His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 781

Chapter 781

Mr. and Mrs. Abernathy arrived at the abandoned factory grounds at the same time as Jareth; their steps echoed through the desolation.

When Jareth stepped out of his sports car, his chiseled face was as pale as marble, except for the piercing eyes that glinted ominously under the headlights.

“Where’s Marilla? Any news?!” He spoke with a strained voice and with his lips cracked.

His hoarse voice made his words sound broken and fragmented. Seeing the pain in his eyes, Thaddeus felt a pang of sympathy.

In a single night, Jareth had been struck by blow after blow, each as devastating as a thunderbolt, which left him visibly shaken to the core.

“Lily was here early. She’s on the trail, but I’ve lost contact with her!” Evadne clenched her jaw when pulling out her cell phone, “Every damn cell signal is blocked here. The kidnappers chose this place on purpose. Cunning bastards!”

“Evadne, keep cool. I’ve got a hunch. Gordon’s already contacted Abernathy Telecom, our family’s company. They’re sending portable satellite backpacks and some cutting–edge gear to restore the signal,” Thaddeus said, while wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her close.

Thaddeus was prepared for this scenario, as he had lived through a similar ordeal in his youth.

“Lily’s got skills. She’ll be okay. She’ll find Marilla.”

Jareth’s pale lips trembled as he repeated the words like a mantra; it was hard to tell whether what he said

was for their comfort or his own.

Ignoring them, he started towards the back hills, only to be intercepted by Thaddeus.

“Jareth, where are you going?”

“To find Marilla.” Jareth’s gaze was dazed and unfocused.

“Alone? You won’t find her by blindly charging over those hills!”

Thaddeus’s eyes burned with intensity, “Don’t panic. The team Evadne and I brought is already spreading out to search. Captain Ashbourne will be here any minute!”

“Don’t panic? Thaddeus, they’ve taken Marilla, she’s my life!”

Jareth’s voice broke into hysteria, and his eyes were bloodshot, “I’ve got nothing left, only Marilla. If anything happens to her, if anything happens to her…”
