His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) novel Chapter 1389

Night fell over Elmsworth Airport.

The Abernathy group's private jet touched down on the tarmac. The cabin door opened, and the airstairs lowered into place.

Thaddeus cut a striking, imposing figure as he stood at the exit. The bitter midnight wind howled past, ruffling his dark hair and whipping his black tie sharply in the air.

He walked down the steps with Gordon close behind him. His assistant let out a frustrated sigh.

"Damn it, getting into the KING CLUB takes more than just money. They make it feel like an extreme political background check. And we still haven't gotten a definitive answer. This waiting game is agonizing."

After all, the only way to shatter the darkness—

—was to completely immerse oneself in it.

Evadne had told him that exact sentiment more than once.

And she had lived by those words.

That was why she had chosen to bury her deep, burning love for him. She had forced down her visceral disgust to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with a monster like Chad.

Thaddeus refused to let her face that evil alone. She had leapt headfirst into the abyss for the people she cared about, and he wouldn't hesitate to follow her into the depths.

That was the sole reason he had traveled to Country M, calling in every favor and leveraging every connection to gain entry into the mysterious, sinister KING CLUB. He needed a membership.

He knew that place was Chad's true stronghold.

It was his brother's ultimate shield, his financial backer, and the source of his unchecked audacity in Elmsworth.

You couldn't catch the predator without entering its den.

"Don't rush it. We just need to wait," Thaddeus said.

He tilted his head back, gazing up at the boundless, pitch-black sky. His eyes were dark and calculating. "The KING CLUB hasn't admitted new members in a long time. They need fresh blood, so I suspect we won't have an issue."

The two men reached the bottom of the stairs, where a fleet of Rolls-Royces was already lined up and waiting for them.
