His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 396

hapter 396

Evadne stared blankly at Thaddeus‘ handsome face; his present smile was a gentle radiance she had never seen before.

She cleared her throat softly, quickly averting her gaze, unwilling to meet his sparkling eyes. As if one more glance would reveal some unspeakable secret. She realized he had changed a lot.

In the past, Thaddeus was cold as ice, like a chilling abyss.

Now he was as if he had transformed into a warm spring surrounding her, giving her a sense of safety.

“Ahem, well.”

A born bachelor Aaron couldn’t stand the romantic atmosphere and broke it, “It’s just a suit. Why wash it? Our Ashbourne family is wealthy enough to afford replacing a piece of clothing. Evadne, just buy Mr. Abernathy a new one. I will cover the cost!”

“Thanks, Captain Ashbourne.” Thaddeus‘ lips curled up slightly, his face calm.

“Aaron, are you sure you want to buy it?”

Evadne’s mood relaxed a bit, her eyebrows raised slightly, “If I am not mistaken, Mr. Abernathy’s sult is a high–end custom made from a well–known brand that serves the royal family. It’s not something that money can easily buy. Even if it was available, I suspect your annual salary, Aaron, would only cover the cost of one of Mr. Abernathy’s sleeves.”

Damn! Cost that much?!

Aaron’s face instantly went sour. He didn’t care about losing face in front of his sister; he blurted out, “I take it back! Forget about what I just said!”

Anyway, he wouldn’t feel embarrassed in front of his own sister who he had witnessed growing up.

Thaddeus‘ smile deepened at the corners of his mouth, his gentle gaze deeply fixed on the young woman, “No wonder you’re a genius designer, Haron. Your eye for quality is truly unique.”

Evadne was taken aback, her eyes meeting his, “When did you find out?”

“I guessed it at Myra’s birthday party, when Myra appeared in a stunning black evening gown. No, in fact, I should have guessed it the first time I saw you handling clothes in Ms. Eunice’s studio.” Thaddeus confessed fondly.

Evadne bit her crimson lips, tears creeping into her eyes.

At the moment, a mix of emotions welled up in her heart, intertwining into something indescribable.

Thaddeus suddenly remembered the suit that he still carefully kept in his closet, now worn and tattered. It was the suit that Evadne, once his wife, had sewn for him with painstaking care day and night.

Each stitch, each thread, was filled with love.

But such treatment, such affection, Thaddeus might never receive again.

He should have known then, he should have understood then, how exceptional, how perfect, how flawless his woman was.

But at that time, he was blind and saw nothing.

The sight of Evadne’s sorrowful expression hit him hard, making his already shattered heart even more fragile.

He owed her too much.

Even if he spent a lifetime making up for it, he wasn’t sure if he could ever compensate her fully:
