Chapter 403 Alaric, You Have Your Day

thought, 'I am unreasonable?'

Alaric said, "Galatea, we've been going at it a lot lately. I don't wanna fight anymore. I'm just trying to talk this out. It's not that I got a beef with him; his actions speak for themselves. Trust me on this."

Stellan sighed and said, "Alaric, I don't wanna fight either. I wanna believe you, but what you just said sounds nuts. Josep's been good to me and even saved your life. This time, Tommy took a hit for me, and his forehead's still messed up." She went on. "It's really not cool to fire him now, especially with Ambrose trying to snatch him up. Just trust me this once and let him come back to Nexus Innovations, okay? If he really does what you think, then you can fire him." Alaric was firm. "I've already fired him. Right or wrong, that's the deal, and I'm not changing it."

Stellan pleaded, "Can you do it as a favor for me?"

"Galatea, it doesn't work that way. Tommy can't stay. No matter what you or Josep say, I'm not letting Tommy come back," Alaric said, standing his ground.

Seeing Alaric's stubbornness, Stellan felt a lump in her chest, super frustrated.

"If Josep hadn't told me, were you just not gonna tell me at all?" Stellan asked.

Alaric shook his head. "Of course not. I was gonna explain it to Josep tomorrow. How could I hide it from you?"

"You always say I don't respect you, but have you ever respected me?" Stellan snapped, then stormed upstairs. Alaric wanted to say something but bit his tongue. He really didn't wanna argue with Stellan anymore, but here they were.

Neither of them touched dinner that night. When Alaric went upstairs to the bedroom, he found the door locked from the inside.
