His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 768

Thad patted

veiny hand to steady his emotions:

“I know, you’ve been digging into your father’s death for years, and you’ve always suspected that Gary had the strongest motive, but you just couldn’t nail him without the proof. Now, April’s suddenly filing for divorce from Gary, and she’s drawn up a whopping settlement. She must have something on him that could bury him. Even if it’s not connected to your father’s passing, it’s enough to make Gary eat his own wicked deeds behind bars for the rest of his miserable life.”

“It had to be Gary, who else could it be?!”

Jareth replayed his father’s demise in his mind, feeling the agony wracking his heart; his eyes turned reddening with pain, “Back then, he and my dad went down to Spring City for a business trip; they took a chopper over the sea, but mid–flight, the main gearbox malfunctioned, sending the chopper spiraling uncontrollably into the ocean before it sank rapidly! My dad was wearing a life vest, but the sinking was too fast, and the cabin was sealed shut he had no chance to escape! He perished alongside three other top execs and the pilot! But somehow. only Gary survived!”

Thad’s lips tightened into a cold, straight line.

“How could it be such a coincidence. How could only he be so lucky?!”

Jareth, feeling his heart wrenching, slammed his hand on the table, “My father broke his back for the Fairhaven Group, he was a charity saint, who cleaned up the family’s shady past and put us on the straight and narrow. Such a great, hardworking, kind man was he why would the heavens claim his life?! I refuse to believe that fate is so blind!”

Thad’s expression grew somber, “Everyone perished, except for Gary. Indeed, that’s bizarre.”

“Exactly! Jareth doesn’t have nine lives!” Dean couldn’t contain his rage.

“Gary managed to escape the cabin because he had a compact emergency hammer with him. He shattered the window and swam to the surface.”

Lily’s voice was hoarse with hatred, “Afterward, he claimed it was his habit to carry such a tool and argued that he was incapable of saving Mr. Fairhaven because he was a poor swimmer- if he had tried, both would’ve been lost to the sea. But who would buy such a lame excuse? He was just taking advantage of his power within the Fairhaven Group back then, to bully a young master and a family left with a widow and an orphan!”

Thad fell silent for a moment before speaking calmly, “Even if Gary had I killed him‘ written across his face, without solid evidence after all these years, it’s hard to pin the crime on him. Think of my mother’s case; if it weren’t for Erica recording Elspeth’s confession and finding the maid who had served my mother and could testify in court, I’d never have avenged my mother.”

Jareth clenched his teeth, his eyes burning with fury.

“Maybe, just maybe, we might get lucky with April.”

Thad suddenly furrowed his brows, “As Gary’s wife, she must know many secrets.”
