Chapter 0478 

Peter was holding Celeste, his nose buried in her unruly curls. The scent of this woman brought him a sense of calm. As he hugged her, for a moment, his hand moved from her waist to her lower abdomen. As soon as he did, a memory flooded his mind the scent of rosewater, that warm belly he had experienced this before. It was like a déjà vu 

He was about to say something, but he chose to remain silent. He couldn’t trust his mind, but one thing was certain: seeing Serenity face to face land stirred something him. 

“Celeste.” Peter said as he turned her to face him. 

“Tell me…” she replied, meeting his gaze. 

“Twenty years ago, I had an accident. I lost all my memories. The man you see now is nothing like the man I was before. What you see now is what I managed to relauild after that accident. I was in a coma and other states for five yours, When I woke up, I couldn’t care for myself. Recovery wasn’t easy. It took almost another three years before I could leave the hospital. Since then, my life has never been the same.” 

Peter began to tell her the entire process that led him to become the man holding her now. He didn’t hold back any details. Celeste looked at him in awe, now understanding why his body was covered in scars–scars she had noticed since the first night they had been together. Though, at that time, she didn’t think it was appropriate to 

“Celeste… I have two children. A 23–year–old son, Alden, who is the father of Ethan, the one you know. I also have a 20–year–old daughter, her name is Serenity. She knew nothing about me until today, when we ran into each other at the café near the school where you work. Her mother and I were going to get married, but then that damn accident happened. My life stopped for almost eight years, while hers and my daughter’s continued. She married my best friend, who is now legally Serenity’s father.” 

“As soon as I regained my awareness of who I was, I went to search for them. But when I arrived in Hesperia, I realized they had already bullt a life. I couldn’t bring myself to destroy it, so I decided that the best thing I could do was let them go. As for Serenity, even though I tried, I could never leave her alone. I’ve followed her life from the shadows. I’ve always tried to know where she was, and that made me happy, until today, when fate made us Cross paths.” 

“Peter… That’s what you’ve been carrying all this time, I’m so sorry for what you’re going through,” Celeste said as she hugged him tightly.

Celeste clearly understood that losing someone was hard, and although Peter’s ex and daughter were still alive, had chosen to step away from them for their own good. It was a very complicated situation, and she could see it in his eyes. When she had met this man, she never imagined the storm he carried inside. 

“Peter, you know you can count on me for anything you need. You can come here as many times as necessary, just don’t do it like yesterday. I’m worried something might happen to you. When you feel like you can’t handle it, talk to me, and I’ll go with you. But it’s not safe for you to drive here in the state you were in yesterday. You matter to me, and I don’t want to lose you.” Celeste sald, somewhat surprised by the words that had slipped from her mind and mouth 

In response, Peter simply kissed her passionately, stealing the breath right out of her. In that moment, she saw so mich vulnerability In his eyes that it made her feel tender toward him. She had an overwhelming desire to hug him until he could barely breathe, but for her limited strength, It just made Peter smile, feeling a tickling 

sensation. 

“That’s the Peter I want to see! This is the man I’m falling for! I’m here for you. If I can help you heal your past, I’ll do so gladly. Although, I agree with everyone, you should talk to your ex. It’s not fair that everyone knows
