His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 390

Thaddeus retreated to his study, waiting for Gordon’s arrival.

He contemplated the words the young maid had whispered to him. Standing by the window and smoking, his gaze was deep and mysterious, yet his heart was pounding. So, she had private contact with Evadne, and they were in constant touch?

Why?

Evadne, what were you trying to do? Why did you always make me uneasy?

A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Thaddeus called out in response, took a deep drag on his cigarette, and flicked the ashes with his calloused fingers. The door opened, and Gordon entered briskly, then he closed the door behind him. He handed Thaddeus a note with both hands.

“Mr. Thaddeus, this is the address Erica asked me to give you. She will be there tonight, meeting with Ms, Evadne.”

Thaddeus felt his heart tighten, and the fingertips holding the cigarette trembling slightly.

He turned to take the note, glanced at it, and memorized the address.

“What else did the maid tell you?”

Gordon shook his head. “Mr. Thaddeus, I have a feeling that she might be a spy planted by Ms. Evadne in the Abernathy family.”

“No need for your feelings; she definitely is.” Thaddeus‘ voice was slightly husky as he clenched the note in his hand.

–

Evadne, always orchestrated things under his nose, manipulating events without him realizing.

“What does Ms. Evadne want?”

Gordon suddenly brightened. “Hey! Could it be that Ms. Evadne still has feelings for you, so she left a spy in the Abernathy family to keep an eye on your every move?! If that’s the case, Mrs. Abernathy still has you in her heart, Mr. Thaddeus! That’s a great news!”

Thaddeus gave him a stern look, even the smoke he exhaled seemed filled with resignation.

He wasn’t conceited enough to believe that Evadne was doing all this because she still had feelings for him. The Ashbourne family’s heiress was ambitious and busy, she wouldn’t have the time for such things.

There was only one possibility.

There was something in the Abernathy family that Evadne couldn’t rest easy about, something that required her close attention.

Was it for Myra? Was she still plotting revenge against Elspeth?

If so, why did Erica reveal their plot to him today? They could have kept it private!

Did they want him to help them?

Thaddeus‘ gaze turned red, as if his frozen heart was reinvigorated. A strong sense of protection surged within him.

“Mr. Thaddeus, do you want me to accompany you tonight?” Gordon asked with concern.

Thaddeus took a deep breath and shook his head slightly. “No, Erica only invited me. That means they don’t want others to know their secret.”

Gordon couldn’t help but worry for him. “But Mr. Thaddeus, does Mrs. Abernathy know that you’re going over? If it’s just Erica’s idea, won’t Mrs. Abernathy might get angry when she sees you.”

“In that case, I’ll just secretly follow her, keeping a safe distance.”

Thaddeus‘ stern gaze softened when he thought of Evadne. “She’s a constant source of mischief. I can’t keep my eyes off her.”

At exactly nine o’clock in the evening, Glynnis, dressed in black and wore a baseball cap, left the Windermere Estate through the back door.

As soon as she got into a cab and left, a black car slowly emerged from the darkness.

“Ms. Glynnis, should we follow?”

The driver was one of Elspeth’s trusted aides, also serving as her personal assistant. Over the years, he had been helping them with various tasks. Tonight, he was assigned to assist Glynnis.

“No need to tail her. Tonight, this traitor, who eats from our plate and betrays us, must meet her demise. If we follow too closely, it might cause trouble if some unlucky CCTV captures us.” Glynnis had learned a lot from Elspeth when it came to mischief.

“Yes, Ms. Glynnis. I’ll wait for Madam’s instructions. When the time is right, I’ll take action” Mr. Ward responded mechanically, showing no emotions as he spoke.

“How do you plan to handle it?”

Glynnis raised her eyebrows, asking with a lazy tone, “Is my mother intending to make her disappear for some days, or to make her disappear forever?”
