Chapter 0818 Diana and Maximus stepped out of the room, both looking exhausted and worried. It was already 10:00 a.m., and there was still no news about Peter. Celeste had finally fallen into a deep sleep after drinking the tea they had brought her.

Marcus and Valerie had left the hospital a few hours earlier to pick up John from Magnus's house-they hadn't seen him in months.

Alden was drained, but he refused to leave the hospital. Even though Serenity insisted on staying with him, he had sent her home with her parents. Peter's surgery was taking too long, and he didn't want her exhausting herself too.
