CHASING THE CARPENTER'S HEART 125
CHAPTER 125A HAPPY DAYThe sky above Washington stretched clear and cloudless.In the exclusive community of Medina, where millionaires and high-ranking officials made their homes, the late summer air felt soft and pleasant. Along the tranquil lakeshore stood the Madison estate, elegant and timeless, surrounded by sweeping green lawns and shimmering water that reflected the afternoon sunlight like liquid gold.This would become one of the most important days in Liam and Chatrine's lives.The wedding was exactly as Chatrine had wanted it: simple, intimate, and shared only with family and those closest to their hearts.Yet despite its simplicity, every corner of the garden had been prepared with extraordinary care and love.Rows of chairs stood neatly upon the grass, facing a small wooden altar crafted by Liam himself. The wood had been carefully selected and shaped by his own hands, a humble symbol carrying profound meaning. It was the work of a man who had built his life from the gro

CHAPTER 124 — ACCEPTING ONE ANOTHERWhatever mistakes had once existed between Liam and Evanka, Liam had never seen their bond as a romantic one. What connected them was not love in that sense, but their shared devotion to their son.If Liam now wished to marry Chatrine without delay and chose to announce it in front of Evanka, there was nothing wrong with that. His responsibility toward Evan would remain unchanged, and he would never regret the existence of the little boy who stood at the center of all their lives.Evanka was a woman Liam would always respect as the mother of his son.Chatrine was the woman he loved and wished to spend the rest of his life with.And Evan was his own flesh and blood, a child who would never receive less of his love or responsibility because of a sacred marriage.That evening, the Conelli family dining room glowed beneath warm lamplight and the rich aroma of roasted meat. Beyond the windows, the full moon hung high in the sky, pouring golden light acro

CHAPTER 123EVANKA ARRIVES FIRSTThe summer evening in Canterbury glowed beneath a golden sky. A gentle breeze drifted through the village, carrying the scent of roses and freshly baked bread from Isabel’s kitchen.Inside the house, Isabel hummed softly as she set the dining table. She had spent the afternoon preparing several of Liam’s favorite dishes: roasted chicken, buttery potatoes, and a fresh salad dressed with lemon vinaigrette.“Ah, if only Liam would come home soon,” she murmured with a fond smile as she placed a candle at the center of the table.The sound of a car pulling into the driveway drew her attention.Wiping her hands on her apron, Isabel walked toward the porch, expecting to see her son.Instead, someone else stood beyond the gate.“Evanka?”Her voice caught in surprise.Then her eyes fell upon the small boy beside her.“Oh, Evan! My precious grandson!”Evan ran toward her immediately.“Nana!”Isabel bent down and wrapped him in a tight embrace.“My goodness, you'

CHAPTER 122A SURPRISEThe sky above Canterbury was slowly sinking into twilight. The village lanes were bathed in soft golden light, creating a scene steeped in peace and nostalgia. Birds returned to their nests, and from the old cottages in the distance came the comforting scent of freshly baked bread carried on the cool evening breeze.Maple leaves swayed gently in the yard of the Conelli family home, rustling softly beneath the warmth of summer air. From the kitchen came the rich aroma of butter melting in a pan, mingling with rosemary and roasted chicken.Isabel hummed along to an old song drifting from the radio perched on the corner of the counter. Her voice was soft, occasionally roughened by age, yet as comforting as the evening itself. Wearing a lavender-patterned apron, she moved busily around the kitchen, stirring sauce, arranging plates, and setting the table with cheerful dedication.The dining table was already prepared with beef stew, mashed potatoes, and Liam’s favori

CHAPTER 121MOVING FORWARD, BETTER THAN BEFOREThe afternoon sky deepened toward evening, leaving streams of golden light pouring through the gallery warehouse's tall windows. Fine wood dust drifted lazily through the air, glowing like tiny sparks suspended in sunlight.Liam and Chatrine had already gone upstairs, though traces of their hurried reunion remained below. Her bag and phone were still resting where she had left them, forgotten in the excitement of seeing each other again.Upstairs, they had intended to wash up quickly before heading to dinner.Instead, they found themselves reluctant to let the moment end.Warm water cascaded from the shower, softening the tension that had lingered between them for far too long.Liam gently brushed a loose strand of hair from Chatrine's face.“You know,” he said quietly, his voice low and warm, “I want us to continue... but this time, do it better.”Chatrine looked at him through the mist of steam.For a long moment neither of them spoke.

CHAPTER 120RETURNChatrine Madison looked impossibly composed, almost too elegant for a cluttered woodworking warehouse.Her crisp white linen shirt framed her slender figure, her hair tied in a low ponytail, and her gaze remained exactly as Liam remembered it: deep, sharp, and unwavering as she watched him cutting through a thick wooden plank.It was obvious she had been standing there for some time, quietly observing him at work. There was something fascinating about the way Liam handled wood. His movements were rough in appearance, yet every action carried remarkable precision and focus.For nearly ten minutes, Chatrine remained at the doorway before Liam finally sensed her presence.He shut off the machine at once.The sudden silence rang louder than the saw itself.“Since when have you been standing there?” he asked, his voice still unsteady.“A while,” Chatrine replied simply.Her tone was professional. Controlled.Too professional for two people who had once loved each other e
