The moment Georgia heard that first word from Alaric, her heart skipped a beat, knowing it was him. She had been eagerly anticipating this moment, finally getting to meet Alaric face-to-face.

But her excitement quickly turned to disappointment when his first concern was for Hertha, not even his own child. The anticipation that filled Georgia's heart was replaced with an aching void upon hearing Alaric's words. She felt dizzy with anger, immediately turning her frustration towards Hertha.
