My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0468

Peter returned home as soon as Eliya had resumed her duties at the Swiss estate. The drive back felt endless; he yearned to see his family, but more than anything, he longed to see Celeste. During his time in Switzerland, she hadn’t reached out to him not a single message or call.

He understood this as her subtle rejection of his offer, but strangely, he wasn’t upset. On the contrary, it pleased him. It showed she wasn’t just any woman; she had a quiet strength and character that intrigued him even more.

As Peter’s car pulled into the mansion’s driveway, the first to greet him was Ethan. The boy had paused his game with Chester and was now sitting on the front steps, waiting eagerly. When the driver opened the car door, Ethan sprang to his feet, his excitement bubbling over.

“Grandpa! You’re back! You’re back!” Ethan shouted, bouncing around Peter.

“Hello, my little one!” Peter said, ruffling the boy’s hair. “How have you been? How was your week?”

“Good, Grandpa! I’m back at school now. My friend John is wearing a funny little boot, but he’s back too.”

Hearing John’s name made Peter pause briefly, reminding him exactly who the boy’s parents were. He smiled and replied, “That’s wonderful. Are you feeling more at ease now?”

“Yes! I have to be a good friend and take care of him. We can’t do too much, but I’m glad he’s back! Oh! And in a week, we have the Fall Festival at school. We’re doing a play! We’ve been practicing a lot.”

“Wow! I leave for one week, and so much changes!” Peter chuckled.

“Oh, I forgot to tell you about the play! Miss Celeste is helping us rehearse, She says it’s going to be amazing. Students from other grades will come to watch, too!” Ethan explained, gesturing wildly with his little arms.

“Really? And how is your teacher?” Peter asked, trying to sound casual.

“Miss Celeste? She’s great!” Ethan said enthusiastically. “She looks prettier every day. This week, she was especially beautiful. She kept smiling to herself–we think she likes someone! John says that’s how his mor looks when she sees his dad.”
