His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

hapter 372

Camille’s sudden cardiac arrest was no small matter, so Arnold rushed her to the hospital and informed Evadne.

He understood his sister’s temper; if he kept this from her any longer, their sibling relationship would likely crumble.

The next morning. Evadne hurriedly returned from Skyrim to Elmsworth and went to the hospital where Camille was staying, accompanied by Jason.

“What the hell happened? How did Camille have a cardiac arrest?” Evadne asked anxiously, tears welling in her eyes.

“The doctors said that Camille has always been frail with a heart condition, but it isn’t too severe.”

A heart disease?

Evadne shuddered, and Jason quickly stepped forward to steady her.

She felt awful.

Not only was Camille her student, but she was also her best friend. Yet she knew nothing about her physical condition.

She felt like a failure as a mentor.

Remembering the phone call Camille had with her family the night before, Arnold clenched his fists silently, his voice husky, “She was overly emotional, which led to her cardiac arrest. Thank God I was there, otherwise the consequences would have been unthinkable.”

The night he took Camille to the hospital, he called Evadne and briefly explained how they ran into each other. But he didn’t tell Evadne about the conflict between Camille and her family.

“Why was she emotional? Why?” Evadne always liked to dig deep into the issues of those around her.

In her memory, Camille was always carefree and cheerful, as if nothing bothered her.

How could she?

“Evadne, let’s wait until Camille wakes up. She’ll tell you everything herself.” Arnold recalled the lengthy kiss they shared, his cheeks heating up and his mind slightly dazed. “Mr. Ashbourne, were you with Ms. Evert all last night? Did you take her to your home?” Jason asked curiously.

Evadne’s curiosity was piqued.

After all, it was the first time her brother, who had been single for thirty years, brought a woman home!

Wasn’t he always averse to women?

“Yes,” Arnold admitted honestly, “It was an emergency last night. I was afraid she would be harassed again, so I had to take her to my place.”

“And then what? What else happened, Arnold?” Evadne shook Arnold’s arm anxiously, asking, “What else did you guys do, huh?”

“You are such a curious kitten, with so many questions!” Arnold gave her a playful tap on her forehead, but his heart was racing strangely fast.

He didn’t know if Camille remembered the kiss that left him in turmoil the night before.

Just then, the door to the hospital room opened, and a nurse stepped out.

“The patient is awake.”

Without another word, Evadne pushed the door open and entered, full of worry.

Jason stayed outside the door, looking at Arnold’s increasingly–flushed face, and asked in surprise, “Mr. Ashbourne, are you running a fever?”

“Huh?” Arnold was snapped back to reality.

“Your face is so red. Are you okay?”

Arnold’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly tried to laugh it off, “I’m fine, I’m fine.”

Jason coughed lightly and arched the corners of his lips upwards silently.

Inside the hospital room, Camille was weakly propped against the head of the bed, with an IV drip in her arm. The morning sun shone on her pale face, giving her a heartbreaking beauty.

“Camille..” Evadne softly called her name, her eyes reddening.

She could hardly recognize the woman in front of her who had lost so much weight as her carefree, sunny friend.
