Chapter 546

“We’ve been tight as a drum–no leaks anywhere,” Thaddeus’s eyes darkened with a cool intensity. “Looks like the

Chambers Group had their rats planted near those two key witnesses‘ homes, watching their every move like

hawks. They caught wind of our visit to Ms. Higgins and panicked, thinking she might flip and testify. That’s why they

couldn’t wait to try and silence her.”

“Damn!” Evadne and Gordon cursed in unison.

“Byron’s still locked up downtown; he can’t communicate with the outside world. Who’s doing his dirty work? Could

it be Bitch Avery?” Gordon spat with venom.

Evadne shook her head slightly, “Not Snakey Avery. He’s the last one in the Chambers family who wants to see the

Chambers family thrive. There’s no way he’d lift a finger to help Byron. It’s got to be someone like Jeff and

Matthew.”

“It’s Matthew–it can only be Matthew,” Thaddeus’s eyes glinted sharply as he spoke with certainty.

Evadne’s eyes flickered, and she quickly grasped his hand, “Thaddeus, why are you so sure it’s him?”

“Jeff’s no gangster who kills at the drop of a hat. He’s a businessman, and a successful one knows the value of

staying clean. He wouldn’t make a move like this unless it was absolutely necessary. Even if Byron gets convicted,

with the Chambers Group pulling strings in the shadows, he’d be out in twelve, thirteen years max. And if it’s the

chair, Jeff, as chairman of the group, wouldn’t dirty his hands to save a son, especially one as disappointing as

Byron.”

Thaddeus’s calm analysis was irrefutable, “Besides, Byron isn’t his only son. With Matthew and the rising star Avery

around, he’s got even less reason to get his hands dirty. But Matthew’s situation is different. Evadne, you know

better than anyone the twisted dynamics within the Chambers family.”

Suddenly, the fog of confusion that had clouded Evadne’s mind cleared, her thoughts sharpening, “With Avery

gaining favor with. Jeff, it’s no wonder Matthew is seething with rage, desperate to regain his father’s approval.

Getting Byron off the hook must be his way of presenting a ‘gift‘ to Jeff. And I know the Chambers siblings have

been bullying and sidelining Avery since they were kids. As adults, Byron and Bertha haven’t stopped using Matthew

for their own gains. If Matthew can save Byron, he’s also saving an ally–Byron holds shares in the Chambers Group,

after all.”

Thaddeus felt a rough edge of irritation rising within him as he tightened his grip around her waist, “Evadne, do you

feel sorry for Avery?”

“Yes, I do.”

His breath hitched, hand tensing at her side.

“But my sympathy is for the Avery of fifteen years ago. Not for the Devil Avery of today, driven by greed, ruthless

and callous.”

Evadne reflected on the friendship she once shared with Avery, a torrent of emotions swirling within her, yet her

gaze remained resolute, “I thought that someone who had been hurt would learn to shelter others from the storm.

But instead, he turned into someone who cruelly tears apart the umbrellas of others. I don’t know what turned him

into what he is now on his journey to Helgen, but regardless of his past, it’s no excuse for his downfall.”

Thaddeus had endured pressures and hardships that Avery could never comprehend.

Yet, through all the old grudges and the changing tides, he never abandoned his kindness or tainted his pure soul.

And that was why she loved Thaddeus.

His integrity and bright spirit were irresistible.

Hearing her words, Thaddeus let out a relieved yet self–deprecating chuckle, dipping his head to kiss her tender

cheek.

“Mr. Abernathy, Mrs. Abernathy, I’ll get right on it and start investigating Matthew!” Gordon declared, his eyes

burning with fervent

hate.

“Gordon, you don’t need to worry about anything. Focus on healing,” Thaddeus sternly replied, “As for Matthew,

Evadne and I will handle it. And the man who hurt Ms. Higgins? I will see to him.”

Evadne nestled into his embrace, arching an eyebrow playfully.

Oh, the way he protected others was so sexy.

“But I can’t just sit by and do nothing!”
