His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 745
Chapter 745
Glynnis was ranting and raving in front of Marilla like a rabid dog, spewing venom with every word, her actions serving as an unwitting confession of her own downfall.
For a moment, Marilla’s clear, doe–like eyes widened in shock. It was then she noticed the hearing aids hanging on Glynnis‘ ears, previously obscured by her hair, which Marilla hadn’t seen clearly.
“You bitch. I may be deaf, but I won’t let you get off easy before I leave. I’ll make you deaf too!”
No sooner had the words left her mouth than Glynnis, with a surge of fury, drew back her arm and aimed a wrath–filled blow at Marilla’s face!
Unexpectedly, the sister who had once been her victim nimbly dodged aside. Then with a sharp crack, Marilla, in a refiexive move she had never made before, slapped Glynnis across the cheek!
Even the passing servants froze in shock, followed by a surge of secret satisfaction. Ms. Marilla Abernathy was finally standing up for herself. It looked
like she would be the one calling the shots for the Abernathy family!
“Ah!” Glynnis howled, clutching her face.

“Sis, no, you’re not my sister.”
Marilla curled her fingers and shook her head gently, “The moment you betrayed me, you ceased to be my sister. But I won’t resent or hate you anymore because you’re not worth it. With that slap, we’re even.”
“Even? Ha! Our feud will last a lifetime! I’ll fight you to the end!”
Glynnis‘ face turned beet red with suppressed rage, and she lunged at Marilla again with claws bared!
This tMarilla couldn’t dodge in time. She instinctively hunched her shoulders when a tall, imposing figure stepped in front of her, shoving Glynnis away with force.
Glynnis fell hard on the ground, unable to get up from the pain in her backside!
“Th–Thaddeus!”
Marilla gazed up at Thaddeus‘ reassuring silhouette, her tense heart finally relaxing.
Glynnis stared in horror at the man’s stern face, scooting backward on the fioor.
“A leopard can’t change its spots,” Thaddeus looked at her coldly, shielding Marilla behind him.
“Thaddeus, why don’t you go fiex your muscles with the Fairhaven Group, huh?! What kind of hero are you, bullying a defenseless woman?!” Glynnis‘ voice trembled with fear, yet she couldn’t muster a comeback.
Because her pride wouldn’t let her swallow the insult!
“I never wanted to be a hero. I just wanted to protect my sister; that’s all,” Thaddeus said indifferently, his eyes softening only for Marilla.
Glynnis watched this bitterly ironic scene unfold, her heart a mix of anger, jealousy, and pain. She had never truly accepted Thaddeus as her brother, but both she and Marilla had cfrom their mother Elspeth, so why did he only care for this fool, never once truly treating her as a sister?
“All your bank cards have been frozen. Once you’re abroad, you’ll receive a monthly allowance of a thousand dollars. Don’t even think about asking Dad for more; he won’t give it to you. And even if he does, I’ll be monitoring your accounts monthly. Any suspicious transactions, and I’ll freeze them instantly,” Thaddeus‘ gaze was icy, crushing her hopes mercilessly.
Glynnis pounded the fioor in frustration, “Thaddeus, you might as well kill me!”
A thousand bucks? What a joke! That wouldn’t even cover one hair treatment!

Thaddeus wrapped his arm around his sister’s delicate shoulders and turned to leave, “It’s hard to go from luxury to frugality, but you’ll get used to it.”
“Ha! I might be beaten, but you’re no better off!” Glynnis‘ mocking laughter pierced their backs, her face twisted in malice, “Marilla, such a pure maiden, played by your dear friend Jareth until she’s worthless, tainted in body and ruined in reputation at Elmsworth. And after all that, still rejected by the Fairhaven Group as a fool, her dreams of marrying Jareth shattered! What a fool’s errand!”
Thaddeus‘ features tightened, gripping Marilla’s trembling shoulder.

Glynnis‘ shouts, amplified by her hearing loss, drew the Abernathy family’s servants to watch, “He tried every trick in the book to marry Marilla, but in the end, he got nothing, didn’t he?
Jareth must be furious now! Ha! I wanted him to taste the agony of never getting what he desires. That’s my sweet revenge! What I can’t have, neither can he!”
Her words, each one sharp as frost and blade, pierced Marilla’s heart, squeezing it with pain.
“The current turmoil is only temporary.” Thaddeus‘ jaw clenched, “As long as they still love each other in their hearts, no one, nothing can tear them apart.”
“Really? We’ll see about that.”
Glynnis stumbled to her feet, “I saw it with my own eyes, Mr. and Mrs. Bartley coming to Dad with a marriage proposal for their son Alston!”
“What did you say?” Thaddeus spun around sharply.
Marilla clutched the teddy bear in her arms, her brow beading with sweat, her heartbeat thundering.
“Oh, so there are things even the all–knowing Mr. Abernathy doesn’t know.”
Glynnis sneered with malicious glee, “I said, the Bartley family has taken a fancy to Marilla. They don’t mind that she’s a simpleton, begging Dad to let her bectheir son’s bride. If Dad agrees to this match, and
Marilla marries Alston, then your dear friend won’t stand a chance. Tsk, tsk, Marilla, I never realized you were
so charming. I thought only Jareth had lost his senses over you, but Alston’s caught your spell too. Quite the vixen, aren’t you?”
