His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 895

Jason tried to push aside his longing for his darling wife and got back to work:

"Ever since we hit up Boston, Wayne hasn't even been home. He's essentially living at the office. Sends his guys out for groceries and everything. It's like he's cut off from the world."

Evadne's eyes darkened thoughtfully, "He hasn't even visited his wife?"

"Not once."

Jason frowned in disbelief, "The more I think about it, the weirder it gets."

Evadne twirled her pen, her gaze unreadable, "Not weird at all. Wayne's sharp. He knows he's in dangerous waters. Any wrong move could be fatal."

Jason gasped, "President Ashbourne, you mean?"

"Snakey Avery might be laying a trap for him as we speak."

Evadne's grip on her pen tightened, whitening her knuckles, "Perhaps he already tried once, but Wayne dodged it. That's why he's on high alert, staying behind closed doors.

And there's no safer place than the police station. Even Avery, with all his cunning, wouldn't dare strike there. That'd be walking right into a lion's den."

Jason's heart clenched, "President Ashbourne, we can't let anything happen to Wayne. He's our key to taking down Avery! It sounds like Avery's out for blood."

"But if he just hides out, Avery can't touch him, and we can't get to Avery either."

Evadne interlaced her fingers, resting her chin thoughtfully on them, her gaze deepening, "So, we need Wayne to step out from behind those police station doors."

Jason scratched his head, confused, "But President Ashbourne, wouldn't that just give Snakey Avery his chance?"

"I'm on the same playing field as he is. If he sees an opportunity, so do I."

Evadne's eyes warmed, a smile playing at the corners, "Besides, I trust Thaddeus. Even the slightest chance, he'll seize it firmly."

Right on cue, Thaddeus called.

"Thaddeus, how's it going? Made it to Azeroth City?" Evadne's voice was tender, like a gentle breeze.

"Evadne, I'm here, heading to the meeting now."

Thaddeus sounded rushed, "Murray called, said Grandpa's been off since returning from Boston. Hasn't eaten all day. Can you take him to the hospital?"

"Thaddeus, what's with that tone!"

Evadne's eyes widened in mock outrage, "He's your grandpa, doesn't that make him mine too? Taking care of him is only natural. Why the formality?"

"Evadne, you've been running on fumes for days, and with you holding down the fort at KS Group, I just didn't want to overburden you." Thaddeus chuckled helplessly, always soft when it came to his wife.

"I'm not tired. For family, I've got endless energy."

Evadne sighed softly, her voice smooth as silk, "Alright, I'll take Grandpa to the hospital right away. Focus on your work; leave home to me."

Jason quickly arranged the car, and they sped off to Elmsworth.

Picking up Grandpa and Mr. Murray from Havenbrook, they headed to the hospital.

In the VIP ward,

Hamilton, looking pale with an IV drip, rested against the bed as Evadene sat beside him, helping him drink water.

"Ilana. I can't thank you enough for coming from Skyrim to be here." Hamilton's eyes were teary, deeply moved.

"Grandpa, it's no trouble at all. I was planning to visit anyway."

Evadne's eyes shone with a clear softness, gently comforting, "I talked to the doctor. You're just a bit under the weather from the travel and not being used to the food here. It's nothing serious, don't worry."

"Ah, I'm just an old man now, not much use."
