Chapter 401 So What Exactly Do You Suspect Him of?


"Did you really can Tommy?" Cormac was floored when he rolled into the office today.

Alaric just nodded. "Yep."

"Why?" Cormac was scratching his head. "Isn't he Josep's nephew? And Josep saved your life, man. Isn't it kinda messed up to fire him?" "I get it," Alaric sighed. "Because he's Josep's nephew, even if Tommy screwed up big time, I should cut him some slack for Josep's sake." Cormac was even more baffled. "Then why'd you boot him? From what I know, the dude's a workhorse. No big screw-ups, not even tiny ones." Alaric nodded. "Yeah, he's a hard worker, always eager to learn, and even volunteers for overtime. From a boss's view, he's the perfect employee." Cormac, still puzzled, asked, "Then why the hell did you fire him if he's so good?"

"Ever had any doubts about him?" Alaric shot back. "Think about that threatening letter. We don't even know who our enemy is, and Tommy just pops up outta nowhere, right by our side. Even though he's Josep's nephew, they haven't talked in years. Besides a bit of blood relation, he's basically a stranger."

"I know Josep's gonna be pissed, and even Galatea won't be thrilled, but because of Josep, I had to act first and explain later."

"If I had asked for their opinions first, I wouldn't have been able to fire him. I've already had Silas buy some gifts, and I'm planning to visit Josep tomorrow to apologize."

"So, what exactly do you think he's up to?" Cormac asked.

Alaric explained, "You might think I'm paranoid, but when stuff like this keeps happening, it's not just a coincidence. He's way too interested in Galatea, or maybe he's trying to mess things up between me and her. He's had physical contact with her twice, and he uses a photo of her as his computer wallpaper..
