His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 915

Avery felt like he was being roasted over an open flame, every inch of his body searing with pain.

"Sorry, but please, rest assured, sir. I'll handle all the troubles in Elmsworth," he insisted.

"Sounds better than a Broadway show," Alexia mocked with cold laughter. "Since you've been appointed as the CEO of Chambers Group, you haven't solved a single issue. Instead, you've been outplayed by Thaddeus and Evadne at every turn."

Avery closed his reddened eyes, filled with a mix of hatred and frustration, biting his gums until they hurt.

"Mr. Chambers, don't say I didn't warn you. You better handle the Wayne situation properly. This is your last chance from him," the woman's voice was as cold as ice. "Another failure, and you know the consequences."

Avery barely got a word out before the call was brutally cut off.

Staring at the dark screen, he felt a chilling abyss surrounding him.

Then, a knock on the door.

Shaking off his daze, Avery answered, and Harvey, beaming in a brand new suit, stepped in.

"Mr. Chambers, I've proposed to Ellie, and she said yes!" Harvey barely contained his joy.

Avery's pallid face barely showed any emotion. "Really? Congratulations."

Harvey respectfully placed the wedding invitation on his desk: "I've set the date and place. I sincerely hope you can join us."

Avery glanced at the invite, his voice cool: "Harvey, I'm afraid I can't make it to your wedding."

Harvey tensed, sensing something was wrong, "Mr. Chambers, is there something going on? If there's a problem, I can cancel the wedding. We've got to get you through this."

"I appreciate it. You've been with me for a decade. I might not trust others, but I trust you," Avery said, a rare warmth in his eyes. "But with all that's happening, especially with Wayne, I'm in no mood for celebrations."

Harvey's expression darkened, "Just give the word, Mr. Chambers, what do you need?"

"Have Lawyer Lee meet with Wayne sometime this week," Avery said, standing by the window, casting a shadow, "Once we have his wife as our leverage, Wayne will take all his secrets to the grave."

Harvey nodded, understanding the dark logic. After all, taking someone's family hostage was an age-old, effective strategy.
