Chapter 120 Mrs. Marigold was Very Angry with Alaric's Defence


Alaric knew Mrs. Marigold's temper. He knew that if he got sick and hospitalized, she'd undoubtedly blame Galatea. That was mainly why he lied to her.

He replied, "Mom, please don't get so worked up. As the saying goes, Rome wasn't built in a day. Even God can't cure my illness immediately."

"Even if Galatea can't cure it all at once, she shouldn't be making your condition worse."

Seeing him hospitalized now, Mrs. Marigold would naturally blame the doctor treating him. She was already angry, and Alaric defending her only infuriated her more.

"What about that Galatea? Have her come and see me right away! I want to ask if she can really treat illnesses or if she has ulterior motives!" she angrily said.

Hearing this, Alaric naturally intervened. He and Galatea were currently in a cold war, and they hadn't contacted each other for nearly a week.

He was afraid this would scare Galatea, and most importantly, he didn't want her to know he got hospitalized.

"Mom, just stop it. She's just a doctor; what could she possibly be planning?"

Mrs. Marigold speculated, "Who knows? You have a noble status, and any woman wants to be your wife. Right now, she's still your fiancée in reputation. Isn't that like a phoenix perching on a branch? If she has any ill intentions toward our family's fortune, she could use harm you while disguising as treating you. It's not impossible!"
