Chapter 396 Why Are You Making Decisions on Your Own?


Even though Alaric said he wouldn't, Cormac was still on edge and reminded him, "Dude, don't blow me off and then go snooping around on your own."

Alaric replied, "I won't. Why would I risk my wife and kids' lives when I don't even know who we're up against?"

That seemed to calm Cormac down. Alaric added, "But seriously, don't let Galatea know I have found out about the threatening letter. She'll freak out even more."

"Relax, I won't spill," Cormac said. "And don't pick fights with Galatea. I know you've been in a funk lately, and she's feeling super guilty. Sometimes she gets all anxious and makes dumb decisions. Cut her some slack. You guys have been through too much to let this stuff get between you."

"Quit playing therapist. Just take care of your own wife," Alaric shot back.

"Whatever, man," Cormac retorted. "Talking to you is like talking to a wall. Finish your food and get out."

Alaric gave a wry smile, then dug into his meal. After he was done, he left Cormac's place and headed to the office.

By then, Stellan had also finished breakfast. Alaric had texted her last night, and today she called him.

The phone rang just as Alaric pulled up to Nexus Innovations.

"Galatea," Alaric answered.

"Alaric, you at the office?" Stellan asked.

"Yeah, just got here," he replied.
