Chapter 610

Lity’s eyelashes fluttered as she cast a glance over the lavish dinner spread out on the table before her, then back to Mrs. Fairhaven with concern.

Tonight was supposed to be a cozy gathering for the three of them, and Lily had been busy preparing since the afternoon. Although Mrs. Fairhaven wasn’t adept in the kitchen, she had pitched in, bustling around like a busy little top.

But it was evident that Mr. Fairhaven was in a hurry and unlikely to stay for dinner.

Lily wasn’t particularly bothered, but she feared Mrs. Fairhaven might feel let down.

Jareth, aren’t you staying for dinner? Marilla asked, her delicate eyebrows knitting together as her doe eyes blinked rapidly.

Jareth, with an indulgent smile, couldn’t help but walk over to his petite wife, his large hand landing on her head to tousle her soft hair, Tve got to take care of something tonight, darling, so I won’t be home for dinner.”

“Can’t you make an exception just this once?”

Marilla lifted her lush lashes, her tentative expression tugging at his heartstrings, “Lily has been working all day to prepare this meal, it’s her way of showing she cares, Jareth. Can’t you stay and eat before you go?”

“Mrs. Fairhaven, it’s really okay for me!”

Lily, flustered by Marilla speaking up for her, blushed and shook her head vigorously, “Mr. Fairhaven, it’s just a simple meal, nothing to fuss over. Business comes first; I’ll go and get your car ready.”

“How is it not a big deal! You’ve been at it for hours, and it’s exhausting!”
