Genevieve glanced at Cecilia, who was standing next to her. She pursed her lips as she said, “Someone is still waiting for you. You should go back.”

Cecilia was startled.

Aiden was confused as he spoke, “I thought Tony had feelings for Rosalie, but I never expected him to keep standing up for that divorced woman. If he has feelings for Genevieve, why would he go through a divorce?”

Cecilia held his hand and whispered, “Men’s possessiveness is at play. Mr. Hoffman will regard her as his own and naturally protect her as long as Ms. Lawrence refrains from remarrying.”

“Is that so?” Aiden replied, his eyes flickering.

Cecilia leaned against his shoulder and smiled. She asked, “Is this Ms. Quinn, your fiancée?”

Aiden immediately clarified by saying, “Of course not. We only met once, as arranged by our families.”

Cecilia continued, “I’m just worried that she’ll be upset when she finds out about me and Ethan. I shouldn’t have had Ethan in the first place, but I just wanted to raise him on my own. I would never have a child in my life if it were not for him. I don’t need official recognition. It’s enough for you to come and see me often.”

Aiden frowned slightly and said nothing. He just stroked her hair and started the engine.

Selene’s rashes had subsided, but instead of going home, she went straight to Genevieve’s condominium and stayed overnight.

The next day, the two of them woke up to breakfast that had been prepared by the housekeeper, who was waiting for them to get up.
