Mommy，We Got a Husband
Chapter 105 Stellan, I'm Sorry, I Love You

Galatea spent the entire afternoon looking at this type of storefront, not even having time to eat. In the end, she found a place she really liked.

In the city center, with a large flow of people, she especially liked the store's layout. It had two floors, with the first floor for seeing patients and the second floor converted into a lounge. "Dr. Galatea, do you like this place? Opening a clinic here would be a great business," the real estate agent who was showing her the property asked with a smile.

To be honest, she liked it very much. However, if she showed less enthusiasm, the price negotiation would become easier. So, Galatea played a little trick and reluctantly said: "It's alright. I'm not very satisfied with that balcony, though."

"So, does that mean you want to look at the next property then?"

Galatea really didn't want to look at the next property, but she liked it here.

"Wait for me; I'll take another look and consider it," Galatea deliberately said and then went upstairs again.

As an experienced real estate agent, he could naturally see Galatea's thoughts. He was about to follow her upstairs when his phone rang, and he answered it quickly. Galatea looked at the second floor again and liked it very much. She decided to rent this place.

"How's Dr. Galatea considering it?" the agent asked when he saw her coming downstairs from the second floor.

"I've made up my mind. I'll rent this place. How much is the rent?" Galatea had a rough expectation and prayed that it wouldn't exceed her budget too much. "Three thousand dollars a month."

"Three thousand?!" Galatea wondered if she had misheard. It's three thousand, not thirty thousand?

"Yes, three thousand."

"That's too cheap, isn't it?" Galatea couldn't believe it. "In this location, with such a large space, are you sure it's only three thousand a month?"

"Absolutely." The agent explained, "The owner of this house is very wealthy. His whole family has emigrated overseas. This house is where they started their fortune. They are reluctant to sell it but also worried that it would become abandoned. So they decided to rent it out. As for the rent, it's just a symbolic amount."

After hearing this, Galatea couldn't believe it and asked directly, "If it's such a good deal, wouldn't there be a line of people waiting to rent it? Why did it wait until I came?"

Galatea became more and more skeptical. Could this be a scam or a haunted house?

"Dr. Galatea, it's normal to have such doubts. But the owner of this house is also a peculiar person. He requires that only single women who are starting their businesses can rent it. None of the previous tenants met his requirements, so I didn't bring anyone to see it," the agent explained.

The more Galatea listened, the more mysterious it seemed.

"Dr. Galatea, if you don't believe me, you can talk to the owner yourself. We can sign the rental agreement immediately. And if it turns out to be a haunted house, we promise to compensate you tenfold. You can rest assured," the agent assured her. Was she really this lucky?

To guard against being deceived, Galatea read the rental agreement several times and found no issues. So...

First, she successfully obtained a loan, and now she encountered this cheap, good house.

Did her luck turn around after the fallout with Alaric?

Once she confirmed that the agreement was fine, Galatea signed it and received the keys. After she signed the agreement, the agent immediately made a phone call.

"CEO Ambrose, everything is settled."

Ambrose, on the other end of the phone, asked, "Good. Has she become suspicious?"

"She doubted, but she definitely wouldn't suspect it's yours."

"That's good," Ambrose said as the call ended, then instructed Denny to buy that set of shops.

"Understood."

"And also buy me a house near her shop, where I can see the location."

Alaric could buy a house near Nexus Innovations, or he could buy one near her shop so that he could see her anytime.

"How did your investigation go?" Ambrose asked.

"I'm sorry, CEO Ambrose. It's my fault," Denny quickly apologized and said. "After Storm's Family went bankrupt, Ms. Rook disappeared. Later, people said she was already dead, but no one knows the cause of death. I found out that she spent these years in Country M and only recently returned to Arizona."

No one knows?

Where did she go after he left? What did she experience?

Why does everyone say she's dead? And why did she change her name to Galatea?

She must have gone through unimaginable pain, didn't she?

"By the way, CEO Ambrose, Ms. Stellan has two children now," Denny reported.

"Two children?" Ambrose was shocked.

"Yes." Denny handed Ambrose the photos of Caspian and Elisa. And said, "They are Harry and Elisa, and they attend Arizona Elementary School."

Ambrose looked at the photo and was shocked by the boy. The boy looked so much like Alaric, but...

As far as he knew, Alaric was still in a coma seven years ago, and before that, Stellan had no connection with Alaric. How could these children possibly be Alaric's?

But if the children weren't Alaric's or his, then whose could they be?

"You can leave now."

"Yes." Denny left the office, closing the door softly behind him.

After Denny left, Ambrose took out his phone and opened the album. The album contained only group photos of Stellan and him.

Ambrose clicked on a photo of them. In the picture, Stellan was leaning affectionately against him with a beautiful smile on her face.

Ambrose touched her face on the screen and spoke slowly, "Stellan, I know you must have experienced a lot of pain. It's all my fault. I'm sorry. But I love you..." Then, he closed his eyes and kissed her in the photo, and tears began to flow.

---

A day passed, and Galatea still hadn't come to treat Alaric. Was she really intended to give him the silent treatment?

Alaric felt a surge of excitement as he heard a knock on the door. But he quickly pretended to be serious.

Alaric would ask Galatea to apologize to him first this time.

"Come in."

Alaric replied solemnly, but to his surprise, the person who entered was not Galatea but Cormac.

"Why is it you?" Alaric asked disappointedly.

"Why are you so disappointed to see me? Who did you expect?" Cormac complained when he saw Alaric's face flush with undisguised disdain.

"When did you learn to knock?" Alaric sarcastically commented. In the past, Cormac would push the door directly.

"The Last time I walked into your office directly, I witnessed something. I thought I should be more well-behaved," Cormac replied, looking around for Galatea. Not seeing her, he asked, "Isn't the date Galatea is supposed to treat you? Why isn't she here?"

"What the hell are you doing here? Tell me the reason. Don't waste my time!" Alaric said impatiently.
