The Alchemists

Chapter 914 - Now His Life Feels Complete

"Welcome, Sir." Luca welcomed them at the door and bowed. He looked surprised to see his young master coming with a woman and daughter he did not know. However, as a trained butler, he kept his cool and smiled warmly toward his young master and his guests.

"Luca, please meet my wife Marie, and my daughter Summer. We will stay here for a few weeks. My father is also heading here," Nicolae immediately introduced Marie and Summer his family trusted chief of staff.

Luca's face was suddenly filled with joy. He smiled broadly and shook Marie's hand vigorously. He liked his two masters and had felt sad for them because they lost the women they loved. He wished that someday he could see them find new loves and be happy.

Now, finally, the young master had found the love of his life.

"Ohh... I'm so glad to hear that, Sir. Welcome to Medici Castle, Madame. My name is Luca. My family has worked for the Medici family for generations."

"Why.. thank you, nice to meet you, Luca," Marie said kindly.

"Come on, let's go into my room first," Nicolae said. "We can change clothes, and I will take you to see the sunset from the west tower. It has the best view."

Marie followed Nicolae as he walked through the hall, hallway, garden, and various rooms in the huge castle before finally arriving at one of the towers, surrounded by a lush garden. Nicolae brought her into his 'room' which turned out to be so spacious and luxurious like a luxury suite in a five-star hotel.

Nicolae was right when he said that his room was also of a classic design, similar to the design of the rooms in the penthouse at the Nobel Hotel, only that the size was much bigger. The beautiful furniture seemed designed to be more minimalist.

Marie really liked that room. The bed was huge and looked very comfortable. It was a classic four-poster bed with gold carvings. There were some antique paintings displayed on the walls. There was also an antique desk with very comfortable chairs and luxurious Victorian sofas.

"This is ... beautiful," Marie said in a half-whisper.

"Tonight, we will sleep with Summer here because she is still unfamiliar with a new place. But tomorrow, I will take her around this castle and give her own room, which fits for a princess, across our room," Nicolae said.

Marie was blushing when she heard Nicolae mention 'our room'.

Ah ... she was very happy and couldn't wait to immediately formalize her marriage to Nicolae and become husband and wife again.

They would live happily together and make up for their lost time.

"Uhm .. okay. I will take a short rest with Summer before taking a bath and get ready to see the sunset with you," Marie said. She reached out to take Summer from Nicolae's arms. "Didn't you say you wanted to contact the twins? Altair and Vega must have been waiting to hear from you."

"Oh .. that's right. Thank you for reminding me." Nicoale kissed Marie's lips and went to the terrace to call his two teenage children. In his heart, he felt happy because Marie seemed very concerned about his two godchildren.

"Hey .. Vega ... This is Daddy. Sorry, I cannot go to Bordeaux to be with you two. Something big happened ... You won't believe this," Nicolae said in an enthusiastic voice.

"Oh my God ... Dad! You make me worry to death. Why didn't you call earlier?" Vega scolded him on the phone.

Her voice sounded annoyed but, at the same time, relieved. She was very happy because finally, Nicolae called her, but also annoyed because she suspected Nicolae really had forgotten her because he met a woman who was taking away all his attention.

"I'm sorry, Honey... But something urgent happened. Uhm ... do you still remember Auntie Marie from Singapore?" Nicolae asked cautiously. He wanted to find out what Altair and Vega think about Marie, after all this time.

"Uhm ... yes, still remember her," Vega said. "That sweet and beautiful Auntie Marie ..."

Her voice turned sad. This made Nicolae breathe a sigh of relief. It looked like Altair and Vega still liked Marie and were sad to learn that the woman passed away. So, hopefully, they would be happy to hear that it turned out that Marie was still alive and even now had reunited with Daddy Nic!

"Auntie Marie is still alive!" said Nicolae in a cheerful voice. "I met her yesterday ... Turns out she is Summer's mother ... and Summer is... She is my daughter ..."

Nicolae's voice became very emotional as he said his last sentence. Vega, who was listening to his words, became stunned.

Vega finally realized that all her life, she had never heard Nicolae's voice sound so happy like this. She could imagine Nicolae's expression in Grosetto, smiling happily while talking to her on the phone. Vega slowly smiled too.

"I'm so glad to hear that," said the girl. She turned to Altair beside her and told him briefly about Nicolae's situation

"What?? Daddy met Auntie Marie??? And it turns out that the cute Summer Dad's and Auntie Marie's daughter???" Altair snatched Vega's cellphone and talked to Nicolae to confirm it. "Jeez ... is this true?"

Nicolae breathed a sigh of relief at hearing Altair's enthusiastic words. He also had heard Vega's voice that sounded happy when she heard the good news he delivered.

Apparently, his worries were unreasonable. The two children still want him to be happy. When finally, Nicolae can be reunited with the woman he loved, who was also loved by the twins and even met his biological daughter, Altair and Vega were happy for him.

"Yes, this is true. I am very happy and speechless ..." Nicolae felt emotional. He had a warm personality and always had a happy outlook in life, but since six years ago, he began to close down and rarely smiled.

Now, he felt so easily touched, and today his cheeks hurt because he smiled so much. Really ... he realized that he had never been so happy in his life. He couldn't wait to meet Altair and Vega to share all his happiness with them.

Now his life felt complete.
