His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 711

Avery's throat was choked with bitterness, his voice hoarse to the point of near silence, his tone heavier than ever before.

"You know how much I've struggled for this day, to bring Matthew to justice. How much I've prepared? Even if you wanted to avenge your brother, couldn't you wait until after tonight? Why did you have to reveal all this at the banquet?!"

Evadne's deep gaze didn't waver, coldly watching him accuse her.

"My mother suffered a grave injustice. I've lain low for fifteen years just to clear her name, to make Matthew kneel and beg for her forgiveness!"

Avery's lips turned pale and quivered, "Evadne, I was about to achieve that; why couldn't you give me this chance? Why?!"

"Mr. Chambers, your mother's plight is indeed heartbreaking, but I will not halt my quest for vengeance on your behalf."

Evadne's gaze was icily detached, "Perhaps, for your own selfish ends, you'd prefer to slaughter the beast later, to safeguard your interests and those of the Chambers Group to the fullest. But I can't wait another moment; I want him to not see the dawn. Besides, wasn't using us as the blade to dispose of Matthew exactly what you wanted to see? People can't ask more than they deserve, Mr. Chambers."

Avery's pupils dilated in shock, "Evadne, what do you mean by that? I really don't understand!"

"Chew on the meaning yourself."

Evadne had had enough of his pretense, finding every additional word to him a disrespect to herself, and so she swiftly turned and climbed into the car.

"Evadne." Avery's throat felt pierced by a sharp thorn, the pain stabbing straight to his heart.

"Thaddeus, I'm starving. Let's get something to eat," Evadne leaned forward in the car, her eyes playfully fixed on the man's strong back.

Her coquettish whine was like twisting the knife deeper into Avery's heart.

"Sure."

Thaddeus responded gently, but before he got into the car, his steely gaze locked onto Avery again, his thin lips curving slightly, "I know you're not just upset for your mother. You're just not content; that's all."

Watching the luxury car speed away, dust trailing behind, Avery felt a cold rage boiling within him as his eyes reddened with fury!

Thaddeus had provoked him, stripped away his facade of pretense. Not content, he truly wasn't content.

The stage he meticulously set wasn't for his own play. Just like in Evadne's world, he was forever an onlooker shrouded in darkness, never able to stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

"Mr. Chambers!"

Harvey ran over, sweating profusely, "Tonight's incident has blown up on social media, and it's not subsiding. The evening news has even broadcasted Matthew's arrest! I've got the PR department trying to squash it, but it's not working! The stock price is going to tank when the market opens tomorrow!"

Avery clenched his jaw, his fists trembling with fury, "How could their investigation be so precise?! Matthew's indeed a rotten mess with countless loopholes. But how could they know about Matthew using the Chambers Fund to traffic girls to high-profile figures, these backroom deals? It's exactly what we found out!"

"Yeah, I'm puzzled too!"

Harvey looked utterly bewildered, "Ms. Ashbourne and Mr. Abernathy acted against Matthew because President Ashbourne and that scion of the Bright family's scandal came to light. If Ms. Ashbourne and Mr. Abernathy had known about Matthew's crimes earlier, they would've acted sooner, not waited until now to reveal it. The evidence they gathered is so extensive and detailed in such a short time; it's impossible unless divine intervention is at play!"

Indeed, how could it be possible. Whatever he discovered, they did too. Too coincidental to be a coincidence!
