Chapter 394

Among the entire Ashbourne family, only Evadne and Elvis had the audacity to speak so recklessly.

The bodyguards couldn’t help but chuckle, which only added to Avery’s embarrassment!

Thaddeus raised an eyebrow quietly. The usually polite and composed Mr. Chambers was gradually losing his cool.

It would be hypocritical to say that there was no satisfaction In this.

“I’m just here to check on Evadne. Does Elvis have to be so abrasive?” Avery’s bespoke suit could not hide his anger, his chest rising and falling with each breath. “Then say you’re here to see Evadne. Why bring Emeric into this?”

Elvis‘ disdain was evident as he coldly looked at Avery, “He’s not your dad, and we’re not kid anymore. Such words are embarrassing.”

Avery’s eyebrows furrowed, his face became darkened.

But Avery was no ordinary man. He had gone through many hardships during his youth in Helgen, which had shaped his flexible character.

He quickly adjusted his mentality, pleading softly, “Elvis, I didn’t mean anything else. I’m just worried about her. I heard she’s been hurt, and I just wanted to see how she’s doing.”

“Our family has kept this under wraps. It’s impressive how quickly you got wind of it, Mr. Chambers. It seems you’re always keeping tabs on us, the Ashbourne family.” Elvis narrowed his clear eyes, his words filled with sarcasm, “But Evadne is still recovering, and the doctor has advised against any stress. She can’t see you. Please leave.” Avery was unwilling to accept it, “Elvis.”

“Oh, one more thing. Even if you bring Emeric, you won’t be able to see her. Don’t bother.”

Elvis grinned at Thaddeus, “Thad, let’s go.”

Thad?

Thaddeus felt a strange sensation when Elvis addressed him so cordially.

He felt a chill down his spine.

“What are you waiting for? Let’s go!” Elvis slapped Thaddeus‘ back.

“Alright, brother–in–law.” The man replied casually.

Elvis raised an eyebrow.

Once he got used to this vibe between them. It was actually quite enjoyable.

Especially when Thaddeus called him in that way, he found it quite pleased.

Avery felt a pang in his heart, his face turning pale.

-He didn’t know what had happened in the past few days, and he had no idea how Thaddeus had managed to win over Elvis, someone he himself had failed to do so!

Suddenly, Elvis stopped, “Mr. Chambers, you should know that nothing forcibly done is going to be agreeable. Some things and people are not yours no matter how hard you try. Besides, you already have a beautiful woman by your side, who must be your type. Otherwise you wouldn’t keep her close, right?”

Avery gasped, his fists clenched, his heart pounding!

With red eyes, he watched as Elvis and Thaddeus disappeared into the corridor. The invisible flames were about to consume him!

“Mr. Chambers.”

The oppressive aura of the son of the Ashbourne family was too strong. He was now sweating profusely, anxiously asking, “What did Mr. Waverley mean by that? The- ‘beautiful woman‘ he mentioned, is he referring to Ms. Archer?”

Who else could it be!

But what worried Avery more was that Elvis already knew there was a woman in Elmsworth who bore a striking resemblance to Evadne, and this woman was right by his
