Chapter 0065

Maximus got up and took the first flight to Florentia. His wife had invited him to talk, and he wouldn’t let that opportunity slip by. Upon arrival, he drove as quickly as possible to Lunavalle. That particular day, the fields looked more radiant than ever. He was carrying a mix of emotions he couldn’t quite describe, but just hearing his wife’s voice and knowing he would see her today put him in a good mood.

Meanwhile, something stirred Mary awake. She wasn’t sure if it had been a dream or one of her usual nightmares, but she remembered talking to her husband. A pang of unease hit her stomach when she saw her phone on the bed. She quickly checked it, and sure enough, there was a missed call from Maximus. The realization banished any remaining sleep. She grabbed her robe and headed out to stroll through the mansion’s gardens. The morning air was cool, with a light breeze brushing against her skin.

Leopold, noticing a car approaching the mansion, went out to greet the visitor, assuming it was Mr. Peter -but it wasn’t.

“Mr. Palmer, we weren’t expecting you,” Leopold said visibly surprised.

It was still early, and Catherine hadn’t left her room yet. Leopold invited him in and said, “Mr. Maximus, give me a moment, and I’ll wake Mrs. Catherine.”

“Leopold, I’m not here to see my grandmother. I want to see my wife.”

“Oh, I see! Then allow me to fetch her,”

“Just show me her room, and I’ll go myself.

Leopold, slightly startled and conflicted, reluctantly agreed. There was no denying him that right.

When they reached her room, he noticed that Catherine had lodged Mary in what used to be her old guestroom from years ago.
