His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

"Look, either you let Thaddeus go, or you get up and make him fall for you all over

again," Cassius said, his voice sharp with frustration. His dark eyes burned with a

restless energy. "But wasting your life like this, hiding away in here-what's the

point?"

"You're so noisy..."

Evadne buried her face deeper into the pillow. Her dark hair spilled across the

crisp white sheets, making her look even smaller and more fragile. "Just leave, will

you? I want to sleep!"

Cassius, the oldest brother-more like a father than a sibling-felt anger, pity, and

helplessness all at once.

He knew: no one could untangle her heart but Thaddeus himself.

"Ms. Evadne, if you're hungry, you can have anything you want from the hotel

kitchen," Jason fretted, lingering nearby. "Why instant noodles? Let me cook you

something real. It's not good for you, eating that stuff."

Evadne's reply was muffled but clear, "Noodles are tasty. I like them."

Aaron, who knew Evadne's stubborn streak all too well, realized gentle words

wouldn't work. He'd have to switch up his game.

He walked over to the bed, leaned down, and whispered in her ear, voice low and

devilish, "I found out who's been meeting with Avery lately."

In an instant, Evadne shot upright, eyes wide with sudden energy. "Who?!"

Aaron wrinkled his nose dramatically. "Whoa, girl, you need a shower. If

housekeeping finds you like this tomorrow, they'll call the cops and think it's a

crime scene."

Jason snorted, half-laughing at Aaron's exaggeration.
