Mommy,We Got a Husband

Chapter 493: Another Side of Alaric



Rowena didn't expect such a thing to happen; it was indeed very awkward, and Stellan felt particularly sorry.

"Sorry, Rowena, this is really my fault." Stellan apologized to Rowena.

"It's okay." What else could Rowena say besides feeling awkward? After all, Alaric didn't do it on purpose.

After taking Alaric's call, Cormac hurried to The Knight Mansion. Upon seeing Rowena, he immediately hugged her and asked, "Are you okay? Were you scared?"

Rowena shook her head, and Stellan quickly apologized to Cormac. Cormac replied, "It's not your fault. I've already scolded Alaric."

"Cormac, don't blame Mr. Knight. It's not his fault either." Although it was awkward, Rowena knew it was just a misunderstanding, and Alaric was more embarrassed than she was.

"If I don't blame him, who should I blame? He came back without asking and scared you. Just scolding him is already lenient." Cormac quickly comforted Rowena, comforting, "It's okay, Rowena. He definitely won't come back tonight. You should get some sleep."

It was already so late, and Rowena was pregnant. Taking her home would affect her rest, so Cormac stayed with her at The Knight Mansion for the night.

Early the next morning, Cormac took Rowena away. After they left, Stellan felt the large mansion was very empty.

Mia was still missing, Caspian, Harry, and Elisa were at school, and Alaric was not there either.

She picked up her phone, hesitating whether to call Alaric. After all, it was her fault first, and he left so awkwardly last night. Who knows where he went?

She struggled for a while and dialed Alaric's number, but she hung up before it connected.

She wasn't sure if Alaric was still angry. What if his phone was off or he didn't answer?

After thinking for a while, she called Silas, who quickly answered, "Ms. Storm."

"Silas, did Alaric go to Nexus Innovations today?"

"Yes," Silas replied. "Mr. Knight came in early this morning."

He went to Nexus Innovations? If he went there, she had nothing to worry about.

"Ms. Storm, do you need to speak with Mr. Knight? I can help you..."

"No need!" Stellan quickly stopped Silas. "I don't need to talk to him. I was just asking. Don't tell him I called."

"Okay."

"Silas, you can get back to work."

Stellan hung up the phone. Since Alaric was back to work, she should get back to work too. The hospital was almost built, and she needed to check the construction site.

After arriving at the hotel last night, Alaric barely slept and came to the office early in the morning. Thinking about last night still made him feel awkward.noveldrama

After working for a while, he felt unproductive then closed his files.

Forcing himself not to think about last night, a name quickly surfaced in his mind- Tommy.

Alaric questioned again, 'Was Tommy really an undercover cop? Really? If Tommy deliberately created misunderstandings to oppose him and gain Ambrose's trust, it made sense. But what about the tiger head tattoo? Wasn't it obvious that this was a lie? If he was really an undercover cop, was there any need to do this?'

As he was thinking, the office door opened, and Cormac walked in.

Strangely, Cormac never knocked before entering, which used to annoy Alaric. After their relationship became distant, Cormac was very respectful, and Alaric thought it was better when he didn't knock.

Now that their relationship had recovered, Alaric found Cormac's habit of not knocking really annoying!

"Didn't you resign? What are you doing here?" Alaric asked him somewhat irritably.

"Just because I resigned doesn't mean I can't come back," Cormac replied reproachfully. "I haven't even scolded you for last night."

"Don't bring up last night again!"

If there was a pill to make him forget, Alaric would choose to forget last night!

"Where did you go after running away from home last night?" Cormac asked, somewhat gloating.

"A hotel, where else?" Alaric didn't want to go anywhere people could find him, so he stayed at a hotel for peace.

Cormac couldn't help but laugh "I've already taken Rowena home. We definitely won't stay at your place for a while. You can go back in peace."

"I'm not going back!" Alaric said firmly, with a hint of emotion.

"If you don't go home, what do you plan to do? Stay in a hotel forever?"

Alaric remained silent.

Seeing that he was serious, Cormac wanted to punch him. "Alaric, don't do something so foolish."

"How am I being foolish?" Alaric felt wronged. "Wasn't it me who went home first yesterday morning? Did Stellan pay attention to me? No. Didn't I go home again last night? And then that awkward thing happened. I left so awkwardly. If I move back again, don't I have any self-respect?"

Hearing Alaric's words and seeing his expression, Cormac couldn't help but laugh. It was the first time he had seen aric like this.

"What are you laughing at? Laugh again, and I'll kick you out!" Alaric felt angry. Cormac tried hard not to laugh and asked, "So what are you going to do? Wait for Stellan to beg you to come back?"

"She doesn't have to beg, but she should at least make the first move," Alaric felt more and more wronged. "She was taken by Ambrose, and I was scared to death. I was so angry. I'm a recovering patient, staying alone in a hotel. Isn't she worried about my old illness relapsing? Anyway, if she doesn't ask me to come back, I won't go back!" Cormac, who had grown up with him, had never seen him so stubborn.

"What if Stellan never says anything? Will you stay in a hotel forever?" "Cormac, you really can't say anything nice!"

Cormac laughed again and said, "Fine, you said it yourself. If Stellan doesn't ask, you won't go home. Whoever goes back first loses!"

Alaric now really wanted to kill Cormac.

"Enough about you two. I came today because I heard something shocking and wanted to confirm it with you," Cormac asked. "Is Tommy an undercover cop?"

"Don't mention Tommy to me. I'm allergic to that name!" Alaric felt more disgusted with Tommy than with Ambrose.

"What's wrong?" Cormac asked, puzzled. "Isn't it good that his identity is clear? Being colleagues with Neil means he's on the same side as you, working together to find the mastermind. Isn't that good?"

"Stop!" Alaric corrected seriously. "I don't care if he's good or bad. I don't get along with him and will never be on the same side as him!"
