His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 1096

On the way back from the hospital, Evadne found herself replaying Thaddeus's words in her mind-the promises they'd made, the pact sealed with a handshake. A storm of emotions swirled inside her, impossible to name or untangle.

She gazed out at the snow swirling past the car window, tears glimmering at the corners of her eyes. In a voice barely more than a whisper, she murmured to herself, “Evadne, he came to find you of his own accord. He agreed to your request—that's more than enough, isn't it? You don't have the right to act spoiled in front of him anymore... it's time to be content with what you have."

Jason watched her through the rearview mirror as he drove, noticing how lost and hollow she looked. His heart ached with sympathy.

Just being apart from him was enough to turn her world upside down.

If Thaddeus truly left this world for good... Evadne's life would shatter beyond repair.
