Chapter 379 It's Not Your Fault, It's Mine


"I know," Alaric responded, his voice icy after hearing Neil out.

"Alright, man," Neil sighed, giving Alaric's shoulder a heavy pat. "Look, Alaric, you can't bring people back from the dead. My condolences."

What was supposed to be a big bash for a sixtieth birthday turned into a nightmare with someone dying. It was a real downer. Neil was struggling to wrap his head around it, and Alaric was even worse off. Neil, being a cop and all, couldn't stick around. After a few more words to comfort Alaric, he took his team and left.

Once Neil was gone, Stellan glanced nervously at Alaric and said, "There were no witnesses when it happened, Alaric. I can't dodge this. I should go with Officer Neil to the station for questioning, and then..."

"I said I'd handle the witnesses!" Alaric cut her off sharply. "If you go to the station, what about the kids? I said I'd handle it, and I will. Even if you don't trust me, you gotta listen to me." "I..." Stellan choked up. She had never doubted Alaric, not once.

Caspian, Harry, and Elisa clung to her tightly. "Mommy, we don't want the police to take you away. We don't want you to leave us."

Elisa was bawling her eyes out. Stellan quickly picked her up and tried to soothe her, "It's okay, Elisa. Don't be scared. I'm here. The police won't take me away. Be good, don't cry."

"You should take the kids home first," Alaric told Stellan. "I'll stay here and sort things out. Once I'm done, I'll come home."
