His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 112

Acacia got a real smackdown.

"I've said it over and over again: whatever your plans are, don't drag Glynnis in! If you continue this shit, don't blame me for playing hardball!"

"I messed up. I acted impulsively. I swear I won't do it again!"

Acacia was burning up inside, but she had to keep groveling to Elspeth.

Elspeth sneered at this woman, who was bowing and scraping.

If the Frost Group weren't short on manpower, there was no way she would back a disobedient and scheming woman like Acacia marrying Thaddeus!

But, as they say, train soldiers for a thousand days and use them for an hour. After nurturing Acacia for so many years, she didn't want to ditch this tool at a crucial moment.

Tonight's events left a bad taste in her mouth, but despite all that, she had to keep using this tool!

"Now that Ilana is the heiress of the Ashbourne family, a notoriously pampering family led by Emeric, you won't be able to lay a hand on her! The most important thing now is for you to win Thaddeus's heart as quickly as possible and marry him according to plan! That's what matters the most!"

Elspeth's lips were tight, matching her red lipstick, she looked downright menacing.

"But Thaddeus clearly wants to cut ties with me! Like Mr. Frederic said, once Thaddeus thinks about breaking up with me, no one can stop him!"

Acacia, seeing her dream of marrying into a wealthy family teetering on the brink, burst into tears again.

"But he hasn't decided to take that step yet!" Elspeth's eyes were cold as she suddenly grabbed Acacia's shoulder. "Acacia, don't contact Thaddeus for the next few days; don't leave the house; don't see anyone; give everyone the impression that you're deeply troubled because of Thaddeus!"

"Will this work?" Acacia expressed doubt.

"Acacia, you might have to eat some humble pie and endure some hardship. But listen to me, only by stirring up a man's deep memories of you and reminding him of your good side can you win his heart back!"

At night, Thaddeus sat in his study, smoking one cigarette after another, surrounded by smoke, his deep eyes looking hazy and his face stern and noble.

Thinking of Evadne's words, "See you at nine tomorrow morning. Let's finish the divorce proceedings at the court," he couldn't sleep.

As for Evadne, after visiting Cassius in the hospital, Jason and Emeric took her back to her villa in Elmsworth.

After all, she had to go to court with Thaddeus for a formal divorce in the morning, so she had to somehow send Emeric, the big shot, back to Skyrim.

After removing her makeup, taking a bath, and doing her skincare, she ate a bowl of noodles, put on an eye mask, and fell asleep until dawn.

Due to some twists and turns at Mr. Hamiltion's birthday banquet yesterday, Evadne had expended a lot of energy, so when she woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and she didn't even have breakfast!

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?"

Evadne, with tassel earrings and a slightly furrowed brow, descended the stairs.

Jason hurried over in his apron, seeing Evadne, who was pretty much makeup-free.

Her skin was delicate and clear, her eyes bright, her lips rosy, and she was so beautiful that it was hard to look away.

Even though he could see her like this every day, he was always amazed and never got tired of it.

"I saw you were really tired last night so I didn't wake you up. I wanted you to sleep longer."

"But you can't do that. Today is the day I get a divorce!" Evadne glared at Jason discontentedly, saying, "I always respect time, plus if I'm late on a day like this, that arrogant jerk Thaddeus might think I can't let him go."

"I've been waiting for this day, it's really something to celebrate." Jason said it sincerely.

"Yeah, you see, I even wore a new dress to celebrate this day." Evadne twirled around.

Jason was worried that Evadne might feel uncomfortable on this day, but it turned out his worries were unnecessary.

"Ms. Evadne, have some food before you go."

"No time; pack it up for me; I'll eat it in the car!"

After another half an hour of waiting, as Evadne's patience was gradually wearing thin, a taxi stopped at the door.

When Thaddeus stepped out of the taxi, she could hardly believe her eyes.

"Oh my God, am I seeing this right? Mr. Thaddeus actually took a taxi? What happened to his fancy car?" Jason's eyes widened.

"Maybe he wanted to keep a low profile. After all, getting divorced isn't exactly something to brag about."

Evadne yawned and got out of the car with Jason.

Today, Thaddeus was still dressed in his favorite wide-collar black suit with thin gray stripes, a misty blue shirt, and a dark tie. He was serious, calm, and disciplined, just like his personality.

The moment this handsome man appeared, he caught everyone's attention. The girls were excited and would have probably screamed if they weren't with their boyfriends.

And when Evadne confidently walked towards Thaddeus, all the men couldn't hide their excitement!

"Wow. Look at her face; it's so fresh and clear, like a piece of fresh fruit. Is that her real skin?"

"She looks like she's not wearing makeup. Her dress is so pretty! Probably cost a fortune!"

"Definitely a fake no-makeup look! It just means she's good at applying makeup to look natural!"

"That just shows she has a good base! Others can't achieve this look no matter how they try!"

These young people, who usually either watched dramas or variety shows, didn't recognize this handsome man as the CEO of the Abernathy Group, Thaddeus.

The taxi added to the disguise of his identity.

Evadne stood before him, her gaze cold. "Mr. Thaddeus?"

"Something came up on the way; I'm late." Thaddeus spoke first, moving his lips slightly. "I'm sorry."
