His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 1016

Sir was a heartless madman. His charm and sophistication were merely a facade.

Deception, though despicable, was a way to protect her. With Evadne's fiery spirit, she could easily cause a disaster of epic proportions, consequences she couldn't possibly bear.

"There's one thing I'm sure of," Avery said, taking a deep breath, a bitter smile curling his lips. "The medication Thaddeus took, it's not lethal, nor will it harm his body."

"Otherwise, he wouldn't have suggested that you take it too."

"Me?!" Evadne's eyes widened, her face paling.

"Sir wouldn't harm you, so the drug he intended for you isn't deadly. But he mentioned the process would be excruciating."

Avery's gaze fell, his handcuffed hands trembling slightly, as if holding back a torrent of emotions.

No further explanation was needed.

Evadne understood it all.

"Your Sir suggested giving the drug to me. He didn't specify what it was, but he must have told you what it would do, right?"

"He said it would make you... forever mine," Avery's voice broke, hoarse and fragmented.

"Ha... I see."

Evadne realized there was nothing more to glean from this encounter, nor did she wish to face him any longer. She stood coldly, "I'm leaving, Avery. I can't bring myself to tell you to take care, because you know I despise you. Yet, while you're
