and whispered, “Mom, I’m sorry.”


    Rena subtly winked at Waylen.


    Waylen made his way upstairs.


    He pushed open the study door, which was veiled in a cloud of smoke.


    Waylen opened the window, extinguishing Korbyn’s cigarette, and remarked, “You rarely smoke for Alexis’ well-being. Why are you smoking now? Is it because you’re so ted after Cecilia’s return?”


    Korbyn nced up at his son and sneered, “I’m ted? When have you ever seen me happy? Cecilia has always been prone to shocking actions, not only with Harold but also with Mark! She even had a child!”


    Waylen prepared tea for him.


    He poured a cup, cing it in front of Korbyn, and said in a subdued tone, “Last night, I flew to Czanch and confronted Mark.


    We had a fight! He’s unaware of Cecilia having a child!”


    Korbyn let out a sigh. “He doesn’t have any feelings for Cecilia, does he?”


    Waylen took a sip of tea and replied, “Not really! If he had no feelings for her, a cautious man like him wouldn’t have sustained such a rtionship with her for over half a year. I believe Mark thought it was inappropriate for them to be together! Don’t you understand Cecilia’s nature?”


    Hence, Waylen chose not to disclose Edwin’s existence to Mark.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    They were capable of raising a child.


    Hearing this, Korbyn fell silent.


    He remained astonished, unable toprehend why his daughter had be entangled with Mark. To add to theplexity, Mark’s niece was the ex-wife of Cecilia’s brother!


    After a considerable period of contemtion, Korbyn uttered “Don’t make things difficult for Rena. It’s not her fault! Don’t let it affect your rtionship.”
