Chapter 0886 Alden and Serenity had invited Marcus and Valerie to dinner on Saturday night to share some important news. This would be the first time everyone involved would be gathered together, so anticipating this, Serenity had suggested to Marcus that it was time to tell Valerie the truth about Peter.

Marcus had been reluctant, but he knew his daughter was right. It was time to tell his wife a painful truth.

He preferred to be the one to tell her that Peter didn't remember the last 23 years of his life. From what they had observed, he only got occasional flashes of memory-specifically when he was with Ethan. Everyone assumed it was because of the deep bond between grandfather and grandson.

So, without delaying any further, on Friday during lunch, while they were sitting in the garden, Marcus looked at his wife and said:

"Valerie, my love... I need to talk to you about something."

"What is it, darling?" Valerie responded sweetly.

"Tomorrow, as you know, we're having dinner at Alden's house. Peter will probably be there..."

"Well, of course, he's the father... Marcus, let's leave the past behind and be as civil as possible for the kids' sake," Valerie said in a gentle tone.
