His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode
His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 316
Chapter 316
Evadne was caught in a cloud of suspicion, casting a discreet glance at Thaddeus.
What on earth was this man up to now?
The atmosphere was as tense as gunpowder.
“Just usual goods, I’m only doing regular business.”
Avery adjusted his glasses, his refined features revealing a mysterious smile, only his slightly tense l*ps betraying his inner irritation. “Mr. Thaddeus, your imagination is quite something. Even if you hold a prejudice against me, you shouldn’t casually speculate about someone’s character, belittling their achievements
Thaddeus smirked, his thin l*ps curving.
“My path is different from yours, Mr. Thaddeus. You’ve had it easy at the Abernathy Group, a young hot shot in the business world, the designated heir of Mr. Hamilton. It’s impossible for someone born with a silver spoon in your
mouth like you to understand how hard it is for an entrepreneur starting from scratch.”
Evadne listened, her long eyelashes fiuttering as she sipped her champagne. Some long–buried memories resurfaced in her mind.
In truth, no one understood better than her that Thaddeus’s situation at the Abernathy Group.
His journey was far from easy as Avery claimed.
“I didn’t expect a casual question to elicit such a response from you, Mr. Avery. I apologize if I’ve made you uncomfortable. Consider the rumors I heard in Helgen just that, rumors.”
Thaddeus chuckled lightly, his stunning face exuding an intimidating aura, his dark eyes fiashing with intensity. “And there’s something you got wrong. I don’t hold any prejudice against you, but the moment you get close to Evadne, I do. From head to toe. inside and out.”
Avery clenched his teeth, his superior jawline tightening.
Debby, stuck between the two, was secretly thrilled by their verbal spar, yet her high status held her back from expressing her excitement. She bit her l*p, suppressing her laughter.
This trip home was proving to be quite the event!
“Thaddeus, have you said enough?”
Evadne was at the end of her patience, her beautiful eyes shooting daggers at the man beside her. “Say another word, and I swear I’ll smack you with a baseball bat.”
Thaddeus’s breath hitched, his hand on the table balling into a fist,
Then slowly, he moved towards her, his fingers lightly touching her round, attractive wrist, the rough texture of his fingertips rubbing against her delicate skin.
“Evadne, I was wrong. Can you not be angry, please?”
He was handsome, clingy, and sweet.
Who could resist him!
The warm touch at her wrist was like a vine wrapping around Evadne’s arm, sending tingling sensations straight to her heart, wrapping around her fiuttering heartbeat.
Seeing her silence, Thaddeus grew more anxious, leaning towards her, his voice hoarse as he coaxed, “Or you can hit me with your baseball bat to vent your anger, but can it wait till we get home? I’m still a CEO, even if I don’t mean much to you. With so many people here, can you, Miss Evadne, spare me some dignity?”
Debby suppressed her laughter, thoroughly enjoying the scene.
“You, you just sit there and behave!” Evadne huffed, turning away from him.
Thaddeus’s affectionate gaze lingered on her pouting l*ps, his heart itching with desire.
At 30, he was still easily swayed by this woman’s every smile and word, like a young boy experiencing his first love.

The lights on the stage dimmed
A bright spotlight descended from the ceiling, illuminating the stage.

The announcer’s voice echoed
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your patience! Please welcome tonight’s star, Mrs. Myra!”
At the sound of her name, the audience erupted into applause and cheers!
“Myra! Myra!” Evadne cheered, her hands red from clapping.
From the depths of the stage, Emeric, dressed in a stunning tuxedo, led Myra by the hand onto the stage..
“Damn! Dad looks damn good!” Aaron exclaimed, looking at his father whose energy surpassed that of the youngsters.
“Dressed to the nines, anyone would think he’s getting remarried tonight!” Arnold said excitedly.
“Remarried? Your dad would be on his fifth marriage by now!”
Jareth teased, playing with Marilla’s hand under the table, “At least it’s still countable on one hand.”
Suddenly, two icy glares were directed at him. It was Suri and Aviana!
Jareth stuck out his tongue, not daring to push any further.
Hungry, Arnold stealthily grabbed a piece of cake, stuffing it into his mouth when no one was looking.
This scene was caught by Camille at the neighboring table!
“Hey, Mr. Arnold, are you stealing food?”
Caught off guard, the cake lodged in Arnold’s throat, causing him to choke!
“Pfft!”
Camille laughed at the sight of him choking, his handsome face turning red, clutching his chest and gulping water.
This woman. After crashing his car and nearly choking him, Evadne still stood up for her.
She must be sent by God to mess with him!
“I’m eating at my own party, in my own hotel. How is that stealing? Arnold shot back, clearly irritated.
“Even so, there are elders present. They haven’t even started eating and you’re already digging in. Where are your manners?”
Camille leaned back in her chair, her laughter playful and mischievous.
She reminded him of his little sister.
Arnold’s irritation faded at her laughter. It was nothing in comparison.
“Wow! Look at Myra’s black and red evening gown! Isn’t it beautiful?”
*Seriously! The moment she stepped in, I was utterly captivated. She’s a sight for sore eyes!”
Almost all the guests‘ eyes were riveted on Myra, deeply attracted by the dress she was wearing, sighing in admiration! Thaddeus couldn’t help but look at Myra, his pupils suddenly shrinking!
The dazzling dress that Myra was wearing, wasn’t it the one that Evadne had personally designed in Camille’s studio?
“Oh my God. I must be seeing things!”
Suddenly, someone stood up from their seat, exclaiming, “Isn’t this a masterpiece by Haron?”
“What? Haron?”
“My gosh! I can’t believe I’m seeing a creation by Haron in my lifetime! I could die happy now!”
“I wish I could touch it!”
“Only the Ashbourne family could pull this off. Haron hasn’t been seen for a while, and yet she comes out to design a birthday gown for Myra! Chairman Emeric’s status in society is eminent!
In contrast, the one from the Abernathy family who also has her birthday tonight, hmm, even if she begged Haron, I bet she wouldn’t design a dress for her.”
Thaddeus widened his eyes in surprise, slowly turned his head, and looked at the slightly smiling Evadne.
Shock and astonishment filled his eyes!
So, she was Haron.
Not only was she Alea, but she was also Haron!

Thaddeus’s breathing became more heated, his chest heaving, his nerves tingling as if electrified!
How could one person possess so many skills, and each one of them was globally recognized and admired!
His woman was nothing short of an angel descended from heaven!
Evadne felt Thaddeus’s intense gaze, she looked at him, and his fiushed eyes startled her.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you have rabies or something?” she teased mercilessly.
“I never imagined that you would be Haron.” Thaddeus’s voice was hoarse. He looked at her, captivated.
“Is it really that surprising? It’s not like you just met Haron today.”
Evadne laughed lightly, dismissive of his reaction, removing her gaze from his tense face, “Alea once made a custom tie pin for you, Haron also tailored a suit for you.”
Thaddeus’s heart clenched, his eyes dim and desolate.
Indeed, back then, she would go to the tailor shop and work until dusk to prepare a birthday gift for him.
He wore that tie pin almost every day.
Every night, he would sit alone at the bedside, carefully wiping it with a clean silk cloth, cherishing it as if it were a treasure. How she felt when she prepared these gifts for him, was how he felt now cherishing them.
Alas.
“Yeah, well, who I am never mattered to you before, and you never cared about my talents.
The things I gave you were just like me, left to gather dust. Evadne propped her chin on her hand as she watched the festivities on stage, feeling an indescribable loneliness.
“Evadne, I was wrong before. I missed my chance with you. But now, I’d rather offend the whole world than let you down again.” Thaddeus took a deep breath, his words sincere as if he was ready to tear his heart out and show it to her, “I know it’s hard for you to give me a chance. You may not even want to give me a chance. But I won’t give up. I’ll keep trying until my heart stops beating.”
“Thaddeus, there are several words in this world that perfectly describe the regret and sorrow we feel, and they perfectly describe our relationship.”
Evadne finally deigned to look at him again, but her gaze was cool and indifferent, “Those are “what’s done is done‘ and ‘you can’t unscramble an egg“.”
“Evadne.”
“I believe in miracles, but I don’t believe in undoing what’s been done or unscrambling an egg. Even if it were possible, it would be a mess, a disaster, not at all like it was before.”
The birthday party reached its first climax due to Myra’s dress.
Several guests had already secretly captured Myra’s stunning appearance and posted it online.
Journalists, like sharks smelling blood, quickly picked up on the news of Myra celebrating her birthday in a Haron gown.
Within a quarter of an hour, the news of Haron custom–making a gown for Myra quickly became the number one trending topic!
[Myra, Emeric’s wife, the washed–up actress? How could Haron make a dress for her!]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Wow! This black and red evening gown is breathtaking!]
[Why can’t Haron make a dress for Myra? Myra was once the queen of television! My parents are still her fans!]
[I’m a huge fan too! Age revealed.]
[That was ages ago, and she’s now Emeric’s mistress, having a child for Chairman Emeric without even a proper title. Does such a woman deserve a dress from Haron?]
[Stop being sour! Having a child for is worth billions! If it were up to me, I’d be his fifth wife, as long as he can handle it, I’d give birth to tons of kids for him!]
This comment, surprisingly, had over a thousand likes.
[What has the world come to!]
[Love is nothing in the face of money!]

This mistress is living the high life! In contrast, Elspeth, the wife of the chairman of the Abernathy Group who also has her birthday tonight, doesn’t have anyone attending her party, and doesn’t have a stunning gown to boost, she’s truly humiliated! She’s living a worse life than Myra, a concubine!]
[Haron making a dress for Myra, I can understand, at least she’s a low–key philanthropist with works to her name ]
[But Elspeth is only interested in cheating and trickery. If Haron made a dress for her, that would truly tarnish her reputation!]
The online discussion was heated.
Myra, who hadn’t been seen in public for many years, shone brightly under Evadne’s guidance, just like when she was the darling of the film and television industry.
Evadne, although present at the party, was always monitoring public opinion.
She turned around and sent a voice message to Jason, “Have the PR department keep an eye on things tonight. Any negative news about Myra, make sure to handle it promptly. Also check the comments every five minutes.”
“Yes, Miss Evadne.”
“And no matter what, don’t let the heat die down for now.”
Jason pondered, “However, Chairman Emeric and Myra prefer a more low–key celebration tonight. It’s just a private party, nothing
too grand.”
Evadne sighed.
They all underestimated Haron’s infiuence.
Whenever her fashion designs graced the runway, they always caused a splash!
People in the jewelry industry worshiped her.
And so did the fashion world!
Now that the dress Haron designed for Myra was revealed, the hype was inevitable. So, why not let Myra have a glamorous birthday that would make every woman green with envy?
On one hand, she deserved it.
And on the other hand, Evadne thought about the clown Elspeth, who was so eager to upstage Myra but got served.
At this moment, she must be banging her head against the wall, frustrated beyond measure.
Hilarious.
“Damn it! That bloody Myra! That wench!”
In the presidential suite of the hotel, Elspeth threw everything she could get her hands on, but it didn’t alleviate her rage. Finally, she picked up a crystal ashtray and smashed the giant TV screen to smithereens!
“Ah! Mom, Mom, calm down!” Glynnis stood at a distance, shivering with fear, her face pale.
“Calm down? How can I calm down? Myra, that wench is wearing a dress designed by Haron! She’s nothing! How dare she?”
The more Elspeth thought about it, the angrier she got, her sanity hanging by a thread, her eyes filled with madness and rage! At that moment, a thought crossed her mind.
She wanted to kill Myra!
