Hertha finally felt a wave of relief wash over her as the issue with Helena was finally put to rest. She quickly agreed, adding, "Yeah, yeah, grandma's cooking is the best, so clean and just as tasty as KFC." The kids didn't say another word after that. After all, it's pretty easy to please children; a good meal usually does the trick.

Once she got the kids to bed and they drifted off to sleep, Hertha finally relaxed and called Thalassa to recount the day's events.

Thalassa was shocked. "Alaric really jumped the gun this time, didn't he? Whisking away the kids without a word, he could've given someone a heart attack."

"Tell me about it. I used to think he was alright, but it turns out he's the kind of guy who doesn't think about anyone else! I must've been out of my mind to have fallen for him so hard. Being a sucker for good looks really bites, huh?" Hertha sighed.

"What's done is done, no point in regretting. The main thing is the kids are safe," Thalassa consoled.
