Chapter 0691

While Peter’s plans were slowly unraveling in Valentia, in the Maldives, Serenity and Alden, along with their small family, were living a peaceful life. Time flew by, and Laura’s pregnancy was just a month away from completion.

Serenity watched her sister with concern, her thoughts consumed by the baby’s impending arrival. For some strange reason, Laura hadn’t wanted to know the baby’s gender. She wanted it to be a surprise, a decision that drove Alden to the edge of his nerves.

Alden liked having everything under control, and Laura loved disrupting that control. He had repeatedly asked her to find out the baby’s gender, but she flatly refused.

“It’s going to be a surprise. We’ll know when the baby is born,” Laura would always reply.

Serenity and Alden’s nightly routine remained the same. Once everyone went to bed, they’d slip out and return before dawn.

That night, Serenity lay halfway across Alden’s chest, lost in a thought that wouldn’t leave her alone.

“Alden…”

“What is it, my love?” Alden asked as he played with her hair.

She lifted her face to look into those eyes she loved so much and said:

“I’m worried.”

“About what?”

“What’s going to happen when we have to go back to Valentia?”

Alden understood her fear. He had felt it himself before. He wrapped his arm tighter around her, pulling her closer, and said:

“Do you love me?”

“You know I do!”

“Well, I love you too. And that’s all that matters to me. If they don’t accept our relationship, they’ll have two choices: accept it or reject it. But you and I will stay together. Besides, Ethan likes you. The three of us could start a new life, far away from our families. We could come back here or live anywhere in the world you choose.”

“Are you serious?”

“Why would I lie? My father has taken care of me and my son, and he has his fortune, but I have mine too. Starting over doesn’t scare me.”
