Chapter: 1166
But before he could say anything, Cecilia’s timid voice interrupted him.
“Mr. Evans, don’t worry. It was just a one-night stand.”
Mr. Evans?
Aone-night stand?
Mark smiled angrily. He tugged at her ear and asked, “Who’s the one who called me ‘Uncle Mark’ the whole night? You little temptress, you’re calling me Mr. Evans now that you’re done with me?” If everyone takes advantage of me like this, I’ll die in a woman’s bed someday.”
His words were harsh, and her eyes turned a little red.
But underneath his gruff facade, Mark also felt bad. He loved her, but he couldn’t be with her for all kinds of reasons.
In the end, Mark pulled Cecilia into a hug and whispered, “Have you gotten the rabbit doll yet? Did you like it?”
Cecilia blushed and nodded shyly. “Yes, | like it a lot.”
Mark didn’t say anything anymore and just held her.
After a long silence, he whispered in her ear, “As long as you like it…”
Then he finally let go of her and began to get dressed. “Get some more rest. I’ll be back at noon.”
Mark was usually good at flirting.
But at this moment, he didn’t know what to say or do. This little girl was different.
He straightened his clothes neatly, sat on the edge of the bed, and pinched her cheek.
“Lhave to get going. Otherwise, I’ll be late for my meeting. Look at my neck. Do you think it looks like I’m scratched by a naughty cat?”
Wrapped in the quilt, Cecilia looked at him, tears welling up in her eyes.
They had slept together.
But he didn’t promise anything, nor did she dare to ask him if they had a future together.
She knew she wasn’t right for him, but…
Feeling aggrieved, she didn’t wait for him to come back.
She deliberately started to avoid him, but she couldn’t fall asleep at night because of him.
