His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 233

The auction came to a dramatic close filled with unexpected twists and turns.

it wasnt just the record breaking sum of charity raised by Ethereal Vogue magazine that evening. The

reporters on the scene were having a field day, unearthing one juicy scoop after

another

Frederic, upon hearing the news, promptly dispatched his secretary and attorney to the scene. They

escorted Elspeth and the visibly shaken Glynnis to the car amidst the crowds scrutinizing gazes.

It was apt to describe their ext as a hasty retreat

1 am the legal counsel for the Abernathy Group, Miss Caroline if you don’t have concrete evidence to

back up your public accusation of Miss Glynnis bribing you to steal K Hotel’s business information, we

wit sue you for defamation. And we will take it to the end!” The lawyer issued a stern warning before

leaving

Caroline, faced with the prospect of a lawsuit and up against the formidable Abernathy Group, was

naturally frightened. But what scared her more was Thaddeus intimidating presence. He was a man

who could turn her world upside down with a single thought.

Right now, he was standing there, his handsome brows furrowed, watching her without a hint of

emotion

Caroline flinched but managed to muster up the courage to retort, 1. I wouldn’t have said it if i didn’t

have evidencel Don’t think I’m scared just because you’re rich and powerfull

I’ve changed my ways now, and I won’t be coerced into doing something against my conscience ever

again!”

“Mr Thaddeus, what should we do about this “The lawyer turned to Thaddeus, clearly at a loss

Thaddeus expression remained impassive, his tone icy. “Tell Mr. Frederic that his opponent isnt Miss

Caroline, but the entire K Orld Hotel

Thaddeus thought. “And me.”

Now it was the lawyer’s turn to be taken aback

Evadne was the heiress of the Ashbourne family. If this situation escalated, they would be offending the

entire Ashbourne Group!

The Chairman Emeric, CEO Cassius Ashbourne, and the Bright family none of them were pushovers It

was truly a case of stirring up a hornet’s nest “Apologize when you should, take responsibility when you

must. Distorting the truth and aiding the wicked will only make us the laughing stock.” Thaddeus

sneered, and then turned to look for Evadne

To his surprise, she had already disappeared. Once again, his warm heart was left in the cold.

Ins had other important engagements to attend to. Evadne accompanied her to the underground

parking lot.

“Miss Evadne, you truly impressed me tonight”

this gave her a warm hug. 1 knew Cassius sister wouldn’t disappoint.”

“That’s because you see me through the lens of being Cassius’ sister, Evadne smiled modestly

“No, from the moment I met you, I admired your demeanor, your ideas, and your perspectives. I believe

we could be great friends,” Iris confessed sincerely

“Um Cant we be great family?” Evadne teased.

tris blushed at the implied suggestion, “Darling, I’m turning fifty next year. As much as I adore Cassius.

I can’t hold him back

“What’s wrong with being fifty? My dad and his wife. Myra, have a twenty five-year age gap. I see them

enjoying ther Ives together every day”

Evadne gave Iris a hearty pat on the back, Miss Ins, life is short. Don’t make choices you’ll regret. If

you truly like my brother, go for it. Even if things don’t work out in the end, at least you won’t have any

regrets.”

“Alea “Iris suddenly called her by her other name, “Have you ever made choices you regretted? Do you

have any regrets in your life?”

A sharp pang of pain pricked at Evadne’s heart. The dark corner she had sealed off in her heart

seemed to have been brutally torn open

But she simply smiled, “To be honest, yes. I have made choices that I regret But now, I dont have any

regrets at all”

She regretted her marriage with Thaddeus

But she had no regrets as well, because she had married him

It seemed contradictory, but it was her true feelings.

After Inis left, Evadne was immediately swarmed by a group of excited reporters. Without Jason or any

bodyguard by her side, she felt cornered despite the reporters’ lack of malintent “Miss Alea! How do

you plan to hold Glynnis accountable for copying your designs? Will you sue her?”

“Glynnis instigated that female reporter to leak K Orid Hotels business secrets, causing your

partnership with Ada to fall through. Will the K Group take the Abernathy Group to court?” “Ada has

already stated that she will cut ties with the Abernathy Group. Will the two of you reconcile and

continue to work together?”

After a long day of events, faced with these questions, Evadne felt a wave of exhaustion hit her. The

pain in her stomach returned with a vengeance. But despite the sweat on her forehead and her pale

face, her eyes still spackled, and she stood tall, showing no signs of illness.

Before Evadne could respond, a tall figure broke through the crowd, protecting her from the growing

chaos. She looked up and was slightly dazed

The next moment, a clear voice rang out, “All these questions will be addressed in a statement by the K

Group after the event.”

“Ms Evadne isn’t feeling well. Please make a way, I need to take her to the hospital”

Evadne’s pupils constricted, her eyes locked on Avery, whose expression was clouded with worry.

This man hadn’t been seen by her side all evening. How did he know she was unwell?

Memories of her three years of humiliation and heartache streamed back to her. Thaddeus had never

shown any concern for her. Even when she miscarried, when she was bedridden and asked him to

bring her a glass of warm water, he coldly denied her

Even if he didnt know her condition at the time, his denial of such a small favor showed that he neither

cared for her nor valued her

They say that love is defeated in the details, and if that was the case, her love for Thaddeus was

riddled with holes and utterly defeated in those three years.

Did the regret it? Yes, she did

But she had made her choice, and she could blame no one else

A bead of sweat trickled down Evadne’s forehead, causing a pang in Avery’s chest. He swiftly

supported her, his arm wrapping around her delicate wast

Are you feeling bad?” he asked, his voice low

“Yes Evadge breathed, every word intensifying her pain
