Nina decides to tell Robert the truth, allowing him to decide if he wants a relationship with Daniel. Over time, Robert opens up to the idea, and the bond between father and son strengthens.
As the family dynamic evolves, Daniel finds himself falling for Nina. Eventually, their relationship blossoms into a romance. When Daniel and Nina decide to marry, Robert is overjoyed at the prospect of having a complete family. The story concludes with a sense of newfound happiness and fulfillment for all involved.
