His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 775

Watching Jareth wrap Marilla in his embrace, Aaron’s eyes brimmed

with a stinging sensation, and he couldn’t help but capture the

moment with his camera.

“Aaron, I’m dying to know, when did you figure it out?” Lily, dressed as a pink bunny, couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer.

“Maybe it’s just a cop’s hunch.”

Aaron didn’t tell her that love, that kind of thing, can never be hidden, no matter how hard you try.

The moment he treasured Marilla in his arms, he knew it was Jareth.

“Let’s let Mr. Fairhaven and Ms. Marilla stay together a little longer. We promise not to bother you anymore,” Lily pleaded.

“Don’t worry about me. As long as Marilla’s happy, that’s all that matters.” Aaron didn’t realize how hoarse and gravel–filled his voice sounded as he spoke.

Even with reluctance tugging at his heart, Jareth still brought Marilla back to Aaron.

Any longer, and he might give himself away.

“What’s wrong? Why the tears?” Aaron offered her a tissue, asking gently.

“It’s nothing, really.” Marilla mopped at her eyes, her voice muffled.

Aaron knew the reason for her tears all too well. His heart was bittersweet, but he still managed to flash her a bright smile,

“Are you hungry? Come on, Aaron’s gonna take you out for some good

eats!”
