His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 733

    <b>Chapter </b><b>733 </b>


    Mr. and Mrs. Abernathy retired <b>to </b>their quarters, where Thaddeus divulged everything he knew about Edith and Glynnis <b>to </b>Evadne.


    He could have easily kept <b>it </b>all to himself and dealt with the matter in private.


    But that was no longer an option for him–under the thumb of his wife, he knew that omission equaled <b>treason </b><b>in </b>her eyes. To incur her wrath was a fate he dared not tempt.


    A woman like Evadne was not easily cated, and the thought of enduring weeks without her touch was a


    torment too bitter to bear.


    Evadne listened in silence, with her striking eyes narrowing and a dangerous glint flickering within that sent shivers down one’s spine.


    <b>“</b><b>So </b>it seemed that’s why Mari endured such torment; her own sister Glynnis yed a pivotal role in her suffering,” she mused coldly.


    In the next moment, with her anger manifesting, she clenched a teacup and, with a sharp snap, hurled it to the ground and shattered it to pieces!


    Winced <b>at </b>the sound, Thaddeus quickly took her hand to inspect for any cuts and gently soothed her within hisrger palm. “Evadne, anger is a poison. It’s not worth hurting yourself over such trash,” he soothed.


    <b>“</b>It’s like we’ve got a six–fingered mutation on our hands with Glynnis,” he muttered under his breath, with his tone turning dark.


    Her usually sweet voice turned raspy with fury, “How can two siblings be so different? When Elspeth went to great lengths with her schemes during her pregnancy, surely Mr. Frederic demanded a paternity test? Is she truly an Abernathy?*


    Thaddeus‘ gaze darkened as he replied softly, “A paternity test was done back then. It confirmed Glynnis is <b>indeed </b>Frederic’s child<b>.</b>”


    <b>“</b>Have <b>you </b>never seen <b>a </b>TV show? Anyone can fake the tests by buying off the doctors. If Elspeth could hide a murder for twenty years, what’s <b>a </b>paternity test to her?<b>” </b>


    Evadne’s <b>mind </b>was racing<b>; </b><b>it </b>was spinning tales darker and deeper with each passing moment.


    <b>Thaddeus</b>‘ expression grew solemn, <b>but </b>his strong fingers silently sl*pped under the cor of her blouse, caressing the soft skin at <b>the </b><b>nape </b><b>of </b>her n*eck<b>, </b>which was a silent sce for his troubled thoughts.


    He wasn’t impatient, nor <b>did </b><b>he </b>consider her <b>fears </b><b>as </b>unfounded.


    Indeed, shadows of doubt lingered <b>in </b>his own <b>mind</b><b>, </b><b>but </b>with so much at stake, the question of Glynnis‘ lineage had faded into the background.


    “Now<b><i>, </i></b>we must address her collusion <b>with </b>the Fairhaven <b>group </b>in framing Mari,<b>” </b>he said, wrapping his arm around <b>her </b>slender waist <b>and </b>tracing the curve of her <b>b*dy </b><b>with </b>his hand. “<b>My dear</b><b>, </b><b>do </b>you have any suggestions?”


    “Taking down Glynnis will be easy, especially now that she’s lost Elspeth’s <b>protection</b>. The more she celebrates, the faster she’ll fall, Evadne dered, leaning <b>into </b>his embrace, with her l*ps curving into a cold, decisive


    smile


    “But, we need a n that’ll hurt her without backfiring on us.”


    “Evadne, you just do what you must, don’t worry about the Abernathy group<b>. </b>I’ve got our backs,<b>” </b>Thaddeus said, his eyes burning with resolve


    Evadne shook her head, “If Glynnis‘ secretse to light, the Abernathy group could face the same fate as <b>the </b>Chambers <b>Group</b>. <b>And </b>it’s <b>not </b>just about you<b>–</b><b>it’s </b>about Grandfather’s <b>legacy</b><b>. </b>Despite everything, she is his <b>granddaughter</b>, and even if his heart has turned cold towards her, we must consider <b>how </b><b>he’d </b>feel

    <b>Chapter </b><b>733 </b>


    The Abernathys, like any <b>old </b>family<b>, </b>valued blood ties, <b>and </b>with Grandfather Hamilton’s <b>age </b><b>and </b>recent stress over <b>Mari’s </b>ordeal<b>, </b>they <b>couldn’t </b>afford another blow.


    <b>“</b><b>The </b>best oue would be for her to confess on her own. But we’ll need the right bait,” she mused<b>, </b>with a <b>cold </bughter echoing in her eyes, full of dark promises. “Right now, she believes she’s won a great victory and <b>is </b><b>probably </b>on cloud <b>nine</b>. Let’s add a little more excitement to her life.”


    <b>Knowing </b><b>your </b>enemy made all the difference; just as Evadne had predicted Avery’s hasty actions against Byron <b>she </b><b>now </b>anticipated Glynnis‘ arrogantcency.


    While <b>the </b>Abernathy household was fraught with worry over Mari, Glynnis continued her hedonistic ways, flitting from one party to the next, drowning in alcohol, and using her sister’s suffering as fodder for gossip among her fair–weather friends.


    <b>Taking </b>pleasure in the pain of a family member was her way of venting long–suppressed rage.


    Since Elspeth’s death, Glynnis had been cautious, but her recent alliance with Edith had emboldened her. <b>Without </b>Elspeth, she’d found she could still wield power among her circle and manipte them as she pleased.


    That night, in a debauched VIP room, Glynnis danced provocatively with a striking male model. The surrounding crowd egged them on, and under the influence of alcohol, she lost all inhibitions and engaged in lewd <b>acts </b>with a stranger.


    In <b>the </b>chaos<b>, </b>the male model pulled her into the bathroom.


    <b>Their </b>k*ssing was frenzied, his hands tearing at her clothes. At first, she resisted, self–consciously covering her exposed lingerie, but then her pupils dted in shock!


    <b>The </b>man’s nimble tongue sl*pped a pill into her mouth, and before she could react<b>, </b>she swallowed it.


    <b>“</b><b>What </b>did you give me?!<b>” </b>Glynnis gasped, pushing him away and panting heavily.


    “Something to make you very happy, veryfortable,” he slurred, and with a murky smile on his face, he licked her <b>earlobe</b>. “<b>Anyway</b><b>, </b><b>it’s </b>not like it’s your first time trying this, right?<b>” </b>


    <b>Glynnis </b>soon sumbed to <b>the </b>tidal waves of pleasure<b>; </b><b>her </b><b>mind </b>was in shambles, but her b*dy felt euphoric.


    Time passed<b>, </b><b>and </b>the room emptied. <b>The </b>man zipped up his pants and left <b>the </b>bathroom.


    There <by </b><b>Glynnis</b><b>, </b>the heiress, <b>slumped </b><b>over </b><b>a </b>filthy toilet<b>, </b>drooling, with a smile contorting her face–more a fool <b>than </b><b>any </b>fool could <b>be</b><b>. </b>


    Disgusted <b>by </b><b>the </b>scene, <b>the </b><b>man </b>stepped <b>back </b><b>into </b><b>the </b>room<b>, </b>where another figure sat calmly on the sofa<b>, </b>who was dressed impably <b>and </b><b>exuding </b>a cool elegance.


    <b>“</b>Mr. Jason, the task you set for me was <b><i>done</i></b><b>,</b><b>” </b><b>said </b>the male <b>model </b>with <b>a </b><b>respectful </b>hustle <b>in </b><b>his </b><b>step </b>as he approached.


    “You’ve been through a lot <b>by dealing </b><b>with </b>such a messy <b>job</b><b>, </b>Jason said<b>, </b>looking <b>up </b><b>with </b>a slight curve <b>of </b><b>his </b>l*ps


    “It was nothing<b>, </b><b>hardly </b>a chore.”


    <b>“</b>I’ve received the photos and <b>the </b>video.”


    Jason slid a bank card across the table toward him. “There’s the agreed <b>one </b>million <b>in </b>there. <b>Plus</b>, I’ve added an extra half a mil for your troubles. I hope it helps <b>you </b>get back on your feet.”


    <b>The </b>man paused for a while before he picked <b>up </b><b>the </b>card with a self–deprecating chuckle. “If I ever beat this sickness, it’ll be a <b>medical </b>miracle. Don’t worry<b>, </b>I’ll be on the first flight out <b>of </b>Elmsworth tomorrow morning and <b>you </b><b>won’t </b>see me <b>again</b><b>. </b>
