His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 220

As Myras birthday was fast approaching. Evadne spent her days working and her nights locked in her

room, diligently crafting a handmade birthday gift for Myra

She was preparing a ring It was made from 18k gold, natural aquamarine, and diamonds.

For Evadne a top notch jewelry designer, the technicalities were not a challenge However, the

preciousness of this gift lay in the quality of the aquamarine its size was significant, its purity

exceptional. It was a one of a kind collectible piece, its value rivaling that of distinguished gemstones.

When it came to gifts for her loved ones, Evadne was anything but stingy. She never rushed or was

half hearted, she always poured her heart into the gift

This was also the case for the gifts she once gave to Thaddeus

However, that man never seemed to appreciate her efforts

At this moment, a video call notification popped up on her phone. It was tiva, the manager of her

jewelry studio

“What’s so urgent that you’re calling me at this hour?” Evadne asked, carefully polishing the gemstone

“Alea, do you remember Tyler? Liva asked.

“Of course, he was my apprentice for three years before he set up his own business. He’s a talented

young man with good craftsmanship What’s up?”

“The day before yesterday, someone contacted him to replicate your jewelry design. Can you believe

that? If you don’t reenter the scene, there will be knockoffs of your work every Evadne continued her

work, laughing nonchalantly, “What’s there to be angry about? I’m so awesome that those who cant

have mu jewelries to buying fakes to satisfy their vanity’ Tyler couldn’t reach you, so he immediately

came to me. He’s not interested in the job and wouldn’t dare to accept it. It would not only insult his

integrity as a designer but also be like betraying his master’s work.

Evadne couldn’t resist her curiosity. “Just out of curiosity, who is trying to replicate my work? Honestly,

anyone who can identify him as my apprentice must have some serious connections, right?”

don’t know how he met her, but he said the girl is from Elmsworth, Windhelm, with the surname

Fairhaven Oh right, she is also the apprentice of the famous pianist Christian. Evadnes clever eves

blinked

Now she knew it

Since they were so eager to rush into the line of fire, she won’t be polite then

Liva, tell Tyler that his master wants him to accept Ms. Edith’s order,” Evadne’s eyes lit up with a

mischievous gleam, her ips curling into a smirk

“Huh? Why” Liva was utterly confused.

“He should not only accept but also do a good job. He can’t tarnish my reputation.”

Five days later. Thaddeus, who had just finished a meeting at the corporation, received a message

Ads, who had been refusing to budge, had surprisingly agreed

“What exactly is going on?” Thaddeus stood by the window, his silhouette dark and imposing, his eyes

filled with an intense gaze

Gordon anxiously said. “I heard that Glynnis somehow managed to give Ada a piece of Alea’s jewelry

design, which helped to seal the deal!”

Thaddeus cast him a cold glance, “Huh, it must be a fake”

Tm not sure, But Ads is a jewelry collector herself. Wouldn’t she be able to tell if it’s fake?”

Gordon sighed, his face turning gloomy, if Glynnis successfully signs the contract with Ada, the

Abernathy Hotel will fall into the hands of that witch and her daughter! Who knows how much

advantage they will take, they might even drain every last drop of peanut oil from the kitchen!”

“Evadne probably already knows about this.” Thaddeus murmured, his long lashes trembling slightly

Right now, with Glynnis winning over Ada, he was facing a new round of power struggles and

backstabbing, surely more troublesome than dealing with Evadne

However, all he could think about was Evadne’s situation, completely neglecting his own

Gordon sighed, “Miss Evadne has been quiet these past few days, she must have given up fighting

“Given up? Highly unlikely

Thaddeusis dark eyes half-closed, the fiery blood in his body stirring restlessly, “Others might, but

Evadne will never give up so easily. She’s been quiet these days, probably lying low. I believe she will

find a way to counter Glynnis

After all, how could Glynnis, with her limited intelligence, compete with his ingeniously scheming wife?

No, ex wife

Unexpectedly. Thaddeus felt a pang of sourness in his chest.

That evening, the Abernathy family gathered for a rare dinner at Havenbrook, their monthly ritual of

dining with Mr. Hamition.

The atmosphere was seemingly harmonious, even Glynnis exceptionally poured drinks and served

food to Marilla as if they were the closest of sisters.

Maria, seting next to Thaddeus, kept her head down and focused on her food, not daring to utter a

word

However, she was a girl of great dignity. She did not drink the water Glynnis poured for her, nor did she

eat the food Glynnis served her

“Dad, Elspeth and he been discussing an important matter recently and have almost made a decision.

We came here today to inform you and seek your advice “Frederic, the well mannered gentleman, put

his forks down

“You two have already discussed it. Why do you need to consult me, an old man?”

Hamilton picked up a piece of roast meat and savored it, “What can’t be solved by your delicate wife?

She’s been helping you make decisions all along, hasn’t she?”

Elspeth forced a dry smile, her eyes flickering with resentment

Every month, the most painful thing for her was to come here to dine with this old man, who always

managed to mock her in one way or another, causing her to suffer from insomnia the night before each

visit!

When would this old man finally pass away?

Fredric frowned and gave a low, muffled cough. Under the table, he gripped Elspeth’s hand “Dad,

Glynnis is of marriageable age now I think it’s time we started arranging her nuptial” Glynnis’s rosy

cheeks flushed even deeper as she gently bit her lip

Nuptial

Harton’s fork paused mid air, his thick eyebrows furrowing. “My eldest granddaughter is only twenty-

five. She’s so young. I was hoping to have my girls around me for a few more years before they get

hitched! What’s the rush, boy?”

1/2

Bender, our Abernathy gels have no trouble catching a suitor Even at fifty-two, they’re still the belle of

the ball. Plenty of su

lined up”

Suddenly the old man looked suspiciously at Fredric “You’re not cooking up some business allance as

a way out of a corporate crisis, are you?”

Dad, you’re mistaken, our business is doing just fine” Elspeth quickly put on a fake smile in defense of

her husband.

Fredric, let me be clear. Even if the Abernathy Group goes bankrupt tomorrow, you are not to sell off

our girls for your own gain! Our daughters are not bargaining chips for business alliances Do you

understand?”

“Grandpa, you’re overthinking this”

Glynnis quickly put her hands on Hamition’s arm, giving it a playful shake “Mom and Dad are just

thinking of my best interests it has nothing to de to get married”

with business. I’m the one who wants

“Glynnis, do you want to get married?” Hamilton looked surprised

Glynnis blushed and nodded

Ah, women. They grew up so fast

Dad, you really are misunderstanding Fredric. We didn’t force Glynnis into anything. This is all her

decision. She’s in love “Elspeth said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her daughter Hamilton’s tone

changed “Oh? Who’s the lucky lad?”

“You’re more than familiar with Glynnis’s sweetheart.”

Fredric chuckled, “It’s Jareth, Dad”

Thaddeus chewed slowly, his beautiful eyes darkening, but he didn’t make a sound.

“Jareth?” Hamilton widened his eyes in confirmation

Elspeth confirmed, “Yes, Dad, it’s Mr. Jareth”

Clang!

Just then, a loud, out-of-place noise echoed through the room. Everyone turned to see the source

Maria had lost her focus and her hand had slipped, causing her fork to fall to the floor!

In the high-brow, etiquette-conscious Abernathy family, this was a grave breach of manners.

1-I’m sorry!”

Maria’s face turned deathly pale. She was about to pick up the fork when Thaddeus bent down and

picked it up for her

“It’s okay, just get another one” He smiled gently at his little sister, relieving her embarrassment

“Thank you, Thad “Maria mumbled, her head hanging low.

Glynnis’s eyes shifted towards Marilla’s pale face, her lips curling into a smug, disdainful smirk
