Chapter 2044 Not content with her absent-mindedness, Mark yfully pinched her waist and, in a hoarse voice, asked, “What''s on your mind? Aren''t you ready tomit to me entirely now?” Cecilia understood his frustration.
However, she wasn''t ready to rush into getting married again. It all felt too hasty.
Recalling their past, Cecilia believed that she and Mark should allow their rtionship to develop naturally and give it some time.
Additionally, she was determined to be more cautious this time, especially with Olivia being so young. She didn’t want Edwin to be disappointed again.
To her surprise, Cecilia discovered a dazzling diamond ring in Mark''s bathrobe pocket.
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
She took it out and admired its exquisite, costly appearance.
Sliding it onto her finger, it looked stunning on her slender hand.
Mark gazed at her silently.
Cecilia, wanting to convey her intentions, moved closer, sitting on hisp with her arm around his neck.
She then removed the ring from her ring finger and ced it on her middle finger.
Markprehended her unspoken message, leaving him torn between tion and disappointment.
Unable to resist his surging emotions, he kissed her lips and gently guided her to the bed.
Cecilia, feeling slightly uneasy, softly murmured, “Please turn off the Lights.” Her fear was that Olivia would wake up and witness her parents in an intimate state.
Mark stretched out to switch off the lights with a snap.
It seemed that Olivia''s presence was causing Cecilia to hold back, as she bit Mark''s shoulder without making a sound. Mark felt her difort and whispered in her ear, “Are youfortable?” “Yes,” Cecilia replied, her voice quivering.
Mark, increasingly impatient and unsatisfied, eventually gave in.
He carried Cecilia to the walk-in closet.
They made love there for the better part of the night.
In the morning, Mark got up to prepare breakfast.
Cecilia, awake by then, shivered as he kissed her lips, too shy to open her eyes.
Mark recognized her vulnerability but didn''t expose it.
