His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 147

Right now, Thaddeus's inner world was like a storm, hidden under his broodingly handsome face.

On the other hand, Evadne wasn't nearly as complicated. She just felt simply puzzled. What a rotten day!

Meeting this annoying man in such a beautiful and romantic place was like a rose falling in dog poop, totally ruining the view. She'd better check her horoscope before going out next time.

As for Acacia, the woman with the man, one look at her made Evadne's eyes hurt.

Just then, the towering Avery leaned towards her, his thin lips close to her ear. He whispered with a soft chuckle, "Don't sweat it. I'm here."

Evadne's ears perked up. What was the rush all about?

"Ms. Evadne, what a surprise to bump into you here."

Acacia, putting away her usual sharpness, asked in a gentle tone, "Is this gentleman your new boyfriend? You two seem perfect for each other."

Evadne's eyes were calm. She clearly had no interest in entertaining this hypocrite.

However, Avery answered with a hint of a smile, "Thanks for the compliment, but I'm not Ms. Evadne's boyfriend just yet."

Evadne was taken aback by this.

Hearing this, Thaddeus clenched his fist, his face going cold.

Did "not yet" mean he was eventually gonna be Evadne's boyfriend?

Was Avery saying this to provoke him, to tease him, or were they in a relationship that he couldn't accept?

Acacia noticed Thaddeus's furrowed brow, his arm muscles tight under her grip, and it dawned on her that he still couldn't let go of this woman!

But Evadne had a new love interest now, which eased Acacia's worries a bit.

Someone had to let go of their three-year marriage!

Evadne was quite the man-magnet, who's this rich guy now?

He had an exceptional aura and was pretty handsome too.

"Mr. Thaddeus, are you here to enjoy the flowers with your fiancée?"

Avery gave a faint smile, "You'd better hurry though. Rose Manor is about to close."

"I don't have such refined tastes."

Thaddeus met his gaze, hostility flashing in his eyes. He deliberately ignored Evadne, "Mr. Gordon, get in touch with the person in charge of Rose Manor. I want to discuss a business deal."

"Yes, Mr. Thaddeus." Gordon quickly took out his phone and dialed.

A few seconds later, a phone rang.

Everyone heard it, and the sound was getting closer!

"Weird, sounds like the guy's nearby." Gordon scratched his head, looking confused.

By this time, the ringing was right next to them!

"Mr. Chambers."

Thaddeus was stunned, as he saw a man approach Avery with the ringing phone in his hand!

"Mr. Chambers, you have a call."

The secretary handed the phone to Avery respectfully, not forgetting to shoot Thaddeus a contemptuous glance.

Avery chuckled as if nothing had happened. He glanced at the phone screen and hung up effortlessly.

The call on Gordon's side also got disconnected.

Gordon held his phone, mouth agape. He looked shell-shocked.

Thaddeus blinked in disbelief, his face turning pale.

"Mr. Thaddeus, the owner of Rose Manor you're looking for is me. But unfortunately, I already have a partner. Seems like you made a wasted trip."

Avery turned to Evadne, "Ms. Evadne, I've accepted your partnership proposal."
