Thaddeus was notified by one of his subordinates, and he rushed over immediately. His heart was pounding like a drum the entire way. He was absolutely terrified that something had happened to his wife and daughter.

Thaddeus quickly pulled Bertha and Lea towards him, checking them from head to toe, paying attention to every detail.
