The woman he adored like a precious gemstone, he wouldn't let anyone cast a shadow over her!

Hertha's designs were splendid. He went all out for Ethan's company, snapping up all of Hertha's designs. And the final products? He carried them in his pocket, always close to his heart!

Ethan and Richard, sensing things getting out of hand, knew Alaric was seriously pissed.

Richard rushed to pull Alaric away, trying to calm him down, "Alaric, man, don't lose it. We can talk this out."
