Chapter 1096

"Thank you, Serenity. I have a lot to think about... But first things first-my daughter and my studies."

"That's the spirit, my beautiful sister!" Serenity said, hugging her again.

Finally, Serenity turned to Maximus and Diana. She looked at them, and they smiled at her. Maximus opened his arms and pulled her into a tight embrace.

"I'm so thankful life brought you to me. Even if circumstances didn't let us meet sooner, you'll always be my girl. Always. If you ever need anything, just call me. I'l always be there for you, understood?" Maximus said sincerely.

"Yes, Dad. I'll always make time to visit you. And don't take too long getting married! It's time you rebuilt your life and finally had a happy marriage. You've worked so hard to keep the family together-now it's time to enjoy it," Serenity said with a smile.

"Thank you, Serenity! Thank you so much! Thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for being so wonderful. Thank you for this beautiful granddaughter." "Maximus, you'll always be in my heart. And we're only a phone call away-so anytime we need to talk, we will. And when the chance comes to visit, we'll make it happen, alright?"

"Of course, my girl!"

"Diana, please take good care of my dad."

"Of course! Don't worry, this man will be very well looked after. And you'll be getting an invitation to the wedding soon," Diana said as she hugged Serenity.
