His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode
His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 522
Chapter 522
Matthew tried to put on a brave face, but his legs under the table were trembling uncontrollably
Cedric was visibly shaken by the steely gaze directed his way, his lips sealed shut as if by an invisible force.
Evadne and Thaddeus were utterly stunned, frozen in place as the gravity of the situation set in.
My God, that intense protective instinct!
No one knew the depths of her big brother’s nature better than Evadne. Aloof and detached from worldly desires, in plain English, he was pretty much robotic
Aside from family and his long–time confidant Jason, he never spared a second thought for anyone else.
And yet, here he was, displaying an extraordinary level of concern for Chasel. It was utterly unfathomable.
Just then, Evadne caught Chasel gazing at her big brother with eyes brimming with tenderness, a vision so saccharine that it could weave threads through the air.
Wait a second.
Why was the vibe here so fiirty?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy did these two look like they’re actually hitting it off?
Before Evadne could ponder any further, Cedric spoke up again, his voice dripping with malice. “President Ashbourne, even if we reassess it, some harm’s been done. According to the laws of our country, if the medical examiner confirms the injury is minor, it warrants up to three years of imprisonment. Jason won’t escape jail time
He spat out Jason’s name with such venom that it was hard to imagine they shared the same blood.
In this dog–eat–dog world, he was consumed by bone–deep greed and had twisted into a devil bereft of conscience!
“Matthew
Cassius didn’t even acknowledge Cedric after all, he was just a lapdog of the Chambers family. He needed to speak to the man in charge, “Jason never laid a finger on anyone, although he might’ve wanted to. The guy who beat Byron to a pulp was me, and Ive got the video to prove it.”
With that, he turned to Chasel with a softened tone, “Chasel, play the video, please.”
Hesitantly, Chasel bit his lip and pulled out her phone, playing a video that filled the silent office with Byron’s cries of agony. The footage clearly showed that Cassius delivered punch after punishing punch, transforming the scoundrels face into a butchered
mess
“Would you say this constitutes irrefutable evidence? Cassius asked, a chilling smile creeping across his face like a dashing demon of the night
Chief Roderick and Cedric went pale as ghosts, because their malicious plans were shattered by this revelation.
“Cassius, how could you? Evadne gasped, covering her mouth in shock and leaning into Thaddeus’s embrace.
Thaddeus steadied her trembling shoulder with his warm hand as he watched Cassius with complex emotions. He knew his foresight, from the beginning, Cassius had anticipated complications and had prepared accordingly.
“Chief Roderick, care to release our man now? Cassius asked, his smile still playing at the edges of his lips.
Chief Roderick fumbled for words, then turned to Matthew desperately.
“You’ve arrested an innocent man, of which I’ve already informed Minister Prescott. He’s fuming, and I’d wager your career just hit a dead end”
Chief Roderick blanched, and without another word, he rushed out to release the wrongfully detained.
“Matthew, I know you don’t until you see the whites of their eyes.
I won’t w
‘t waste my breath. Mr. Gordon
“Right here, President Ashbourne Gordon stepped in promptly, standing beside Cassius.
Evadne was momentarily taken aback–since when did Cassius start ordering around his beau’s secretary? But Gordon fit the part so well that one could easily mistake him for the CEO’s right hand of the K Group.
Cassius gave Gordon a nod, and the latter handed a portfolio to Matthew.
Matthew furrowed his brows as he read the documents, his pupils dilating in shock.
“Inside, we have the transfer contract for the Country T resort project and a settlement agreement.”

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCassius’s voice was cold and commanding. If you agree to settle privately, we would consider the Country T project as compensation from the Ashbourne family to your brother. If you refuse, that’s fine too, I’ve had enough of playing the CEO role anyway it might do me some good to take a break with
some simple prison fare, and to give my little sister a chance to take over officially–killing two birds with one stone. But, considering your current predicament, I don’t think you have much of a choice, do you?”
As the offer was too tempting for Matthew, he felt his scant familial loyalty was unable to support his pride.
So he swiftly signed the settlement agreement, grabbed the contract, and left the office without looking back, as if his towering grudges before had never existed. Was this guy a chameleon or what?
Cedric was fuming with rage!
After all his scheming, he had gained nothing–failing to convict Jason and unable to make the Ashbourne family suffer. He had become the laughingstock!
“Cedric, I was right, wasn’t I?”
Evadne’s eyes were sharp, her gaze piercing the repulsive face before her, “Evil never triumphs over good. You could never beat
US
“Damn it. You just got luck!” Cedric muttered through gritted teeth as he turned around to leave.
“Cedric” Chasel called after him with a sly smile.
He stopped in his tracks, his teeth grinding. “What else is there to say?”
“How was the taste of that gourmet dog food the other night? Delicious?
