His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 173

Recently, the Abernathy Hotel and K Orld Hotel had been playing nice on the surface, but they were

actually fighting like cats and dogs behind the scenes. Ada Ang, a big-shot international celeb, always

turned head wherever she went. She wouldn’t even glance at her wedding unless a few top brands

were backing it. It was no secret that Ada Ang was a hardcore jewellery nut. She was thrown small

private jewellery exhibitions, showcasing her own pricey collection.

For her upcoming wedding, she was made a pretty tall order to the Abernathy group and K Orld Hotel.

The jewellery she’d be wearing had to be top-of-the-line, handcrafted by the best designers, and there

could only be one piece!

“Ada says she only accepts one-of-a-kind jewels worthy of her star status.”

Gordon relayed his agent’s words to Thaddeus and all the top dogs in the room, “Ada says she won’t

have any demands for the jewellery style and designer and won’t eat any limits. She’s leaving it up to

the Abernathy group and the K Orld Hotel.

Whichever side can provide jewellery sponsorship that satisfied her, she’ll let them host her wedding.

No ifs, ands, or buts.”

Thaddeus listened, eyebrows furrowed, drumming his pen on the table, lost in thought.

The top bra** all began to chatter.

“Was she looking for sponsors or a piggy bank?”

“What international star? She’s just an actress who thinks she’s all that.”

“Ada is really overstepping, and she should be setting exam questions, not being a star!”

Thaddeus suddenly looked up, commanding the room, “This was a meeting room, not a chatroom.

Speak up if you have suggestions. Otherwise, zip that.”

Seeing Thaddeus’ temper flare up, everyone shut their yaps and started seriously suggesting ideas.

The head of Product Design offered a string of renowned domestic and international jewellery

designers. She prepared detailed information, introducing each designer’s background and

representative works to Thaddeus.

After listening. Thaddeus asked expressionlessly, “Why wasn’t Alea on the list?”

Hearing the name Alea, everyone immediately clammed up.

“What’s with these faces?” Thaddeus looked at them, puzzled by their sudden silence.

“Er, Mr. Thaddeus, I got to be straight with you. We absolutely can’t invite Alea.” The Head of Design

treaded carefully.

“Why, did she die?”

Everyone was speechless.

Thaddeus asked seriously, not meaning any harm.

Despite being the CEO of the Abernathy group and skilled at business management, he indeed didn’t

know much about the world of jewellery and fashion.

“Mr. Thaddeus, it was because Alea was considered a master in the jewellery design industry. The

designers I just introduced to you, almost every one of them holds Alea in high regard. Some even

openly admit that they looked at Alea’s works for inspiration when they were out of idea.

Alea was like a superstar in the design world, a go d of design. Those who can buy her designed

jewellery felt like they’ve got a priceless treasure. How could they possibly have the chance to invite

her to design special jewellery for a star like Ada Ang? It was simply like a pipe dream.”

The Head of Design, herself an admirer of Alea, even felt that inviting Alea to design jewellery for a star

like Ada Ang seemed to be a bit beneath Alea’s status.

“No matter how excellent a person is, as long as they’re still on this planet, they need to eat to survive,

and they’re not invincible.”

Thaddeus was extremely determined at this moment, and he didn’t believe this was the best way, so he

said without hesitation, “The jewellery designer for Ada Ang’s wedding will be Alea.”

འཆ ཎ ཎ ཥག  Fད Everyone was stunned.

The Head was sweating bullets, “Not that, Mr. Thaddeus. Actually, the ones I introduced to you are also

very excellent designers, and their works have won international awards, and they can definitely meet

our need.

Thaddeus shook his head, “I didn’t deny your choices because they were bad. On the contrary, you did

well. You just overlooked one issue, that is our competition.”

Everyone exchanged looks.

“Our competition this time is K Orld Hotel, the darling of the Ashbourne family, Evadne.”

Every time he brought up this name in the past, Thaddeus would feel a headache, but this time, his

eyes lit up, and there was a hint of admiration and respect for her, “I understand Ms. Evadne well.

She’s like me, doing everything to the best, striving for perfection in everything. We know Ada Ang’s

request and Evadne couldn’t possibly not know. Do you think with the strength of the K Corporation and

Ms. Evadne’s decisiveness, she would present an imperfect plan to deal with things?”

Thaddeus deepened his gaze, “No, she either doesn’t do it, or she does it to the best, leaving the

opponent with no room to fight back. So, we must find Alea before

her.”

Everyone was still somewhat skeptical.

After all, someone that even the Abernathy group might not be able to find, did Ms. Evadne have such

great ability?

“Within a day, get me information about Alea, not her works, but her personal information.”

Having given the order, Thaddeus was about to end the meeting.

The Head finally plucked up the courage to speak, “Mr. Thaddeus, about Alea’s works, I can give you a

ton of information, but about her personal information, I could only tell you one sentence.”

Thaddeus frowned and turned around, “What?”

“She was a woman.”

The next day.

Evadne and her team had finished their meeting and returned to the General Manager’s office.

“Jason, I’m kind of starving. I want to order some takeout, fried chicken, and beer. Get it for me, quick.”

Evadne commanded while multitasking her game at her

computer.

“Lady, you’re really living the dream, aren’t you?” Jason gave a wry smile, “At this moment, you’re in

the mood for fried chicken, while I’m about to lose my mind. Ada Ang’s team wants a top-notch jewelry

designer, and the Abernathy group must be making their moves. Didn’t you feel the urgency at all? And

you even vetoed the team member’s designer options, insisting on Alea. I believe everyone knew who

Alea was. You inviting her was like summoning Go d! Our time was running out. Do we even stand a

chance of getting Alea?”

“If we can’t get Alea, neither can the Abernathy group. So there’s no need to rush.” Evadne replied

nonchalantly, even humming a tune.

Just then, a video call came in on the computer screen.

Jason was about to excuse himself, but Evadne stopped him with a mischievous glint in her eye.

“It was a call from a friend, and you can stick around.”

She accepted the video call.

The next second, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty appeared on the screen.

“Long time no see, Liva.”

“Just now, Thaddeus, the president of the Abernathy group, contacted me, hoping Alea could attend

and design jewelry for them,” Liva informed Evadne.

“Oh? Thaddeus personally contacted you. That’s quite humble for him.” Evadne sighed.

“No matter who contacts me, the result was the same. I can’t possibly agree to them.”

“What if I were to invite Alea? As her chief a**istant, could you do me a favor, Miss Liva?” Evadne

propped her cheek on her hand, her bright eyes twi nkling.

Jason stood beside her, feeling a bit lost.

He thought to himself, no wonder she seemed so confident during the meeting. She had such a good

relationship with Alea’s a**istant!

However, the next second, what Liva said left Jason flabbergasted!

She leaned close to the screen, looked at Evadne deeply, and laughed, “It’s rare to get in touch with

you, don’t joke with me, my Miss Alea.

Miss Alea?

Evadne was she the top international jewelry designer, the goddess of the jewelry world, Alea?!
