Chapter 2043 Olivia opened her eyes, taking in her father and then her brother.


    After a moment, she handed the fairy tale book to her father and nestled back into his arms.


    Mark smiled, kissed Olivia, and felt a rush of tenderness.


    He imagined that Cecilia might have been just Like this when she was a child. Waylen probably couldn''t help but adore his sister, much like Edwin and Olivia.


    With school in the morning, Edwin couldn''t actually care for Olivia.


    Mark dimmed the lights and carried Olivia to his room, where she slept soundly, taking up a significant portion of therge bed.


    After taking a shower, Mark returned to the bedroom.


    Cecilia was Leaning against the headboard, quietly engrossed in her book.


    Mark gently dried his hair. But seeing no response from her, he lowered himself and took the book from her hands.


    She looked up at him, sensing that he had something to discuss.


    Mark looked at Olivia and asked Cecilia in a hushed tone, “Shall we talk in the study?” Cecilia took the book back from him and absently traced the book''s edge with her fingers before she asked quietly, “What do you want to discuss?” Sitting beside her, Mark gently gathered her hair behind her ears.


    They were so close that Cecilia found it difficult to resist his proximity.


    Mark said softly, “A few days ago, my mother asked me when we were nning to have our wedding ceremony. Cecilia, I''d like to hear your thoughts.” In fact, they didn''t necessarily need a grand wedding.


    Mark wanted to start by getting their marriage registered and then hold a small, intimate ceremony.


    He felt they didn’t need arge audience. He wanted the wedding to be simple yet meaningful surrounded by only family and close friends.

    However, this was his perspective. He wanted to hear Cecilia''s opinion.


    Cecilia was no longer the naive girl she once was.


    When he broached the subject, she understood what he meant-he wanted to remarry her.


    Cecilia couldn''t help but think about something. She had met ine earlier, and ine had mentioned that Cecilia and Mark weren''t a real legal couple now, which led her to pursue Mark.


    If Cecilia were to agree to marry Mark solely due to ine''sments, it would make her seem petty.


    Cecilia was lost in thought.
