His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 902

**Thaddeus ensured Verna's safety before he hurried back to Elmsworth through the night.**

His heart was heavy with worry as he returned to their shared home, only to be greeted by the sound of Evadne's clear, pleasant laughter mingling with Alva's as they watched a sitcom.

Thaddeus's heart settled, and a gentle smile graced his lips. He draped his blazer over one arm and quietly made his way towards them.

“Mrs. Abernathy, after a whole day of hustle, you still haven't taken a moment to rest, and here you are, making snacks for the young master. You're working too hard.”

Alva handed Evadne a cool slice of orange, his eyes filled with concern. “Leave these tasks to me. You should take every chance to rest.”

“It's okay, I don't mind. Making snacks allows me to focus on something simple. It's actually quite relaxing,” Evadne replied, smiling as she enjoyed a slice of the orange and offered one to Alva. “Thaddeus hasn't had a good rest in a while. Let him have some snacks, take a bath, and get some sleep when he gets back.”

“Ah, back at the Windermere Estate, you took care of him day in and day out for three whole years without a break. And it seems nothing has changed.”

Alva couldn't hide his dismay. “Mrs. Abernathy, you should take better care of yourself. Don't spoil him too much. You'll make a bad habit out of it!”

Thaddeus stood in the shadows, lips pressed tight, heart pounding.

“My man, who else should I spoil if not him?”

Evadne's words sent a shiver through him, as if they were newlyweds, the excitement undiminished. “Besides, Thaddeus is worth it.”

His eyes welled up, throat tight with emotion.

He had never felt so valued.

To him, it was all about being lucky, nothing more.

“Ah!”

Evadne, startled by Thaddeus's sudden presence, nearly choked on her orange slice. “Thaddeus? When did you get back? Standing there silently like a ghost, you scared me!”

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.”

Thaddeus approached her, and she him, as if drawn by a magnetic force.

“Missed me?” His warm hand cradled her neck, his nose brushing against hers.

“You're stealing my lines…” Evadne's eyes twinkled, playful.

“Missed you.”

Before she could finish, Thaddeus's breath deepened, his desire to tell her overwhelming. “Evadne, I missed you so much.”

Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, she knew he wasn't lying.

She reached up, her slippers barely touching the ground, and kissed his cool lips.

Thaddeus was not content with a simple kiss. He pulled her closer, his palms warm against her back, their lips and tongues intertwining until she was breathing him in.

Evadne melted into his embrace, her cheeks flushed.

Alva had discreetly left for the kitchen to check on the snacks.

Just then, Evadne's phone rang.

“Wait… Let me take this call.”

She pulled it from her pajama pocket, saw it was Aaron, and answered, trying to catch her breath.

“Evadne, there's a problem.”

“What’s wrong?” Both Mr. and Mrs. Abernathy were instantly on edge.

“Avery wants to see you.”
