Chapter 1573Alaric’s sudden appearance at her doorstep, barging into her bedroom of all places, caught her completely off guard.
Her bed, always shared with her kids, was adorned with cartoon-themed sheets that screamed childhood innocence. It was a no-brainer for anyone
walking in to realize kids lived there.
Back when she pretended to be Spencer’s wife, she could spin tales with ease. But now that Alaric knew the truth about her and Spencer—that she
was indeed single—it was clear as day to him that kids were part of the equation.

Taking a deep breath, she calmed down, lifted her chin, and met Alaric’s gaze with a defiant stance. “Yes, this is my secret, Alaric. Don’t think just
because you’re the Falconer family’s golden boy, you can do whatever you please!”
She was ready to fight tooth and nail if he dared to challenge her for her kids.
“You’ve always been unpredictable, not one to follow the rules. Why hide this?” Alaric’s unexpected response threw her off.
“Who’s being unpredictable?” She began to retort but stopped short, realizing the implication in Alaric’s words. Surprised and somewhat excited, she
looked at him.
Alaric stepped closer, “Liking cartoon themes is nothing to be ashamed of. Did you really think I’d judge you for having kid-like sheets, so much so
that you’d fabricate a marriage with Spencer? Can you get any more childish?”
As Alaric loomed closer, her heart, momentarily calmed by her own resignation, fluttered anxiously ance more.
What was Alaric implying?
He hadn’t jumped to the conclusion of her having kids but thought she herself enjoyed the childish decor?

“Why especially by me?” Alaric pressed, his eyes sparkling with an intense curiosity.
Was she concerned about his opinion because she cared about him?
“Is it because I hold a special place in your heart?” Alaric’s voice turned seductive.

But years of resilience had taught her maturity; she wouldn’t act recklessly on impulse.
