Chapter 621 To my wonderful readers, Althea and Daven's journey has come to a close at Chapter 620. Thank you for following their long and winding road to happiness. I am thrilled to announce that SEASON 3 will be a spin-off featuring LYDIA AND CALE. To keep everything in one place, I've decided to CONTINUE WITHIN THIS SAME BOOK after consulting with my editor. I hope you will support Cale and Lydia just as much as you supported Althea and Daven.
Since their stories share the same timeline, you can still expect to see Althea, Daven, and the rest of the Callister and Miller families from time to time. Enjoy the journey! The hanging lights glowed warmly, their soft radiance spilling into every corner of the garden that had been transformed into a sea of white and pale blue flowers. The night felt almost too beautiful for Lydia to take so much so that it bordered on unreal. Like a dream she was afraid to blink away. How could someone like Cale... dear God.
If only she could scream-out of sheer, unfiltered excitement-because all of this... all of it... was Cale Miller's idea. Her future husband. Lydia forced herself to stay still, standing at the center of it all in a simple dress, one she had chosen for before the main event. Her fingers clutched the fabric at her side, restless, betraying the calm she was trying so hard to maintain. She hadn't expected anything like this. "I said, don't look yet!" Felicia's bright voice rang out from behind her, followed by Kalina's soft laughter.
"I'm not looking!" Lydia shot back, though the corners of her lips had already begun to lift. "You're the ones taking forever." There was no point asking how fast her heart was racing. She'd already lost count of how many times Felicia and Kalina had warned her not to move too much. Lydia had no idea what they were doing to her- or for her. "Because this has to be perfect," Kalina replied, her tone gentler now. "She's right," Felicia added with a quiet chuckle. Then, slowly, she turned Lydia face forward. And for a moment... Lydia couldn't say a word.

In front of her stood a long table, carefully arranged, filled with her favorite foods-dishes she didn't even remember ever mentioning. Small photographs were placed between tall candles. Some captured moments they had shared together... others were pictures of Lydia herself; taken at times she didn't even 1/3 Chapter 621 +25 Bonus know she'd been seen. "This..." Her voice came out barely above a whisper. "Since when did you-" "Not just us," Felicia cut in, her smile carrying a quiet meaning. Lydia turned her head-and that's when she saw them.
Althea sat carefully, while Daven stood beside her as if his entire world revolved around that one woman. There was warmth between them-something steady, something grounding. The kind of presence that had always made Lydia feel lucky just to be close to them. But what drew her attention the most... was the baby in Althea's arms. 1 A tiny boy. A quiet, living piece of happiness after everything their family had been through. Lydia felt a swollen gratitude, knowing her best friend had made it through all of that.
And that, somehow, life had chosen to be kind again-blessing them with a little boy named Chase Callister. A child welcomed with so much warmth and love-by both the Miller and Callister families. "Congratulations, my dearest friend," Althea said softly, her eyes full of warmth. Carefully, she placed Chase into his stroller before stepping forward, wrapping Lydia in a tight embrace. "This time... you've truly made an extraordinary choice." Lydia almost reached up to wipe the sudden sting at the corner of her eyes, swallowing hard instead.
The words were simple-but they settled deep in her chest, warm and full, like something she wanted to hold on to forever. She was just about to respond when the sound of approaching footsteps broke through the moment. And the atmosphere shifted. Not drastically... but just enough to make Lydia's breath catch. Cale Miller. He walked toward her without hurry, his black suit as impeccable as ever, his gaze calm-too calm. But the moment his eyes landed on Lydia, something flickered there. Something different. Something he rarely let anyone else see. "You look... not bad," he said simply.
Felicia let out a soft scoff. "Not bad? We spent two full days on this, and that's all you have to say?" She shot Lydia with a pointed look. "Your husband really is something, Lydia." Lydia could only respond with a small shake of her head and a faint smile. She was used to it by now- the flat, almost annoyingly indifferent way Cale Miller spoke, as if nothing ever impressed him. Cale glanced at them briefly, and his expression unchanged. "And the result speaks for itself." "Tch.
You-" 2/3 Chapter 621 802 +25 Bonus "Thank you," Lydia cut in quickly before Felicia could launch into a full rant. Her voice softened as she looked around. "If it weren't for all of you, I could never have pulled something like this together." Every pair of eyes turned toward her. Lydia met each of their gazes in turn before settling on Cale. "I... just didn't expect you'd be willing to do something like this." Cale didn't answer right away. Instead, he stepped closer-close enough to stand directly in front of her. His gaze hadn't wavered once. Not since he arrived.
She looked different tonight. More beautiful than usual. Striking in a way that made it difficult to look away. Whether it was the soft touch of makeup, the wedding dress she wore, or the quiet, glowing smile on her face... he couldn't quite tell. All of it, together, felt extraordinary to him. If it weren't for the guests, the carefully arranged program, the expectations tied to this night... he wouldn't have stayed this long. Even the ceremony that morning had already tested his patience-he'd nearly wanted to walk away from it all. And yet...
standing here now, looking at her-It was worth it. Comments +2 Support Share 3/3 admin
