Mommy,We Got a Husband -
Chapter 169 I Thought You Both Eloped
Upon hearing Griffon's words, Orion burst into tears instantly.
"I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong, but I can't go back. If time could go back seven years, I would never force you to help me with that kind of thing again. I was wrong."
Griffon was also annoyed. He shouldn't have helped Orion with this confused thing, but at that time, she was really pushed to the brink!
"Stop crying. Even if you cry to death, there's no chance for you to re-choose." Griffon said, "Things have already happened. Your mother is already in the intensive care unit. If you don't want things to get worse, keep your mouth shut. Keep these truths buried deep inside, especially from your brother. Don't let him know."
"Okay." Orion nodded with tears. It had come to this point, she couldn't let Griffon go to jail again, and her future was ruined in an instant.
Cormac didn't sleep all night, staying outside Ravenna's intensive care unit. He was also particularly afraid.
Due to his quarrel with Griffon, he had gone abroad for many years. Even though he had returned now, he rarely went home because he didn't want to see Griffon.
He rarely took care of Ravenna. If something happened to Ravenna, it would be a lifelong regret for him.
As dawn approached, Cormac's phone rang. It was Alaric calling.
"Hello." Cormac answered, dragging out his words wearily.
"How is Ravenna Nash now?"
"Still unconscious."
After Cormac finished speaking, Alaric sighed as well. It was indeed a sudden and hard-to-accept situation. "Did you go to the Nash family yesterday?" Cormac asked.
"Yes."
"What happened?" Something must have happened yesterday to lead to Ravenna's current condition.
"It's hard to explain in a few words. Let's meet in a few days and talk then." Alaric said slowly. "Ravenna Nash was fine when Galatea left yesterday."
"I see."
As Cormac was about to hang up, Alaric hurriedly said, "If there's anything you need help with at the hospital, call me anytime."
"Okay."
Although Alaric had a falling out with the Nash family, it was only with Griffon and Orion. Alaric knew it had nothing to do with Ravenna and Cormac, and he wouldn't hold a grudge against them. Galatea also faintly heard the contents of the call. Like Alaric, she was feeling very upset at the moment.
"Yesterday, Ravenna Nash even said she would attend our wedding. I never expected it to turn out like this."
"Things are unpredictable. No one knows what will come first, tomorrow or the unexpected." Alaric sighed.
Galatea was also feeling down. Alaric hugged her and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her. Galatea managed a weak smile.
"You go have your meal. I'll go for the morning meeting and come find you later."
"Okay," Galatea nodded. When you come back, I'll give you proper treatment. Your health is the most important thing."
Thinking back to Alaric's previous heart attack, Galatea was also worried. She had to treat him quickly. If he had another heart attack, she didn't dare to think about it.
"Alright, please wait me for a moment."
Previously, Alaric could be reckless with his body, but this was not possible anymore. He has Caspian, the Galatea he wants to marry, and Harry and Elisa.
He had to take care of his health to protect them better.
After that, Alaric went for the morning meeting, and Galatea confirmed the medications for the upcoming treatment. When everything was in order, Alaric hadn't finished his meeting yet. Galatea took out her phone and called Harry and Elisa. They were having breakfast and getting ready for school.
"Mom, do you remember you have two children? You seem to have abandoned Harry and me to elope with Alaric." Elisa immediately complained.
Upon hearing Elisa's words, Galatea couldn't help but smile and apologize, "I'm sorry, Elisa. I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to spend with you."
"It's okay, Mom. If you're not here, I'll take care of Elisa." Caspian said sensibly. "You go ahead and do your things. We're fine at home."
Harry was a true young man, showing such responsibility in his words.
"With Harry around, Mom can rest assured." Galatea reminded again, "I'll be very busy in the next few days."
"We're used to it." Elisa said quickly. "Women in love always dislike having others around, especially two children. We understand you. Go ahead and enjoy your love, don't worry about us." Elisa's words made Galatea helpless.
"Alright, finish your breakfast and go to school."
"Yes, Mom."
After hanging up, Elisa couldn't help but say, "They say men prefer beauty over family. Turns out they can also prefer beauty over children. It's rare for Mommy to call and check on us in the midst of her busy schedule. I'm touched." Upon hearing this, Caspian couldn't help but smile indulgently, then patted Elisa's head and said, "Don't worry, I am here, and today after school, I'll buy you a gift. Choose whatever you like."
"Hooray for big brother!"
Seeing Elisa happy, Caspian would be happy, too. After they left the house and got into the car, Caspian took the opportunity when Elisa wasn't paying attention to call Harry, but the call went straight to voicemail. Caspian had been calling Harry these days, but his phone was always switched off. Something must have happened.
It shouldn't be anything serious. If something did happen, it shouldn't be calm.
"Harry, who are you secretly calling?" Elisa immediately leaned over curiously when she saw him hang up. Caspian reflexively hid his phone and said, "No one."
"You're so suspicious. You were secretly making calls in the bathroom before. Do you think I didn't know it?" Caspian had made a call to Harry in the bathroom before, and Elisa had overheard.
"Harry, tell me the truth. Are you hiding something from me?" Elisa leaned in to interrogate.
Caspian wasn't a liar, especially to Elisa. He planned to tell her the truth, and at least they were not strangers.
"Are you secretly dating someone?" Caspian's words weren't finished when Elisa immediately guessed. "You must be. Let me see what my future sister-in-law looks like. I need to see if she's worthy of you." Secretly dating? future sister-in-law?
"Elisa!" Caspian was speechless for the first time with Elisa. "What are you thinking all the time? Be simple!"
Caspian was truly at a loss. Elisa's thoughts were too imaginative.
It was all Harry's fault for being out of touch for so long.
Harry indicated that he didn't want to, but with eyes watching him twenty-four hours a day staring at him, watching him intently.
