My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 1129 Laura thought she had control of the situation, but she hadn't expected Adrian to subtly turn the tables. Now it was him asking about the future of the two of them.

For a moment, she got lost in the good memories they'd shared, in moments that had belonged only to them. Things had been good. Not fake, genuinely good.

He'd find a flower by the side of the road, pick it, and hand it to her. And she'd keep it. She still did she'd kept every single one he ever gave her, like little secret treasures.

"Laura?" She cback to the present, smiled, and said, "Let's start over... I know it won't be easy. I don't know if my father or family will accept a relationship with you, but they're moving on with their lives, and I know they'll understand my decision." "Really?" "What?" "You're givinga chance?" "Yes, Adrian, yes... I'm giving us a chance. The one and only. Because this-this isn't a game. Either it works or it doesn't," she said, placing her hand over his. He was looking at her in a way that made something stir inside her. Adrian didn't say anything. He just took her hand between both of his and leaned in gently.

"I really want this to work. I want both of you by my side. I want us to be a family. I want it to be the three of us. Laura, you have no idea how much I want to see you both all the time, to be there when you need me. You don't know how much I long to wake up with you next to me, to go to bed knowing that at spoint Adele will ccrawl in with us because she wants to sleep by our side...

"I truly want a family life with you-something I never got to have. I want us to take this chance. I want it to work." Laura understood the weight of what Adrian was saying. She knew his past. She knew that, in his family, everything was about appearances. Status was everything, and Adrian had just been another pawn on the board. But now, seeing him play with his daughter, really being present in her life, making the most of every moment- she knew. He meant it. He really wanted to build a family. And she didn't need to dance around it anymore. She wanted a chance too and this would be it.

Closing the distance between them, she rested her hand on the cold cheek of that man and took the first step in what would be many.

She pressed her lips to his. They kissed with the intensity only they understood, with the longing only they truly knew. Laura felt a shiver run through her body, a sensation she hadn't felt since they'd first started dating. Those butterflies in her stomach cback to life.

They both stood. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close, continuing with a long, passionate kiss-one that hinted at more. But they had to stop. This wasn't the place. Maybe it was the right moment, but not the right place to get carried away.

"Laura..." he said, barely managing to pull away from her lips.

"Tell me..." "I think I should let go of you, or I don't know what might happen and your grandpa is watching our every move," Adrian said, feeling Magnus' stare.

"He's on the terrace smoking his cigar, isn't he?" Laura asked, a bit embarrassed.

"Yeah. And Matthew's with him." "Damn it. Fine..." Laura sighed, resigning herself to the fact that this special moment would have to wait for another day-and another place.

After all, she understood this was the family's house, and they couldn't go sneaking around like two teenagers. "You know something?" "Tell me." "I want to take you out! Let's go to dinner, or lunch, whatever you want..." Adrian said, looking her in the eyes.

"When?" "Tomorrow, if that's okay with you... just tellwhen, and I'll set everything up." "You'll need to set it up for three..." "Right... So?" "Tomorrow, after work, we'll go out to dinner. Sound good?" "Sounds perfect," Adrian said, a smile lighting up his handsface.

After that, he finally left, and Laura went back inside. Her grandfather was already waiting in the kitchen.

"Young lady..." said Magnus, making her jump.

"Grandpa... What's going on?" Laura asked, nervous.

"Why so jumpy?" "No reason..." "Sweetheart... I saw you. You were with Adrian, weren't you?" "Grandpa, it's just that I..." "Laura, I think we need to have a serious talk." "I'm listening..." "Here," her grandfather said, handing her a cup of coffee.

"Look, sweetheart... you weren't doing anything wrong. I guess you think I was going to scold you, but no, I won't. It's your life, and you're the one who gets to choose how to live it. If you want to get back with Adrian-then do it! What are you afraid of?" "I've given him... I've given us a chance," Laura said, a little shy.

"Well, it's about time! That young man was growing older by the minute..." "Grandpa... You're okay with it?"

"It's not about whether I'm okay with it. It's that Matthew and I saw it coming. Look, we're old and we've got swisdom. Living alone is a big decision. Sure, it has its good side, but it also has a dark one-and I wouldn't wish that on you. "I've seen the way you look at Lucius with Amanda, and Serenity with Alden. But you-you've just been the spectator. When are you going to be the lead in your own life?"

"Now. If I want a partner, I want the father of my daughter. I want to live all those things I've seen my siblings live. want to get married. I want the white dress, the dream trip, those Christmases, Easters, birthdays, and so much more by his side. "Then stop overthinking it and do something about it, sweetheart. It's tto love, to grow, to dream, and to live. All of us-and I mean everyone will be happy with whatever decision you've made. You shouldn't doubt that for a second." "Thank you... Grandpa! Tomorrow we're going on a date-Adrian, Adele, and me," Laura said, beaming.

"A date? Adele? What's romantic about that?" he said, surprised. "Well, she's our daughter, and it's important we go out as a family..."

"Sweetheart, inife, there's a tfor everything absolutely everything. Right now, you're getting youd life! back on track with Adrian. I think it's En fair and necessary, that if young Adrian spends twith Adete, tomorrow he spends it with you. Just you. "Because if you two don't carve out space for yourselves, believe me, routine will make you see things differently -and not in a good way.

"Tomorrow, we'll take care of Adele. And you'll make yourself even more beautiful than usual, and go out with the man you've decided to give a chance." "But..... Grandpa, what about my daughter?" "Laura... It's not like it's the first twe've taken care of her! Relax-we've got it covered. And if need be, I can ask Aria or Diana for help." "Alright... I'll do what you say. I trust you, Grandpa." "Yes, yes, now let's get to bed. Tomorrow's going to be a long day. And if you don't chtonight, don't worry-trust me, no one here will be surprised..." "Grandpa!" Laura said, blushing.
