Once Cecilia returned to the ward after seeing Elissa off, the room fell into a momentary silence.
Finally, Cecilia remarked with a sigh, “Miss Palmer comes from a respectable family, but her parents are kind of
old-school.
Now that she’s expecting Raphael’s child, it’s unlikely she’ll call off the wedding.

Cecilia, sensing the need for privacy, discreetly excused herself from the room.

Moreover, with a child in the picture, Olivia doubted they would separate hastily.
As she spoke, her calm demeanor contrasted with her current vulnerability, enhancing her allure in Dylan's eyes.
He felt a strong urge to embrace her but restrained himself, mindful of their strained relationship.
After a pause, Dylan ventured further, his voice soft.

His response lingered in silence, before he managed a faint smile.
What more could he possibly want now?
Being able to share this simple moment with her already felt Like enough for now.
