His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 543

After everything was settled, it was well past midnight.

Evadne, worrying about Beverly’s safety, had initially planned to have her stay at her villa from that night until the dust settled on Byron’s case. It was not only to ensure the witness was well–protected, but also because she genuinely liked this girl who, despite- her unfortunate background, was resilient and strong–willed.

However, Beverly was adamant about going home, citing her mother’s fragile heart condition. She feared the mere discovery of her nighttime absence might be enough to trigger a cardiac episode, let alone the potential fallout from visiting them.

Fortunately, her mother hadn’t reached out that night, which likely meant she was still asleep.

It seemed that even God was in support of the brave girl’s decision.

Gordon escorted Beverly to the car, taking care of her every need with a tenderness that seemed to spring out of nowhere, like a monkey that suddenly gained wisdom.

Thaddeus stepped out of the door, wrapping his arm around Evadne’s shoulder. With rough yet warm fingertips, he gently wiped away the teardrops at the corner of her eyes, then cupped the back of her neck and planted a kiss on her forehead.

“Evadne, it’s late, and I’ve caught you yawning more than once. Your eyelids are drooping. You stay put; Gordon and I will escort Miss Higgins. Just wait for me at home.”

“Don’t you know why I’m yawning so much?”

Evadne pouted her red lips, “You’re all charged up, but you’ve drained my battery. Even if I were a power bank, I need a break.”

A surge of confidence filled Thaddeus’s chest. Her exhaustion was a bodily testament to how satisfied she was.

In bed, he was a natural, far better than he was in the kitchen.

Unable to resist, he captured her inviting lips, his own pressing against hers as his tongue boldly pried open her mouth.
