Chapter 0835

Valerie, for her part, saw nothing but love in Alden’s every action toward her daughter.

Marcus, on the other hand, felt something… different.

Was it anger? Or was it pain–the realization that his little girl was no longer just his baby?

He hadn’t fully come to terms with the changes in their lives.

And he wasn’t sure he ever would.

Serenity stirred, her voice laced with sleep.

“Alden… my love… what happened?”

Alden brushed a hand over her hair.

“Dearest, you look exhausted. I think it’s best if you go home with your parents. You’ll be more comfortable there. You can get proper rest and eat better than you would here.”

“But I want to stay with you. I want to support you through this.”

“My love, right now, the most important thing is our baby. You shouldn’t be dealing with so much stress. If I could, I’d also send my father’s wife home, but she refuses to leave.”

His eyes softened.

“Please, love… just give me that peace of mind. Once my father is out of surgery, I’ll come get you. But for now… please go home.”

Serenity hesitated.

“Alden…”

Valerie took a step forward, placing a gentle hand on her daughter’s arm.

“Dear… you must be exhausted. Come home with us. You could use a warm bath and a soft bed. Your father and I are worried that you haven’t been getting enough rest.”

Serenity’s eyes welled with tears.

“Mom…”

Valerie immediately sat beside her, wrapping her arms around her daughter.

“My girl…”

She held her, rocking her slightly.

The moment was both tender and strange.

Both Alden and Marcus watched as Valerie cried and laughed at the same time, completely overwhelmed by emotion.
