His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chatper 649

Chapter 649

After a few rings, the call connected.

“Thaddeus, I’m honestly surprised and delighted you’d call me,” Chad’s voice was as warm and kind as ever, though tinged with a hint of frailty.

“Chad, how have you been holding up?”

Thaddeus, by nature, wanted to cut straight to the chase, but desperate times called for some pleasantries first.

“Oh, same old. Popping pills like candy just to keep ticking, so much so I’m practically balding.”

Chad cracked a joke, “Tell me, Thaddeus, next time we meet, do you reckon I’ll look like I’m sporting a monk’s tonsure?” “Chad, I’m actually in this country,” Thaddeus replied seriously, not in the mood for banter.

“Oh? Really? When did you get in?”

“Night before last.”

Thaddeus took a deep breath and spoke in a low tone, “Chad, I’ve got something serious to discuss. Can we meet?”

That evening, Thaddeus and Gordon drove to the address Chad had provided. All the way there, Thaddeus‘ jaw was set in a firm line.

Though they were brothers by blood and had got on well in their youth, and despite not sharing the same mother, his older brother had taken care of him a lot.

But after more than a decade apart, with only holiday greetings exchanged, Chad didn’t feel all that close to him anymore. Respect was the predominant sentiment.

“Mr. Abernathy, we’re here!”

Thaddeus snapped out of his reverie and slowly lifted his gaze.

Before him stood an astonishing mansion, its seclusion striking an impressive contrast to the outside world.

“Wow…that’s some estate, easily rivals the grandeur of Mrs. Abernathy’s Silverlake Harbor!”

Gordon’s mouth hung open in awe, “Looks like Mr. Chad Abernathy’s been living it up abroad. This place must’ve cost hundreds of millions, eh?”

“Nonsense.”

Thaddeus‘ lips thinned, his competitive streak flaring up, “It’s nothing compared to Evadne’s place.”
