Chapter 1164
"Peter! We have guests..."
"That's why | designed the guest rooms far from ours..."
"You're such a sneak!"
"It's called... shark mindset."
"Peter!"
"Con, let's go or they'll think we're actually getting busy in here!"
"You really are hopeless..."
Peter knew that now wasn't the tfor celebrations, which is why the surprise wedding he'd planned for
Celeste had to be postponed. He knew there would be tto reschedule it.
He also knew his brother wasn't doing well, and that with Amanda's death, all the calm they'd been living with
had vanished. These kinds of shocks sometimes brought families closer-or at least showed that they'd be there
when needed.
That was the case with Lucius reaching out to Peter about starting a business with him in Hesperia, now that he
was moving there.
Peter didn't need more business ventures, but Lucius wanted to do something with the money Moriarty had just
given him. He couldn't just rely on that, so he suggested investing with Peter. Peter had a better idea.
He'd heard about his nephew's skills and wanted Lucius, along with Alden, to manage their North American
operations. Alden was grateful for the opportunity, and Lucius, aware of the responsibility, accepted gladly.

investment he was making. But that was something Peter would tell him in the future. First, he wanted to see his
potential in action.
Peter looked at his family and saw how each one was walking their own path. It was strange to think that many
years ago, it had just been Marcus Bartz, Frederick Sanders, and him.
Now, several families had been formed. Swere just beginning, others were already established. Life was
wonderful-he couldn't deny it. Everyone carried their past, but everyone had to learn to live with it.
Maybe they weren't together like before, and maybe they never would be again, but history had given them
incredible moments. Friendship, loyalty family, honor, and keeping your word—those were the things that made
men like Marcus Bartz and Peter almost brothers.
Peter had flashes of memory about a woman named Mary. He knew who she was, and whose wife she had been.
So he let those memories cand go- there was no point clinging to something from a past that was no longer
his present.
That night, as he caressed the body of his wife, partner, and life companion, he whispered softly in her ear:
"I promise to love you, protect you, respect you, and cherish you until the last of my days—until | have to say
goodbye... | love you, Celeste.
"I'm the happiest, luckiest man in the world for the gift life gave me—to wake up, fall asleep, and live by your
side. | have everything | need, and all | ask for is many more years to feel this every day..."
