His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)
Chapter 213

Chapter 213 

A question as sharp as a needle’s point had all eyes in the room settled on Kevin. 

Kevin, under Evadne’s smiling yet piercing gaze, felt a slight shiver at the heart. But he still managed to respond calmly. “It’s no secret in our circle anymore. The Abernathy Group had a previous run-in with us, and Ada was caught in the middle, swaying between you and Mr. Thaddeus. But in the end, your superior skills won you the right to host the wedding. Now that weve fallen short, and with Ada’s wedding drawing near, it’s only natural that she’d turn to the Abernathy Group, isn’t it?” 

His words were so well measured that they left no room for objection 

Evadne’s eyes curved into a smile, and she leaned back comfortably in her chair Your analysis is good, but you’ve overlooked one point. As far as I know, the Abernathy Group and Ada have yet to sign a formal contract” 

The room gasped in surprise, “What? it’s been a week and they still havent signed?” 

Kevin kept a poker face, but his expression was obviously becoming strained. 

If they had signed wouldn’t the Abernathy Group be trumpeting the news? Their silence suggests things have yet to progress. That means we still have a chance” 

Evadne spun her chair leisurely. “You see, I’m a stubborn one by nature I never give up until the last moment. So, I’ve devised a new plan, which I intend to present to Ads in the coming days. Let’s see if we can catch the Abernathy Group off guard” 

The room erupted into applause. That’s President Ashbourne! So assertive!” 

Kevin forced a smile joining in the applause 

“But President Ashbourne” Kevin began, “at the end of the day, we were the ones who breached the contract initially I suspect Ada already has a grudge against us. Won’t you be hitting a brick wall trying to negotiate with her again?” 

“That’s true. Somethings can’t be forced” 

Evanesips were a rich red, her eyes sparkling like black diamonds, her smile was unapologetically bold 

“Just because life is full of disappointments doesnt mean we shouldn’t try. Even if it seems impossible, I’m going to give it a shot” 

After the meeting the project team members left. 

The large conference room was left with only Evadne and Jason. 

Evadne accepted the coffee Jason handed her, standing in front of the large floor-to-ceding window overlooking the grand view of Elmsworth, and sipped her coffee in a relaxed manner “Miss Evadne, you mentioned in the meeting that you’ve devised a new plan. Were you telling a le?” Jason stood beside her, asking tentatively 

was, and I caught something” 

Jason’s eyes widened in excitement, “Really? Who?” 

1 have suspicions, but no evidence, so I can’t be sure.” 

Evadne’s eyes darkened, “Jason, I want you to follow Kevin after work tonight. Report to me immediately about who he meets and any unusual movements.” 

The next day. Maria woke up, and was personally escorted home by Thaddeus 

With his intimidating presence, Elspeth, although displeased, didn’t dare say anything in front of Frederic 

As for Glynnis, she didnt dare make a sound, because she was the one who had wronged Maria and Ellipeth wouldn’t say anything. But if her father found out, he would definitely 

reprimand her 

In the evening, Marilla lay on her bed, cuddling the teddy bear she had regained. She tried to recall hat had happened the night before, her heart beating faster and her cheeks turning slightly red 

In truth, she had a bit of a blackout the previous night and couldn’t remember what happened or how she got home 

All she could remember was the moment the lights went out, the heavy kiss landed on her soft lips, teasing and tantalizing her inviting lips 

And those burning eyes, staring straight at her, as if they wanted to see into her heart 

Maria took a deep breath, got out of bed, and sat down at the table. 

She took out her sketchbook and pencil, closed her eyes for a few seconds, and then began to sketch on the white paper 

After about ten minutes, a handsome face with sharp features, reminiscent of a beautiful Satan with a hint of wickedness, appeared on the paper 

Marilla locked at her drawing, gently touching his beautiful eyes 

“Jareth, you’re really very handsome” 

What Maria didn’t know was that the handsome Jareth had already driven a red Ferrari alone into Windermere Estate 

“Who did 

you say is here?” 

Elspeth had been admiring the autumn scenery in the backyard with Frederic when the butler came to report, and she was taken aback “Madam, it’s the eldest son of the Faghaven family” 

“At this hour?” 

Frederic checked his watch and frowned slightly, Thaddeus isnt home, and he should know that. And it’s almost dinner time, why would he come now?* “Oh, Frederic, Mr. Jarth rarely visits, why are you thinking so much? Maybe Mr Jareth came to see Glynnis “Elspeth playfully held onto Frederic’s arm 

Elspeth, are you implying that Jareth and Glynnis?” Frederic was surprised 

“You’re too busy, and you don’t pay enough attention to our daughter. You don’t even know what Glynnis is thinking” 

Elspeth pointed at Frederic’s chest and complained, “Glynnis has always had a crush on Mr. Jareth” 

Frederic stared in surprise. “Glynnis likes Jareth? How come I didn’t notice?” 

“Oh, Frederic, a girl can’t just openly talk about these things.” Elspeth looked shy as if she were embarrassed for her daughter 

“This isn’t a small matter Glynnis’s marriage is very important to the Abernathy Group” 

Frederic suddenly became solemn, “Glynnis is my firstborn, my pride and joy Her marriage must be carefully considered. Only the best, not just in Elmsworth but in the entire country, will 

do for her” 

The Farhavens are one of the most affluent families in Elmsworth. Mr. Jareth is the only grandson of Barry, the patriarch of the Fairhaven family. Barry is getting on my produced any significant heirs. So, doesn’t that mean Jareth would eventually inherit the entirety of the Fairhaven empire?” 

and hasn’t 

Elspeth’s thought was so clearly, “Plus, Jareth is Thaddeus’s close buddy. If Glynnis marries into the Fairhaven family, it would be a double bond of kinship. What a good match it would 

be* 

Frederics face lightened, his heart starred by Elspeth’s words 

Although Jareth didn’t have the best reputation in Elmsworth, it’s not uncommon for a young man of his pedigree, who has been showered with material wealth since childhood, to seek excitement from girls 

Frederic himself had been reckless in his youth. When Jareth matured and had his fun, he would naturally settle down. 

Marrying Glynnis to Jareth would indeed be a match of equals. Once they were married, the weight of the Abernathy empire would keep Jareth in line. 

At this moment, Jareth was already sitting in the living room of the villa. 

He had often visited the Windermere Estate since his childhood to play with Thaddeus. He felt at home here, so much so that he could even pour his own coffee without the assistance of a 

Butler 

“Jareth, what brings you here today?” 

Frederic and Elspeth both came to greet him Normally, Frederic wouldn’t show his face, but after hearing his wife’s “Something came up suddenly I hope I’m not interrupting, Mr. Frederic 

We were just about to have dinner, Jareth. Would you like to join us?” Elspeth extended the invitation earnestly 

“No need.” 

Jareth declined politely. 1s Glynnis home? I would like to have a word with her.” 

Frederic and Elspeth exchanged glances, their expressions inscrutable 

When Glynnis heard that Jareth had come, she was so excited that she could barely contain herself. 

eds today, he felt the need to meet Jareth in person 

But remembering her mother’s advice, that a woman who threw herself at a man was less cherished, she held back and did not go out to meet Jareth 

To her surprise when she finally managed to resist the urge to seek him out, Jareth took the initiative to seek her out! 

With her heart pounding. Glynnis walked into the tea room 

“Mr Jareth, you wanted to see me 

Jarethheld his cup with his slender fingers, took a casual sip, and replied, “Hmm” 

What is it? Glynnis sat down across from him, her face flushed with shyness 

“About what happened last night at the Sapphire Nights Club, do you have anything to say?” Jareth looked at her coldly, not wanting to beat around the bush. Glynnis felt a sudden tightening in her chest, “Last night? what happened?” 

“How did Maria’s teddy bear, a girl who hardly ever leaves the house, end up discarded at the Sapphire Nights Club?” 

Jareth put down his cup with a thud, his gaze icy. “Glynnis, there’s a limit to joking around. Wasn’t what you did last night a bit too much?” 

Glynn’s face turned white as a sheet, her heart pounding in her chest! 

“Mr. Jareth, I think you’ve misunderstood” She was so scared her eyes welled up with tears, trying hard to show her grievance, her tears rolling down her cheeks. 

“Marilla didn’t cry even after you played her for a fool last night. How dare you shed tears?” 

Jareth didn’t even glance at her feeling her tears were as irritating as pepper spray, Anyway I came here to tell you two things. First, don’t bully Maria anymore. I’m going to be watching over her from now on. Think about who’s standing behind her before you try anything Second, stay away from my sister. She’s innocent and naive. Don’t you dare corrupt her.” 

Then the tall and upright man stood up and walked out without looking back! 

Glynnis stared blankly at the door that had been slammed shut, and her soul seemed to have been sucked but of her as she slumped down onto the couch
