His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 257

Chapter 257

Crash!

The sky, a gloomy shade of white, rumbled ominously with a sudden thunderclap.

It seemed as if the bolt was aimed right at Thaddeus, paralyzing him completely.

Only his heart was pounding fiercely, waves of complex emotions crashing within him.

“Professor Leo,” Thaddeus‘ voice was taut, almost a whisper, “how long has Ms. Ilana been helping you with the patrols?”

“About three years now,” Professor Leo replied. “She’s been a great help.”

Those were the three years since he and Evadne got married.

Thaddeus‘ heart gave a painful lurch.

A bitter wave of anguish surged up his throat, almost suffocating him.

All these years, she were hiding the truth, doing the same thing he was doing.

But he had his reasons. What were hers?”

Thaddeus‘ head throbbed painfully as wave after wave of confusion threatened to overcome him.

“Looks like a storm’s coming,” Professor Leo muttered, glancing at the darkening sky and pulling out his walkie–talkie to contact Captain Sean. “Be careful out there, Sean! Especially with Ilana.”

“Don’t worry, professor, came the prompt reply.

Thaddeus turned abruptly and headed towards the entrance of the Misty Mountain trail.

“Mr. Thaddeus! Where are you going?” Professor Leo called after him.

Thaddeus didn’t stop but answered silently in his mind–to find her.

The sky was a dark gray, rumbling with the threat of a storm.

It was still daytime, but the sky was as dark as night.

“Seriously, who goes hiking in this weather?” one of the team members grumbled as they trudged along.

“No use complaining now,” Captain Sean said, his voice barely audible over the wind and rain. “Our job is to ensure the safety of the hikers.”
