Chapter 360 Won't That Make Me a Laughingstock?


Seeing Stellan all fired up, Alaric quickly pulled her into a hug and said, "Galatea, chill out. I swear, I wasn't trying to keep stuff from you. I'm not being stubborn; my body's really doing fine." "You want me to just veg out at home all day, but I can't sit still. I'm just digging up some info; it's no biggie."

Stellan shot back, "So I was right? You're really poking around the Storm Family case?"

Alaric nodded. "Yeah, pretty much. I've got some evidence and put in for a retrial. Once it's greenlit, we can dive into the investigation."

Stellan was floored. 'Evidence already? We have been at it forever with zilch. How is that even possible?'

Alaric looked at her. "Trust me, soon your dad's name will be cleared, and you can finally chill."

"Alaric, what do you want me to say?" Stellan was at a loss. "Should I be touched by what you've done or pissed that you ignored the doc's orders?"

Alaric said, "I don't need your thanks. I'm your husband; it's my job. As for the doc's orders, my bad, but I promise I'll look after myself."

Stellan was speechless. Alaric kissed her cheek and said, "Alright, Galatea, don't be mad. Let's go pick up the kids, yeah?"

With Cormac back, Stellan could relax a bit and get home earlier.

"Okay, let's go." Stellan quickly added, "But don't mention any of this to them."
