Chapter 0950

After Peter left Valerie alone with her daughter, Serenity sat beside her mother, hugged her tightly, and felt the warmth of her embrace surrounding her.

“Mom! You have no idea how much I miss you…” Serenity said with absolute certainty.

“Serenity, sweetheart… I’m close by. You can call me anytime, and if you ever need me to come, I will. You can still visit home like before. I know you shouldn’t be driving in your condition, but a driver can always take you,” Valerie said as she watched her daughter’s eyes fill with tears.

“I’m sorry, Mom! This pregnancy has me crying over everything. Look at me! I’m not like this, and you know it…” Serenity said between sobs.

Valerie had to admit her daughter was right. Serenity had always been strong and mature, but now she looked as fragile as a lost little girl.

“My love, if you ever need me, never hesitate to reach out. I always text you, and you tell me you’re fine. I call, and you say the same. I know you’re more emotional now–I’ve been through it too. But if you feel this way, you know you can always come to me,” Valerie said, trying to comfort her.

“Oh, Mom… I never imagined what pregnancy would really be like, or how hard it would be to be away from home, away from you and Dad… not seeing you, not seeing John…” Serenity sobbed.

“My darling, you’re building your own family now. But you can share these feelings with Alden too. I don’t think he’s the kind of guy who would stop you from seeing us. Though, of course, I know he’s terrified of your father,” Valerie said playfully. “But I doubt he’d want to see you sad”

“I know! But I don’t want to be a bother. I don’t want to be selfish. You have my little siblings now, and you’re busy–especially since Camille isn’t around anymore,” Serenity explained hesitantly.
