Mommy,We Got a Husband -
Chapter 279 She Might Die in Childbirth If She Got Pregnant Again
Alaric and Stellan left the company with their three children. In the car, Stellan asked in surprise, "What did you do to persuade Cormac to come over?"
"I didn't do anything. This time, he came on his own, which surprised me too," Alaric admitted.
"Cormac came on his own?" Stellan was also surprised and speculated, "It must be for that girl named Aurora, right?"
"Yes, he said Aurora wants to learn a special skill, which requires a lot of money," Alaric said.
"Cormac is really kind." Stellan couldn't help but say. "In this regard, he's just like Ravenna, completely different from Griffon. The Nash family has gone through such a change, and Cormac went from being a wealthy young man to having nothing. Even though Cormac is struggling himself, he still helps a girl he doesn't even know before. It's really rare and valuable."
"That's right," Alaric said. "But don't worry. Everything will be fine."
"Daddy is right. Good people will eventually get rich!" Before Stellan could respond, Elisa jumped in.
"You little money-grubber. All you think about is money," Stellan said affectionately.
"People who don't love money are boring," Elisa sighed and said. "When I was poor, I always thought about how to get rich. Now that I suddenly have a rich dad and will inherit so much wealth, I feel like I have no goals to strive for." "Elisa, that's not true," Alaric corrected her. "Parents' money is their money; it has nothing to do with you. You're just lucky to be born into a wealthy family, luckier than most kids. But whether you can make the most of this luck depends on you. Parents will grow old and can't always make money for you. If you don't work hard, the wealth won't last. Understand?"
"I understand." Elisa nodded, half-understanding, and then optimistically added, "But if I really end up poor when I grow up, Caspian will take care of me."
"Yes, my money is yours. I'll work hard," Caspian immediately said.
Harry clapped happily and said, "Daddy, Mommy, remember what they said. Don't dismiss it just because they're young. Caspian, you better stay single forever and take care of Elisa." "I'm willing to," Caspian said.
"I'm very willing to see that too," Harry said happily. "You two can rely on each other. When I grow up, I'll work hard and make money for my future wife."
"That's assuming you can find a wife," Caspian teased mercilessly, "But it's hard given your unlikable personality and your knack for saying annoying things."
"You think you're any better? Forget about finding a girlfriend; you'll have a hard time finding friends," Harry retorted.
"I took after Daddy's personality. If Daddy can marry such a good wife like Mommy, why can't I?" Caspian said.
Alaric was suddenly speechless. 'Is Caspian complimenting Alaric or insulting him?' she wondered.
"Stop it. No more arguing. What do you want to eat?" Alaric asked.
"Meat!" Elisa answered decisively.
"Alright, let's go eat meat then,"
So Alaric and Stellan took Caspian, Harry, and Elisa out for dinner, while Marigold was waiting at the Knight mansion.
After meeting Cormac, Marigold was furious. Marigold was set on Alaric firing Cormac, regardless of Alaric's feelings on the matter. She waited a long time, but they still hadn't returned.
"It's so late! Why aren't they back yet? Are they usually this late?" Marigold asked Liona angrily.
"Usually not," Liona replied, scared by Marigold's attitude.
"This is so inappropriate. Alaric used to have a strict routine, just working and resting. Since marrying Stellan, he's lost all principles, and his life has become so chaotic!"
After complaining, Marigold checked the time again and decided not to wait. Joe quickly followed her out.
"It's been so long. Has Ambrose come up with a solution? If this continues, forget about divorce; Alaric and Stellan even will have another child soon." Marigold was really agitated and couldn't stay calm. "I need to call Ambrose and remind him."
When Ambrose's phone rang, Todd and Bill were with him. Seeing it was Marigold, Ambrose immediately rejected the call.
"Busy with work now?" Todd said sarcastically. "I heard that after your casino project ended, many developers approached you for cooperation."
"Just lucky. Once you successfully acquires the jewelry company, the profits will be far beyond mine," Ambrose flattered.
"Glad that you know your place," Todd said, then asked, "Is Cormac you found reliable?" Todd asked.
"Don't worry, Todd. He's absolutely reliable," Ambrose replied.
"Tell him I'm not a kind person. If he fails, Aurora will disappear from this world, and he won't even find her body," Todd continued.
"I've told him everything. He will give us a satisfactory outcome," Ambrose said confidently.
"If you really get this done, I'll speak well of you to Dad," Todd said.
"Thank you, Todd," Ambrose said insincerely.
Marigold, who had been hung up on, was furious. Ambrose dared to hang up on her? She was about to call again, but Joe stopped her. "Mrs. Knight, since he screened it just now, he won't answer if you call again."
"Ambrose is unreliable. He always talks big but does nothing!" Marigold said angrily. "I'm too passive now. I raised Alaric with so much effort, and Stellan took him away. My three precious grandchildren come over every weekend, but they listen to Stellan. Except for Elisa, who talks to me a bit, Caspian and Harry are cold to me, like I'm their enemy. Who knows what bad things Stellan says about me in front of them? Waht a wretched woman! She had a difficult labor back then; how did she survive? If she had died in childbirth, there wouldn't be so many problems now."
Talking about dying in childbirth, Joe suddenly thought of something and asked, "Mrs. Knight, you said if this continues, they won't divorce, and they'll have another child?"
"Stellan has Alaric wrapped around her finger. They're so intimate; pregnancy is just a matter of time," Marigold said.
"If it's just a matter of time, won't she have a chance to die in childbirth?" Joe suggested.
