Chapter 375

To Evadne, it felt like a sharp dagger piercing through her, going in white, coming out red.

“Thaddeus, I’ve never trampled on your dignity. After the divorce, wasn’t it you who shamelessly chased after me every single time?”

Evadne’s eyes welled up with tears, yet she maintained a defiant smirk, attractive but heartbreaking, “You discarded your own dignity, and now you’re blaming me. Have you lost your sense of shame?”

She shouldn’t have come.

She shouldn’t have given a damn about him!

Knowing this would happen, he should’ve been left to his own disaster!

Thaddeus‘ breath hitched, a sudden wave of dizziness,washing over him causing his tall figure to wobble slightly.

“What the hell are you doing?!”

Whoosh!

Before she finished speaking, a small stone, with perfect aim, hit Thaddeus squarely on the back of his head!

Thaddeus winced in pain, his brows furrowing instantly.

At this moment, Chasel was already striding over, reaching to grab the collar of the man’s shirt.

But Thaddeus was quick as lightning!

With a swift sidestep, Thaddeus let Chasel’s attempt fall through, causing the latter to stumble forward a few steps. Tall and lanky as he was, his figure in that moment looked like a praying mantis with its claws out..

Evadne, originally still fuming, bit her lip to suppress a grin at Chasel’s pathetic sight.

Titling his head, Thaddeus ran a hand over the back of his neck, his handsome face shadowed with an alluring touch of menace, “That’s your level of a sneak attack?”

“I’m doing the sneak attack, but at least I’m better than you, who behaved like a hoodlum on this dark night!”

Chasel dusted himself off as he got up from the ground, still somewhat shaken by the man’s earlier reaction, “You’re divorced and still damn laying hands on her. Is this how the President of the Abernathy group would react?”

“What exactly is your relation to her?” Thaddeus glared at Chasel, his eyes full of menace.

This weak sniveling man would dare to attack him for Evadne’s sake.”

It was clear, he too held Evadne close to his heart..

As Chasel opened his mouth, unsure of how to introduce himself, Evadne interjected in a soft voice, “His name is Chasel Bright, a’brain surgeon I brought over from

overseas.”

A brain surgeon?

Thaddeus immediately understood what she meant but remained silent.

“I came here this time, not for anything else, but for your illness.” Evadne’s gaze was steady as she looked at Thaddeus, devoid of any superfluous emotion, like a doctor studying her patient.

Such a distant look was infuriating for Thaddeus.

“I’m not sick.” He responded coldly.

“There’s no need to put on a brave face. Nobody knows better than you whether you’re okay or not.

Evadne said seriously, “Last time, your head suffered a severe blow. Even though I performed surgery on you, the operation wasn’t very successful. Now when you become emotionally agitated, your body starts to tremble uncontrollably, and you lose control of your actions. In the long run, you’ll start to experience hallucinations, fainting spells, and in severe cases, even paralysis. Do you really want to end up like that? Aren’t you afraid of how heartbroken your grandpa will be when he finds out?”

Chasel looked at Evadne in disbelief.

Thaddeus‘ brain surgery was performed by her?! Unbelievable!

“Dr. Bright is a renowned brain specialist inland. I brought him to Elmsworth specifically to treat your post–operative symptoms.”
