Chapter 15 The First Step of the Plan Completed with Finesse


The following morning, Harry awoke on Caspian's plush king-size bed, feeling utterly refreshed.

"Caspian, time to take your medicine," Alaric reminded him. He was worried because Caspian had skipped his medication all day yesterday and feared he might relapse.

"Dad, what the heck is wrong with me?" Harry was also extremely curious. What kind of illness could Caspian have?

"It's just a cold. You'll be fine once you take the medicine," Alaric mentioned, preferring not to bring up the past now that Caspian had amnesia.

"Dad, do I look sick to you? I'm bursting with energy." Harry flexed his muscles to make a point, "I'm all better now; no need for medicine, Dad."

"Ever since Caspian lost his memory, he's like a completely different person-lively and talkative. Maybe he truly is cured?" Alaric pondered. 'Or maybe, if Orion isn't around, there's no chance of an episode?' "All right," Since Caspian seemed fine, Alaric didn't insist on the medicine, "Caspian, let's have breakfast first."

Having made up his mind just now, Alaric watched his child head off to breakfast and decided to give Orion a call.

"Hey, Alaric, can I come back now?" Orion had calmed down and felt regretful. She knew if she had just endured a little longer, things would have been fine, yet the sight of that despicable brat made her lose control. Given another chance, she was determined to seize it properly!

"I've decided to end our relationship from this moment on!" Alaric's voice was resolute.

Orion's body went limp as she heard his words, "End our relationship? What do
