His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 548

The following day, Beverly finally woke from her coma in the late afternoon.

As she opened her eyes, the first things she saw were her mom and Gordon, who had been vigilantly waiting by her bedside for her to come to.

Overwhelmed with emotion and gratitude, she threw herself into her mother’s embrace. Mother and daughter, reunited after the ordeal, wept together in each other’s arms.

Gordon, feeling his age, was also moved to tears by the touching scene before quickly wiping them away. He had to maintain the composure expected of his years.

“Mom, nothing you say is going to change my mind.”

Beverly gently wiped her mother’s tears away, her gaze filled with resolve. “I’ve decided to testify in court. If I don’t fight for my own fate, not even Ms. Evadne or Mr. Abernathy can help me.”

Mrs. Higgins choked back sobs. “Beverly, I just can’t bear to see you hurt.”

“Mom, if you really care for me, then please don’t stop me. I want to stand up for myself and for the other girls Byron hurt, to fight for justice.”

Gordon’s heart raced as he watched Beverly’s transformation, her determined eyes reminiscent of Evadne’s spirit.

“Beverly, I was wrong, I was so stupid.”

Mrs. Higgins nodded vigorously, holding her daughter tight. “I respect your decision.”

Just as Gordon prepared to leave quietly, Beverly turned to her mother with a grateful smile, “Mom, this is Mr. Gordon, Mr. Abernathy’s right–hand man. Yesterday, he went to great lengths to save me. He’s my hero.”

“Thank you! Oh, thank you so much, sir!” Mrs. Higgins was awash in gratitude.
