His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 367

Chapter 367

“Hey, what’s got you so spaced out?”

Elvis noticed Evadne staring blankly into space and waved a hand in front of her eyes to snap her out of it.

“Elvis.”

Evadne hesitated, her words trailing off as she thought of a woman who bore a striking resemblance to herself.

“What’s wrong, Evadne? You’re usually so straightforward. Why are you stuttering now?” Elvis asked, puzzled.

“It’s nothing, really.”

Just a woman he chanced upon, way back in another country.

Even if she had the slightest suspicion, she couldn’t look into this woman. Her only option was to probe through Edith.

But what was the point?

It was Thaddeus who had declared, in front of her grandfather, that their relationship was over, and there was no turning back.

So what was she hesitating for? What was she mourning?

Evadne gave a silent, bitter smile, draining the lukewarm tea in her cup.

How pathetic she must be, to pine for a man who had forsaken her twice. Shouldn’t she be thankful that she didn’t repeat the same mistake?

Cassius, sitting next to her, took in her mixed emotions but said nothing. Instead, he gently took her chilly hand into his warm one, holding it comfortingly.

“Did you tell Suri and Emeric about Chasel?” Evadne asked softly.

Emeric had taken Myra abroad to alleviate her melancholy, and Suri and Aviana had tagged along. They were staying in separate villas though.

The grand Ashbourne family mansion was rather deserted these days, with only them present.

“We’ve already called Suri.”

Cassius let out a soft smile, “Suri said not to treat him like a guest. Deal with him as necessary, as long as you’re happy, she would even take that she’s never had this nephew.”

Evadne couldn’t help but laugh. She knew that they all doted on her dearly.

“Wow, is this what they call forsaking one’s kin for justice, or disowning one’s family?” Arnold exclaimed, slack–jawed.

Elvis took a cigarette from his black coat pocket and placed it between his lips, a combination of cool and rogue, “Helping others, that’s called forsaking one’s kin for justice. Helping Thaddeus, that douchebag, that’s disowning one’s family.”

Everyone was speechless.

Evadne merely blinked, remaining silent.

“Evadne, there’s something I want to say, but I’m not sure if I should.”

“Then don’t,” Evadne cut him off, already guessing what Elvis was going to say.

It definitely wouldn’t be pleasant.

“Thaddeus now has severe neurological damage due to my actions, affecting his nervous system. We don’t know what’s in store for him, whether it’s intermittent fainting or paralysis, Evadne’s voice was laced with bitterness.

Elvis frowned at her words.

“I don’t want any more dealings with him, but I don’t want to feel like I owe him anything either.

Evadne looked up at Elvis again, her gaze clear yet heart–wrenching, “I’m not trying to save him. I’m trying to redeem myself.”

The atmosphere in the living room grew tense.

Amold, ever the sly fox, suddenly blurted out, “Hey, Cassius, is Chasel really a man?”

Cassius simply replied, “Yes.”

“How does it feel when you hold him?”
