His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 62

Evadne hopped in the car without uttering a single word. Her whole mood was off, like a robot about to breakdown.

Every time she thought about the cruel words Thaddeus had said to her, it felt like she was getting doused with an ice-cold bucket of water, shaking her to the core. How did she never notice before how nasty he was? How low-down? How shameless?

Well, it was not a sure thing whether love brought happiness, but one thing was for sure. It could make you blind as a bat.

"Miss, I've posted the video as you asked. Look, Glynnis and her two friends are going at it!" Jason thrust his phone in front of her.

Evadne glanced at the screen where three women were having a catfight, and it was quite a scene.

"Damn, this chick's got some fight in her. She's holding her own against two others. It'd be a crying shame if she doesn't join a wrestling match." Jason chuckled.

"Pfft, all they're doing is pulling hair and throwing punches, nothing special to watch."

Even though she said this, Evadne didn't tear her eyes away from the screen. She was clearly saying one thing and meaning another. Actually, watching these women argue did help blow off some steam.

"Miss, did Thaddeus really delete all the photos?"

Jason remembered how Thaddeus had once held Evadne’s waist, Thaddeus’ actions clearly flirtatious, which infuriated Jason to the point where his eyes became red. But then Jason thought about how the two were once a couple and must have shared more intimate moments over the past three years. He felt like he had no right to be angry.

"He must have deleted them. Even if he doesn't like Glynnis, he still needs to protect the reputation of the Abernathy Group. To put it nicely, he's just thinking about the bigger picture. To put it bluntly, he's a heartless monster who doesn't care about his family."

Evadne sighed lightly and unlocked her phone. She never imagined that Thaddeus would remember her phone's passcode. Maybe he saw it one day over the past three years and remembered it ever since.

But what did it matter if he remembered? The man who never loved her from beginning to end would never know what "0923" meant.

That was thirteen years ago, the day Thaddeus first rescued Evadne from a mountain. Perhaps in his eyes, her thrilling experiences were worthless.

"Miss, what should we do next? Thaddeus has destroyed the evidence we had against Glynnis. That woman surely won't back down," Jason asked with a worried frown.

Suddenly, Evadne let out a surprised "Huh?", her eyes widened. Thaddeus' number was now in her contacts! Despite her caution, she still couldn't outsmart this cunning man.

Later that night, Thaddeus returned to the Windermere Estate from his office.

Outside, it was raining cats and dogs. He watched as the raindrops slid down the car window, reminding him of Ilana's eyes, shining like stars.

But each pair of eyes was filled with resentment, making his already heavy mood even more stressful.

Thaddeus tilted his head back, and the neon lights outlined his sharp jawline, adding a hint of mystery to his stern face. He reached up to adjust his impeccably tied tie, its smooth texture reminding him of her slender waist.

Thaddeus' throat bobbed unconsciously, his breathing slightly uneven. He tried to banish that pair of clear eyes from his mind but to no avail.

Evadne was becoming more and more daring. During their three years of marriage, she wouldn't even dare to hold his hand. But now that they were divorced, she had the audacity to provoke him in public. What did she take him for!

"Mr. Thaddeus..." Gordon, sitting in the passenger seat, nervously called out his name, hesitating to speak.

"Speak." Thaddeus was thinking about Evadne, feeling irritated; his tone was icy cold.

"Well... the incident with Miss Glynnis at the hotel has blown up. The internet is full of criticism about rich people trampling on others' dignity. Do you think we should..."

"Leave it."

"But if we ignore it, the lady might complain to Mr. Frederic. I'm afraid Mr. Frederic might blame you." Gordon was worried.

Thaddeus frowned, scoffing, "I'm not scared, why would you be?"
