His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 391

Chapter 391

“Ms. Evadne!”

Erica, pale with fear, closed her eyes in panic.

Evadne, momentarily engulfed by immense terror, felt her pupils contract violently, her heart turned to ashes.

In that instant, all her senses seemed to close off, with images flashing before her eyes like a flickering movie reel.

Each frame was filled with memories of Thaddeus.

She recalled their heart–pounding first meeting thirteen years ago, remembered the sense of them fighting side by side on the battlefield of Zenithia, their wedding, their divorce, and their moments of mutual comfort.

Taking a deep breath, Evadne found herself in tears.

It was said that facing death, one’s true feelings were the most real. Was she thinking of Thaddeus because she still had feelings for him, or was it because she harbored too much hatred?

Suddenly, a sharp sound of wind cut through the air, vibrating in her ears.

Then, in the next instant, her death did not descend.

Mr. Ward, momentarily caught off guard, felt a sharp pain in his wrist. The knife in his hand was kicked away, landing in the pool!

It was only then that Evadne turned her head abruptly.

When she saw Thaddeus, with his frosty demeanor, appearing like a divine figure in her trembling pupils, her eyes, once resembling ruins, suddenly ignited like a wildfire. Her heart pounded, and tears silently circled in the depths of her eyes.

He had come.

He really had come.

Thaddeus, his breath grew heavy as he cast her a brief and intense glance.

Seeing the crimson blood on his beloved’s arm, a surge of rage welled up in his rising and falling chest. His fists clenched tightly into fists.

Mr. Ward, a man who didn’t blink an eye at murder, found himself chilled to the bone under Thaddeus‘ fierce gaze.

What terrified him more, however, was the unexpected appearance of Thaddeus

With his forehead furrowed, Thaddeus stood tall and imposing in front of Evadne, resembling an impassable iceberg, providing her with an unshakeable protection. “I seem to have seen you somewhere. Are you one of Elspeth’s people?”

Evadne’s heart tightened. Jason, slumped on the ground, looked on in seething anger.

She could understand Elspeth’s desire to harm her. But what she couldn’t comprehend was that, with Elspeth’s cunning and scheming nature, they had maintained a fake peace for so long. Why would Elspeth suddenly act like a deranged person, eager to bring her to her demise?

Taking such hasty actions would only expose herself.

Or,Elspeth’s actual target was Erica, and she was just an incidental matter?

But why would Elspeth want to harm Erica? Did she uncover some deep and dark secret?

The rest three assailants, upon seeing Thaddeus‘ sudden appearance, were visibly terrified.

But at this point, there was no turning back. They had to fight back to make it out alive.

“Who’s Elspeth? I don’t know her,” Mr. Ward, gripping his throbbing wrist, sneered at Thaddeus. “But it doesn’t matter. As long as none of you make it out alive tonight, that’s enough.”

He dared to make a move against Evadne.

Thaddeus, who did he amount to? Just bastard of the Abernathy family!

“I was going to let you surrender peacefully. But since you’ve hurt my woman, now, I just want your life,” Thaddeus‘ fists clenched tighter, his figure like lightning, rushing towards Mr. Ward.

His woman?

Heat rushed to Evadne’s cheeks and her breath hitched.

But she had no time to dwell on his words as Thaddeus and Mr. Ward were already locked in combat, their punches landing with force, creating a chilling
