Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 16 She's Truly Being Tricked by Alaric

Galatea arrived at Silver Star Hotel deep in thought. Alaric had dismissed her, but would Galen really offer her another chance?

Checking her call log, she indeed found a landline number. She was tempted to call back for confirmation but decided against it. Why would her child lie?

Room 8808 was the presidential suite on the top floor. The kind of person who could afford such a room might also be the type who'd want to avoid the hospital and request a confidential medical visit. Approaching the door, she was about to knock when it suddenly swung open. Was this arranged for her convenience? It was a thoughtful touch.

Galatea entered silently, just as Harry had recently tricked Alaric into taking a shower, hiding behind the door. As she stepped inside, Harry quietly slipped out and closed the door behind her.

Galatea paused for a moment when she heard the door shut but didn't dwell on it.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Galatea from Serenity Heights Medical Center. Did you call for a doctor?" The presidential suite was enormous, and she couldn't see anyone in the vast foyer. She spoke out of courtesy but was met with no response. Harry, having left the room, immediately called Caspian with excitement: "It's about to work out!"

There was a long silence from Caspian.

"Caspian, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" Harry, anxious without a reply, pressed for an answer.

"Is it really okay to deceive Mom like this? She trusts me so much, and she'll be so angry if she finds out." His longing for Galatea's maternal love was profound-what if she got mad, pushed him away, or stopped loving him? "Yeah, I feel a bit guilty. But think about it, we're doing this for their happiness, so they can be together openly. You also want to go home to a place where your mom and dad are waiting, right?" Harry reasoned with him. "Yes," Caspian admitted, his guilt somewhat alleviated by the thought.

"We look so much alike; you want to be my brother, right?" Harry suggested.
