Chapter 380 "If You're Here to Condole, I Appreciate It. If Not, Get Out."


Cormac: [Go ahead and catch some Z's. We're heading to the Knight Manor today and won't be back for a while.]

Rowena saw Cormac's message and turned to Stellan, "Cormac's off to the Knight Manor with Mr. Knight. Looks like he won't be back until after Marigold's funeral. Stellan, you haven't been sleeping well these past few days either. Get some rest. I'll handle the kids."

Stellan just shook her head, "I can't sleep right now, Rowena. You should go back. I'm good."

"How can I just leave you like this?" Rowena said, pulling Stellan into a hug. "Stellan, I know you're feeling down. If you need to cry, just let it out. No one's here to judge."

Caspian, Harry, and Elisa had been quietly hanging around since they got back, not daring to say a word.

Stellan was feeling awful. After hearing Rowena's words, she couldn't hold it in anymore and started crying.

"I feel so stupid, so incredibly stupid," Stellan said, hating herself. "Why was I so dumb? Why did I lose my mind and run to the Knight Manor as soon as I got the call from the teacher? Alaric was right. I should have told him. I should have let him handle it, but now..."

"It's not your fault. Who could've seen this coming?" Rowena said, patting her shoulder. "Don't overthink it. Things are what they are. Mr. Knight is reasonable; he won't blame you."

Stellan couldn't say anything more. Things were already messed up, and talking about it wouldn't help.

"You three, don't stay up with us. Go get some rest," Rowena told the kids.

"We're not sleeping. We're staying here with Mommy," Elisa said, snuggling into Stellan's arms.
