My Love Until the Last Goodbye (Mary and Maximus) novel Chapter 415

Chapter 0415 

“Ma’am, why are you asking so much about my grandpa?” Ethan asked curiously. 

“Just curious, little one! I always see you alone, and I’ve never seen your parents or your grandpa around.” 

“No, I’m never alone! My grandpa is always with me. He takes really good care of me.” 

“That’s wonderful! It sounds like you have a great relationship with him.” 

“I do! He’s the best grandpa in the world!” 

Valerie smiled at him, finishing the sandwich she was making. She handed it to Ethan along with a glass of juice, then sat across from him with a glass of water in her hands. 

“So, Ethan, your mom lives in Spain, your grandpa and dad are here… and what about your grandma?” 

“My grandpa says she lives in Argentina. She’s from there. 

“Wow, that’s far away!” 

“Yeah, I haven’t met her yet. She lives really far from here.” 

Hearing that, Valerie tried to push the ghost of Peter out of her mind and focus on dinner preparations. Then, a small voice called out from upstairs. 

“Mom! Mommy! Can you help me down?” John called from the top of the stairs. 

“I’m coming, sweetheart!“!!! 

Valerie went to help John downstairs so he could spend time with Ethan. Meanwhile, she and the cook, Greta, began preparing dinner. The vegetables were a disaster–Valerie, usually a master in the kitchen, was too distracted to focus. 

“Ma’am, why don’t you take a rest? I can handle dinner tonight,” Greta suggested kindly. 

“Thank you, Greta. I’m really not very focused today.” 

“Mrs. Valerie, you’ve seemed distracted lately. You’re also not eating like you usually do,” Greta noted, her tone laced with concern. 

“Oh, I think I’ve just had some stomach issues. Food hasn’tbeen sitting well with me.” 

Greta studied Valerie’s pale face and faint dark circles under her eyes. She was an older woman with an exceptional knack for cooking, which was why Valerie had hired her despite her age. As long as Greta prepared delicious meals, nothing else mattered 

At that moment, Emma walked into the kitchen to grab a glass of water for her medication. 

“Mrs. Emma, doesn’t Mrs. Valerie look a bit unwell?” Greta asked, glancing at her. 

“Let me see,” Emma said, stepping closer with a curious look. “My dear, Greta’s right. Are you feeling sick? Is something bothering you?” 

“No, no! I’m just tired. It’s been a long day. I just need a bit of sleep. Lately, I’ve been feeling drowsy, but a nap usually fixes it. Really, I’m fine.” 

Emma and Greta exchanged knowing looks. Valerie noticed and quickly asked, “What are you two thinking?” 

“Sweetheart… could it be that you’re pregnant?” Emma asked cautiously.

“Yes, ma’am, you have that glow of a mom–to–be,” Greta added. 

“What? No! Of course not! I’m 43! I’m more likely to be dealing with menopause than pregnancy.” 

“If I were you, I’d get at 

just to be sure,” Emma advised gently. 

Just then, Camille arrived with the driver, carrying the groceries they’d bought.
