His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 938

I've always walked this path alone. Never did I seek understanding from anyone, nor did I need it. Goodbye."

With those words, he ended the call and switched off his phone.

"Mr. Chambers... The current president of Helgen is Ms. Evadne's Darcy. If they join forces against you, considering the government's resources, you'll be in a tight spot. Remember how we nearly had Darcy six feet under last time? He hasn't forgotten, and he's been biding his time for revenge. Now that you're down on your luck, the presidential couple will surely seize this chance to settle both public and private scores."

Harvey looked at the man before him, sick and weak yet standing tall with an unbroken spirit, and felt a mix of emotions. "Maybe you should consider leaving Helgen."

"Where to, it's all the same. If living means skulking around like a fugitive, I'd rather face death."

He needed no one's understanding anymore, nor did he crave Evadne's forgiveness. If forgiveness was out of reach, then he'd be—

The villain she'd remember for a lifetime.

After a long and winding journey, Elsie found herself back in Helgen, back to the very villa where she first met Avery, and where she once lived. Everything remained unchanged, except for her, now a shadow of her former self, scarred and heartbroken. It felt like waking from a profound dream.

Confined to the villa, Elsie didn't step outside for over a week. But she didn't sit idly; she spent her days searching the villa for evidence of Avery's crimes, hidden by Harvey. Harvey, too trusting, let her roam freely, even in his study. Yet, despite her thorough search, including his computer, she found nothing.

One night, after a bath, Elsie sat at her vanity, combing her long, silky black hair.

"Ms. Archer," a servant's voice came from outside her door.

Elsie's eyes were cold. "What is it?"

"Mr. Harvey's returned. He wants you in the study."
