His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

That day, after the siblings reached an agreement, Aaron went home to share the news with Emeric and Suri.

Emeric assumed Suri had let her longing for her son cloud her judgment, and honestly, he didn't expect much. But Suri, on the other hand, let herself get swept up by hope, only to have it all come crashing down on her. The emotional blow was crushing.

At first, she doubted her own senses, but reality eventually forced her to accept the truth. She spent the next three or four days collapsed on her bed, drained and despondent.

It wasn't until Evadne came home that Suri managed to pull herself together. Forcing herself to sit up, she pressed Evadne once more:

"Evadne... Are you absolutely sure it's not Hubery? Are you really sure?"

Tears welled in her eyes.

Normally graceful and ageless, Suri looked like she had aged years in just a few days. The elegant composure she was known for had faded, replaced by a haggard sadness.

"Suri, I understand how you feel. I want to believe Hubery is still alive, just as much as you do," Evadne replied, her voice trembling with the effort to hold herself together. She squeezed Suri's cold, delicate hand. “But the truth is, that man isn't Hubery. He just... looks a lot like him."

Suri closed her eyes in despair and shook her head, pain etched into every line of her face.

"Evadne, maybe you'll think I'm being ridiculous, but... ever since Hubery's plane went down, I keep dreaming about him. I can't shake this feeling that he's still alive, somewhere out there in the world, quietly living his life. It's as if he just can't find his way home..."

"Suri..." Evadne almost broke down herself, barely managing to compose her voice.
