NovelEnglishChapter: 2070 After a brief conversation, Mark and Peter moved to an adjoining room.
Returning alone, Mark presented breakfast along with the familiar medicine from the night before. Pulling a face, Cecilia protested, “I haven't even brushed my teeth.” “Drink first, then brush,” he countered.

He set the medicine aside, drawing her close and brushing strands of her long black hair from her face.
As their lips met once more, he murmured, “I've already taken care of brushing your teeth.” Shaking her head, Cecilia thought he was such a charmer.
A flicker of jealousy passed through her as she wondered about the other women in his life.
Without voicing her thoughts, she playfully nipped at his neck.
Before leaving, Mark checked on the kids and issued some instructions to the helps.

Flopping onto the pillow, she snapped a selfie and sent it his way, captioning it, “Missing you already.” Elsewhere, Mark had just settled into his car when his phone buzzed into life with a message.
Gazing at Cecilia's message, a contented smile formed on his Lips before he pocketed the device.
Trying to catch a glimpse, Peter saw nothing and quipped, “Must be from Cecilia, right?” Mark leaned back, his demeanor unruffled.
Raising an eyebrow, Peter probed, “What happened after your last fight? How did you make up?” Mark's eyes met Peter's as he answered firmly, “That's between Cecilia and me.” Peter chuckled, thinking Mark had a penchant for public displays of affection.
Rising around 9:30, Cecilia prepared for her day and headed to the set.
As soon as she stepped on, her assistant leaned in, murmuring, “Elaine's acting high and mighty today. She's slated for several scenes, some with you. Yet, out of the blue, she's taken two days off. It’s not even that time of the month for her. Who does she think she is, just taking time off without prior notice?”
