His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1337

Evadne gasped. "What?!"

Myra looked deeply worried. "The Emperor is in your father's study right now, having a private meeting with him. The boys are waiting outside, but your father won't let them in. No matter how anxious we are, there's nothing we can do."

Evadne sensed that something massive was about to unfold, immediately stepping out of her room.

"I'm going to go look!"

Inside the study...

The atmosphere was delicate, oppressive, and thick with an unseen tension.

Emeric Ashbourne and Emperor Benedict of Helgen sat across from each other on the sofas. Two wildly dominant auras clashed silently in the air.

Dylan stood dutifully by Emeric's side. He lowered his eyes, letting out a heavy, bitter sigh.

He always knew this day would come.

But he never imagined it would actually happen.

And of all times, it had to happen now, when Emeric's health was at its most fragile, when he desperately needed his children gathered around him for care and comfort.

It was too cruel.

This was simply too cruel to Emeric.

The royal family's visit had been highly classified and low-profile. Even the Empress was unaware that her husband had traveled so far. She simply believed the Emperor was overwhelmed with grief over the loss of the Crown Prince and had retreated to an island palace to recover, forbidding any disturbances.

Losing a biological son—the legitimate heir to the throne, no less—was undoubtedly agonizing.

But as the ruler of a nation, he couldn't allow himself to drown in sorrow for long. He had to pull himself together rapidly to secure a future for the royal family and quell the political turbulence back home.
