Chapter 1673


    Mark wasn’t in the mood for small talk with Waylen.


    But Waylen seemed quite keen on the subject. He took a casual sip of his ck coffee and jokingly


    prodded, “Mark, you seem worn out. A ssh of water might perk you up. Oh, and I forgot to mention


    that Cecilia values a polished appearance. If you don’t dress well, I fear you won’t win her heart, let


    alone marry her.”


    Mark couldn’t stand Waylen’s way with words.


    Still, Waylen kept sipping his coffee, an amused smile on his lips.


    At that moment, Rena made her way downstairs.


    Due to her pregnancy, she slept in every day, and Waylen was the one mostly looking after the


    children.


    Upon spotting hering down, Waylen promptly rose to lend her a hand.


    He didn’te off as arrogant now.


    Mark observed them, a twinge of jealousy in his gaze.

    Rena settled herself and addressed Mark softly.


    Mark valued her and replied warmly, “Thank you, to you and Waylen.”


    Rena offered a smile. She revealed, “I heard about the uingwsuit. Waylen’s nning to handle


    the case.”


    This caught Mark by surprise.


    Waylen, flicking through the newspaper,mented nonchntly, “I’m doing it for Cecilia.”


    It was then that Mark came to terms with epting Waylen’s assistance.


    After breakfast, Mark joined Waylen into the study to talk over thewsuit.


    In the solitude of the study, it was just the two men, each with a cigarette in hand.


    After their discussion on thewsuit, Waylen’s slender fingers tapped the ashes from his cigarette.


    Narrowing his eyes, he asked, “Cecilia is still upset with you, right? Mark, I can understand her, but I


    can also understand you.”


    He knew Mark had no desire to get entangled with Cathy, and Mark’s concernsy with Paul’s


    daughter.


    It seemed that men often shared amon thread of thought.


    Yet, Waylen shifted the conversation, dering, “I have just one little sister, so you get just one shot. I’ll


    assist you to the best of my ability. Your future, however, lies in your own hands.”


    Waylen had considered the possibility of looking after Cecilia indefinitely as the worst-case scenario.


    Mark also narrowed his eyes as he regarded Waylen. He hadn’t forgotten that Waylen was the first to


    jump into the fray in Czanch on Cecilia’s behalf upon learning about what happened between Cecilia


    and him.


    Over time, Waylen had grown more mature and elegant. S?a?ch Th? Find_N?vel.?et website on
