She turned and fixed her gaze back on the stage.
As she observed Cecilia’s serene profile, Thomas reflected silently, “This is a happy ending for everyone.”
After a pause, he added silently, “Cecilia, I wish you happiness.”
Following the award ceremony, Mark departed with Cecilia and their children in tow.
As they reached the Last row, Cecilia caught sight of Thomas.
He had a beautiful wife by his side.
Momentarily taken aback, Cecilia offered a nod to Thomas before continuing to follow Mark out.
Thomas’s wife inquired, “Thomas, do you know her?”
He smiled and replied, “Just a high school classmate.”
His wife nodded without pressing further. Thomas then suggested in a gentle tone, “You mentioned wanting steak, didn’t you? Let’s head out now. Otherwise, we’ll have to wait for quite a while for a table.”
Certainly, his wife would be thrilled.
In the parking lot, two sleek black limousines were parked, their trunks loaded with Luggage.
After the award ceremony, Mark and Cecilia were headed back to Czanch.
Mark had a discussion with Waylen earlier.

With everything taken into consideration, Mark consented to allow Edwin to stay with the Fowlers and finish his study in Duefron.
Edwin would return to Czanch for winter and summer vacations, as well as spending one weekend a month there regularly.
Although Cecilia was hesitant to part with Edwin, she respected his decision.
Edwin accompanied them on their return to Czanch first.
The two black limousines drove off in succession. An hour later, they reached the airport and boarded a private plane bound for Evans Gardon in Czanch.
Once the car came to a halt, Cecilia stepped out.
She walked over to the wisteria tree and took in a deep breath.
“The air here feels more humid than Duefron.”
Mark took a moment to look at Cecilia.
Then he instructed the servants to handle the luggage and hoisted Olivia into his arms. Lately, Olivia had complained of a peculiar ailment.
