His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 790

Thad felt Evadne’s hand turning cold and her breath growing heavy.

He knew she was haunted by the shadows of the past, and her heart was aching with old wounds.

With a reassuring warmth, Thad cupped the back of her head; his trembling lips brushed her forehead as he whispered comfort in her ear:

“Don’t dwell on the sorrows of yesteryear. Look at me, I’m right as rain, thanks to your magic touch. You’ve stitched up this thick skull of mine and made me sharp as a tack again.”

Evadne tried to steady her breath, and shook her head.

She understood all too well that the old injury still lingered within his skull, and he has never truly been

healed.

It was only after they had mended their bond that their love as deep as the ocean helped soothe his spirit and mind. The neural pathways in his brain no longer clogged, and his whole being became relaxed; in addition to the right medication, his episodes had finally subsided.

But Evadne was no fool.

She knew that under the weight of stress, he would hold his composure during the day, but after tucking her into bed at night, he’d stealthily rise to find pain relief.

He thought he was keeping it a secret.

But as his confidante, she was intimate with every sigh and breath of his. How could she not know his every

pain.

Frederic’s eyes flashed, and his face was twisted with hate and shock.

“Mr. Frederic! I was cornered back then. Elspeth was your woman, and the man she brought with her had a knife, and he threatened me with a hideous glare to do her bidding. I had no choice but to comply. Ah!”

Frederic’s fury flared as he kicked the man to the ground, “Mention Elspeth’s name again, and I’ll cut out your tongue and feed you to the dogs piece by piece! You think I’d forget that after twenty years? You played with the bloodline of the Abernathys, dragging our name through the mud. Elspeth may have turned to ashes, but you’ll pay her debt!”

That scoundrel had never severed ties with Elspeth. Worse yet, he had willingly become her accomplice, and her instrument of murder!

Elspeth not only caused the death of his beloved Cynthia and took her place as his wife, but also made the offspring of their affair live lavishly off the Abernathys, enjoying a life of privilege for years!

Had it not been for their own undoing, Elspeth and her daughter might have deceived him for a lifetime, and have perhaps even swindled the Abernathy fortune and shares!

“This accursed pair; how conniving and vile are them!”

Hamilton was nearly breathless with rage, and his eyes were brimming with pain for his grandson, “That witch Elspeth wasn’t satisfied with robbing Thad of his mother; her accomplice even aimed for my grandson’s life! Had it not been for llana’s skillful surgery on Thad, Frederic, have you realized that your own flesh and blood would have perished by their hands?!”

Frederic’s face paled as if struck by lightning.
