His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode

Chapter 451

Evadne felt a surge of fury rise within her, her fists clenched tight.

That snake–tongued weasel! Blatantly twisting the truth. He was the one with murder in his heart, and now he was trying to sling mud at Thaddeus, stirring up trouble and driving a wedge between Thaddeus and the Fairhaven Group, all to ensure Barry’s unwavering support.

“Thaddeus, this is a matter of honor for both our esteemed families. You mustn’t take it lightly!”

Elspeth assumed her role with a commanding presence, feigning concern for Thaddeus while seemingly looking out for the greater good, “We know that since the divorce, you’ve felt indebted to Ms. Ashbourne. It’s only natural that you’d want to champion her cause after her mishap.”

“Champion her cause? Elspeth, what on Earth are you implying?”

Gary’s patience was wearing thin, his eyebrows knitted in disapproval, “When did the Fairhaven family ever offend Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy to deserve his

wrath? Are we to be treated as pushovers, as mere punching bags? Do not test our limits!”

His words ignited a firestorm among the Fairhaven Group; their gazes upon Thaddeus were seething with animosity.

“Oh Gary, it’s a misunderstanding. What beef could Thaddeus possibly have with the Fairhaven Group? He and Jareth go way back, allies through thick and thin.”

Elspeth’s l*ps curled into a mocking smirk, her cold gaze fiickering towards Evadne, “The one with a bone to pick is Ms. Ashbourne. The whole of Elmsworth know about the bad blood between her and Ms. Edith Fairhaven – like oil and water, they are. Now that Evadne’s had an accident and the Fairhaven Group nearly clinched the competition, it’s clear she’s not over it. Thaddeus wanting to seek justice for Ms. Ashbourne isn’t all that surprising.”

The crowd was stunned!

It was no secret that Evadne and Edith didn’t see eye to eye. But to fabricate such a tale to smear the Fairhaven Group’s name, was this really happening? Emeric’s face was a canvas of frost, his l*ps pressed into a thin line. Such vile and despicable antics were beneath him. To even spare another glance at this woman would be an insult to his own dignity!

Just as Thaddeus and Cassius were ready to speak up, someone else beat them to the punch.

“Elspeth, I never thought that after all these years, you’d still be so unrepentant.”

Myra, usually timid, stood her ground, her eyes fiashing defiance, “Twenty years ago, you were a master of deceit, and it seems you haven’t changed one bit. You’re still as vile and venomous, unfit for polite society! But you’ve picked the wrong target this time. Evadne, with her grace and benevolence, has done countless good deeds, helped so many. Her reputation in Skyrim is unassailable, not something you can tarnish with a few twisted words! I’m not the same Myra you used to trample on. You can use your venomous tongue to backstab and humiliate me, but don’t think for a second you can hurt Evadne!”

Everyone was dumbfounded!

__Myra, true to her appearance, was gentle as a stream, and this was probably the harshest she had ever spoken. She stood up not for herself, but because

she couldn’t bear to see Evadne bullied by that wicked woman.

“Myra.” Evadne’s voice was choked with emotion, fighting back tears.

“Ha, Mrs. Myra Ashbourne, when have I ever wronged you? Be careful not to spit venom that isn’t there.”

Elspeth shrugged, feigning innocence, but her words were barbed, “Everything I’ve said is the truth. Back then, it was you who couldn’t keep on the straight and narrow, indulging in forbidden substances that caused the inability to control urine and led to your downfall. No one forced you. Who wronged you? If you were truly innocent back then, why didn’t you clear your name instead of fading into obscurity? Now you feel emboldened, don’t you? Having become the noble Mrs. Ashbourne and bearing a daughter for Chairman Emeric, you think times have changed. You’re using this as an excuse to seek revenge, aren’t you? Hahaha, you say I’m unfit for the high table? Are you any better as a mistress?”

A

The room fell silent, the air thick with tension. Even the Fairhaven family were taken aback by Elspeth’s audacity; her words were far too brazen!

Glynnis, seeing Frederic’s face darken, his l*ps twitching with anger, felt a cold sweat break out. Even she thought Elspeth had gone too far, her demeanor

unnervingly agitated. Especially those last remarks – they were practically an open insult!

Myra was shaking with fury, her whole b*dy trembling with rage. At that moment, Emeric wrapped an arm around her shoulder, his warm palm resting on her, his fingers gently exerting pressure.

Though silent, Myra could feel the strong beats of his heart through his chest, her eyes brimming with tears. With him by her side, she had a safe harbor, a shoulder to lean on.

“Mr. Frederic Abernathy, as the head of your household, can you or can you not control your foul–mouthed wretch?” Emeric’s voice cut through the silence, his gaze sharp enough to pierce Elspeth’s soul.

The room gasped. Foul–mouthed wretch?!

If you couldn’t see his face, you’d never believe these words came from Emeric, the corporate titan! Elspeth was livid, her face redder than a beetroot! Yet, as she caught Emeric’s piercing stare, she visibly recoiled.

Thaddeus was completely taken aback, his handsome face unsure of what expression to wear, “Chairman Ashbourne really speaks his mind. Evadne, I see now who you take after.”

“He only shocks you outsiders. He’s always been like this, even more so at home. You’ll get used to it,” Evadne hadn’t finished speaking when her phone buzzed insistently.

She glanced down with a fiutter of her long lashes; suddenly, her demeanor shifted as she turned to Elspeth, her l*ps forming a frosty smile.

“Elspeth, this time you’ve really crossed the line. Apologize to Mrs. Myra Ashbourne this instant,” Frederick commanded with a deep breath, his voice icy. Elspeth was seething, her teeth grinding in frustration. She had underestimated the protection Emeric afforded Myra, a protection she’d never felt from

Frederick!

She dared to challenge Myra, but wouldn’t dare cross Emeric, so she reluctantly muttered through clenched teeth, “I was out of line earlier. I apologize, Mrs. Myra Ashbourne.”

“Is that it? Just like that?” Emeric’s gaze was intimidating, fiery, “Do you think my family is to be trified with? Do you think my woman can be bullied? Also, I heard the vile things you said about my daughter. You think I’m deaf? You think you can fricking dance on my last nerve and a simple sorry will do? The world doesn’t work like that.”

“Chairman Ashbourne, what do you want then?” Frederick’s patience was wearing thin. He wasn’t happy with Elspeth causing trouble, but Emeric’s attitude towards their Abernathy Group was infuriating.

“The wretch slaps herself twice, once for insulting my woman, once for insulting my daughter. I’ll let it slide for Mr. Hamilton Abernathy’s sake,” Emeric’s demand was nonchalant but hit like a bombshell.

The room erupted! Had Mrs. Abernathy slap herself? Might as well ask someone to take a dump on her head!

“You’ve gone so far! I’m a tycoon’s wife! I’m Mr. Frederick Abernathy’s wife! How dare you make such a demand?!” Elspeth shrieked, stomping her foot in

a tantrum.

Frederick’s expression darkened considerably, but he didn’t agree to Emeric’s demand. Yet Emeric was out of patience, barking, “Dylan!”

“At your service, Mr. Ashbourne!”

Who was Dylan? Emeric’s right–hand man, his enforcer! In a fiash, Dylan was in front of Elspeth. Before anyone could react, he swung his arm and delivered two sharp slaps across her face!

“Ah!” Elspeth screamed in pain, her cheeks fiaming red and swelling instantly.

Dylan, once a black belt in karate, ensured the woman got what she deserved. As Elspeth was struck, no one moved to intervene, not even the Fairhaverí family, who had spoken for her earlier.

Nob*dy dared to provoke Emeric further. Marilla was frozen in shock, held tightly by Jareth. Glynnis, seeing her mother humiliated, didn’t dare make a sound, shrinking back like a turtle in its shell.

Bullies and cowards, the mother and daughter were cut from the same cloth.

“Elspeth, I apologize, but this is the consequence of your actions. Let this be a lesson to speak and act with more caution in the future,” with that, Dylan returned to Emeric’s side, expressionless.

Elspeth wanted to lash out, but seeing she was alone against the tide, she played the victim, crying pitifully as she turned to Frederick, “Frederic! I’m your wife. How can you stand by and watch your woman be treated like this? In front of our kids, I can’t face anyone anymore. Frederic!”

She knew that men had their pride. Even if Frederick didn’t care for her, he would care for his own reputation. Surely he wouldn’t stand by idly.

T

As expected, Frederick helped the staggering Elspeth to her feet, his eyes blazing with fury at Emeric. Just as he was about to speak, the massive screen in the center of the opposite grandstand lit up, capturing everyone’s attention.

“Look! What on earth is that?!”

“It seems to be a surveillance video, but much clearer than the usual ones.”

“Wait a minute, doesn’t the woman in the video look familiar?”

“Damn! Isn’t that Elspeth?!”

The video laid bare every movement and every word spoken by Elspeth. It was crystal clear for all to see.

Elspeth was seen injecting something into her veins. Seconds later, she started laughing uncontrollably and dancing wildly. She writhed on the ground shamelessly, moaning inappropriately. Then, she began touching herself, lifting her clothes for all to see!

Soon enough, she appeared completely n*ked on the big screen, her hand moving in a way that left nothing to the imagination.

“What the heck! What is Elspeth doing?! My eyes!”

“It’s clear as day now; that’s the reaction to drugs! She must’ve injected herself with narcotics!”

“Record this, take pictures! It’ll be gone soon!”

“An adult film for thousands to see, starring the Abernathy Group’s chairman’s wife, uncensored. I’ve got to enjoy, save it for posterity!”

Thunder roared as if the sky itself was outraged, striking down on Elspeth, leaving her metaphorically in ruins. Her face ashen, her gaze vacant, she stared dumbfounded at her n*ked self on the screen, shaking her head in disbelief. When she opened her eyes again, the nightmare hadn’t vanished.

It wasn’t an illusion; it was the apocalypse.

“What’s happening? How could this?” Frederick’s pupils trembled violently, his face turning a shade of red, his veins throbbing as if they would explode.

He desperately didn’t want to admit that the repulsive woman on the screen was Elspeth, the woman he’d shared his bed with for over two decades. But he couldn’t lie to himself. It was undoubtedly Elspeth.

The Ashbourne family, alongside the Fairhaven family and the Chambers family, including William and his son, were all glued to the big screen, utterly

transfixed by the shocking images unfolding before them. No one remembered to breathe, let alone react.

Jareth, sensing what was about to happen, immediately pulled Marilla’s head to his chest, and before she could make sense of the situation, he scooped her up and bolted away at top speed.

“Ha–ha, Damn, that’s a rush.” Edith’s eyes were dancing with mischief and excitement. She nudged Glynnis, who was completely petrified, her voice dripping with schadenfreude, “I mean, how do you let loose like that behind closed doors? Wild child indeed. Takes after your mom, doesn’t it?“. Glynnis fully aware that she was being humiliated, was too frightened to utter a word. Cold sweat streamed down her pale cheeks as she trembled

violently.

Thaddeus’s eyes snapped open, a mix of shock and delight coursing through him, his b*dy radiating heat. His chest heaved with fiery passion, his blood boiling with excitement.

He lifted his muscular arm to draw the woman beside him close, his large hand caressing her slender waist. His deep eyes overfiowed with warmth as he huskily asked, “Why didn’t you tell me?”

Evadne tilted her lovely chin up to meet his gaze, her eyes fiery and unmatched in beauty, “Surprise. What’s the fun in telling? Do you like it?”

His breath was warm on her delicate nose, and in the next second, his hand gripped the back of her neck, sealing her tender l*ps with a searing k*ss. Evadne could feel his breath grow heavy, their tongues trembling gently in their entwined dance.

Her nimble hands playfully pulled at his tie, tugging it downwards with a teasing, seductive gesture. She reveled in the instinctual response from the man she adored.

Everyone else was captivated by Elspeth’s dramatic scene, providing this couple with a moment of passionate entanglement.

Eventually, they separated slowly, Thaddeus’s l*ps stained with the l*pstick of his lady, as red as the tender affection in his eyes.

“You’re bad, but I love it.”

The racetrack buzzed anew with the arrival of this main event! The Chambers family, as hosts and owners of the racetrack, surprisingly didn’t shut off the screen but allowed the situation to escalate.

In the end, Elspeth was done for. Might as well use her bones for kindling to stoke the fiames of publicity for the Chambers family’s racetrack! Elspeth could never have dreamed that the bloody deeds she had committed all her life would one day leave her nothing but infamy.

“Frederic. Frederic, let me explain! Please, let me explain!” She stammered, desperately clutching at Frederic’s arm, her words tumbling out incoherently, “I was set up, drugged! That’s why I acted that way! I’m the victim! You have to believe me, Frederic!”

Suddenly, the sound of swift decisive footsteps approached. Several officers in uniform stepped into the scene, heading straight for Elspeth.

“Elspeth, you are under arrest for drug trafficking, possession, and use.”

Click – the cold handcuffs snapped around Elspeth’s wrists, their chill striking terror in her heart.

“I didn’t. No!”

Then, to her horror, she felt a warm trickle down her thigh – a stream fiowing freely. Under the watchful eyes of all, she had lost control of urine.
