My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0858

On the way, just like Peter had said, he stopped by a bakery and bought a cheesecake with berries. Then, he picked up some strawberries and other berries–something to help Celeste get through the trip. As for himself, he only had coffee, but strangely, even though it was the same coffee he always drank, it didn’t taste as good this time.

“Peter, don’t you think you should rest a little? You just go out of the hospital yesterday, and now we’re already on the road to who–knows–where. You’re driving like nothing happened,” Celeste said, worrie

“Celeste, I know the man you knew–or the version of me you met–is different. But if there’s one thing I’m sure of, it’s that no matter how hard I try, as long as I can walk and move freely, I won’t stay still. I spent over a month in that awful place. It’s time to take my life back.”

“Alright… So where are we going?”

“The city is called Galea. That’s where my house is. I’m supposed to meet my lawyer there, so we’ve got about an hour and a half to get there. I think we’re making good time. Oh! Look! That’s my friend’s restaurant! Let’s stop for pizza. Do you feel like having some?”

“Well… I…”

restaurant.

When they arrived, everything looked the same as always except for one thing that caught Peter’s attention. Calum wasn’t there. There was a different chef. But what really stood out was a photo of Dolly Brooks, Calum’s wife.

“Hello, good afternoon! I’m Isabella, and I’ll be taking care of you today. Will your order be for here or to go?”

“To go,” Peter said, scanning the place for Calum.

“Excuse me, Isabella, where’s Calum?”

“Oh! The chef? He’s out of town. He went to his wife Dolly’s homeland. It’s been almost fifteen years since she passed, so he traveled to Hesperia for the anniversary.”
