Chapter 131
“You’re really Little Critter, ain’t ya!” Evadne’s face flushed, her eyes curved with a smile.
The man smiled, and the coldness in his eyes vanished. His left arm wrapped around her slim waist,
and his right hand lifted to push his gla**es with his long middle finger. He hadn’t heard this nickname
in a long time.
Even his father no longer called him this, but Evadne still did, unrestrained and without hesitation, just
like when they were kids.
“Time flies. I haven’t seen you in fifteen years, but you’re still as beautiful as ever.”
“You’re still as handsome!”
Evadne’s eyes were full of mirth. She reached out and lightly patted his cheek, her actions carried a
man’s casualness and frivolousness, but it didn’t repulse him in the slightest.
If she was always prim and proper, then she wouldn’t be the Evadne he knew.
Evadne covered her mouth and let out a burp. Her body swayed and she was unable to stand steadily.
The man smiled slightly, regardless of whether she was willing or not, he directly picked her up.
“Put me down!” Evadne’s face was as red as a flower as she struggled in the man’s arms like a
naughty kitten.
Under her dress, her slender legs kicked randomly.
His gaze deepened. “If you can call out my full name, I’ll put you down.”
“You full name is.” Evadne was seriously drunk, and her mind seemed to be filled with paste. She was
not even clear on what she was saying, let alone remembering his full
name.
“My name is Avery Chambers, but it doesn’t matter if you call me Little Critter.”
The man’s long lashes quivered, and he gently said in her ear, “But, this nickname is only for you to
use.”
Unfortunately, these words entered the drunken Evadne’s ears, turning into chaotic noise. She didn’t
hear a single word.
Avery carefully placed her soft body on the sofa, every movement extremely gentle.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this moment, his phone rang. It was a call from his secretary.
“Mr. Chambers, everyone’s here.”
“Let them all go back.” Avery smiled, his gaze always resting on Evadne’s rosy face.
“Sorry, pardon?” The secretary was surprised.
“Cancel the gathering today. Let them all go home, and don’t disturb me.”
“Alright, Mr. Chambers.” The secretary immediately agreed, not daring to ask more.
“Also, go buy a bottle of lemonade from nearby as soon as possible.”
After hanging up the call, Avery slowly sat next to Evadne. He turned her to the side and tucked a
strand of her hair behind her ear.
On the other side.
Jareth finally collapsed on the sofa after singing the last song, completely pa**ed out.
Thaddeus frowned, feeling troubled.
There was some leftover alcohol in the gla**. He raised his head and finished it in one gulp.
Next, he took Jareth’s cigarette and lit one. The orange flame added an unusual rebellious air to his
handsome face.
The nicotine and his confused emotions entered his lungs together. These emotions were all because
of Evadne. He was surrounded by turbid blue smoke.
Ever since he divorced Evadne, his life had been disrupted. He started smoking and drinking heavily,
and there was no one to advise him to cut down.
“Evadne. Evadne.” With his eyes closed, Jareth was tearing at his black shirt, calling Evadne’s name.
Thaddeus was brought back to reality. He flicked off the ash, lifted his leg and kicked his drooping arm
with the tip of his shoe.
“Shut up, calling her name is useless.”
Suddenly, the door to the box was pushed open with a bang. Gordon was panting, leaning on the door-
frame at the entrance.
“Can’t you knock?” Thaddeus put out the cigarette, saying coldly.
“Mr. Thaddeus! I just saw Mrs. Abernathy!” Gordon was sweating all over in his urgency.
“What?” Thaddeus immediately stood up. “Where?”
“Mr. Thaddeus, promise me that you won’t act rashly and you won’t get angry.”
“Stop talking nonsense!”
Gordon swallowed hard, “I just saw Mrs. Abernathy pushed open the door to a box, then she was
carried in by a man wearing gla**es.”
There was a thunderous roar in Thaddeus’s head, his eyes turned bloodshot instantly, “Which box?
Lead the way!”
The lemonade was bought back quickly.
Avery took it from his secretary, personally fed Evadne, and considerately prepared warm water for her
to rinse her mouth.
The secretary was scared silly.
Avery was usually cold and ruthless. Over the years no woman could get close to him. What was so
special about this lady, that she could make her boss take such good care
of her?
Could it be that he was interested in her?

It seemed heroes really couldn’t resist the charm of a beauty. This beauty probably couldn’t resist
Avery’s charm either.
“Do you feel better?” Avery saw her face was a bit rosier, asking with concern.
Evadne held her chest, her vision starting to focus, but her stomach was still churning. She felt a bit
nauseous.
“Alcohol is harmful to your body, and you should drink less in the future,” Avery said with concern, lifting
the gla** once more to feed her water.
Evadne couldn’t remember what happened just now, but she could see that this man meant her no
harm.
And he was very handsome.
His manners were elegant and gentle, and his gla**es made his face even more refined and noble.
“Sir, you look familiar.” Evadne rubbed her head.
Avery’s eyes narrowed slightly. She had forgotten him indeed.
The door to the box suddenly opened with a loud bang!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLike a sharp blade, Thaddeus swiftly entered the box.
Avery’s face immediately turned gloomy, a cold glint flashed behind his gla**es.
“Mr. Chambers, that’s Mr. Thaddeus from the Abernathy Group!” The secretary reminded in a low voice
on the side, her expression shocked.
“Tell him to leave,” Avery said indifferently, not saying another word.
The secretary nodded and quickly walked up to Thaddeus, “Mr. Thaddeus, please leave immediately.”
Before the secretary could finish her words, the furious Thaddeus had already pushed her aside.
Striding towards Evadne, his tall figure cast a shadow over her, his eyes as cold as ice.
Evadne didn’t have time to react. She rubbed her eyes like a child, looking at him somewhat dazedly.
The next moment, she was taken aback. “Thaddeus? What on earth are you doing here?”
“Come with me.”
Holding back a storm of anger, Thaddeus didn’t say much. He grabbed her arm and pulled her into his
arms.
His rage at that moment was like a tsunami. It was not exaggerated at all.
This woman took his project during the day and was eager to find a man to cheer her up at night.
And that man was a sanctimonious jerk!
Did she have any conscience left?
“Why should I go with you? Who the hell are you?” Evadne, half sober, struggled to break free from his
grip. “Let go of me! Are you a stalker? I didn’t say I’d go with you!”
“Evadne, don’t push my patience!” Thaddeus gritted his teeth, his grip on her hand tightening, his veins
popping.
Avery’s eyes darkened and he suddenly grabbed Evadne’s other hand.
Caught between the two, Evadne felt unbearable pain in her arms. It felt like she was about to be torn
apart!
“Can’t you see that? She doesn’t want to go with you. Do you think you’re a good guy to force
someone?” Avery sneered.
“What happens between us doesn’t need your interference!” Thaddeus’s temples throbbed.
Avery adjusted his gla**es, his gaze icy. “If I’m an outsider, what are you to her?”
They locked eyes and spoke at the same time.
Thaddeus said, “Her husband!”
Evadne said, “Ex!”
