Timeline: 3 years later after Lily's 18th birthday (6 years after the crumble of The Evans Empire)
In the midst of the jubilant celebration marking Xander and Eve's wedding anniversary, an undercurrent of tension mingled with the laughter that echoed through the air.
Xander, adorned in a suit that radiated both elegance and authority, approached Baron's wheelchair with a smile that masked the internal turmoil. "Baron, it's an honor to have you here on this special day. Happy anniversary to us all."
Baron, now a mere specter of his former imposing self, managed a feeble smile. His eyes, clouded by the passage of time, scanned the room adorned with festive decorations, a stark contrast to his frailty.
Xander, trying to maintain a cheerful facade, engaged Baron in conversation. "How are you feeling, Baron? Are you enjoying the celebration?"
