Mommy,We Got a Husband -
Chapter 327 You're Not Even Worthy to Shine His Shoes
Send him to prison and sentence him to death?
"Do you hate me so much that you wish I were dead?" Upon hearing Stellan's words, Ambrose shrank back, his heart aching.
Ambrose knew Stellan hated him, but he didn't expect her hatred to reach that point.
"After all the evil you've committed, isn't death what you deserve?" Stellan's tone was resolute.
Ambrose took a sharp breath, seemingly in pain, and then said, "Fine, Stellan. I'm okay with you hating me, and back then, if you believed I was no match for Alaric, I would have accepted it. But now? He's just a living dead, but you still want to stay with him?"
Hearing this, Stellan gave Ambrose a hard slap, catching him off guard and leaving him stunned.
She said, "This slap is a warning. Do not dare mention Alaric's name again. You are unworthy to even speak of him, let alone compare yourself to him. You're not even worthy to shine his shoes."
Stellan's words were another slap to Ambrose's dignity. She said he wasn't worthy to shine Alaric's shoes!
"You love him that much?" Ambrose asked.
"That's none of your business!" Stellan said, opening the car door to get in.
Ambrose held the door and looked at her, asking, "Don't you really want to know the truth about Brennan's death?"
As the question was repeated, Stellan's heart fluttered momentarily, but she quickly regained her composure and replied, "I'll find out. You don't need to worry about it."
Ambrose said, "You've been investigating for so long. What have you found? Didn't you say Alaric would help you? What has he found? Still nothing, right?
Stellan, I'm not trying to scare you. If you want to uncover the truth from back then, you won't find anything without my help. Don't you want the truth to come out? Do you really want Brennan to continue being wronged?"
Stellan didn't hesitate to deliver another slap again after hearing that. "You're not worthy to mention my father either! Ambrose, stop threatening me with this. If my father knew, he would never agree to me compromising and ruining my happiness for the truth.
And I always believe that the truth is unyielding. It might be suppressed for a time, but it will eventually come to light. Stop using this to threaten me; I won't fall for it.
This is the last time we'll meet alone. The next time we will meet in court when you're being sentenced as the defendant!"
After saying this, Stellan shook off Ambrose's hand, got into the car, and instructed the driver, "Drive!"
Ambrose didn't expect this outcome. Frustration welled up within him, causing him to clench his fists tightly. Overwhelmed, he struck the car in frustration, replaying Stellan's words repeatedly in his mind.
Stellan said he wasn't even worthy to shine Alaric's shoes. Alaric was just a living dead now, and Ambrose still couldn't compare to him. Stellan would rather stay with a living dead for the rest of her life than be with him.
He told himself, "Stellan, I won't give up. I've already secured the position of director at Far East International. How could I give up on you? You will be mine sooner or later!"
Perhaps after going through so much, Stellan felt more at ease and less anxious than before.
Just as she was about to reach the Knight mansion, Stellan's phone rang. It was Josep calling. She quickly answered, "Hello, Josep."
"Galatea, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Josep said in a playful tone.
Good news and bad news?
"Let's hear the bad news first," Stellan replied.
"I received a call from the medical school. The team's research on that special drug has failed again, and they plan to abandon the project completely," Josep said. Abandon it completely?
They wouldn't develop that special drug anymore and would just give up?
That really was terrible news.
"And the good news?" Stellan asked quickly.
"The good news is that in recent days, I've had discussions with medical experts here and have come up with a new approach. We plan to develop a new drug, and this time we have an 80% chance of success.
Now, the medical school in Country M has its own team leaders, so I don't necessarily need to go back. Since I'm back in the country, I want to exchange ideas with the medical experts here.
I'll settle down first, and then you can be my assistant. I'll personally treat Alaric. I can't guarantee a full recovery, but I can ensure his body reaches its best possible state."
Hearing this, Stellan couldn't contain her joy. She became incredibly excited and exclaimed,. "You will stay here to treat Alaric? Josep, thank you so much! Thank you!"
"After years of just doing medical research, I want to focus more on clinical work. Treating Alaric is just a side task," Josep said.
"Whether it's intentional or incidental, you're a benefactor for treating Alaric." Stellan was so happy that she could already envision the day Alaric fully recovered. "You plan to stay in Arizona for a while. Staying in a hotel isn't convenient. I'll find you a comfortable house,"
"Alright, I'll leave the housing issue to you," Josep said.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure you're satisfied," Stellan replied.
After hanging up, Stellan immediately instructed the driver to change direction. She didn't want to delegate finding a house for Josep to her assistant; she wanted to do it herself.
So, Stellan visited several well-located properties and finally chose a duplex with a yard.
The architectural style was similar to that of Country M, and the environment was excellent. Each small yard was independently spaced and very quiet. Josep would definitely like it. Due to her house-hunting activities, Stellan arrived home much later than usual. As she entered the living room, Mia asked, "Stellan, why are you back so late today?"
"I went to look at houses," Stellan said as she ran upstairs. "Mia, don't bother with dinner for me tonight."
Mia rubbed her eyes, a bit dazed. 'Do I see it right? Stellan seems to be in a good mood.' she thought.
Since Alaric fell into a coma, Stellan had always been worried. What was going on today?
Caspian, Harry, and Elisa were equally puzzled. Seeing Stellan come back so happy, Harry couldn't help but feel a bit scared and asked, "Mommy, does your extreme grief turn to joy?"
"Yeah, Mommy, don't scare us," Elisa added. "With Daddy like this, the three of us are already worried. Don't get sick too, or we'll be so sad and tired."
Seeing the worried expressions of Caspian, Harry, and Elisa, Stellan couldn't help but laugh. She affectionately caressed Elisa's face and remarked, "Elisa, you're so cute. Your little face is so adorable!" Stellan kept rubbing Elisa's little face, and Caspian and Harry were stunned.
Caspian carefully tugged at Stellan's clothes and said, "Mommy, we know you're worried about Daddy and under a lot of stress. If you want to cry, just cry. Don't be like this; it's creepy."
