Chapter 943

For the next four days, life was both mundane and fulfilling.

Evadne and Thaddeus visited his grandfather, staying over for a night, and even managed to video call Mr. and Mrs. Fairhaven, who were on a globe-trotting honeymoon, already in their third country and about to head off to another picturesque destination.

"Thad, Evadne, Avery's on the run, hiding out in Helgen, right?" Jareth Fairhaven seized a moment when Marilla Abernathy was taken to take her medicine by Dean, eyeing the couple on screen, his expression fraught with concern. "Knowing you two, you're definitely going to head to Helgen to catch that scumbag yourselves. I'm worried; I want to join you in this fight!"

"If you really want to help us, just do one thing: stay by Marilla's side and don't leave her," Evadne said earnestly, cuddling closer to Thaddeus. "Jareth, remember this, no matter what happens, you must stay by Marilla's side without fail. Don't forget how hard you worked to marry her. No one is more important than Marilla."

To stress her point, she added, "Not even Thaddeus is as important as Marilla!"

Jareth glanced at his friend, hastily distancing himself from the statement: "Thad, I didn't say that, man!"
