His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 1034

"The doctor said it's a combination of heartache, way too much drinking, and living off coffee and bagels at odd

hours. Plus, Evadne's always had stomach issues— she picked that up when she used to work on the frontlines,

patching up wounded soldiers. Hardly ever got a proper meal," Cassius explained.

Chasel stared, stunned. "Wait-Evadne actually served on the frontlines?"

"Yeah. Back when Country L was caught up in civil war, she volunteered with Doctors Without Borders. She saved

a ton of civilians and peacekeepers," Cassius's voice was a mix of pride and sorrow, his eyes clouding over with

memories.

Chasel's jaw dropped. "Jesus, the Ashbournes are insane! Country L was a warzone-terrorists, kidnappings,

bombings. And you let Evadne, a girl, go all the way out there? How could you not lose your minds with worry?"

Cassius went quiet for a moment, taking a shaky breath before replying, "It wasn't easy. But she was dead set on

following Thaddeus. Where he went, she went. None of us could talk her out of it."

Chasel's head spun. "Hold up. Evadne risked her life in a warzone for Thaddeus?"

"Thaddeus was with the UN peacekeepers. Got deployed to Country L for a high- risk mission," Cassius said, his

voice tight with emotion. "Evadne only applied for the field mission so she could see him. She nearly didn't make

it back."

Chasel's eyes blazed. He slammed his fist on the porch railing. "Was Thaddeus even worth it? That guy's a total

jerk now! | caught him cozying up to Alexia right after he woke up. Gave him a piece of my mind and a slap. He

just said he and Evadne were over!"

He wiped angrily at his eyes, voice breaking. "Cassius, honestly... Thaddeus acting like this, he might as well

have stayed in a coma. Would've been better than this crap."

"Chasel..."

"Evadne had to stand there,

watching him shut her out, watching him flirt with another woman. That's the kind of heartbreak that drops you

from heaven to hell, you know? | regret ever saving his life. Should've just let him sleep-being a goddamn

vegetable would be better than this!"

"Chasel, don't forget-Thaddeus is only like this because he risked everything for Evadne," Cassius said, voice low

and steady. "Sthings are just fate. If they're meant to be, Thaddeus will remember why he loved her. And if

not... maybe that's for the best. All that matters is they both stay alive and healthy."

Chasel fished a tissue from his pocket, dabbing at his tears. "I'll swing by the hospital to see Evadne when I'm

done here."

"No rush. She's worn out and could use the rest anyway."

"Hey, Cassius-your birthday's the day after tomorrow," Chasel said glancing at his wedding band with a shy,

happy grin. "You know me, I'm not great at surprises like you are. If you want something, just say so...

Cassius chuckled softly, his warmth radiating through the phone. "Okay, don't work overtthat night."

Chasel blinked, fox-like eyes sparkling. "That's it?"

Cassius's voice dropped, low and rough. "And then, get cleaned up. Wait for me."

Chasel rolled his eyes, cheeks flushed red, but his heart was already racing. "You old rascal! | knew you'd say

that."
