Chapter 1161
"Your kids didn't leave saying, ‘We don't love you anymore, don't look for us.' They left seeking peace-like Lucius
or privacy-like Laura. And hey, Emma went with them, and that givespeace of mind.
"And as for the boys, think about this-you helped a father. | know it's not easy, but you gave a dad the chance
you never had with Lucius.
"If Maurice went with Paul, like | told you before, it's because he wanted to support his brother when he felt
vulnerable. They left, but I'm sure they'll cback.
"Meanwhile, you're not alone... You have us, and trust me, with how lively Vincent is, we'll have our hands full—
and then some. Theals all wounds, and before you know it, everything will fall into place," Diana said, trying
to calm the storm inside Maximus.
"I hope so, Diana. | really do. | just wanted to have my family together, and now, overnight, they've all taken
different paths..."
Diana understood what her husband was going through, so she made a huge effort not to judge him. She knew
that deep down, all of this was the karmic result of things he'd done wrong in the past.
She knew how important it was for Maximus to have his family reunited. But fate didn't seem to care about his
wishes. It might not look like he'd lost much—but he had.
Life had shown him what it felt like to have a united family, to have breakfast filled with laughter, to be close
with Lucius, to have his younger children still at home, and to see his little princess Laura once forgotten-remind
him that forgiveness always exists.
Diana knew that, which was why she just tried to help Maximus see that this was part of life. She only hoped that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthings would eventually fall into place so he could go back to being the man he was just a few months ago.
Maximus looked at Diana and their son. He wanted to be happy with them, but part of his heart was still with his
other children. He just couldn't turn the page yet. But he also knew he couldn't repeat the mistakes of the past.
So, despite his fears and pain, he smiled and did his best to be there for his wife.
It was a promise he'd made for life-and he was going to keep it.
"Diana..." Maximus said, crouching down.
"Tell me... What is it, love?"
"| promised to love you until my last breath, until the day | have to say goodbye and | will. Just be patient with
me. What I'm going through...I know it's the result of so many things that... well, it doesn't matter anymore. I'm
happy with you, and that's what counts-with you, with Vincent. And I'm sure that someday, being with all my
kids again will be enough.
"Thank you for being here! Thank you for not lettinggo..."
"I love you, Maximus! And the past doesn't matter. What matters is the present
and the future we're going to build together. You'll see, soon, everything will fall into place..."
"| love you to
too, Diana. | love our son....
| love this. | love our family. | love
what you brought into my life...
Thank you for not lettinggo/net
Thank you for staying! Thank you for the peace and your advice! Though | guess | should be the one giving you
advice..."
"It's never too late to start over, Maximus. Never too late..."
