Chapter 190

Next day.

Thaddeus was busy handling some urgent matters, but when he heard about Jareth’s car accident, he

immediately dropped everything and rushed to the hospital.

In the ward

Jareth was lying stiffly on the hospital bed, with protectors around his waist and neck. He was opening

his mouth wide, preparing to bite into the apple slices that his female secretary had cut for him.

He looked like a helpless dork, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being waited on.

Thaddeus walked into the ward. He gave him one glance and frowned. “Jareth, have you struck gold or

something? You’re not even thirty yet. Why are you acting so smug?”

The secretary quickly stepped aside, bowed to Thaddeus, and left the room to give the two some

private space.

“God. Thaddeus! Are you here to see me or to make me feel worse? How am I being smug? If I could

move, would I need all this?” Jareth grimaced in pain.

“Stop squirming Just take a rest

Thaddeus’s face remained cold, but he quickly walked to the bed and helped Jareth lie flat himself.

“Thaddeus, if I can’t walk anymore, would you push me around in a wheelchair?” Jareth asked sadly.

“You have so many girlfriends, they can handle that part. I don’t need to get involved.”

Thaddeus responded indifferently. “Don’t worry, even if you were left with nothing but a mouth that can

move, you would still be part of the Fairhaven family. You can still live like before, and those women

would still go to the ends of the earth for you.”

“Huh, that’s true. I still got my charm Jareth didn’t care.

Charm? More like his money was charming.

“How did you end up like this?” Thaddeus asked, frowning.

“You should ask your sister Marilla about that.”

Jareth thought of the figure that ran away in the dark last night and his chest rose and fell in anger. “It’s

all her fault! It should be her pushing me around in a wheelchair!”

*Jareth, what does this have to do with Marilla?” Thaddeus’s face turned serious.

“Your sister came to your dinner party last night and was stopped by the security outside. If I hadn’t

seen her, your sister might have been bullied by those blind security guards, and you wouldn’t even

know!”

“Marilla came last night?” Thaddeus was taken aback,

So that was why Jareth called him out of the blue last night..

“I kindly helped her change her clothes.”

“You helped her change?” Thaddeus turned pale, his usually deep voice turned sharp, and he clenched

his fists.

“Don’t get me wrong! My secretary helped her change, I didn’t touch her!” Jareth quickly clarified. He

didn’t want to get hurt any more. “Then I took her to the banquet hall, and she ran out as soon as she

got in. I was worried about her going out alone at night, so I followed her. But she ran across the road

without looking and almost got hit by a car! 1 rushed up to save her in the nick of time, but hurt my

back. That’s why I’m like this now.”

“What about Marilla? Was she hurt?” Thaddeus asked worriedly.

“She should be fine, right? I was in so much pain that I couldn’t even stand up, but she was able to get

up and disappear like a ghost. She didn’t even help me up! Do I look like I would hurt her?” Jareth was

still very angry when he thought about it, and kept complaining.

“Jareth, I’ve told you before, don’t harbor any thoughts about Marilla.”

Thaddeus’s face turned serious again. “The incident at my grandfather’s birthday party was an

accident. Marilla is totally different from you. You shouldn’t have any desires or fantasies about her.”

1 was just trying to protect her. Don’t you have any humanity? You’re not only ungrateful, but also

blaming me!” Jareth, who was in pain and couldn’t move, could only argue with him, which looked

somewhat ridiculous.

“Who took her to the banquet hall? Who helped her change? Who made her the center of attention?”

“What do you mean?” Jareth was completely confused.

“Marilla has severe social anxiety and autism. She’s very scared of strangers and social occasions.”

Thaddeus felt a great pain in his heart when he thought of how timid and easily bullied Marilla usually

was.

“Autism?”

Jareth was completely stunned. His heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle, and he clenched his

fists tightly.

No wonder Manila was a bit special. A 22–year-old should know about everything, but she still looked

like a naive and childish little girl.

That also explained why Elspeth kept her at home all the time and didn’t let her see people.

“When you did all these things for her, did you ever ask her opinion? Did you ever ask whether she

wanted it or not? You’ve never considered her feelings, because

you’ve neve

i never thought about it that way”

Thaddeus took a deep breath, feeling a dull pain in his heart “Marilla just wants to live a peaceful life,

so don’t add to her trouble If you do, you’ll hurt her

Jareth was silent for a while, then asked hoarsely, “Can her disease be cured?”

Thaddeus shook his head helplessly if it could be cured, would she be like this now?

Jareth was dumbfounded. When he thought of Mantia’s pretty face turning pale from fear last night, his

heart beat faster, and he was rendered speechless.

At this moment, Thaddeus’s phone rang. It was a call from Frederic

He frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then answered the call. “Dad”

“Come to the AbernathyGroup right now, I’m waiting for you in the office.”

After hanging up the phone, Thaddeus looked at the darkened screen and let out a cold laugh.

Was Frederic really his father?

Sometimes he wished there was no such superficial familial relationship, so he wouldn’t hate Frederic

so much.

At the Abernathy Group, in the chairman’s office

The secretary opened the door, gingerly ushering Thaddeus into the office.

As he stepped in. Thaddeus was taken aback

Apart from Fredenc, who was sitting behind the ma**ive desk, there was another person in the room,

and it was none other than Glynnis.

A cloud pa**ed over Thaddeus‘ eyes. He could smell trouble brewing.

“Thaddeus Glynnis immediately broke into a dazzling smile, calling his name sweetly as if they were

the best of pals.

If one didn’t know their relationship, they might be fooled into thinking they were close.

Thaddeus gave a nonchalant nod, he’s never been particularly friendly with his sister.

“Thaddeus, about last night’s incident at the hotel, including the affair where your guest, Ada, was

whisked away by Evadne, I’ve been briefed by Glynnis. The hot topic on the internet, my secretary has

shown me as well,” Frederic leaned slightly forward, his hands folded on the desk, looking at Thaddeus

impa**ively. “Now that things have turned out this way, the public’s opinion of our Abernathy Hotel isn’t

looking too good. With all the doubts being voiced, what’s your plan?”

The PR and reputation department are already on it. By sunset, all the negative news generated by this

incident will be wiped clean from the internet and other platforms, Thaddeus replied calmly, his eyes

void of any emotion.

“But even if we scrub the news clean, the negative impact is already done. The incident last night must

have spread like wildfire within the circle. To be honest, it’s pretty embarra**ing.” Glynnis looked

worried, but her words were laced with mockery.

At her words, Frederic’s jawline tensed up.

“Every incident has its positives and negatives. Competition in the business world is like that, and it’s

inevitable. As long as the Abernathy Group comes out on top in the end, these voices of doubt will

cease to exist,” he said, shooting Glynnis a cold glare. “In business, we shouldn’t fixate on short–term

gains and losses. We need to have a long–term perspective, or we might lose big over small gains.”

Glynnis clenched her teeth in anger, realizing she had been made fun of.

Suddenly, there was a frantic knock on the door and the secretary hurried in

“Mr. Frederic, you need to see this!”

The secretary quickly handed his phone to Frederic, who took one look and immediately flew into a

rage, barking, “Turn on the TV! Switch to the news channel,

now!
