Over at the Abernathy Group, the party was still in full swing.

Chapter 185

But the mood had noticeably cooled down since Ada was whisked away by Evadne.

Initially, Edith had dressed to the nines, hoping to showcase her talent in front of the international superstar and stroke her own ego. But with Ada gone, there was no chance for her to perform anymore. All her preparations had gone to waste

All because of that sly fox, Evadne!

Outside the banquet h. Thaddeus stood tall and straight by the French windows with icy cold aura

He kept his eyes on the direction where the Rolls Royce had disappeared, his breathing heavy and his fists clenched

Mr Thaddeus, I hate to say it but I think we’ve been played by Ms Evadne, Gordon said, wiping his sweat nervously. The trending topics are all about the K Group now We’re nowhere to be found. And the news of Ms Evadne taking Ada away publicly has spread like wildfire, even the chairman knows about it. People are doubting our capability and questioning the overall quality of our hotel.”

By the end of his report Gordon was sweating buckets.

This was a foreseeable outcome. When Evadne struck, she left no breathing room for her opponent.

Thaddeus stared at the direction where the Rolls–Royce lights had long disappeared, his voice hoarse, “When did you switch your address for her? Weren’t you always calling her Mrs. Abemathy?”

Gordon took a sharp breath in, “As long as she doesn’t mess with you, she’s Mrs. Abernathy. If she does, she’s Ms. Evadne.”

It’s just a name, call her what you want.”

Thaddeus took a deep breath, his eyes darkening. “And I’m not angry. Ms. Evadne has always been like this, hasn’t she?”

Gordon was taken aback. Every time Thaddeus competed with Mrs. Abernathy, he was gritting his teeth. And now, with such a big incident, wasn’t he even angry?

Could it be he enjoy being tormented?

“But how could Evadne get in? This party requires an invitation for each guest, and the hotel security is very strict,” Thaddeus couldn’t help but be curious.

Gordon said there was a brief glitch in the security system before Mrs. Abernathy came in. But the hotel’s network equipment was just serviced a few days ago, it couldn’t have broken down this quickly. They suspected hacker interference or a virus.

A hacker? Thaddeus frowned.

Could this also be Evadne’s doing? Was she capable of this?

Or did one of her brothers help her again?
