My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0694

While events, both expected and unexpected, were beginning to unfold in Valentia, life in the Maldives remained peaceful. One thing was clear: Laura’s pregnancy was nearing its end. Despite having medical services on the island, any complications would require leaving for better care, which could pose challenges.

At 36 weeks, Laura struggled daily to get out of bed. Her swollen belly prevented her from even seeing her feet. Paul and Maurice were always attentive to their sister, who was visibly more exhausted each day.

Emma couldn’t help but see traces of Mary in Laura. Mary had been so young when she gave birth to Serenity. Now, Serenity was no longer a child, and Emma prayed she was taking care of herself—especially since a pregnancy at this time would be difficult.

One day, while Serenity and Laura went for a walk, Emma approached Alden with a worried expression.

“Son… Can we talk for a moment?”

“Of course, Emma. What’s going on?”

“Alden, dear… I’m not blind. I know what’s going on between you and Serenity. I don’t have a problem with it, and I don’t think I should, but… have you thought about what’s going to happen when we go back to Valentia?”

“Every single day.”

“Really?”

“Yes, Emma. Not a day goes by that I don’t worry about how Valerie and Marcus will react, or my father. But the one I’m most concerned about is Maximus, my uncle. I know we’re not blood–related, but…”

“Yes, Alden, that’s exactly what worries me. You know you can count on me, but you need to prepare yourself. The people back in Valentia aren’t going to take kindly to what’s happened here.”

“I love Serenity, and that’s all that matters to me.”

“I just want you to know that I support you both. Whatever comes our way, we’ll face it together. You know, the past may not have been kind to your father and Serenity’s mother, but now fate has brought you two together. To make it all the way here and begin something new… it’s clear this is what destiny intended.”
