His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 329

“Son! What a surprise to hear from you!”

Frederic’s face lit up instantly, his warm tone contrasting sharply with his usually aloof and dignified demeanor:

Thaddeus fluttered his long lashes.

In his memory, his father had never spoken to him with such paternal affection, nor had he ever referred to him affectionately as “son“.

Only in the presence of his elder brother did he genuinely act like a doting father. So, in Frederic’s heart, was Elspeth the only woman he loved, and his elder brother the only son he cherished?

The irony was palpable, yet Thaddeus could say nothing.

“Dad, how have you been feeling?” Chad’s deep voice came over the line.

Chad’s voice was distinctive, resonating from his chest, clear even from a distance.

“I’m doing well, son. And you? How’s your health? Everything going smoothly? Any relapses?” Frederic had flown to the States last year to visit his eldest son but had been too tied up this year to make another trip.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Chad paused, then asked with concern, “I heard Thaddeus got hurt and is in the hospital. How is he? Is it serious?”

Thaddeus frowned slightly.

He didn’t resent his brother’s concern. It was just unexpected that his brother, who hadn’t returned to Elmsworth for over a decade and lived abroad, was aware of his current situation.

Frederic explained, “Thaddeus just had major surgery. He was unconscious for a few days, but he’s awake now.”

Chad asked, “Are you at the hospital to see Thaddeus?”

“Yes, your grandfather and I are in his room.”

“Could you pass the phone to Thaddeus? I’d like to speak with him.”

Frederic complied and walked over to hand the phone to Thaddeus. “Your brother wants to speak with you.”

Thaddeus hesitated before accepting the phone, holding it up to his ear. “Chad.”

“Thaddeus, I heard about your injury and I’m quite concerned. I wish I could fly back to see you.” Chad’s voice was filled with concern.

“Chad, I’m fine. You shouldn’t have to endure a long flight for my sake.”

Thaddeus managed a small smile, trying to reassure him. “I’m doing fine now. There’s nothing to worry about.”

“Your surgery was performed by Miss Evadne, wasn’t it?”

Thaddeus was taken aback. “Yes.”

“I know, Miss Evadne is my sister–in–law. You two divorced this year, but I didn’t expect her to put aside past disagreements to operate on you. Miss Evadne is truly forgiving and generous.”

Even though you two can’t be husband and wife anymore, given her noble character and kindness, you should still maintain a cordial relationship with her.” Chad’s voice held a hint of regret.

Thaddeus’s lips tightened.

His brother, though living abroad, seemed to know everything about his life.

I didn’t appreciate what I had. I brought this on myself, and I owe her so much.” Thaddeus clenched his fist, his eyes filled with
