His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 113

"No biggie, just make sure you show up during court hours, okay? Let's not carry today's work into tomorrow, alright?"

With a frosty tone, Evadne took the lead and headed for the entrance.

Thaddeus was left behind.

He recalled the day, three years ago, when they had agreed to register their marriage. However, due to an emergency meeting called by the project leader of Aetheria, he had to stay back for a meeting.

After the meeting, there were important guests to entertain. By the time he finished, he suddenly realized he had forgotten to tell her to postpone the town hall visit.

The memories became clearer and crueler.

When he finally made it to the town hall that day, there was almost no one around. Only Evadne was standing there, head down, her slender figure looking both lonely and pitiful.

He never thought she would wait the whole day.

He never thought there could be such a steadfast girl in the world.

At that time, Thaddeus wanted to apologize, but Mr. Hamiltion's insistence, his own aversion to a contract marriage, and Acacia's departure at that time made him unable to voice his apology.

"Thaddeus, you finally arrived!"

Even now, when he closed his eyes, he could still see Evadne's warm smile, like sunshine.

Back then, he didn't understand what it would take for this woman to completely give up on him.

Now he understood. It's abandonment, ruthlessly abandoning her, that made her give up on him.

A sense of guilt pricked Thaddeus. With a rigid expression, he followed Evadne through the entrance.

"Are they here to register for marriage? Wow, they're a perfect match, absolutely perfect!"

"But both of them don't seem very happy."

"The lady must be angry; didn't you see the man was late? He deserves it for being late for such an important event!"

"This guy seems less well-off than this beauty; he had to take a cab, and he's so arrogant. There're so many men living off women these days!"

Thaddeus felt a surge of anger and shot a glare at the young man who was gossiping.

His aura was too overpowering, and the young man immediately shut up.

The divorce section.

Evadne and Thaddeus sat side by side in front of the clerk, handing over the documents.

The clerk looked left and right and coughed lightly. "Are you sure you won't reconsider? It hasn't been easy all these years."

"I don't lack money, nor does he. The meals at home are cooked by the maid, and his transportation is arranged by his secretary. Nothing is a problem." Evadne said it coldly.

Thaddeus kept silent.

The clerk lowered his head and processed the divorce.

Evadne looked at her watch and said, "Please hurry up; I've got things to do."

"I see in the materials that you don't have children. Are there any assets to be divided?" the clerk asked.

Evadne said, "No."

Thaddeus was silent. He originally wanted to give her some financial compensation, but she refused.

Now she was the heiress of the Ashbourne Group. The money he could give seemed more like an insult to her.

"Then please sign here."

The clerk handed over two forms. Evadne quickly signed her name, then turned to look at the man beside her.

However, Thaddeus hadn't started signing yet.

What was more surprising was that his fingers were slightly trembling.

Evadne frowned.

He wouldn't want to put on some tragic farewell scenes here, would he?

"Mr. Thaddeus, hurry up and sign. Is there a word you can't write?"

Evadne quickly ran over to help him up, only to find that his arm was trembling even worse than before!

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Thaddeus was sweating profusely, but he didn't tell the truth.

"Tell the truth! Tell me now!" Evadne was somewhat anxious, her tone carrying an authoritative edge.

Thaddeus was in pain and dizzy, but seeing her worry for him, a warmth rose in his heart.

"Do you care about me?"

Evadne's lips twitched, and she smiled. "Even if a dog on the street falls, I can't ignore it. After all, you are a life so I have no reason not to care."

Thaddeus' pale face turned even paler, and he slowly pushed her away.

"I don't need your sympathy and I don't need your help."

"You should go to the hospital. Sudden loss of balance and fall might indicate a problem with the cerebellum." Evadne said it seriously.

"Evadne, are you resentful towards me because you divorced me? So every time you have the chance, you lash out at me?" Thaddeus looked at her coldly, his lips tight.

"You're overthinking, dude. I'm neither that petty nor that bored." Evadne put on a forced smile, finding this man a real pain in the ass. "And you've got it all wrong. I'd be jumping for joy. Since you can take care of yourself, I can stop wasting my energy on you. Just live your life; I'm out."

Thaddeus was seething with rage, his eyes were red.

The moment Evadne let go, he lost balance and collapsed onto her again.

Suddenly, their bodies were pressed close together.

Her heaving chest inadvertently pushed against his, making his breathing even heavier.

His trembling hand couldn't help but creep up the curve of her waist, wrapped in her red dress.

Either the mind or the body, one of them was always out of control.

"Get your hands off me!" Evadne's eyes were sharp, and she gritted her teeth fiercely. "Or else, I'll chop it off and give it to my pet crocodile as a toy!"
