Chapter 471 Scum like this shouldn't be kept around.


Alaric hadn't anticipated Neil's arrival, and with it, the atmosphere abruptly changed. Instinctively, Alaric looked towards Stellan.

Stellan's face showed no expression, which made Alaric a bit nervous.

Although Neil came uninvited, as the host, Alaric had to warmly welcome him.

"Neil, you came at the right time," Alaric quickly instructed the servant, "Hurry and get a set of tableware for Neil."

"No need," Neil said, "I just saw your press conference today. You said you were officially returning to work, and you looked in good spirits. I happened to have some free time tonight, so I came to see you. It seems you are really recovered, so I'm relieved. You all continue eating; I'll be on my way."

"Neil, since you're here, how can I let you leave?" Alaric quickly stopped Neil, "Tonight, it's just our family of five and Cormac's family, no outsiders. I just recovered and can't drink, and Cormac was just worried about not having someone to drink with."

Cormac quickly added, "I was just worried about not having a drinking buddy. You came at the perfect time."

Cormac had been thinking of going to the police station to find Neil tomorrow, but since he came tonight, he must try to let Neil stay.

Aside from investigating cases, Neil had a fondness for drinking. Upon hearing Cormac's invitation to share a few glasses, he immediately discarded any intention of leaving.

"Alright then, since there's good wine, I'll stay for a few drinks," Neil said.

So Neil sat down at the table, and Alaric quickly introduced him, "Neil, this is Cormac's wife, Rowena, and this is their child, Aurora."

"Officer Neil, hello," Rowena quickly stood up and greeted politely.

Rowena greeted, "Hello."

"Neil, hello," Aurora also greeted politely.

Neil said, "Hello, Aurora."
