Chapter 1866:
Elyse chuckled softly, patting her friend’s back in comfort. “Don’t worry, I'm fine. | was just so exhausted, that’s
all. I needed the rest.”
As everyone crowded around the babies, Peyton took the opportunity to pull Jayden aside, his voice dropping to
a conspiratorial whisper. “Jayden, considering our relationship, can | be your kids’ godfather?”
Jayden raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk tugging at his lips. “You love kids that much? Don’t you have a
girlfriend? Why not have your own kids to dote on? Why are you eyeing mine?”
Peyton shot back with a grin, “If you won't letbe their godfather, then Clive certainly doesn’t deserve it
either!”
Understanding the playful schat play, Jayden leaned back, crossing his arms. “So, this is a joint effort, huh?
Well, here's my answer: neither of you will be their godfather.”

Peyton’s jaw dropped in mock indignation. “What!?” He seemed ready to throw a punch, but upon realizing it
was a losing battle, he shifted gears, his mood lightening. He turned toward the children with exaggerated cheer.
“Pumpkin, my sweetie, let your godfather hold you!”
Meanwhile, Jayden returned to Elyse’s side, glancing around at the lively scene unfolding before them. Their
eyes met, and in that shared glance, they saw not just the joy of the present but the promise of many more days
just like this.
And so, the story of their lives continued, with many more beautiful days ahead.
The End.
Morgan admired her reflection as she smoothed out her ensemble, dabbed on a fresh coat of lipstick, and slipped
out the door. She hailed a taxi and made a beeline for Cambape’s most extravagant hotel.
No sooner had she stepped from the cab than she caught sight of Cody and Irving locked in a tense standoff with
Celeste and Nick.

Morgan's eyes landed on Celeste, a face she knew all too well. Given the longstanding feud between Celeste and
Cody, their proximity struck her as peculiar. With a warm stride, Morgan approached Cody and exchanged
greetings. His face softened with worry as he asked, “Are you holding up alright after your globetrotting
adventure?”
She gave a gentle nod. “The world is full of amazing things, but | feel like I'm stuck in a tiny corner. There's so
much room forto enjoy it all, but | just can’t seem to open up enough to take it in. | guess I'm the one who's
being narrow-minded.”
Cody’s tone turned wistful. “I'm dreaming of ditching everything in a few years and carving out a fresh start.
Care to roam the globe withwhen the tcomes?”
A smile bloomed on Morgan's lips. “I would be delighted.”
Celeste, catching wind of Cody's talk of an early escape, shot him a glare sharp enough to cut glass before
turning on her heel. With a subtle wave to Nick, she swept toward the ballroom.
As they entered, Nick took in the lavish surroundings and mused, “Word has it Jayden poured his heart into
decorating this place for the wedding. He has truly spared no expense.”
Celeste’s voice carried a hint of warmth. “A man eager to embrace marriage can’t be all bad.”
But just as she crossed the threshold, a hand seized her arm. Felicia, her eyes blazing at the sight of Celeste,
erupted. “You've got sgall waltzing in here, you shameless old hag!”
Celeste had her own choice words for Felicia but, mindful of Elyse’s big day, swallowed them down. Plastering on
a tight smile, she fired back, “Fancy a showdown, you old crow? Save it for after the wedding—I'm not
squabbling with you now!”
Felicia huffed dismissively. “As if | would waste my breath on you. Consider this a heads-up: stir up trouble at
Elyse’s wedding, and you'll wish you hadn't.”
