Mommy，We Got a Husband

Griffon had a bad feeling. He wanted to meet Jason to ask what Alaric had talked to him about, but Jason refused to see him, which made Griffon even more anxious.

It was not that he didn't want to see him; he was afraid to see him. Did he tell Alaric everything? But even if Jason did, what could happen? So much time has passed, and all transactions were in cash, leaving no trace. Without evidence, Griffon would deny everything.

Whether it was tampering with DNA results or Galatea's car accident, Alaric had no evidence, and he couldn't do anything to him!

Griffon could only leave with a heavy heart. Not far from the prison, a car was parked, and Ambrose, sitting inside, withdrew his gaze and smirked, "Interesting."

Denny nodded. "Mr. Vale, you originally came to see the perpetrator, but unexpectedly, both Alaric and Griffon came here."

"The fact that they both came here one after the other is no coincidence." Especially seeing Griffon's obvious nervousness earlier, Ambrose's eyes narrowed as he muttered to himself, "Could there be more to Stellan's car accident?" Denny was puzzled. "What more could there be to a car accident? Otherwise, it would be premeditated murder."

Premeditated murder?

When this thought flashed through Ambrose's mind, he shuddered.

Could someone really have premeditated Stellan's murder?

If so, that person must die!

Ambrose snapped, "I must thoroughly investigate Stellan's car accident."

Denny responded, "Yes, Mr. Vale."

After returning to the company lounge, Galatea waited for a long time, but Alaric did not return, making her very anxious.

If she held a press conference without informing him and announced that she already had a husband, it would put Alaric in an awkward position.

What should she do?

Galatea called Alaric again, but he was on another call, so she had to hang up.

She checked the time; the day was almost over. If she couldn't hold the press conference, she would contact Marigold first.

"Mrs. Knight, Stellan's call." Joe quickly reported to Marigold.

Alaric had already warned Marigold that next time, he would bring Galatea, Harry, and Elisa to the Knight family. It seemed this matter couldn't be hidden anymore, and it was impossible to drive Galatea out of Arizona. Marigold sighed, "You answer it. I don't care what you say; Keep her calm and don't let her expose anything."

"Okay." Joe then answered Galatea's call, "Hello, Ms. Storm."

When she heard it wasn't Marigold, Galatea's heart tightened, and she quickly asked, "I want to speak to Marigold."

"After speaking with you, Mrs. Knight had a heart attack and has been bedridden all day after taking her medication," Joe said.

A heart attack?

"Ms. Storm, you and Mrs. Knight were family before. Why make things so difficult? Rest assured, the child is living a life of luxury here, and no one is mistreating him. Mrs. Knight dotes on him very much, and Mr. Knight is very filial. Since Mrs. Knight fell ill, Mr. Knight has been extremely worried. Ms. Storm, please consider Mr. Knight more. He is six years old, and understands a lot."

Joe added, "The conflict between you and Mrs. Knight ultimately hurts the child. Let's not escalate things. It's best to resolve this peacefully. If it becomes a public scandal, people will start gossiping about Mr. Knight's background, and you wouldn't want that, would you?"

Galatea admitted Joe was right; it wouldn't be good for the child. She said, "I don't want to do like this. From the beginning, I was aiming for a peaceful resolution. It's Marigold's demands that are too much. I want my son back." Joe explained, "I understand. You were very obedient before. I know you are kind-hearted. Mrs. Knight also has her faults in this matter. But now Mrs. Knight is ill. Please be considerate and don't act impulsively. Once you hold a press conference, there's no turning back."

Galatea retorted, "So what do you mean? Are you deliberately stalling me? Or have you already hidden my child?"

It appeared that Alaric hadn't filled Galatea in. They had no intention of hiding Caspian indefinitely, but Alaric was obstructing the process.

"If Mrs. Knight really wanted to do like this, she wouldn't have contacted you, right? Ms. Storm, I understand your feelings, but the child has been with Mrs. Knight since he was little. It's normal for her to be reluctant. If you weren't satisfied with Mrs. Knight's previous suggestions, we can discuss it further."

Galatea was confused. If Marigold didn't want to give her the child, why contact her? If Marigold didn't contact her, it would be hard for her to find Marigold. And if Marigold wanted to take Harry and Elisa, it would be easier to do it without her knowing. Why contact her?

So Marigold demanded that she leave Arizona. Marigold said she was worried about affecting her son's marriage, but if Marigold didn't contact her, she wouldn't even know, right? What kind of logic was this? What was Marigold planning?

Galatea questioned, "Discuss further? You're just stalling me, aren't you?"

Joe replied, "Don't worry, we won't. Besides, Mr. Knight already knows about this. If Mrs. Knight doesn't talk to you, he will."

Since Alaric would definitely talk to Galatea, Joe didn't need to waste words. They would have to speak face-to-face eventually. "Mr. Knight?" Galatea was puzzled.

Was that her husband? He wants to talk to her? So sudden!

She wasn't prepared at all.

Just as Galatea was about to say something, her phone rang again. It was Alaric, and Joe had already hung up.

Galatea had to answer Alaric's call. Alaric asked first, "Did you call me earlier?"

"Yes, Alaric, when are you coming back?" Galatea felt very uneasy now. Only with Alaric by her side did she feel secure.

"I might be back late tonight. Eat dinner and go to bed early. Don't wait for me," Alaric said.

Was he coming back late?

"Did something happen? You looked off today," Galatea asked hastily.

"No." Alaric didn't want to tell Galatea about such cruel matters, so he brushed it off, "I'll tell you when I get back. Be good." "Okay." Galatea had to hang up.

Alaric checked his phone. There were several missed calls, all from Cormac.
