In the car, Eleanor Sterling looked at Alaric Faulkner and spoke, "I have an appointment with my mentor at the restaurant for dinner, just drop me off there."
She paused for a moment, then added, "I want to ask about the antidote for Caleb’s poison."
Hearing this, Alaric immediately said in a deep voice, "I’ll go too."
After all, as the child’s father, he should know about this, so Eleanor did not stop him.
He turned the steering wheel and drove in the direction of the restaurant.
In a booth at the Western restaurant, Brian Zane and Elder Sawyer were already seated, exchanging a glance and then, in a tacit understanding, looking away.
Why hasn’t Eleanor arrived yet?
The two of them sitting here right now makes it seem as if they had arranged to have a meal together.
Hmph, they would never arrange to have a meal together, unable to stomach each other’s old faces.
The restaurant door was pushed open, and Eleanor Sterling and Alaric Faulkner walked in together.
Her eyes scanned the restaurant and quickly located Brian Zane and Elder Sawyer.
Eleanor led Alaric over and sat down opposite the two of them.
Brian Zane squinted at Alaric Faulkner, unhappily saying, "Did you verify clearly last time? This guy is Little Star’s biological father?"
Eleanor nodded and candidly admitted, "Yes, Little Star is his son."
Alaric Faulkner’s thin lips curved slightly, nodding at Brian Zane.
Elder Sawyer coldly snorted discontentedly, "So, you’re the lousy man who made Eleanor have a child alone, suffering all the disdain?"
Eleanor felt a deep sense of pity for Alaric Faulkner.
Unexpectedly, his path to winning her over was so arduous, first being scrutinized by her grandfather, and now it was the turn of her mentors.
However, she believed that with Alaric Faulkner’s abilities, making her mentor nod in approval wouldn’t be a problem.
The lousy man, Alaric Faulkner, nodded helplessly, putting an arm around Eleanor’s shoulder, his voice steady, "That’s right, it’s me. I didn’t know it was Eleanor, otherwise, I would never have let her endure such pain."
Elder Sawyer had meant to scold Alaric Faulkner, but didn’t expect him to admit his mistake proactively.
Left him with nothing more to say.
"I heard you were going to marry another woman!" he finally spat out after holding back. Google seaʀᴄh NoveI★Fire.net
Alaric Faulkner’s eyes darkened slightly, explaining, "Faye Sterling stole Eleanor’s child and deceived me for so many years, of course, I must punish her."
Elder Sawyer, being sharp-minded, immediately realized that the marriage situation had another hidden truth after hearing this, and he looked at Alaric Faulkner in front of him again.
The man had handsome features, exuding a noble aura, and looked perfectly matched with Eleanor Sterling sitting beside him.
He somewhat reluctantly said, "Alright then, the original is still better, I won’t interfere too much in your affairs."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "But if you dare let Eleanor suffer, I won’t let you off."
Alaric Faulkner understood he had earned Elder Sawyer’s approval and let out a sigh of relief.
Brian Zane had also been listening just now, nodding discreetly, having no further objections.
Seeing that they were done talking, Eleanor began to address the main issue.
She looked at Elder Sawyer and asked, "Master, is the antidote for Caleb ready?"
Elder Sawyer snorted, "Of course it’s ready. I was just about to bring it to you, never thought you’d be at Elder Xu’s today."
After speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle and placed it on the table, "There’s only one pill inside, just take it directly, it works in ten minutes."
A hint of joy flashed across Eleanor’s face as she carefully took it, saying, "Thank you, Master."
Caleb Faulkner’s days of suffering are finally coming to an end.
