NovelUpdateChapter 1128 These days while Maximus and Diana were away from home, a few things were shifting-one of them was Laura. She watched, though cautiously, how Adrian cby every afternoon after work to visit Adele.
Before the sun went down, Adrian would take a walk with his daughter, who was already walking and had grown to love it.
Adrian might've been exhausted, but the afternoons belonged to his daughter. By the end of it, this man in an elegant suit would end up with messy hair, a wrinkled suit, his shirt untucked or stained with dirt and grass.
If Laura looked closely, the man in front of her was no longer a boy. He was someone who had slowly matured and was stepping up to take responsibility for his daughter.

Little by little, that had started to break down the walls she'd built around herself.
Every tAdrian cto the house, Laura gave him space to be with his daughter. She kept herself busy while he played with her. Later, they'd both cinside, and he'd help bathe her and get her into pajamas. That's when Adrian would leave the Evans mansion.
He always promised to cback the next day. It was unbelievable, but Adele couldn't settle down anymore unless she saw her dad. The swent for Laura, though it was hard for her to admit.
That day, Laura decided she needed to talk to him. Things needed to shift a little; they couldn't go on like this. So she followed the usual routine, and after Adrian laid their daughter in her crib, Laura waited outside Adele's room.
"Adrian, can we talk?" Laura asked, a little nervous.
"Yeah, of course! What's going on?" "Let's go to the garden..." Adrian thought Laura seemed different. He knew she still had her reservations, and though they'd had a few close moments, she usually kept her distance.
When the two of them got to the garden, they sat on a bench facing a little koi pond.

"And yours, Laura. But I also know what I did to you isn't easy to forgive, and believe me, I get it. I accept your distance, and I don't want to force anything. For now, I'm happy just to have you letsee my daughter.
"You have no idea how much it means toto share these moments you've allowedto have with her. I never imagined what it really meant to bring a life into this world.
"Laura, I know what I want-and what I want is you and our daughter," Adrian said, looking her straight in the eyes.
Laura looked at him and felt herself getting lost in his beautiful eyes, in his handsface-just like when she was a naïve, immature girl.
"Adrian, it hasn't been easy for either of us. It's been hard-really hard-forto accept that hat now you're here with Adele, that you roll around in the grass with her, that nothing else matters to you but spending your free twith her."
"Laura, she's my daughter, and I've grabbed this chance you gavewith both hands. Bux. What about you and me?" Adrian said, trying to get closer to her. "What do you mean?" "I mean, do you think there's a
