His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 746

Chapter 746

Glynnis‘ caustic remarks stripped Marilla’s face of all color, her slender frame trembling even more violently. She clenched her eyes shut, mangling the small teddy bear in her grip.

It was the only way she could force herself not to recall those horrifying memories.

“So you can’t snag a spot as Mrs. Fairhaven, but hey, looks like you might land a cozy spot with Mr. Bartley’s son. Congrats in advance.” Glynnis flipped her hair arrogantly – a clear mimic of Elspeth’s flirtatious antics, “But sadly, I don’t have any wedding gift for you.”

Thaddeus‘ brows were knitted in anger, his eyes searing with crimson fury, “Say that one more time, and I’ll make sure your right ear hears nothing ever again.”

“Can’t handle the truth? She’s heading straight into the Bartley family’s arms, and your scowling won’t change a thing!”

Like a tiger Thaddeus advanced towards her with menacing steps.

Glynnis threw her hands up in dramatic despair, “Help! Dad! Save me! Thaddeus is out for blood!”

“Enough! What is all this racket?!” Frederic stood on the staircase, glaring down at the feuding pair, his voice thunderous.

“Dad! Thaddeus is going to hit me. He only knows how to hit women!”

Glynnis sobbed exaggeratedly, “He might as well just kill me!”

“That’s enough!” Frederic pinched the bridge of his nose, his patience worn thin by the shrill noise, “Dennis, take her to the airport, now!”

“Yes, Mr. Frederic Abernathy.”

Dennis glanced coldly at Glynnis, “After you.”

Gritting her teeth, Glynnis hauled her hefty suitcase towards the door. Frederic, not entirely heartless, commanded sternly, “Help her with that, will you?”
