His Ex Wife is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus)

Chapter 302

Evadne could feel Thaddeus’s every hot, heavy breath against her neck, as warm as a flame flickering

against her porcelain skin.

A blush spread across her cheeks where his breath had touched.

“Thaddeus! Are you out of your mind? What on earth are you talking about? Thaddeus!”

Sweat soaked through the thin fabric of his pyjamas, wetting not only his clothes but also Evadne’s

Thaddeus was delirious with fever, his mind foggy and his body racked with pain as if it were falling

apart.

All he could think of was to hold onto the woman he loved. No matter how degrading or shameless it

seemed, he just couldn’t bear to let go.

“Evadne, don’t leave me. Don’t hate me.”

His wet face buried in her shoulder, his choked voice was heartbreaking to hear

Evadne felt the heat on her shoulder, unsure if it was his sweat or his tears.

In an instant, a wave of pain spread from her trembling heart to every nerve, slowly binding her heart.

She thought, “Thaddeus, you have never been this humble in front of me. When I was crying betting all

my pride begging you not to divorce me, not to leave me, you mercilessly threw the divorce papers in

front of me, forcing me to cut all ties with you, acting high and mighty, like a cold and detached deity”

Evadne watched his pitiful state, biting her lip, her eyes reddening “Thaddeus, are you delirious? What

nonsense are you talking about?” “It’s not nonsense. It’s the truth.”

Thaddeus shook his head stubbornly, beads of sweat rolling down his handsome face, “Evadne, I love

you.”

Evadne’s eyes widened.

She stiffened her neck, appearing calm, but her ears were flushed red

With the last bit of strength, he raised his head and gently touched her face.

His eyes were filled with deep love and longing, blurred yet touching.

“Evadne, I know what I’m saying. I’m saying I love you. Only you

The next second, Thaddeus lost consciousness and collapsed heavily onto her

“Ugh, damn it! Why does this have to happen here? You’re so heavy!”

Evadne’s eyes widened in panic and annoyance, her fists clenched, ready to punch him in the back.

But remembering his injuries, she released her grip and gently placed her hand on his soaked back,

sighing softly.

“Should have known better. Thaddeus, loving you is too painful, fer’s both just move on.”

Jareth and Gordon arrived at the villa at the same time.

Although Gordon sometimes acted like a hot–blooded young man, he was still the Chief Secretary of

the Abernathy Group and was good at reading the room. He noticed that Mr. Jareth’s expression was

very bad, very bad indeed.

“Mr. Gordon, how’s your boss doing?” Jareth asked anxiously

“He vomited blood twice and has a high fever

Gordon remembered Thaddeus painful state from the night before, his heart aching as if he wished he

could take the pain for him.

“How the hell did this happen? Damn it! Jareth’s eyes were bloodshot, his fists clenched.

“I’ve informed Mrs. Abernathy Mr Thaddeus has been taking the medicine Mrs. Abernathy gave him

and has gotten much better. I’m sure Mrs. Abernathy will have a solution” Gordon didn’t have any

better ideas, so he could only place all his hopes on Evadne

At that moment, Jareth noticed the black Bugatti parked at the entrance, recognizing it as Evadne’s car.

He pondered for a moment, his eyes narrowing. “Wait, let’s not rush in.”

“Huh?” Gordon looked confused.

“They rarely have time alone together. Let them have a moment“.

If he didn’t help out his friend at this time, what kind of friend would he be?

Thaddeus, who was nearly six foot three, collapsed on the floor, moving him back to the room was like

moving a mountain.

Thankfully, there was an elevator in the villa, and Evadne, with much effort, dragged Thaddeus’s body

back to the room like moving a corpse. By the time she helped him onto the bed, her dress was soaked

with sweat from both of them.

“You’m so heavy! I really want to dismember your

Evade was parting from the effort, but she had no time to rest. She quickly ran into the bathroom,

soaked a towel in cold water, and brought it back to cool Thaddeus down

After frashing she sat on the edge of the bed, too tired to move

“You’re really something, causing all this trouble with your high fever Do you know how troublesome

you are?”

Evadrie looked at Thaddeus, who was delinous with fever, her tone cold, but her heart was filled with

unease

After all, it was because of her that he was in the state

“Evade Thaddeus’s eyes were tightly closed his long lashes trembling even his sleep talking was filled

with affection for her

“Alright, alright, stop moaning like a ghost I’m here”

Evadne muttered to herself, pouting her lips, “If I knew there would be so much trouble. I would have

sent Jason instead, so I wouldn’t have to deal with your mess Just

Evadne was about to get up to look for some fever reducing medicine

Suddenly, Thaddeus opened his eyes, which were red from the fever, and quickly grabbed her wrist.

Evadne’s face changed, she struggled, “When did you wake up? Or did you never faint? You tricked

me, didn’t you?”

“I’ve never lied to you.”

Thaddeus’s breathing was labored, but the hand holding her wrist tightened, as if he was afraid she

would escape. “I just heard in my dream that you were leaving so I forced myself to wake up. Don’t go.

Stay with me for a while, just a little while.”

His usually cold eyes were teary, full of a warm glow that was only for her, deep and affectionate

Evadne’s heart fluttered like a buoy floating in the lake

She was brusque and terse, not even attempting to sugarcoat her words. Tve contacted Gordon and

he’ll be here soon. I’ve brought the medicine, and I helped you into bed. I’ve done what I should

“But staying with you is not my role. We’re divorced, Mr. Thaddeus, don’t make this any harder than it

needs to be”

However, as Evadne started to rise. Thaddeus sharply pulled her back into his warm embrace.

“Thaddeus!”

Immediately, a sense of vertigo washed over her, and Evadne let out a startled cry.

Thaddeus quickly rolled onto his side, positioning her beneath him.

Being careful not to apply too much pressure on her, he supported his weight on his elbows, his

muscular arms visible beneath his shirt.

Their breaths were fast, entangled, mingled

Evadne looked up at the man’s face, his eyes clear and bewitching like he was gazing at a sky full of

stars

“Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t force me?”

Her cheeks suddenly flushed, a tingling sensation spreading throughout her body.

A bead of Thaddeus’s sweat unexpectedly fell onto her face, leaving a metaphorical burn in her heart.

“Your words are worthless. You contradict yourself immediately. Are you playing games?”

“Who asked you to come see me at such a crucial time?”

Thaddeus‘ lips slightly curved into a smile, his desire obvious as he held her tightly, his gaze fixed on

her as if spellbound, “Ms. Evadre, are you trying to kill me while I’m

weak?”

Evadne’s face turned beet red, as she tried to argue back.

But Thaddeus didn’t give her the chance

He grasped her chin, lowering his head and capturing her

Downstairs, Jareth and Gordon waited awkwardly

in

a dominant kiss, prying open her mouth and entangling her in his heat

Gordon paced anxiously, occasionally glancing up the

Staircase.

Meanwhile, Jareth sat on the couch, his face dark as he stared unblinkingly at the video footage on his

phone

Over and over, he obsessively watched the clip of Marilla being bullied by Edith

The more he watched, the angrier he became.

“Mr. Jareth, what are you watching so intently?” Gordon asked curiously

Jareth coldly looked up. “Mind your own business.”

Gordon was taken aback by the icy stare and quickly retreated

As Jareth watched the video again, he noticed Marilla’s fearful reaction when Edith approached her.

She curled up into a pitiful ball, her hands tightly covering her head. Her actions were too practiced,

causing a pang of heartache in Jareth,

Wait a minute!

Jareth frowned, paying close attention to Marilla’s actions.

Was she acting like someone with PTSD? Could it be that she had often been physically abused at

home?

Was that why she had such a terrified reaction when Edith raised her hand at her?

When did you two get here? How come I didn’t know?”

Evade came down from the stairs and was surprised to see the two men quietly sitting in the living

room.

She quickly tried to calm her erratic breathing

Jareth quickly hid his phone, showing a mischievous grin towards Evadne, “Well, we didn’t want to

intrude. You two lovebirds finally have some time alone it’s better for us to not be a third wheel”

“Lovebirds? Really?

Evadne was so angry she was practically spitting fine wishing she could poke Jareth’s smug face with

her high heels!

Jareth crossed his legs, leaned back and studied her carefully

Seeing her flushed cheeks and glossy lips, Jareth, a man of experien raised his eyebrows in

amusement.

He thought, “Thaddeus, you’ve done it, havent you? Wow, you’re a sly one, aren’t you?

“Mrs Abernathy! You’m finally here! Mi Thaddeus is saved Gordon exclaimed with stars in his eyes,

almost tearing up

Evadne didn’t have time to correct his address. She said seriously. Mr Gordon Mr. Thaddeus’s fever is

a result of his internal injuries resurfacing It’s not something to be taken lightly Eve contacted a private

hospital under the K Group’s ownership, and arranged for their best doctors to see him. You and Mr.

Jareth should prepare to take him

there‘

Gordon bowed deeply. “Thank you, Mrs Abernathy! I knew you still cared for Mr Thaddeus! You

wouldn’t let him suffert

5/5

Whether or not I care for him has nothing to do with me not wanting to see him suffer. Don’t twist my

words.”

Evadne’s words were harsh. She refused to play into Gordon’s narrative.

She descended the stairs and walked over to Jareth, her gaze was icy.

Jareth met her gaze, feeling a strange pressure in his chest.

“Mr. Jareth, can we talk?”
