Over the past few years, Mark had largely ignored her, only displaying a reaction when Cecilia was mentioned.
Mark gestured for Peter to leave the room first. After they were alone, he took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a drag. His gaze was deep.
“Cathy, I forgave you largely because Cecilia is fine. And yes, partly because of our past. I thought you would understand that after facing the music.”
“Mark, are you this heartless?” Cathy retorted, her voice deep with mixed feelings.

However, Cathy didn’t respond at all and simply bypassed him.
As Peter stood there, somewhat puzzled, Mark emerged from his office.
Dealing with Cathy could be quite vexing.
Although Mark didn’t say anything, Peter could guess the nature of their conversation. Attempting to console Mark, Peter offered a faint smile.
