His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 765

"Can't even handle this simple task? There goes your bonus, huh?" Thad's temples throbbed with barely contained fury.

"Thad, don't panic. Let's just take it slow," Evadne said; her voice was calm in the storm.

"Glynnis left the hospital that day, and I had my guys tail her. They saw her being pulled into a white Bentley. She stayed in there for quite a while!"

Evadne felt a wave of unease wash over her.

Thad's voice was icy cold. "Where did the car take her?"

"Nowhere special. It parked for a bit and then dropped her back off at her apartment. She didn't leave the place for three days, not even taking out the trash. That's when my guys got suspicious; we broke in, only to find she'd vanished without packing a single suitcase!"

"How about her passport and ID?" Evadne pressed.

"Gone too! It's like she disappeared into thin air!"

Gordon’s voice cracked with desperation, "I had people watching the airport. She has no money, no passport, no ID. Where could she possibly run to? She can't just stow away on a ship!"

"Someone must have noted that white Bentley's plate number. Text it to me. I'll have my brother check it out."

Evadne gripped his hand firmly. "This isn't as straightforward as it seems. It must be someone who’s pulling the strings behind the scenes that helped Glynnis escape.

Thad, keep a close eye on Elmsworth for the next few days. I have a hunch Glynnis will try to make her way back there!"

Their fingers intertwined tightly. "If she comes back, she's signing her own death warrant."

"Maybe not this time."

Evadne's heart clenched as she analyzed the situation. "The fact that she left everything behind tells me whoever's behind this is powerful enough to get her back to Elmsworth without a passport and without being detected. Think hard, Thad. Who could do that and would want to help Glynnis?"

Thad's brooding gaze flickered with a complex emotion.

When he looked back at Evadne, she beat him to the punch, "Could it be your brother, Chad?"

His grip on her hand tightened ever so slightly.

Because the name she uttered was the very one he'd been considering.

"Miss, could it be Snakey Avery's handiwork? He's got the means," Jason threw another name into the hat.

Evadne shook her head slightly. "Think about it, Jason. With Snakey Avery's cunning, would he not foresee that we'd have Glynnis under 24/7 surveillance here? We've got his number; he wouldn't dare intervene so blatantly. No, whoever's helping her is counting on us not being familiar with them, which would make it hard for us to trace them. That's why I suspect Chad might be involved. Though I can't fathom his motives, I can't think of anyone else with the resources to pull this off."
