Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 495: Gillian Emberlyn

The suitcase was neatly packed with his clothes, even including warm cotton clothes, and his daily necessities.

It was clear that a lot of care had been put into it. After seeing it, Alaric closed the suitcase again and muttered to himself, 'If you had just called me, I would have come back obediently. How could I be so stubborn?'

No matter how angry he was, after such a long cold war, his emotions had faded.

Not wanting to think about it anymore, Alaric went to the bathroom to take a shower, then turned off the lights and went to bed. But tonight, Stellan couldn't sleep.

To be precise, ever since she saw Ambrose get shot in front of her and witnessed the footage of Brennan's fall, she hadn't been able to sleep, especially after Rowena left.

In her bedroom alone, she didn't dare to turn off the lights. When the surroundings went dark, those terrifying scenes would immediately appear before her eyes. She didn't dare to sleep; as soon as she closed her eyes, it was a nightmare.

Previously, with Alaric around, just being close to him made her feel particularly at ease. After this incident, she knew Alaric was especially angry with her.

But Alaric never thought that she was also particularly regretful and scared, did he? Now Mia, Caspian, Harry, and Elisa were all not around. Although there were other servants at home, there was no one she could talk to.

'Alaric, are you really not planning to come back? Are you really going to stay in a hotel during this cold war and not come home?' Stellan silently asked Alaric in her heart.

Because Stellan really could't sleep, she took the sleeping pills that Alaric had used before. She had always had good sleep quality and never thought she would one day need sleeping pills.

The next day, Stellan and Alaric were in sync; the first thing they did was pick up their phones, but the result was the same nothing.

Then they each went to work, Stellan to the construction site, and Alaric to Nexus Innovations.

Alaric was really worried about not seeing Stellan for the past two days. He thought about taking out his phone to call someone at the construction site, but just as he took out his phone, Silas came over and respectfully reported, "Mr. Knight, a lady is here to see you. She arrived early this morning."
