Chapter 100
“Ouch!” Evadne crashed hard against the pillar, a painful grunt escaping her lips. “Thaddeus! What the
hell are you doing?”
Thaddeus was fuming, his orip on her wrist tight as if afraid she would run.
Their breaths intermingled, their gazed fiercely entangled.
“You’ve lied to me repeatedly, Hana, do you think anyone wouldn’t get pis sed?” Thaddeus stared at
her, his voice so h oa rse it was barely audible.
“What did I lie to you about?” Evadne strugated, her eyes suddenly brimming with tears. “You know
nothing about me because you never cared. For the past three years. I would’ve told you anything you
asked, but did you ever care?!”
Thaddeus frowned, his heart pounding relentlessly in his chest.
“Do you know what I like to eat? Do you know my hobbies, my favourite songs, my favorite places? I’m
your wife. I know everything about you, but you know nothing about me. Now, don’t you think you’re a
joke? Isn’t all this your own doing?!”
Evadine’s eyes were like daggers, piercing into Thaddeus’s, ripping apart his cold facade.
“Thaddeus, I’ve been like a dusty book on your shelf for the past three years. Every day, I hoped you’d
pick me up. Even if it were just a glance, I would’ve told you everything. But I waited three years, and
all I got was your abandonment.”
Thaddeus’s eyelashes trembled, his handsome face drained of colour, his heart aching as if being
clenched.
Yes, he had abandoned her.
He still remembered how helpless and heartbroken she was when he forced her to sign the divorce
agreement.
She was so reluctant at first. Why can she laugh now?!
“Luckily, your indifference drove me from disappointment to despair. I have no more expectations and
no more desire to share anything with you. Now, I have absolutely no interest in you.”
Evadne’s eyes were bloodshot, but her smile was still captivating.
Thaddeus felt as if he had been hit in his most vulnerable spot, the pain spreading rapidly throughout
his body.

“Lying to myself? Sorry, I don’t have that kind of time!”
“Do you really like Cas sius?” Thaddeus blurted out.
“Absolutely!” Evadne said without hesitation.
“No, you don’t like Cas sius, and you’re just with him to get back at me, to make me mad about our
divorce!”
Thaddeus took a deep breath, leaning closer to her beautiful face, their noses brushing unintentionally.
Evadne quickly averted her eyes, trying to escape his heated breath.
“You’re delusional! Go see a doctor and stop bothering me!”
But Thaddeus grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him.
“Ilana, do you hate me that much? You’d rather be with someone you don’t love just to hurt me?”
“Hurt you? I’m pretty da mn pleased.” Evadne smirked, her lips curving enticingly. “I’m happy every day
being with Cas sius. With you, it felt like a prison sentence. Do you think you’re worth my revenge? To
get back at you, I feel like I’m lowering my standards and wasting my time!”
“You’re shameless, so vain! Why didn’t I see your true colours sooner?” Thaddeus gritted his teeth, his
heart aching. “Marrying you was the biggest mistake of my life!”
In an instant, Evadne’s pupils contracted, and her body went rigid.
She was his biggest mistake.
She had loved him with all her heart for thirteen years and got nothing in return. Instead, she became a
stain on his life.
Evadne, why were you so unlucky? Why were you so pitiful?
Watching her eyes moisten with tears, Thaddeus went pale and quickly let go of her hand.
He realized he had spoken too harshly, too ruthlessly.
He didn’t mean to say those things, but he couldn’t help letting them slip.
If he really meant it, then so be it.
But he was clearly saying one thing and meaning another.
“Mr. Frederic? Ms. Ilana?!”
At this moment, Mr. Murray hurried over and bumped into them.
Evadne quickly moved away from Thaddeus and forced a smile, “Mr. Murray, weren’t you with Mr.
Hamiltion in the front hall? What brings you here?”
Mr. Murray sensed the strange atmosphere but didn’t comment. He just anxiously said. “There’s a
problem at the birthday party. I need to handle it urgently.”
“What happened?” Evadne asked.
“Mr. Frederic knew that Mr. Hamiltion enjoys music, so he paid a pretty penny to get a famous singer to
perform at Mr. Hamiltion’s birthday. But the singer suddenly fell ill, and his apprentice just told me that
he’s vomiting, has diarrhea and a fever, he can’t perform!”
Mr. Murray was in a frenzy. “What are we going to do now? The stage was set for the singer’s
performance. If he can’t perform, won’t it disappoint Mr. Hamiltion and make us a laughingstock?”
“That won’t happen.” Evadne frowned, but then she smiled confidently, “Don’t worry, as long as I’m
here, nobody will laugh at us.”
Thaddeus was taken aback and deeply touched.

Chapter 100
Even though they were no longer husband and wife, when the Abernathy family faced a problem, she
still stepped up just like before, ready to solve it.
All for Mr. Hamiltion to have a birthday without regrets.
Hearing her words, Mr. Murray’s face lit up. “You have a solution?”
“Mr. Murray, where can I find the backstage? Can you show me the way?”
After finishing her words, Evadne left Thaddeus and quickly went with Mr. Murray.
Watching her gentle figure leaving. Thaddeus felt a sense of loss.
His hand involuntarily clenched into a fist.
Thinking of her rosy eyes, he found it hard to breathe.
The backyard.
Blooming flowers surrounded the stage, and the people below it was full of joy.
Hamiltion enjoyed the hustle and bustle, so he not only invited Glynnis but also invited Cas sius and
Jareth to sit beside his table. The table was quickly filled with people.
Only Acacia was arranged to sit in the guest seats.
This was another way to tell her and everyone else that she was not a part of the Abernathy family.
Acacia was furious, she sat there grinding her teeth, but no one paid any attention to her.
At this moment, her phone vibrated. Elspeth had sent a message.
[Opportunities need to be seized. If you just sit and wait for death, you’ll always be a laughing stock!]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLaughing stock? No way, she didn’t want to be one!
Acacia gripped her phone tightly, her eyes filled with determination.
The insults she suffered tonight, she would make Ilana pay a thousand times!
“Where’s Thaddeus? Where’s Ilana?” Hamiltion looked around, but he didn’t see them.
Thaddeus walked over and sat down next to Jareth with a gloomy face.
Jareth shivered; he felt this man was too cold.
“Thaddeus, where’s Ilana?” Hamiltion asked with a frown, “She’s gone missing. Aren’t you going to look
for her? You really don’t care!”
Thaddeus remained silent, his mind in turmoil.
“I think Ilana might be lost since it’s her first time here. I’ll go find her,” said Cas sius.
Just as Cas sius was about to stand up, Thaddeus said coldly. “There’s no need. It’s your first time
here, too, so you might not be able to find her. Besides, I know where she went. You don’t need to
worry.”
Jareth was stunned, and his wine almost slipped from his hand. He thought to himself, things were
moving fast!
Thaddeus and Cas sius, two equally outstanding men, were clearly not arguing openly, but they were
already competing behind the scenes!
Cas sius squinted his eyes, a flash of coldness in his gaze.
Just then, the performance began, and the curtain on the stage was drawn.
The laughter below gradually faded, and all eyes were focused on the stage.
At this moment, a woman in a sky-blue long dress adorned with pearls stood in the middle, her figure
graceful and enchanting.
Thaddeus looked at the figure on the stage, finding it very familiar.
Mr. Murray quietly returned to Hamiltion’s side.
“The performance has started. Why can’t I see llana?” Though Hamiltion loved music, he didn’t feel
interested without Ilana present.
“Ms. Ilana is here.” Mr. Murray pointed to the stage with a smile, “Look, isn’t that her?”
Everyone was stunned.
Thaddeus suddenly stood up, surprising everyone!
His chest was heaving, and he could only stare at the beauty on stage, his heart pounding as if he had
been shocked by electricity!
