Chapter 427

The phone in Thaddeus‘ hand buzzed, it was a call from Gordon.

“Mr. Thaddeus! Everything is set! Tonight at seven, prime time, every news station will be broadcasting Ward’s arrest, I’m certain Elspeth will see it!”

“Good.”

Thaddeus‘ lips curved into a satisfied smirk. “Afterwards, keep an eye on Elspeth and the situation at the prison. If anything changes, get in touch with Evadne and me immediately.”

“Roger that, Mr. Thadaddeus!”

Gordon hesitated for a moment, then blurted out. “Congrats on getting back together with Mrs. Abemathy, Mr. Thaddeus. I hope you’ll keep her happy from now on, treat her like the queen that she is. Make sure you make up for those lost three years!”

Before Thaddeus could reply, Gordon cheekily hung up.

“Let’s not. We should still give each other some privacy!

Evadne’s eyes sparkled as she retorted, “And who is your Mrs. Abamathy? All I have is a divorce certificate, no marriage certificate “Who else could it be but the lovely Ms. Ashbourne?”

Thaddeus took her hand, gently kissed the back of it, his eyes filled with tendemess and longing, “As long as you’re willing, I can promise you a lifetime of love and happiness.”

“Hmph, as if I care.”
