His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 511

Jareth’s eyes snapped, his entire body tensing like a cat ready to pounce.

“Bro Jareth” was a term of endearment from his wife. Why on earth was Aaron using it?

How long had he been away for this scoundrel to invade his home?

‘Aaron, you’re still here?”

During the standoff, Evadne and Thaddeus heard the commotion and walked over.

The quick–witted Evadne, sensing a confrontation brewing, eyed the two men suspiciously.

“Oh, I’m having some trouble with this lock. Thankfully, Mr. Fairhaven arrived just in time to help me out. I’m off now.”

Aaron turned and flashed a brilliant smile at his sister–in–law as if nothing had happened. “Evadne,” he said, “Once I’m less busy, I’ll take you out for a real treat. You shouldn’t spend all your time indoors with just Thaddeus–it’ll be monotonous.”

Thaddeus stood speechless.

Even though he understood it was in jest and Aaron was family, Thaddeus couldn’t help feeling a tinge of jealousy.

After Aaron left, Jareth remained on edge, a sense of foreboding clouding his thoughts.

He had a hunch that during his absence, Aaron had met Marilla, and they’d likely had quite a bit of interaction!

“Jareth, you seem troubled. Is something wrong?” Thaddeus asked with concern.

“It’s nothing.” Jareth exhaled deeply and tried to compose himself.

“Sorry, I asked Aaron to drop by with some documents without telling you about it first.”

Evadne, ever perceptive, immediately sensed Jareth’s concern and took the initiative to apologize, “You and Thaddeus are like brothers, but after all, this

Taken aback, Thaddeus wrapped his arm around Evadne’s waist and eagerly explained on behalf of his buddy, “Don’t overthink it. Jareth isn’t petty.” Jareth’s eyes widened as he waved his hands dismissively, “Please don’t say that! It would be my pleasure to have you stay. Thad and I are both thrilled, and Marilla is even happier since you came. Her mood’s improved so much, she talks more. Frankly, I’d love for you two to stay until Christmas! I won’t have a single complaint!”

Evadne leaned into her husband’s embrace, their eyes meeting in silent understanding, “I really do feel bad for imposing this long. Although I’d hate to leave Marilla, it’s not very convenient for you lovebirds to have us around.”

Hearing this, Mr. Fairhaven felt a little embarrassed.

Once a renowned playboy, Jareth had been utterly transformed by Marilla. To him, love and fidelity were now sacred. Evadne’s words made him blush like a boy experiencing his first crush.
