Chapter 0549

[Valeria, Present Day]

“Laura, let’s try something. I’ll knock on Maximus’s door maybe hearing a different voice will make him open it.”

“Alright…”

Serenity knocked on Maximus’s door, but there was no response. Thinking for a moment, she said:

“Laura, Maximus’s room is on the first floor. His room has windows, right?”

“Yes!”

“Exactly! We can get in that way. Follow me…”

The two young women reached the window, but they’d have to climb over a small wall to get there. Given Laura’s current condition, that would be too risky. Serenity sent Laura back into the mansion, planning to climb in and unlock the door from the inside.

After scaling the wall, Serenity jumped into the room. Inside, she found a meticulously clean and well–decorated space. Maximus was sprawled out on the bed, an empty bottle of alcohol on the floor. He was clearly drunk and had passed out.

Serenity went to open the door for Laura. When Laura entered and saw him in such a pitiful state, her heart broke.

“You see? He’s just drunk, but he’s fine! There’s nothing to worry about.”

The two girls adjusted him on the bed, covered him with a blanket, and left. It was already nighttime, and Laura insisted Serenity stay over rather than drive. They decided to sleep in the same room. As Serenity watched her sister, she couldn’t believe that this girl, with such a childlike face, would soon be a mother.

“Hey, Serenity!” A soft voice broke Serenity’s thoughts.

“Hey!” she said, turning to look at her sister.

“Did you sleep well?”

“Yeah, and you?”

“Good… I still can’t believe it!”
