Chapter 458 Did You Hit Her?


Because of Mia, Alaric had been kicking himself all day. He'd pulled every string he could, but after a whole day, still nothing.

Stellan had gone to the office and hadn't come back. He was feeling antsy, so he parked himself in front of the computer, watching the surveillance footage from Far East International, hoping to clear his head. Out of nowhere, he stumbled upon quite the scene.

But because of the camera angle, Alaric could only see their backs. He couldn't catch their exact words, but he could see from their body language that Ambrose and Stuart had a major falling out. Good, let them tear each other apart; the Vale family was on its way down. Fall, what a perfect season for a downfall.

Alaric then saw on the footage that a bunch of people were respectfully moving all of Ambrose's stuff back into the office. After that, Stuart left, and Tommy was helping Ambrose settle in. Alaric was baffled by Tommy's protective stance towards Ambrose. Who the heck was Tommy, and what was he up to now?

After mulling it over and getting nowhere, Alaric checked the time. It was already dark outside. The three had boxing class, and their late return had made him lose track of time. Alaric thought, 'It's so late, and Stellan still isn't back? She must still be mad.'

He then called Stellan, but she hung up on him.

Alaric thought for a moment and then called Cormac. Given the situation and the fact that it was already dark, he was worried about Stellan being alone at the office.

"A call at this hour can only mean trouble. Just spill it," Cormac, knowing Alaric's ways, said.

"Yeah, there's something. How's Rowena doing now?"

"Rowena's stable. All the indicators are normal, just the usual injections and treatments," Cormac replied bluntly. "Cut the fake concern and get to the point."
