His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 767

After Glynnis successfully made her way back to Elmsworth with the aid of a Ms. Acacia, she holed up like a fugitive in a bungalow on the outskirts of a small village, only daring to wander nearby to pick up essentials and never venturing too far for fear of being caught.

She avoided hotels and inns, terrified that if she showed her face in town, Thaddeus' men would snatch her up on the spot.

Living like a sewer rat just added fuel to the fire of her hatred and ignited her desperate longing for revenge to alter her circumstances.

As night fell, Glynnis arranged to meet Edith at a quaint, nearly deserted cafe on the outskirts of town.

When their coffee arrived, Edith sniffed it disdainfully and pushed it away:

"What is this, horse piss? You expect me to drink this?"

Glynnis, unfazed, took a calm sip, "This is cat poop coffee."

"Bullshit, I'd know cat poop coffee by its smell, this is just plain crap!"

Edith couldn't resist the urge to taunt, "Well, look at you, Ms. Glynnis, how you've changed. You can stomach such filth now. Quite adaptable, aren't we?"

"Experiencing the common folk's life has its charms," Glynnis replied expressionlessly, taking another sip.

Edith's phone rang, and she stepped outside to take the call.

In the blink of an eye, Glynnis' eyes darkened; she viciously bit her finger and dripped blood tainted with the HIV virus into Edith's coffee.

While she stirred it with a spoon, a sinister smile spread across her face.

After everything was set, Edith returned.

"Edith, we're like sisters. I know this is beneath you," Glynnis said with a pitiful expression, pleading, "Just take a sip for me, will you?"

Edith basked in the degradation of the once high and mighty Glynnis; as she was thirsty now, she took a big gulp without suspicion.

Glynnis suppressed a smile, internally bursting with vengeful glee.

"Let's cut to the chase. You mentioned the collaboration last time, I'm in," Edith said elegantly, setting down her cup.

"But what's your plan? After the last incident, they'll surely tighten security around that fool. Do you really have a chance?"

"I hear that Aaron is courting Marilla."

Edith scoffed, "With that tramp Evadne playing matchmaker, your grandfather is over the moon about this match. Even if your dad steps in, it won't stop them. Since Aaron is after her, they're bound to date, right? They'll have to go out alone at some point. How could we not find an opportunity?"

"Aren’t you thinking too simple? The Ashbournes are no easy targets, and Evadne's brothers are not to be trifled with."
