Cecilia was actually meeting Dylan.
This was their first meeting alone, without anyone else.
It was ironic that they met under such circumstances.
Arriving at the coffee shop, she spotted Dylan was already waiting there.
When he noticed Cecilia approaching him, he stood up immediately. "Hello, Madam Lawson." Cecilia nodded in return. "Please, have a seat." Dylan sat down across from Cecilia.
He gestured to the waiter to take their order.
"Madam, is there anything you would like to drink?" Dylan asked Cecilia.
"I am okay with anything," Cecilia answered casually.
"Well then, please give us two cups of cappuccino." Dylan added, "It's Selina's favourite drink." Cecilia's ears perked up at him mentioning Selina's name.
Nobody spoke anything until the coffee was served.
Dylan broke the silence first. "Madam Lawson, is there anything that I can help you with?" When he and Selina had been in a relationship, Cecilia had never taken the initiative to meet him privately. Cecilia took a sip of the coffee.
The aroma of milk masked the bitterness of coffee with a hint of sweetness. This definitely suited Selina's taste.

My only wish is that you would live happily together, and you could get married at any time." Cecilia hoped that with her urging, Dylan would take the initiative to pursue Selina again If he was successful, Selina would break up with Matthew before they got married.
Dylan stared at her in astonishment, then his face clouded over with bitterness.
What, did she not know that they had broken up long ago? Was this the reason she'd wanted to meet up privately? "Madam Lawson, thank you so much for your concern. Regrettably, I have already broken up with Selina," Dylan murmured.
Cecilia brushed him off. "You have broken up and reconciled many times in the past, this tis no different." She emphasized, "Your relationship with Selina had always been rocky since the beginning." Dylan laughed self-deprecatingly. "If I knew we would be talking about Selina today, I shouldn't have ordered a cappuccino. Instead I should have ordered a black coffee for myself." Cecilia looked at Dylan, perplexed.
Dylan's eyes lost its sparkle. "Madam Lawson, our relationship is unrepairable. Regardless of what has happened in the past, our breakup is for real this time. It's absolutely impossible for us to get back together now." Cecilia could not believe it. "Selina has said the sthing toeach tyou broke up, and yet you managed to get back together every time." The expression on Dylan's face darkened. "This tit is different. It is impossible because Selina loves someone else now." Cecilia's eyes narrowed.
"Maybe she's just doing it to provoke you." Dylan shook his head and smiled helplessly. "I've been with Selina for so many years. How could I not know what she was thinking? Her heart completely belongs to another person now, she no longer hasin her heart." Cecilia's thoughts wavered.
At first she'd refused to believe Selina's break up was final, not when Selina, Matthew, or even Natalie told her about it.
However, Dylan too...
"Are you sure?" "I'm utterly sure." "Is there not even the slightest possibility for Selina and you to get back together?" "No, because she does not loveanymore." Cecilia's eyes flickered slightly. "Have you never thought about winning her heart back? Don't you feel jealous seeing Selina with someone else?" She had to test Dylan's stance.
He averted his gaze.
An uncomfortable silence ensued.
Dylan promptly took out an exquisite looking box from his suit pocket.
He handed the box to Cecilia.
Cecilia accepted the box with a puzzled expression.
She opened the box and saw a shimmering pendant inside.
Cecilia looked up at Dylan in surprise.
Dylan's expression was complex. "Considering my position, it is inappropriate to give Selina such a gift, but Kcan't bear to throw it away. I prepared it long ago, waiting for the right moment to surprise her. Now that things have changed, please pass it to her with my blessings." He paused for a moment. "It doesn't mean anything, I just wish her joy and happiness in the future." Cecilia pursed her lips.
She accepted the box and finished off the coffee.
Cecilia stood up and said, "Don't worry, I will pass your gift to Selina. To be honest, I was trying to get you and Selina back together. I was concerned that her relationship with Matthew was just a rebound after her breakup, as she tends to be immature. However after hearing your side of the story, I might have to change my mind about her and Matthew." | Dylan stood up as well. His voice was low and hoarse. "Madam Lawson, you should give your blessings to the couple." Cecilia nodded, "Thank you, Dylan.
You know, I've always wondered what Selina.saw in you that she stubbornly stood by your side for SO long. Lam ashamed to say that was blinded to your positive ad. T.
qualities, I couldn't understand why she liked you so much." With that said, Cecilia looked at him with approval. "But now I see that you are a good person, Dylan. One day, happiness will find you." Dylan kept quiet.
"Well, I'll take my leave then. Thank you for meeting with me." "Goodbye, Madam Lawson." As she turned around to leave, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Her gaze fell on Dylan's face. "Do you know who Selina is with now?" Pain flashed across his face, but it disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
He muttered. "I know who it is. He is someone worth entrusting her happiness to." This was the sole reason why he had been willing to let Selina go.
Although it was a little embarrassing.
His ex-girlfriend was getting married to his uncle.

He knew Selina would be happier with Matthew than with him, and that e Matthew was a good man.
The tpassed quickly as Selina and Natalie were having fun chatting. Their conversation had lasted for n almost three hours. Natalie felt a little sleepy.
After all, she was still in confinement, and naturally got tired easily.

Selina was about to call Cecilia when she walked in through the front door.
Hastily, Cecilia dragged Selina to the living room.
"Here, this is for you." Cecilia handed Selina a box.
Selina opened the box and saw a glittering pendant inside, which seemed exorbitant.
"Mom, did you geta wedding gift?" Selina joked.
"No, I didn't buy it." "Then, who bought it?" Cecilia stared straight into Selina's eyes. "Dylan wantedto give it to you." Selina was dumbfounded.
