Chapter 194 I Will Always Support You, No Matter Who Your Opponent Is.

After meeting with Galatea today, Marigold felt uneasy. If Stellan hadn't been with Alaric all this time, her plan would have worked perfectly. But they spent so much time together that Marigold was genuinely afraid.

Galatea said, "Your mother is calling."

Alaric had almost finished his meal by now, so Galatea tidied up and went out with the dishes. After she left, Alaric answered the phone. "Hello."

"Alaric!" As soon as Alaric spoke, Marigold cried on the phone as if she was so uncomfortable. "Hurry back home and see me. I had a sudden heart attack today, luckily I was rescued in time. Otherwise... you ungrateful child, always thinking about work, now living in the company, completely neglecting me."

Marigold had to separate Alaric and Galatea first. She had to drag Alaric away from Galatea after she left Arizona. The only way she could think of was to pretend to be sick.

"Are you okay now?" Alaric knew Marigold's words were false, so he could only ask casually.

"Do you think I'm okay?" Marigold, hearing his calm tone, asked angrily, "Hurry back, do you hear me?"

Alaric could know Marigold's intention for him to come back at this moment. So he asked indirectly, "Are you not satisfied with the woman who gave birth to me years ago and with Galatea now, right?"

Marigold felt a bit guilty when Alaric suddenly asked this question. "I talked about my health condition; why are you asking me this out of the blue?"

Alaric said, "Just a casual question, I hope you answer truthfully."

Realizing that Alaric probably didn't know that Galatea was the mother of his child, Marigold answered truthfully, "Yes, I'm not satisfied!"

Alaric asked, "Why?"

"Why? I've told you, the woman seven years ago agreed to have your child for money. A woman who can sell herself for money, why wouldn't I be dissatisfied? And Galatea, she approached you for money, too. Don't be naive, Alaric; there are plenty of women in the world. With your conditions, you can find any kind of woman. Why do you have to dig through the trash?"

From seven years ago to now, from Stellan to Galatea, Marigold was never pleased.

After today's meeting, she felt she had completely seen through Galatea. She was just a despicable woman who deliberately seduced Alaric for the Knight family's money!

Alaric continued, "If I must marry her?"

Marigold shouted, "Marry her? Alaric, are you trying to kill me? I told you, I had a heart attack today, I almost died. As a son, not only are you not worried about my health, but now you want to make me angry for Galatea. Are you not afraid of killing me, Alaric?"

Alaric said, "Mom, do you want our relationship to be like Griffon and Cormac's?"

"What did you say?" Marigold's heart ached at these words. Cormac had left home for years because of a woman, and now he treated Griffon like an enemy.

Marigold yelled, "Alaric, are you threatening me!"

Alaric said calmly, "I'm just reminding you. Okay, Mom, since you're not feeling well, rest early. I'll come back tomorrow, and we'll talk face-to-face."

It wasn't appropriate to say too much on the phone. Tomorrow he would return to the Knight family to have a serious conversation with Marigold. Galatea returned to the lounge and could tell from Alaric's expression that he had argued with his mother again.

She asked, "Argue with your mom again?"

Definitely because of her.

"Generation gap, we can't communicate." Alaric had wanted to tell Galatea everything, but after the call with Marigold, he changed his mind.

He needed to have a serious talk with Marigold first, to see her reaction when she knew he knew everything. He wanted to create a completely safe environment before telling Galatea. During this process, he wouldn't let Galatea make any mistakes.

"Galatea, come here," Alaric said to Galatea.

Galatea was also in turmoil now. If she had a shoulder to lean on, her heart would be much calmer.

So she lightly climbed onto the bed and leaned into Alaric's arms. Alaric turned to her and said. "Galatea, what I'm about to tell you next is very serious and important. You must listen carefully." Seeing Alaric's serious expression, Galatea felt a bit nervous. Alaric had something important to tell her. Galatea listened attentively.

Alaric said, "Galatea, you said you wanted to start a new life from Stellan Storm to Galatea, as if you were reborn. When you were in the Storm family, bankrupt and in debt, you could be weak and submissive back then. But now that you've been reborn, you can't be like that anymore. You are the new Galatea, strong and brave. No matter what happens, even if faced with tyranny, you can't be weak anymore, let alone compromise. As long as you think it's right, do it your way. Those who try to bully you, fight back however you see fit. I will always support you, no matter who your opponent is."

Alaric continued, "And most importantly, the woman I have chosen will never change in this lifetime. As long as you don't change your mind, no matter who tries to make you leave me, by whatever means, you must not agree. Because if you do, even if there's an outcome you think is a win-win, it will only make me suffer. If someone makes you choose between me and someone you think is more important, tell them you want both, because whatever you want, I will make sure you get it."

Alaric said these words because of the lessons learned from Cormac and Rowena Blaire. Marigold, being so stubborn, would handle things similarly to Griffon.

He would protect Galatea, but he couldn't be with her all day. There would inevitably be opportunities for Galatea and Marigold to meet alone.

To prevent Galatea from becoming another Rowena Blaire, besides protecting her, Galatea needed to have a strong inner self.

After hearing these words, Galatea's eyes welled up. Marigold's ultimatum had left her unsure of what to choose.

But Alaric's words suddenly made her clear. She would fight back, strive for herself, win back his son, and definitely marry Alaric!
