Chapter 180
Evadne gritted her teeth and said.
The Ashbourne family kids all wrapped in cotton wool by Emeric and his three wives since day one,
and were given a broader, freer space to chase their dreams and realize their ideals.
Evadne once was desperate for love. For Thaddeus, she left her familiar home, put herself in danger,
and even let Thaddeus tra mple on her noble pride time and time again, all for a laughably absurd true
love..
Now, she woke up with a start. She returned to the Ashbourne Group and wanted to shoulder the
responsibility of inheriting the family business. It was not just to make up for past mistakes but also to
let her siblings chase their own lives without any worries.
She didn’t want the peaceful life of her family to be disturbed.
But Thaddeus was now shamelessly pushing her boundaries!
Evadne couldn’t stand it.
Low?”
Evadne’s words stabbed Thaddeus’s heart. A deeper red was added to his eyes.
Suddenly he stretched out his arms, trapping Evadne under his chest, his hot breath sprayed on her
nose, “Evadne, you think I’m low, then come at me. Getting Gordon locked up, is this your way of
getting back at me?”
Getting back at him?
Evadne was also furious, she thought this man was beyond reason!
It was him who asked Gordon to spy on her, got caught by Aaron red-handed with clear evidence. He
didn’t apologize to her, even blamed her.
It was incomprehensible!
“If it wasn’t for you, why would your brother Aaron arrest Gordon out of the blue?”
Thaddeus narrowed his eyes, full of anger and resentment. With complex emotions stuck in his chest,
he felt it hard to relieve, “Evadne, you hate me for winning once? You team up with your brothers to
deal with me, deal with the Abernathy group!”
“Oh, are you jealous? My brothers spoil me and want to stand up for me. What can I do?” Evadne h
ooked her red lips, a smile that could kill him.
“Evadne!” Thaddeus’s eyebrows jumped violently.

get back at me, let your sweetheart sisters scratch
me.”
She would never say such things normally.
But tonight she drank a bit, and was provoked by Thaddeus, she just let it all out.
“Sweetheart sisters? What is that?” Thaddeus was confused, still didn’t understand the situation.
“Are you playing dumb? I don’t want to deal with you, you old disgusting man.”
Evadne mocked disgustingly, her hands pushed against the man’s robust chest.
Thaddeus’s long lashes flickered, a subtle ripple in his eyes.
He remembered the time when Evadne vomited all over him outside the karaoke bar, and then framed
him as a pe rvert almost got him into the police station, making him a mess.
As soon as he got home, he took off those dirty clothes, standing in front of the mirror with his upper
body naked. He was shocked to find red scratches all over his chest, like being scratched by a kitten.
It was hot and painful to touch, with some residual warmth.
Now she was touching him again, the vivid touch made his heart tremble uncontrollably in his chest, his
heart had long been melted by her.
The man’s eyes hid indescribable emotions, fermenting and growing wildly.
“I’ve said what I needed to say. Don’t have people follow me from now on, or you won’t just be sent to
the police station!”
Evadne tried to push him away but couldn’t move. She was very angry and her beautiful eyes were
covered with a thin layer of mist, “Get away, don’t force me to do it!”
“Evadne, you can’t leave.” Thaddeus’s voice was low, his chest undulating under her small hand.
This is a police station! If you continue to act like this, I’ll call Aaron to arrest you!” Evadne’s eyes were
wide open, her cheeks flushed with anger.
“Even so, you can’t leave. The man’s stubbornness came up again.
“Why?”
“What sister?” Thaddeus frowned, asked urgently, “I only have two sisters, Glynnis and Marilla. Do I
have other sisters?”
Evadne was so angry. She really wanted to slap this jerk into the snow!
Just then, Thaddeus’s pupils contracted suddenly. He turned abruptly and blocked the attack from
behind with his left arm!
Several years of military life and the high-intensity training made him extremely alert, keen as a
cheetah.
Evadne’s eyes widened. Before she could react to what happened, Thaddeus and Aaron were already
fighting, fists and feet clashing!
The surroundings were filled with the sound of cold air, making her frightened!
Thaddeus moved like lightning, his moves fierce. In this showdown between the military school.
disadvantage!
After all, in the entire Ashbourne family, only Elvis and Cas sius could match Thaddeus.
Watching Thaddeus’s punch about to hit Aaron’s face, Evadne cried out in horror “Don’t hit Aaron!”
Thaddeus’s heart jumped, his fist full of veins suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Just as Thaddeus was distracted, Aaron seized the opportunity and threw a punch at his mouth!
“Uh!”
dog and the impulsive cop, Aaron was clearly at a
Thaddeus’s lips and teeth hurt, his mouth was full of the taste of blood, but he only took a small step
back.
Evadne’s hands were tightly clenched, her eyes wide open in astonishment!
She didn’t expect that Thaddeus would be so obedient. He really didn’t hit Aaron!
He just stood there, letting Aaron hit him.
Aaron quickly ran over and hugged Evadne’s shoulders, his eyes warily fixated on Thaddeus whose
lips were bleeding, “Ba stard, if you dare touch my sister again, even if I get fired, I will beat you till your
own mom can’t recognize you!”
But Evadne felt scared inside.
Thaddeus was obviously pulling his punches.
In the end, Evadne didn’t make a fuss about the peeping Tom incident. After all, she had been Mrs.
Abernathy for three years. She knew what kind of man Gordon was.
Gordon was led back to the car by Thaddeus, looking like a punished kitten. His head was hung low,
one could almost see his imaginary tail between his legs.
“Sorry, Mr. Thaddeus. I messed up big time. Got nabbed by the cop like some lo ony, causing you all
this trouble.”
“Forget it,” Thaddeus said tersely, nursing his injured mouth.
“Mr. Thaddeus! You’re hurt!”
Only then did Gordon notice the blood at the corner of Thaddeus’ mouth. He was so heartbroken he
could cry. “Was it that cop who hit you?! How dare he lay his hands on innocent people! I’ll file a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcomplaint and make him answer for this!”
Innocent?
Thaddeus recalled how he had cornered Evadne. No matter how he looked at it, he wasn’t the innocent
one.
“Let’s put this behind us. Don’t stir up any more trouble.”
“But.”
“The cop you’re talking about is Evadne’s brother. He’s also one of Chairman Emeric’s sons, Thaddeus
said, recalling that face so similar to Emeric’s, regretting his slow reaction.
“Whoa, her brother?” Gordon exclaimed, “How come Evadne has so many brothers? One after another
challenge you. When will this end!”
Thaddeus closed his eyes. He wiped the blood from his mouth with his thumb and sighed.
He too wanted to know how many brothers Evadne had. Why didn’t they all come at him at once? He’d
had just about enough.
Just as he was getting annoyed, his phone rang.
Thaddeus pulled out his phone and stared at the name “Edith” on the screen, feeling even more
irritated.
“Edith, what’s up?” he answered, his tone icy.
“Thad!” Edith’s sweet voice filled his ear.
Suddenly, Thaddeus’ eyes shot open. He recalled Evadne’s teary-eyed statement: “You have so many
sweetheart sisters. Can’t I have a few good brothers?”
So that was it!
Thaddeus understood instantly. It was as if a shot of adrenaline had been injected into his heart,
making him sit up straight!
On the other line, Edith kept talking, “I’ve prepared the piece I’ll be performing at the banquet in three
days. I’m sending it to you in advance, tell me what you think?”
But Thaddeus wasn’t listening. His mind was filled with the implications behind Evadne’s words.
So, Evadne cared if he interacted with other women, right?
So, was she jealous?
“Thad? Thad? Are you listening?” Edith asked, sounding a little peeved.
“Can you call me by my full name?” Thaddeus asked, his voice deep.
“Huh?
“Your brother is Jareth, not me, so don’t call me by my nickname.”
