His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 1090

Evadne spent only two brief days recovering in the hospital before returning to KS Group to take the reins once more.

Her father, Emeric, had retreated from the public eye due to health issues. Now, aside from quietly offering guidance on major decisions, he left almost everything else to his daughter, rarely interfering.

Two weeks passed. The temperature kept dropping, snow falling in wave after

wave.

But during all this time, Evadne heard nothing from Thaddeus.

She'd thought that kiss might be a new beginning. Now, looking back, it felt more like a farewell.

That afternoon, after wrapping up a high-level strategic meeting, Evadne returned to her office and sat down to review the proposal documents for the Elmsworth A5 real estate project.

The A5 project was the most highly anticipated government-backed development of the next five years-its potential value was incalculable. Handled well, it could catapult a business leader straight into the political spotlight, granting influence and power beyond imagination.

Since the project was based in Elmsworth, the Abernathy Group was certain to be involved. Although KS Group was headquartered in Skyrim, it was also among the nation's top conglomerates and was determined to win the bid for A5.

Usually, Evadne could slip easily into her work. Lately, though, her thoughts kept drifting; she just couldn't focus.

At last, unable to suppress her anxiety any longer, she reached for her phone and dialed Chasel.

The line rang for a long time before someone finally picked up. A hoarse, exhausted voice came through:
