His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 888

As darkness fell, Jareth hosted a cozy and lavish banquet within the castle.

His wife had a fondness for teddy bears, so every nook and cranny of the castle, including each dining table, was adorned with adorable stuffed bears —

a brown one dressed in a black tuxedo, symbolizing Jareth, and a light pink one in a pristine white wedding gown, nestled beside the brown bear, representing Marilla.

Since his wife had dietary restrictions that prevented her from eating overly greasy foods, the feast predominantly featured dishes that suited her palate. Yet, every dish was made from exquisite ingredients flown in especially for the occasion, light but guaranteed to satisfy everyone;

Since she couldn't drink alcohol, there wasn't a single glass of wine on the tables tonight, all were replaced with various juices and tea beverages.

When it came time for the newlyweds to toast, Jareth prepared a homemade bubble tea for Marilla. She hadn't indulged like this in a long while due to a long hospital stay, downing three large cups in one go, the sweetness making her beam with joy.

During the entertainment segment, Jareth, with his arm around his wife's waist, stood on stage to watch Thad, Arnold, Aaron Ashbourne, and Chasel sing a heartfelt rendition, much to the anticipation of everyone present.

The melody that filled the room was "Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You" — a song they had secretly rehearsed early in the morning.

This song was chosen by Lily for their wedding, as noted in her diary, wishing to sing for Lord Jareth and Mrs. Abernathy.

Now, it was a wish fulfilled posthumously.

But Jareth believed, with every fiber of his being, that Lily, in spirit, could see this moment and was blessing them from above.

Evadne gazed deeply at her beloved, moved by the romantic serenade, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

"Evadne, didn't you tell me Thaddeus couldn't sing?"

Camille teased, nudging a blissful Evadne, "He's not half bad. At least he's on pitch."

"Though he acts all nonchalant and confident in front of me, he actually gets up an hour early every morning to practice this song."

Evadne, supporting her cheek with her hand, couldn't take her eyes off her man, "I know exactly when he gets up every day.
