All Chapters of Intertwined Destinies: A Nanny on the Farm: Chapter 241 - Chapter 250

Without believing what she just heard, she burst out laughing, shaking her head.“You seriously think I’d invite you to sleep in the girls’ dorm?”“What? What’s the problem? We’re friends,” he shot back, keeping a straighter face than necessary.“I have a roommate, you know.”“I know, but I don’t mind,” he replied, arching an eyebrow teasingly.“Are you actually serious?”She stared at him suspiciously, and that was when he finally gave in and smiled.“I’m kidding,” he laughed. “I’ll find a hotel for the night. My flight leaves tomorrow at ten.”Eloá pulled her phone from her pocket and checked the time. Almost midnight. The campus was quiet, and she knew Gael didn’t know the city. Worse yet, he was on foot.Biting her lower lip, she thought for a moment until her eyes lit up with an idea.“I think I know something better,” she said with a small smile.“What?”“Wait here for just a minute,” she asked, already walking toward the dormitory.“Eloá? What are you going to do?”But she was

“But…” he continues, “you know as well as I do that we don’t choose who our hearts beat for. No one controls what they feel, no matter how hard they try to suppress it. I swear I tried. God knows how many times. But you were always there, even in silence, even from far away.”She can’t speak. She only listens to him, as if every sentence is being pulled straight from his soul.“I’m not here to compete, nor to ask you for anything you can’t give. But… if you came here to try to get away from him, if you decided to move on because you know what you feel for Henri will never be returned… then please, I’m only asking one thing: don’t push me away without at least looking at me with some affection.”A deep silence follows.The kind of silence that screams.“I know I may not own your past, but… maybe, Eloá, if you let me, I can be part of your future.”Knowing she won’t say anything, Gael is overcome by a courage he has been saving for this moment for a very long time. His feelings, held ba

After they finish breakfast, Gael insists on walking her back to the dorm. The walk is short but quiet, as if they are both trapped inside their own doubts. When they stop in front of the entrance, he pulls her into a long, tight embrace, as though he wants to etch that moment into his memory.Before letting her go, he leans close to her ear and whispers,“Just try to think of me fondly... that alone is enough for me.”She simply nods, her heart aching, and walks away without looking back. Each step feels heavier than she can bear.When she enters the room, she finds Tess still asleep. Quietly, she grabs a change of clothes and heads straight to the bathroom. The moment she locks the door, her legs threaten to give out beneath her, but she forces herself to stay standing. She turns on the shower and lets the hot water run over her body, trying to wash away what is inside her—not her skin, but the confusion, the guilt, the regret.She closes her eyes, and everything comes back like a m

At Aurora’s house, the sound of hammers, laughter, and hurried footsteps fills the air. Workers move in and out of the hallways, putting together the new pink nursery with all the care the occasion deserves.“I still can’t believe what happened to us,” she says, her eyes glistening as she watches the crib being assembled.“But it did happen,” Alice replies, wrapping her in a warm hug. “And it’s beautiful.”“There are times in life when all the good things seem to happen at once,” Aurora comments with a smile.“Just like there were times when nothing but disasters came our way,” Alice adds, her voice tinged with melancholy.Aurora looks away for a moment.Even though she had been very young when the worst happened, Alice knows about the traumas her older sister endured. She knows enough to admire her strength and understand her silences.“Let’s not think about that right now, okay?” Aurora asks gently, trying to push away the shadows of the past.“It’s hard not to…” Alice murmurs. “Cai

Two days have passed since Saulo begins investigating Aurora’s mother’s whereabouts. On Sunday morning, one of his employees delivers a thick envelope containing the results of the search.The moment he starts reading, his expression changes.His eyes narrow.His jaw tightens.The hand holding the papers curls slightly into a fist.Without saying a word, he takes a deep breath and announces,“I’m going to Oliver’s house. Does anyone want to come with me?”He barely finishes the question before, exactly as expected, his daughter’s excited voice echoes down the hallway.“I do!”Elisa appears at the bedroom door wearing a short dress, her hair loose around her shoulders and her phone in hand.Saulo looks her up and down.For a moment, criticism rises to the tip of his tongue…But he restrains himself.He had promised he would ease up on her, as long as she gave him no reason to worry.“Then let’s go.”Thrilled by the unexpected freedom, Elisa runs over, grabs his arm, and kisses his chee
