Chapter 089 Alaric's Kiss


Chapter 089 Alaric's Kiss

Galatea couldn't believe her eyes at the sight of such a harmonious trio, who seemed just like a real father and his offspring with not a single sign of discord. "Mommy, you've come at a perfect time. Harry and I just had tea with Daddy, and tonight the four of us will eat dinner together," Elisa said to Galatea. "What did you just call him?" Galatea was utterly shocked to hear Elisa calling Alaric 'Daddy'. "You're calling him 'Daddy' now?!"

"Mommy, don't be upset. Elisa said that since you two are getting married soon, she started calling him 'Daddy' early to get used to it," Caspian hurriedly explained. Hearing those words, Galatea really felt like she could explode Elisa's head.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about, young lady?" Galatea fumed.

"I'm not talking nonsense," Elisa retorted confidently. "You adults aren't as honest as us kids. If you're going to get married, just get married. Why hide it?"

"Elisa is right," Alaric chimed in before Galatea could respond. "We, as adults, do indeed have many things to reflect upon."

These three were bantering back and forth to such an extent that Galatea felt like an outsider.

When lunchtime rolled around, Alaric took them to this breathtaking lodge nestled in nature.

Their dining spot was a cool pavilion situated between mountains and waters-the sound of the babbling lake at their feet, willows gracefully draping the banks behind them, the melodic chirping of songbirds in their ears, and the picturesque mountains in the distance. It was truly delightful.

"This place is so beautiful," Elisa exclaimed joyfully. "Daddy, Mommy, this would be perfect for your honeymoon."

"A proper honeymoon would be traveling the world," Caspian asserted. "Coming here would be far too simple for our mom. It's not acceptable!"

"Exactly, a trip around the world!" Elisa quickly agreed.

Galatea was about to say something, but Alaric quickly gave her a look that effectively said 'don't dampen the kids' spirits,' so she held her tongue.
