There He Is Again My Ex Husband by Emily Jenkins

Chapter 1178 You Make Me Proud

Alana knocked at the door. Inside, there came the gentle voice of their father, "Come in."

They looked at each other and both said to themselves that it was only their mother who could pacify their father. Julian got furious with Alaric just now. After Emelia soothed him, they could tell that Julian had calmed down from his voice. Perhaps, this was what people said - "Everybody has their conqueror."

Noticing that Alana and Alaric came in, Emelia then got out of the room. She had mollified his husband, and the rest was the business among the three of them.

Julian felt angry as he saw his son. However, his son was standing in front of him with his baby girl, and thus he couldn't keep looking stony-faced which might frighten his daughter.

Alana spoke first, "Dad, we wish to confess something."

"Have a seat." Julian gestured at the sofa in the study, asking them to sit, while he sat down on the leather chair in front of his desk.

"Alaric, you go first," Julian called his son with whom he was angry.

Alaric who was called froze and began to groan inside. How crafty his father was! Was he putting pressure through psychological warfare?

Actually, Alaric had intended to hide behind his elder sister during the conversation and incidentally state his own will in the end.

It didn't mean that he was a wuss. It was because his father was so angry with him that his father might cavil at whatever he said or did. He feared that it would exasperate his father due to his talking first, which might lead to failed talks tonight. Hence, he intended to sit there, keeping silent and letting Alana speak.

Who knew that his father was such a cunning man who asked him to speak first? At this moment, Alaric's heart shot upwards into his throat.
