Chapter 224 You Don't Need to Be Afraid


Galatea got what Alaric was saying, and it really touched her how thoughtful he was.

She nodded. "Alright. From now on, I'll go back to being Stellan Storm."

A fake name was still a fake name. Her real name was Stellan Storm, and she never forgot it nor dared to.

Starting today, she'd be Stellan again, living under her true identity.

"But I'm used to calling you Galatea, so I won't change that," Alaric said.

"Okay," Stellan smiled and nodded. "You can keep calling me Galatea. I like hearing it."

Alaric patted her head affectionately and said, "And I want to change Harry and Elisa's names."

"No problem. Back then, I didn't know who you were, so I let Harry and Elisa take the surname Storm. When you handle the paperwork, you can change their names too. Rook Knight and Zoe Knight sound great." Alaric suggested, "That's not what I meant. I have an idea. One kid takes my last name, one takes yours, and another takes the last name, Hartley." "What?" Stellan was puzzled.

"Even though Galatea Hartley was a fake name, it's been with you for years and is a memory worth cherishing. One named Caspian Knight, one named Rook Storm, and one named Zoe Hartley. Isn't that special?" Stellan was really surprised.

"Isn't it good? Nowadays, who says kids have to take their father's last name? We're wealthy and have three kids. It's boring if they all have the last name Knight."

Alaric really had some ideas.

Stellan said, "But your mom is very traditional. For her, having children is all about carrying on the family name. Even if we had ten kids, she wouldn't allow any of them not to have the last name Knight."

Alaric explained, "That's exactly why we need to break this old tradition. I raised Caspian, so it's okay if he takes my last name Knight. You raised Harry and Elisa. I should be grateful as their dad. It's reasonable for Harry and Elisa to take your last name."
