Cecilia received the gift and smiled.
“Thank you.”
“can I go to the bedroom to see Olivia?” Thomas asked, his eyes softening as he looked at her.

The two of them went to the second floor and entered Cecilia’s bedroom. When they got in, Olivia was still asleep.
Thomas peeked at Olivia’s sleeping face and found her to be so cute!
What a lovely, pretty girl!
She looked a lot like her dad.
Thomas reached out his hand and brushed Olivia’s soft curly brown hair with his finger.
“There was actually something I wanted to tell you last night,” he said, his eyes still fixed on Olivia.
Inside his pocket was a ring.
He wanted to propose to Cecilia last night, but she left before he could even pop the question.
Cecilia looked at him in surprise, but then when she realized what he was likely to say, she pursed her lips and said nothing. She just looked at him, unsure how to proceed.
“Let’s find a time to talk,” Thomas said to her, his gentle nature still intact.
Cecilia held Olivia’s hand before calling the nanny in and asking her to take care of Olivia.

Cecilia wanted to make things clear as early as now.
So, the two of them went downstairs, with neither speaking a word to each other. When they passed by the hall, they saw Edwin with his schoolbag in hand and was about to go to school. The driver took Edwin’s hand and was leading him to the car.
When Edwin saw Thomas, he nodded slightly.
Thomas, on the other hand, thought that Edwin looked a lot like Mark.
Once Edwin had left for school, Cecilia accompanied Thomas to the parking pad. The soft morning light fell on them, bathing them in a warm, yellow glow.
Both of them looked dazzling under the light.
