His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1346

Chad was publicly escorted out of the building, leaving the boardroom in a state of absolute chaos.

"Mr. Frederic, what on earth is going on? Why are the police targeting Mr. Chad?!"

"Could that Austin guy's death actually have something to do with him?"

"The CEO of the Abernathy group was just hauled away by the police in broad daylight! When this leaks, the damage to our corporate reputation will be catastrophic!"

When push came to shove, the board members only cared about the company's bottom line.

Because the company's bottom line directly affected their own pockets.

"Quiet down, everyone! Do not panic! Captain Ashbourne made it perfectly clear that Chad is merely assisting with an investigation. He hasn't been named a suspect! The victim was his uncle, after all!"

Frederic was internally panicking, but he had to project authority to stabilize the room. "This meeting is adjourned. I will notify you when we reconvene. You are dismissed!"

Though Chad was only there to assist and hadn't been handcuffed, Aaron deliberately parked two marked police cruisers side-by-side right at the front doors of the Abernathy headquarters, drawing massive crowds and relentless whispers.

Maintaining a composed smile, Chad elegantly stepped into the back of the police car.

But inside, he wasn't smiling at all.

He knew exactly why Aaron had chosen today to make this grand spectacle. Thaddeus and his allies were pulling the strings. They knew they lacked hard evidence to pin Mason's murder on him, so they engineered a media circus to drag him into the center of a brutal public relations storm.

Public opinion, wild speculation, relentless criticism, and character assassination.

It wouldn't kill him, but it would stick to him like industrial glue, restricting his every move and destabilizing his foundation within the Abernathy group.

Sure enough, the moment Chad was put in the squad car, news of his police summons exploded across social media platforms, trending instantly.

This rapid, orchestrated response was the opening salvo of Evadne's counterattack.
