Chapter 0793

Three hours had passed since they had stabilized Peter. When the nurse stepped out, she searched for the patient’s wife.

Maximus, who had been anxiously waiting, immediately pointed to Celeste.

He wanted to see his brother. He needed to talk to him.

But Peter needed to see her first.

Maximus knew that Celeste was the one who truly brought him peace–and right now, more than ever, that was exactly what he needed.

Celeste walked into the room, her eyes immediately finding Peter.

At first, his gaze was distant, unfocused. But the second he noticed her, there was a flicker of recognition.

“Celeste…” he said in surprise. “You’re still here…”

Celeste crossed her arms. “Where else would I be, Peter? How could I leave when you’re in the hospital?”

Peter blinked. “I thought that…” He trailed off.

“What?” she asked, her voice steady, but her eyes filled with curiosity.

Peter hesitated, then shook his head. “Nothing… I’m just… really happy to see you here.” He smiled faintly.

Celeste took a step closer. “When were you planning to tell me what’s been happening to you?”

Peter met her gaze and immediately knew–there was no escaping this conversation.

“How much do you know?” he asked cautiously.
