Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 371 Am I Still the Way You Like?

Stellan heard this and said, "Chill out, man. Tommy's cool. Josep vouched for him, and we had dinner with him last night. Dude's humble and polite, and even Alaric likes him."

"That's 'cause Alaric doesn't know about that creepy letter you got. If he did, he'd be more paranoid than anyone. I'm not being a worrywart, but we gotta keep an eye on him," Cormac said.

"Alright, alright, Cormac, you're right. We gotta be extra careful right now. Don't sweat it, I won't give him any big jobs. I'll have him tag along with Silas for now, and once we dig up more on him, I'll figure out what's next," Stellan said. "Better safe than sorry," Cormac nodded. "Okay, if that's all, I'm gonna bounce."

"Hold up, Cormac," Stellan called out.

Cormac turned, "What's up?"

"We're done with work talk, let's get personal," Stellan sighed. "Same old story. You've been shacking up with Rowena for a while now, why haven't you made it official? Are you trying to drive us nuts?" Cormac chuckled, "Why's everyone in such a rush?"

"Yeah, everyone but you," Stellan pressed. "Cormac, stop being so stubborn. I get it, you're scared of holding Rowena back. But she's a grown woman. She made her choice after thinking it through. You still dig her, but you're dragging your feet. That's what's really holding her back."

Cormac sighed, "I know, I've heard this a million times."

Stellan said, "Get back together, and I won't bug you about it again."

Cormac rolled his eyes, "Alright, I'll think about it. Just hope this is the last time you nag me."

Stellan smirked, "That's on you, buddy."
