Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 8 The Child Went with Her Again

Galatea was furious at Alaric's attitude.

"Mr. Knight, I'm not sure what misunderstanding there may be between us, but it's rather excessive for you to cost me my job, isn't it?" Galatea did her best to keep her temper in check.

Alaric glanced upstairs, worried that Caspian might hear Galatea's voice. He stepped forward, grasped Galatea's wrist, and roughly dragged her towards the door.

"A woman like you who does vile things and then pretends to be innocent doesn't deserve to be a doctor. Now get out of here!" Thinking of Caspian's wild behavior from the previous day made him want to strangle this woman.

"Care to tell me, Mr. Knight, what I've done to ofeend you?" Galatea had intended to make a genuine apology to regain her position at Serenity Heights Medical Center, but the man's attitude remained as appalling as ever. "Quit playing innocent. Your act doesn't fool me!" At this point, Alaric was dragging her to the door, about to throw her out, but Galatea clung desperately to the doorframe.

"We've never crossed paths before, let alone had any bad blood. What could I possibly have done to repulse you so much? Please explain it to me!" she demanded.

No sooner had Galatea finished speaking than a noise came from upstairs. After yesterday's incident, Alaric was on edge. He shot Liona a quick glance.

Liona rushed back to the bedroom to check; Caspian was still asleep. She locked the bedroom door from the outside.

Seeing Liona's composed demeanor as she descended the stairs, Alaric finally breathed easy and turned to face Galatea.

"I've met plenty of women like you," Alaric said, eyes full of contempt. "Trying to curry favor with my son to climb the social ladder. Nice try, but my kid has a mom, and you don't measure up!" Alaric couldn't fathom why Caspian was fond of Galatea or why he saw her as a mother figure.

Galatea was livid. "Alaric, are you delusional? When have I ever tried to win over your son?" she retorted, finding the accusation absurd. "If you're suffering from a mental disorder, I'd suggest you get to a hospital fast. An early diagnosis means an early recovery."
