Answer: uneventfully.

Step-by-step explanation:

the first one only has a prefix on it: UN

Second one only contains the suffix: LY

Third one has neither.

The last one contains both the prefix of UN, and the suffix LY.

The word itself is a word (event) so adding both gives it a prefix and suffix
