His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 710

Aaron's arrival sent Matthew stumbling backward in an ungainly stagger, his scalp nearly bursting with terror!

At that moment, four undercover cops streamed in, positioning themselves behind Aaron, forming an impenetrable wall of steel!

Avery's heart skipped a beat as the cops barged in unexpectedly, his sinister gaze flicking toward the unruffled Thaddeus. And the latter, meeting his malevolent stare, narrowed his dark, austere eyes ever so slightly.

The thick air seemed charged with two sharp arrows clashing viciously, or two formidable forces of ice and fire invisibly confronting each other!

Avery had planned to stage a grand spectacle tonight. Well, Thaddeus was about to fuel that fire, to burn it so fiercely that it would spiral out of Avery's control.

Marilla, catching sight of the long-absent Aaron, lit up with a doe-eyed sparkle. Almost reflexively, she lifted her hand to wave, "Hey."

But then she felt a weight on her shoulder; she slowly looked up to find Jareth's chiseled jawline towering over her, and her heart clenched tight, her hand falling back to her side, her gaze dropping, too timid to look Aaron's way again.

"What do you want?!" Matthew's face paled with panic, his legs quivering uncontrollably inside his trousers.

"Matthew, you're under arrest for charges of bribery, embezzlement, and rape. Now we’re operating execution of arrest by law. This is the warrant." Aaron's voice cold and procedural as usual, as he flashed the arrest warrant in front of him, "Do you understand what I said earlier?"

"I don't understand!"

Matthew felt as if the sky had collapsed on him in a deafening roar, his mind spinning, "What do you mean? What evidence do you have to arrest me?!"

Aaron, a seasoned cop, had seen the depths of human depravity.

Facing Matthew's pathetic excuses, Aaron remained expressionless, yet each word he uttered resonated with irrefutable authority, "It's not me seizing you; it's the law, meting out justice and seeking retribution for the victims. Matthew, you have the right to remain silent. But for a man of the Chambers family, this is your last shred of dignity."

Just as Aaron was about to cuff Matthew forcibly, the banquet hall's large screen flickered to life. What followed were harrowing images and the heart-wrenching cries of young girls in agony! Each cry struck a chord in the hearts of those who still harbored a sliver of conscience!

Though the girls' identities were obscured, Matthew's monstrous face was unmistakably exposed!

And all of this was broadcasted live by the media to the internet, spreading Matthew's atrocities like wildfire across the nation. The Chambers Group's attempts to suppress the truth were futile.

With a chilling click, the cold handcuffs snapped shut around the wrists of the beast who had brutalized countless young women.

"It's not me. That's not me in the video!"

Matthew, scion of a powerful legacy, clung desperately to life even in the face of doom, "That video is fake! That's not me in it!"

"Then who could it possibly be?"

Elva, with her serene and cold beauty, stepped firmly to the center of the crowd, her eyes brimming with deep-seated hatred, fearlessly locking gazes with Matthew, "These videos were copied from your study's computer. By now, the police must have seized your computer, and those files are incontrovertible evidence."

Matthew realized too late that he had been outplayed by the woman he had trusted most! He remembered how she had acted out of normal behavior and seduced him in his study that night, a ruse to set him up!

She didn't have the brains or the guts for this, but now she seemed emboldened. Could it be?

When he caught Evadne and Elva exchanging glances, his scalp tingled with dread, his neck muscles bulging with rage.

"Bitch. You even conspired with outsiders against me! This isn’t the end!"

Elva's gaze remained calm and undisturbed as she watched the hideous man before her, her rosy lips curling into a smile, a single tear tracking down her cheek.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, she boldly slipped off her emerald evening gown, revealing her scar-marred body to the gathered crowd.

"Elva." Evadne gasped at the sight of the resolute and unflinching Elva, her soul shivering for the woman.

Though covered only by a thin, white silk slip, the tangled scars on her limbs were a shocking, chilling sight.

"Matthew, in all the years I've been married to you, was there ever a day you spared me?"

Elva's smile was a tragic mask, filled with enough venom to tear him apart, "When you were upset, you hit me; when things didn't go your way, you hit me; you even forced me to sell my body to please the Chambers Group’s business associates. When I refused, you beat me mercilessly. I survived not because you showed mercy, but because I refused to die. Otherwise, you would have killed me a hundred times over!"

The brutal truth exploded like thunderclaps, one after another. Matthew was less than human, a vile creature, a demon devoid of all conscience.

And as the Chambers Group's image which had been carefully managed by Avery began to crumble once again, the scandal exploded more fiercely, more violently, blindsiding everyone.

The name "Chambers Group" would forever be synonymous with every sin in this world. Their reputation, once at rock bottom, now struggled to rise, shaking even the foundations of one of the four great families.

In that moment, Avery's face drained of color, his cheeks twitching with suppressed rage. The image he had so carefully rebuilt was shattered once again.

He knew that Thaddeus and Evadne were to blame for this chaos!
