My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 1169

[5 Years Later]

It was an autumn afternoon, the scenery in the Willowcombe countryside painted in hues of yellow, orange, and brown. Today, after being postponed for several years, Peter would finally marry Celeste. Their daughters, now just over five years old, would serve as little bridesmaids and carry the train of their mom's dress.

In a simple, intimate, and beautiful ceremony, the couple—who had learned to love through adversity-would finally unite their lives before God.

This would be the first time in five years that the whole family would be reunited. Even Lucius and his daughter, who had been away, had confirmed their attendance.

Peter had invited Marcus; however, he understood how uncomfortable it might be for his friend's wife. Even though there were few memories left, it was clear that something had once happened between them, so Peter gladly accepted his congratulations from afar.

"How are you?" Maximus asked, adjusting the boutonnière on his brother's black tuxedo.

"Nervous!" Peter said honestly.

"You? Nervous?" Maximus asked, surprised.

"Hey! This is my first and only wedding. What do you expect?" Peter replied, straightening his bow tie.

"Okay, okay, fair enough! But I'm sure everything will be perfect... It's crazy to think that today, you're finally getting married. So many years, so many stories."

"And you? How are you feeling?" Peter asked, noticing how tired his brother looked.
