Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 495: Gillian Emberlyn The suitcase was neatly packed with his clothes, even including warm cotton clothes, and his daily necessities.

It was clear that a lot of care had been put into it. After seeing it, Alaric closed the suitcase again and muttered to himself, 'If you had just called me, I would have cback obediently. How could I be so stubborn?' No matter how angry he was, after such a long cold war, his emotions had faded.

Not wanting to think about it anymore, Alaric went to the bathroom to take a shower, then turned off the lights and went to bed. But tonight, Stellan couldn't sleep.

To be precise, ever since she saw Ambrose get shot in front of her and witnessed the footage of Brennan's fall, she hadn't been able to sleep, especially after Rowena left.

In her bedroom alone, she didn't dare to turn off the lights. When the surroundings went dark, those terrifying scenes would immediately appear before her eyes. She didn't dare to sleep; as soon as she closed her eyes, it was a nightmare.

Previously, with Alaric around, just being close to him made her feel particularly at ease. After this incident, she knew Alaric was especially angry with her.

But Alaric never thought that she was also particularly regretful and scared, did he? Now Mia, Caspian, Harry, and Elisa were all not around. Although there were other servants at home, there was no one she could talk to.

'Alaric, are you really not planning to cback? Are you really going to stay in a hotel during this cold war and not chome?' Stellan silently asked Alaric in her heart.

Because Stellan really could't sleep, she took the sleeping pills that Alaric had used before. She had always had good sleep quality and never thought she would one day need sleeping pills.

The next day, Stellan and Alaric were in sync; the first thing they did was pick up their phones, but the result was the snothing.

Then they each went to work, Stellan to the construction site, and Alaric to Nexus Innovations.

Alaric was really worried about not seeing Stellan for the past two days. He thought about taking out his phone to call someone at the construction site, but just as he took out his phone, Silas cover and respectfully reported, "Mr. Knight, a lady is here to see you. She arrived early this morning." A lady looking for him? "Alaric!" Hearing the voice, Alaric looked up to see a smiling girl walking towards him.

She was dressed in a fresh, casual outfit, with a slightly playful and energetic high ponytail, giving off a very lively vibe.

Alaric was a bit confused because he didn't remember knowing her at all.

"What? Don't you recognize me?" Seeing Alaric's bewildered look, the girl walked up to him, pouting a bit dejectedly.

"Who are you?" Alaric tried hard to remember but couldn't.

"Alaric, you're still an elite soldier, yet your memory is this bad?" The girl complained emotionally, "I'm Gillian Emberlyn." Gillian? This was Gillian? "You've grown so much?" Alaric was genuinely surprised. "In my memory, you were still a child. You've changed so much; I really didn't recognize you." Gillian was Thomas's daughter.

Thomas had been in the military for many years, married late, and had children even later. He had Gillian when he was quite old so he doted on her immensely.

When Alaric was still in the military, Gillian would visit Thomas during holidays. Thomas was busy, and Alaric, seven years older than her, would take care of Gillian.

"Now you remember?" Gillian spun around in front of him and then asked, "Have I really changed that much?" "Since I retired, I haven't seen you. How many years has it been? You've changed a lot; I definitely wouldn't recognize you." Alaric asked, "Did you cto Arizona with Mr. Emberlyn?" Lost in the world of this story?

I just graduated with my master's and thought I hadn't been to Arizona in a long time, so I calong." "Graduated with a master's? That's great, keep it up." "Trying to follow your example," Gillian smiled, looking at him. "So, do I look prettier than when I was a kid?" "Of course, now you're a standard beauty." "We haven't seen each other for so many years. Now that I'm in your turf, aren't you going to treatto a good meal?" Gillian asked.

"Mr. Emberlyn said he was going to meet sfriends and would cback to catch up withafterward. We'll have a meal together then." Gillian pouted unhappily, "Now that you're a CEO, you're so stingy? You won't even treatto a meal alone." "Of course, I can treat you to a meal, but having a meal alone with a married man might not be good for your reputation." Alaric explained.

A married man? "I heard from my dad that you got married." "Not only did I get married, but my three kids are also in elementary school," Alaric said. "I'll introduce you to them another day." Gillian pouted slightly and then asked, "I heard she's a doctor?" "Yes, a very outstanding doctor at the Institute of Medical Pioneers. Impressive, right?" Lost in the world of this story? Make sure you're on Ne5sto catch every twist and turn. The next chapter awaits, exclusively on our site. Dive in now! Gillian reluctantly praised, "Impressive. Anyone who can win you over must be impressive." "I'm a bit busy today. I'll have Silas take you to sof Arizona's attractions." "No need. I just got off the plane and feel tired. I don't want to go anywhere. You go to work; I'll just look around your company." "Alright, I'll have Silas show you around." "Okay, thanks, Alaric!" After that, Alaric instructed Silas to show Gillian around Nexus Innovations, while he returned to his office.

With Gillian here, Thomas should be back from visiting friends soon. They would definitely have a meal O M together and with Caspian, Harry, and Elisa's birthdays approaching, it was unfortunate that he was in a cold war with Stellan at this time. [Stellan, my former military leader is in Arizona. We might have a meal together in the next few days. Can we make up for now?]

Alaric had already typed it out, ready to send, but hesitated. Just as he was about to send out it a thought This m crossed his mind. 'Alaric, if you take the initiative again this time, you'll be a complete failure!'

So he deleted the message. 'Forget it,' he thought, 'I'll wait until Thomas is done.' After a busy day at work, Alaric learned that Gillian and Silas had gone to tour the residential area developed by Nexus Innovations. He drove back to the hotel. This was his third day away from home, and Stellan still hadn't clooking for him? Alaric returned to his room, took off his coat, and had no appetite for dinner. Just as he was about to read a book to calm down, the doorbell rang.

"No service needed right now!" Alaric thought it was hotel staff, but the doorbell kept ringing even after he spoke.

He put down his book and went to open the door, only to find Gillian standing outside! The will be updated first on this website. Cback and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
