Chapter 63 Counterattack Against the Jerk


"Harry, what's going on with Mom? Is this how she looks coming back from a trip? Something seems off."

As soon as Galatea entered the house, she was drenched from head to toe. She explained how it had started raining at the airport, and she hadn't brought an umbrella. Worst of all, she'd lost her bag and even the taxi fare had to be paid by Mia, who had gone downstairs.

Plus, she looked extremely tired. Normally, if she got wet, she would definitely take a shower, but this time, she just wiped herself off with a towel and went to bed.

It didn't look at all like she had just returned from a trip!

Harry knew that Galatea had just been discharged from the hospital. Although the state one is in after being discharged is certainly different from returning from a trip, this was way too miserable! Where was Alaric? Hadn't he been staying at the hospital with her?

How could he let her come home by herself in the rain on the day of her discharge?

Unforgivable jerk!

Harry was already angry with Alaric after overhearing their conversation last time, and now he was even angrier. To think Alaric would treat his mother like this!

With that thought, Harry grabbed his phone, intending to call Caspian. He wanted to give Alaric a piece of his mind through Caspian. But just as he dialed the number, he immediately hung up.

No, he couldn't do it. The saying went that one should not bite the hand that feeds. He had just asked Caspian for his password and spent his money. He didn't have the nerve to lash out at him now! "Harry, did you hear what I said?" Elisa approached him, puzzled. "What are you doing? Why do you pick up the phone to make a call and then change your mind?"

"What do you think I'm doing?" Harry felt utterly defeated. "Elisa Storm, I've lost all my dignity because of you!"

"What?" Elisa was completely bemused. "How did we get to this extreme? I don't understand."

"With your brain, what could you understand?" Harry chided her. "Stop jumping to conclusions. Traveling around can be exhausting. Let mom rest without disturbance." After finishing his words, Harry locked himself in the bathroom, staring at Caspian's number on his phone for a long time before finally making the call.

"Hello, Harry." Caspian had always been rather aloof, but ever since he found out his dad had done something wrong, his attitude toward Harry had taken on a submissive edge.
