His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 99

Finally, Evadne presented her gift to Mr. Hamiltion.

When the prestigious Dante Chair was brought out, all the antique enthusiasts in the place were ecstatic.

"Wow! Now that's a real gem!"

"I'm totally hooked! Wish I could touch it!"

"Among all the gifts Mr. Hamiltion received today, besides the antique violin from Mr. Thaddeus, this chair is the most valuable!"

"Who exactly is this, Ms. Ilana? Shelling out for some high-priced antique furniture right off the bat? Seems like Mr. Thaddeus' ex-wife wasn't exactly scraping by!"

Thaddeus' heart was racing, his gaze fixated on Ilana.

He didn't expect Ilana to gift Mr. Hamiltion the item she bought at the Ashbourne group auction that was worth 10 million!

It seemed like the Ashbourne group really treated her like a princess.

However, what Evadne said next almost made him choke.

"Mr. Hamiltion, this was a gift from President Ashbourne and me. Wishing you health and happiness, may your joy be endless." Evadne's eyes shone brightly, cheerfully congratulating Mr. Hamiltion.

Cassius bowed, his words eloquent and gentle, "Mr. Hamiltion, I wish you health and happiness. May your joy be endless."

They stood together, dignified and valuable, truly a match made in heaven!

Thaddeus felt his heart pound in his chest. He subconsciously touched his heart, quick as a flash, terrified someone might notice.

"Ah, this gift was too valuable. I'm really grateful!" Hamiltion was thankful but still said, "Ilana, whatever you gave me, I'll love. You really don't have to go to such lengths, Mr. Cassius. You're too kind."

Cassius laughed and replied, "When Ilana and I picked out the gift, we just wanted to make you happy."

"Mr. Hamiltion, just accept it. Ms. Ilana is expressing her feelings through the gift." Glynnis sneered, "But this way of gifting sure is convenient, without having to prepare anything herself and still getting everyone's praise. Ms. Ilana sure knows how to live, quite thrifty."

Evadne raised an eyebrow, calmly saying, "I wouldn't dare reap such a huge benefit, so I prepared a small gift for Mr. Hamiltion as well. It just paled in comparison to President Ashbourne's gift."

Glynnis' eyes widened. This woman actually had a backup gift?

"Oh? Ilana, what else did you prepare for me? Show me quickly!" Hamiltion immediately lit up.

Evadne's eyes twinkled with a mysterious light, and then she clapped her hands.

Soon, Jason, dressed in a suit, walked in, holding a glass box.

And protected inside the box was an incredible scene carved from top-notch coloured gemstones. The hills and stones seemed so lifelike, a sight for sore eyes!

"It's so beautiful!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaim.

The exquisite carving deeply attracted Thaddeus and Jareth. Just how skilled must one be to carve such a perfect piece!

"Ah, this is?" Hamiltion's eyes lit up, pointing at the carving with shaking fingers, "Isn't this Patrick's work, Eternal Horizon? Ilana, where did you get this?"

Patrick?! The internationally renowned late master sculptor? His works were so hard to get!

"Mr. Hamiltion, you flatter me. I don't have the opportunity to get Mr. Patrick's Eternal Horizon." Evadne scratched her head shyly, cheeks flushed, "This is my imitation: Transient Horizon. I put a lot of effort into it, but it still falls short compared to Mr. Patrick's work. It's just a bit of practice."

Everyone stared at this beautiful girl in surprise.

Practice?! That must be some high-level skill!

Only a very skilled carver could engrave thousands of scenes onto a gemstone. This delicate and elegant craftsmanship, from afar, one might even mistake it for Patrick's Eternal Horizon!

This girl was really talented.

Who was she exactly? Could she be Patrick's disciple?!

Everyone looked at Evadne with admiration and respect.

Only Elspeth and Glynnis looked as if they had swallowed a bitter pill.

This woman, ever since leaving the Abernathy family, had become so different. She really kept them on their toes!

"Ilana, my Ilana, you really are my treasure!" Hamiltion laughed happily, holding on to Evadne's hand without wanting to let go.

"To have such a wife, what more could I ask for." Jareth stared at her, sighing.

Thaddeus couldn't help but glare at him coldly, his eyes full of frost.

He looked at Ilana, who was admired like a star by everyone, feeling that her world was so far from his, but he was her husband!

Shock, anger, unwillingness, various emotions tangled in Thaddeus' heart.
