His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1274

At the far end of the hallway.

Bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, Thaddeus stood in silhouette. His tall, broad-shouldered frame looked like a perfectly sculpted, timeless statue.

“Why would I go check on him?” Evadne lowered her eyes, suppressing her emotions so fiercely her voice sounded hard, almost foreign to her own ears.

“He got hurt. I imagine it happened when he was wrestling the knife away from that attacker.”

Chad watched her impassive profile intently. “Regardless of your past, he did do it to save you...”

“He and I are completely finished. I already looked back for him once; I won't make the same mistake twice.”

Evadne’s beautiful eyes were resolute, treating the man down the hall as nothing more than a stranger. “I only have one heart, and I refuse to waste my energy on irrelevant people. Mr. Abernathy, let me take you home.”

Hearing this, a deep, satisfied smile spread across Chad’s lips. “Alright.”

The two of them walked right past Thaddeus, leaving him behind.

Thaddeus parted his dry lips, but his throat felt as though it had been stuffed with wet cotton. Not a single sound came out.

“Sir, I got the prescription. Let's go,” Gordon rushed over.

Seeing Evadne supporting Chad as they walked away, Gordon felt a mix of frustration and heartbreak. “President Ashbourne is just... why is she getting so close to that viper? She should at least consider your feelings.”

“We have no relationship. Why should she care about my feelings?”

Thaddeus kept his dark gaze fixed on the direction Evadne had disappeared, his bandaged hand slowly clenching into a tight fist at his side. “Right now, to her, Chad is the most important person in her life.”

Those words pierced Gordon’s heart.

He had watched his boss and Evadne fight through hell together. They had shared an earth-shattering love, protecting each other with their lives. They had held onto each other even when the world fell apart.

And now, they were practically strangers. His boss had to stand by and watch the love of his life walk away with his greatest enemy.

Every encounter was pure torture.

“Sir! Your wound opened!” Gordon panicked, staring at the fresh crimson blood blooming across the white gauze.

“It's fine. Let's go,” Thaddeus replied, his chest rising and falling heavily as he walked away, his face pale.
