Chapter 418

• "I've never been one for relationships, so I always hated the terms like 'meant to be' or 'they complete each other' because that's not at all what love should be in my eyes. When I look at Sarah and Mitch I see two complete people who work hard everyday at their relationship. These two people wake up everyday and despite everything that they've gone through together and the chaos of the world around them, they choose to love each other every single day. And I'll be honest, I used to see that as kind of a pointless thing to do, but now I see how beautiful it can be."
• "So right now I would like to thank the two of you. Mitch, I'd like to thank you for being one of the best friends a guy could ask for and for bringing this lovely lady into our lives. And Sarah, thank you for being you and for loving Mitch the way that he deserves to be loved. You two give me hope, and sometimes that's all you need. To Sarah and Mitch" Max at last raises his glass up and the rest of the room follows before the sound of applause fills the room. He came up with that within the last hour, well done Max.
• "That was incredible. Well done!" Amelia stands to give Max a kiss on the cheek and congratulate him as he finally makes his way back to the table.
