Chapter 1065

After almost four hours on the road-where Alden's driver wasn't so much driving as flying he finally arrived. He didn't even wait for the car to park. As soon as he saw the hospital, he jumped out and ran inside.

Alden was sprinting down the hallway looking for the room number, his heart pounding in his chest. In that moment, he wished he had superpowers just so he could appear there instantly.

He felt a bit calmer knowing Serenity's mom and dad were already with her, and he had already told Peter and Celeste-she had gone too.

He needed to see his wife. He needed to meet his daughter.

Even Laura had already made it to the hospital. Technically, he was the only adult who hadn't arrived yet, along with the other men in the family like Maximus and Peter, who had stayed behind to finalize the union of the three families with the notary.

When he saw the room number, he finally felt a wave of relief. He opened the door-and walked into a slightly surreal scene. Lucius was sitting on the couch holding the baby, while Serenity chatted with her mom.

Celeste had gone with Laura to grab a coffee. She was a little sleep-deprived since she had just finished her final exams.

"Serenity! My girl!" Alden said as he saw his wife.

To him, she looked beautiful. Despite the tired look in her eyes, she was still the most beautiful woman in the world. Lucius realized it was time to hand the baby over to her dad.

"I think she should meet her father..." Lucius said a little nervously.

Alden looked at him, instinctively sizing him up. He had no idea why the guy was with his wife, but since Marcus and Valerie were both there and seemed fine with it, Alden didn't object.

"Let's see... My angel, my little one... Hi, baby! Hi, sweetheart! I'm your dad! My beautiful girl... It's okay now, Daddy's here, Mommy's here... Welcome to the family, my little one," Alden said as he held and admired his beautiful daughter, who had inherited Serenity's dark hair, but Alden's skin tone and gorgeous eyes. "She's beautiful!" Valerie said as she came over to see the baby in Alden's arms.
