His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 719

The news that Bevis had been ousted from the boardroom by Ms. Ashbourne, and subsequently fired for embezzling company funds, spread like wildfire through the entire K Group.

It was like a plot straight out of a feel–good movie, delighting everyone to the core!

Bevis, emboldened by his status as the chairman’s own brother, had been throwing his weight around the company for far too long, demanding kickbacks and abusing his power, which already had exasperated other members. Ms. Ashbourne stepping into her new role and ousting such a parasitic leech had everyone breathing a sigh of relief. How could they not rejoice?

Bevis returned home, his face the picture of defeat, and in a fit of anger, he tossed his coat at the maid the moment he stepped in the house.

The maid, caught off guard, failed to catch it, and the coat fell to the floor. Over such a trivial matter, Bevis erupted in rage and kicked the maid so hard she fell to the ground and couldn’t get up for a long time.
