- Mom... Lola...
Francès Goren and Lola turned their eyes to Goren and Eames, who were in a corner not far from them, holding hands.
Goren blushed violently at their gaze upon him.
As if Alex had sensed his apprehension, she gently tightened her fingers on his, letting him know that she was there, and giving him the courage to continue what he had to say.
- I asked Alex to become my wife... He looked at Alex, who was looking at him with her big hazel eyes shining with adoration, a big smile on her lips. She said yes.
At his words, a big smile appeared on the face of Lola, who lit up with joy.
She clapped her hands, so happy with the news.
- That's great. Lola turned to Francès and threw herself into his arms. Isn't it grandma...
At her words, Francès' heart beat violently in his chest.
Grandma...
It was so strange to hear...
But she loved it.
Having grandchildren was one of her dearest desires...
And her son had fulfilled one of her wishes.
With this little girl...
Lola...
Who was so adorable.
And soon...
The arrival of this other child.
Also...
Francès was finally relieved that his son had decided to ask Alex to marry him.
It had taken him a long time...
So would it be for this that they had left...
And that she had misinterpreted things.
Knowing her son...
It was entirely possible.
Bobby must have wanted to make things right.
- Bobby... Goren looked at his mother. You can carry this box for me...
Frances Goren pointed to a small box that had been sitting on the dresser next to his portrait when he joined the police force.
Goren nodded, reluctantly let go of Alex's hand, and walked towards the chest of drawers.
When he reached the dresser, he picked up the case, and walked towards his mother.
Arriving at the side of Lola and Francès, he handed her the small box, which she took in her hands.
- Alex... Come here.
At the words of Frances, Eames looked at Goren, not knowing what to do.
Goren nodded to her to come closer.
When Eames was at Goren's side, Francès opened the case, under Lola's big hazel eyes full of curiosity.
At the object that the box contained, Lola's eyes shone with wonder.
- How beautiful she is...
At Lola's words, Francès smiled, touched.
She took out the object, which was none other than her wedding ring.
She took Alex's hand in hers, opened it, and placed the silver ring set with a small diamond between her fingers, closing her hand.
- You are going to be my daughter... Francès gave a tender smile to Eames, who stood there as if she couldn't believe what had just happened. Then my wedding ring is yours by right.
It could not be possible...
This ring...
Goren's mother gave it to her...
And she considered it her daughter.
What the hell...
Eames was so afraid of not being accepted...
Afraid...
That Goren's mother wouldn't like her.
Especially when Bobby told him at the time...
That his mother never liked any of his girlfriends.
She couldn't have been that happy.
Tears came to her eyes, clouding her vision.
With gentleness, Frances brought his hand to Eames' cheek, caressing it.
- I couldn't have been more proud of my son's choice...
Frances turned her gaze to her son, who couldn't take his eyes off the scene unfolding before him.
Goren never thought he would be so happy in his life.
Lola was calling her mother Grandma...
And Alex...
Francès had accepted her immediately...
And considered her an integral part of his family.
Alex had become her mother's daughter.
It was the best day of her life.
And to think that Eames had been worried...
That she had been afraid that her mother wouldn't accept her.
He had known from the beginning...
That she could only love Alex.
Since he had let his feelings for Eames out...
...everything was smiling at him.
And all his demons began to disappear little by little.
And all this...
He owed it all to this little blonde woman...
And his little girl.
Who were everything to him.
And most of all...
Eames was to be his wife.
