His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 740

“Deaf?!”

Thaddeus‘ chiseled features remained impassive, but Evadne’s stunning eyes widened in shock, her voice bursting forth in excitement.

“Yes! Absolutely certain! I’ve got the diagnosis report right here… I’ll send it to you both straight away! Glynnis is still at the hospital. They say she’s completely deaf in her left ear and her hearing has significantly declined in the right. She’s already using a hearing aid!”

Gordon’s voice, filled with uncontainable glee, echoed around the room, “Mr. Abernathy, you’re too much! That wasn’t just a slap you gave her, it was like you unleashed the fury of the gods!”

“Gordon, you’re exaggerating,” Thaddeus scolded softly, his brows slightly knitted together.

Evadne, however, burst into laughter, clapping her hands in delight until they turned red, “Hahaha! That’s what I’m talking about! Karma at its finest! She spent her days mocking Marilla; let’s see her strut around now!”

Evadne realized Thaddeus‘ intense gaze was fixed on her, her laughter suddenly stopping, her cheeks flushing with a hint of shyness, “Uh, maybe I’m being a bit too…”

Her unfinished sentence was swallowed by his passionately invasive kiss. Thaddeus held her soft body gently in his arms, his large hand seemingly accidentally stroking up her bottom spine he found irresistibly alluring, his fiery kiss lingering on her soft, vulnerable lips.

As she trembled in his arms, he released her with a playful timing, his thumb rubbing her flushed lower lip as he chuckled in a husky voice, “You were wondering if you’re being too wicked, hmm?”

Evadne, lost in the depth of his tender, stormy gaze, her eyes shimmering, breathlessly whispered, “Maybe I should be even naughtier.”

Thaddeus‘ hand returned to her waist, kneading gently, “Your wicked side drives me wild.”

Cheeks flushed with warmth, Evadne bashfully punched his chest lightly. But he was already breathing heavily, his eyes tinged with red, unmistakably stirred with desire.

The rogue, he wanted her again.

“Mrs. Abernathy! You should have seen Mr. Abernathy today; he was quite the hero!”

Gordon’s booming voice shattered the intimate atmosphere, “Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy took Mr. Frederic Abernathy along today, and in front of him and the entire staff of Windermere Estate, he dealt with Glynnis.

Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy hit Glynnis; fuming, he didn’t spare her any dignity. Mr. Frederic Abernathy tried to protect Glynnis for the sake of Abernathy pride, but Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy wouldn’t indulge her a bit. He not only banished her from Elmsworth but also gave her two sound slaps. Little did we expect this extra twist!”

Evadne blinked her watery eyes, shooting Thaddeus a suspicious glance.

“Glynnis‘ sins are too numerous to document, but she should never have been so foolish as to cling to Frederic in my presence.” Thaddeus‘ sharp gaze flickered with cool indifference, yet his fingers relentlessly tracing the lines of her waist, “Her deafness isn’t my fault. If blame must be assigned, it falls on Frederic who refused my demand to have her kneel and apologize to my sister. Otherwise, I would have spared her those slaps.”

“My Thaddeus, since when did you become such a smooth talker?”

Evadne playfully exposed his true intentions, loosening his perfect Windsor knot with her fingers, “You’re not some mindless brute. You intended to hit her hard; you wanted to ruin her.”

Thaddeus didn’t bother to hide it, pecking her lips lightly, “So, I’m wicked too. We’re a match made in heaven.”

“That remains to be seen.” A shadow crossed Evadne’s eyes, “Gordon, how long will Glynnis be in the hospital?”

*Just a couple of days, I guess.”
