His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 97

Chapter 97
A flood of shame was raging against Thaddeus. Jareth was watching all this, his heart aching.
His opponent was too strong. What should he do? He’s desperate for an answer!
Evadne gratefully said, “Mr. Hamiltion, thank you for your kindness…”
“Alright, it’s your birthday today, let’s not talk about unpleasant things.” Frederic rushed forward with a smile, “Let’s see the birthday gifts the kids have prepared for you? After the gifts, we can start the party, we shouldn’t keep the guests waiting too long.”
“Yes! Let’s open the gifts, open the gifts!” Hamiltion rubbed his hands together with childlike anticipation.
What a cute old man!
Firstly, Jareth and other guests who have a close relationship with the Abernathy family present their birthday gifts. Hamiltion nodded frequently in thanks, accepting them one
by one.
Jareth stood in front of Hamiltion, bowed gracefully, and said with a smile, “Thad and I are like brothers, so if you’re Thad’s grandpa, then you’re my grandpa! I wish you a happy birthday, and may you be as happy every year as you are today!”
“Good boy! Thank you!” Hamiltion couldn’t stop smiling.
“Mr. Hamiltion, happy birthday!” Glynnis walked over with a shy look on her face, standing next to Jareth as if she wanted to stand with him, “I know you like antiques, here’s my birthday gift for you!”
As she spoke, she purposely leaned towards Jareth.
However, Jareth didn’t even glance at her, he just dodged her.
Glynnis almost fell over, her body swaying for a few moments before she regained her balance!
How embarra**ing, there were already people laughing quietly.
Glynnis was so embarra**ed she could cry, cursing those who laughed at her in her heart.
At this moment, a ser vant brought up the antique vase Glynnis had prepared.

Hamiltion nodded with a smile, “Hmm! Very good, thank you!”
Glynnis’ lips curled involuntarily in triumph.”Mr. Hamiltion, this is Marilla’s birthday gift for you. Please have a look.”
At this time, Mr. Murray walked over, holding a rolled up piece of white paper tied with a beautiful silk bow.
“Is it from Marilla? Let me see it quickly!”
Hamiltion unrolled the paper and looked at it, surprised at first, then burst out laughing, “Is this me? Did Marilla draw me? She’s very good at drawing! Marilla is such a talented girl! Ha-ha!”
Seeing Mr. Hamiltion laughing happily, everyone crowded around to see what it was.
Completely ignoring Glynnis who was just showing off.
On the paper was a drawing of an old man in a long robe, laughing with his face lifted, every wrinkle meticulously drawn.
There were also two lines of neat words at the bottom – Wishing Mr. Hamiltion a happy birthday, always be laughing. Marilla. “Look at the picture Marilla drew, does it look like me? Marilla is so talented in drawing!” Hamiltion praised proudly.
“Jareth, look, Marilla’s drawing is really good, it has an artist’s touch!”
Jareth thought of the lovely Marilla, his eyes filled with a gentle smile.
Hearing this, Glynnis’ face stiffened, and she felt like she had been hit hard.
“Although Marilla’s drawing is somewhat immature, I believe that with time, she will definitely make a name for herself in the art world.” Thaddeus praised.
“Mr. Hamiltion, Marilla has a talent for drawing, she has always wanted to go to art school to study fine arts.” Evadne seized the opportunity to speak for Marilla, “You see, even Thaddeus praised Marilla, which shows that she really has talent. We should let her go to art school to develop her talent. I believe that in less than five years, the Abernathy family will have a brilliant female artist.”
Thaddeus frowned, feeling that Evadne seemed to be using him.
“Don’t you and Elspeth care about Marilla at all? Marilla is so talented, you should train her!” Hamiltion said.
“Yes, you’re right…”
Frederic and Elspeth could only agree with bitter smiles.
“I really like the gift Marilla gave me, where is she? I want to see her.” Hamiltion asked with a kind smile.
“Marilla isn’t feeling well, so she hasn’t come down yet, she’ll come to see you later.” Mr. Murray answered gently.
“Ah…” Hamiltion sighed with concern, “Mr. Murray, have this picture framed later and hang it in my study, I want to see it all the time.”
Seeing Mr. Hamiltion value Marilla’s gift so much, Glynnis was so angry her eyes turned red.
She had originally thought that Marilla didn’t have much pocket money, so she wouldn’t be able to buy a good gift. But Marilla gave a painting and even got praised by Mr. Hamiltion. The antique vase she bought with so much money wasn’t even as good as Marilla’s painting.
Marilla, just you wait and see!
On the other side, Acacia paced anxiously in the corridor, calling for Elspeth.
“Elspeth, what should we do?” Acacia was so anxious her face turned red, “Our plan has no effect, instead it made Thaddeus and Ilana’s relationship stronger!”
“I didn’t expect this either.” Elspeth squinted her eyes. “Acacia, it seems we have to take more drastic measures.”
“Do we start now?” Acacia gritted her teeth, her eyes cold.
“No, let’s wait a bit longer.” Elspeth lightly patted her shoulder and smirked, “We have another important guest coming soon. I got plenty of tricks up my sleeve to make a
