Chapter 2226 Cecilia, observing her husband, ventured cautiously, “Mark, are you and Edwin keeping something from me? Mark tenderly caressed her head, offering a gentle reassurance.

“Nothing of the sort; don’t overthink it." The next day, at Duefron’s most high-end restaurant, Thomas had arranged a private room for a meeting with Cecilia.

Their past relationship, though not culminating in marriage, had ended on good terms.

Angela's Library Now, they were here to discuss the affairs of their children.

His extra attentiveness left Cecilia slightly uneasy. She said softly, “Thomas, | understand why you've asked to meet today, but Edwin isn't a child. Some decisions aren't ours to make. If we force our choice on him and they're unhappy, won't that breed resentment?” Thomas was a man of refinement.

He took a moment to consider his words before speaking.

“Vanessa really likes Edwin, but it seems he has someone else in his heart, Cecilia. But you should know the combined influence of the Evans, Fowler, and Smith families would be significant.” Slightly flustered, Cecilia responded, “I'm not really into the business side of things. Mark rarely discusses such matters with me.” Thomas was taken aback, then smiled.

Lightening the mood, he said, “Perhaps | was being too materialistic.” His thoughts then drifted to Laura. After Vanessa had mentioned her, his brother Weldon had tasked him with addressing the situation. He remembered Laura was quiet and reserved, much like Cecilia, and strikingly beautiful.

Recalling his own youthful feelings for Cecilia, Thomas found himself struggling to reveal such news to her.

The conversation eventually veered away from the marriage topic, ending somewhat ambiguously.

Returning home, Cecilia told Mark her day.

She had Little of substance to share about the conversation she had with Thomas, instead mentioning the pleasantness of the restaurant and the remarkable dishes of the new chef.

Mark, somewhat exasperated, remarked, “I sent you to talk important business, not to reminisce about old times with Mr. Smith.” With a teasing tone, Cecilia replied, “We did have our dates back in the day, and you were quite supportive, even blessing me as a well-wisher. Has your tolerance waned with age?” Mark defended himself, “Are you calling me narrow-minded?”
