Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 435 I'm Going to Be a Dad

Whenever Stellan heard the name Marigold, it felt like a punch to the gut. She really regretted that impulsive decision to rush to Marigold's birthday party back then.

Before, whenever Stellan and Marigold had a spat, Alaric always had Stellan's back. But now, with Marigold gone and Stellan feeling partly to blame, Alaric must be holding some serious grudges, right? Stellan looked at her kids, her face all serious. "What else did your dad say then?" she asked.

Caspian looked worried. "Not much, he just kept calling for Grandma. He seemed really upset and in pain. No matter how much we called him, he didn't respond. It freaked us out."

Stellan put down her fork and turned to Caspian, Harry, and Elisa. "I can't dodge the blame for your grandma's death. I can't face your dad and talk about it directly. If he brings it up with you, you need to comfort him, okay? Losing a mom is never easy, got it?"

"Got it, Mom. Don't worry, if Dad talks to us about it, we'll definitely comfort him," Caspian said.

Stellan nodded. "Alright, let's eat."

After dinner with Caspian, Harry, and Elisa, Stellan took a quick shower and headed back to the bedroom. Alaric was still asleep. She slipped into bed next to him, trying to be super quiet, but still woke him up.

"Finished eating?" Alaric asked, his voice soft in the dim light.

"Yeah," Stellan replied. "Aren't you gonna eat tonight?"

"No, I'm not hungry," Alaric said, pausing before asking, "Does Galatea have any meds that can help me sleep without dreams?"
