Korbyn, holding Edwin in his arms, approached.
The little boyâs face glistened with perspiration, engrossed in his playful antics.
Korbyn retrieved a towel from a servantâs hand and gently wiped the sweat from Edwinâs forehead, cherishing the child in his embrace.
Initially, Zoey paid little mind to the scene, preoccupied with how to approach Korbyn in conversation.
However, upon casting a glanceâ¦
No.
Edwinâs cherubic countenance and his hair color bore a striking resemblance to Renaâs.
Upon closer inspection, he bore a striking resemblance of about 70% to Mark, particularly the subtle expressions etched between his eyebrows.
Zoeyâs composure shattered in an instantâ¦
Mark mirrored her reaction.
His gaze fell upon the child and a chill surged through his veins, rendering him almost incapable of believing his own eyes.
This was the offspring of the Evans lineage.

At that very moment, Ceciliaâs car arrived.
She stumbled towards them and scooped up Edwin in her arms.

Everything⦠became painfully clear.
Zoey, finally snapping out of it, opened her mouth and uttered a single sentence, âIs this Mark and Ceciliaâs child?â
Zoey had arrived to offer an apology, recognizing that her son had toyed with that young girl.
But now, inexplicably, Zoey found herself a grandmother, again.
Zoey, nearing 70 years of age, had resigned herself to the notion of never experiencing the joys of grandmotherhood.
Yet suddenly, Alexis came into her life.
And now, another sweet, tender, and remarkably handsome grandson appeared before her eyesâ¦
