His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 245
Chapter 245
Cedric had Frederic pull strings to suppress the news, but it still reached Thaddeus at the first instance.
“Why was Glynnis released? Didn’t you keep an eye on Caroline? Did you let Cedric get close to her?” Thaddeus’s stern face was as cold as frost, and he punched the car window in frustration.
“Mr. Thaddeus, Caroline wasn’t the problem. It was Kevin!”
Gordon was so angry his eyes turned green, “Our informant relayed that Cedric, under the guise of a proxy lawyer and with Frederic’s aid, visited Kevin at the detention center in secret. Whatever he said scared Kevin into taking the blame for everything, thus Glynnis was naturally cleared of suspicion!”
“What else could he have done but exploit his weakness, threatening the safety of his family! A top–tier lawyer even resorted to such despicable means!” Thaddeus’s hazel eyes were shrouded in a deep, ominous gloom, like a stormy sea before a tsunami and his fists shook with suppressed rage. “The honorable reputation of Justice is utterly ruined by his eldest son!”
“Mr. Thaddeus, now that Kevin has become the scapegoat, isn’t Caroline’s situation?“.
Before Gordon could finish, his phone rang.
“What’s the matter?”
After listening, Gordon’s face was full of concern. He hurriedly reported to Thaddeus, “Mr. Thaddeus! Bad news! Just now, the police took her away on charges of defamation and perjury!”
It was an expected outcome.
Although Caroline got what she deserved.
Still, Thaddeus’s rage surged, and his eyes blazed red!

Meanwhile, Glynnis, sobbing and wailing, returned to Windermere Estate as if she had been granted a second chance at life. Glynnis and her mother embraced and wept, performing a grand drama of maternal affection in front of Frederic and Hamilton. Years ago, when she was an actress, her performance was mediocre at best. Now, she was an accomplished artist.
“Mom! Dad! You have to avenge me! I was completely set up by Evadne and Edith, those wicked women!”
Seeing her grandfather, Glynnis decided to take the opportunity to trample on Evadne. She ran over and knelt beside Hamilton’s wheelchair, “Grandpa! Evadne wants me dead! She’s so cunning and malicious! Thank God for lawyer Cedric who saved me, or you would never see your good granddaughter again!”
Faced with Glynnis’s accusations, Hamilton was torn..
On one hand, he naturally didn’t believe llana was the person Glynnis described, but on the other hand, according to the police evidence, the person who reported and arrested his own granddaughter was indeed llana.
The old man experienced the pain of favoring one child over another once again.
The last time was more than twenty years ago, during the years when the Abernathy Group was expanding rapidly in Elmsworth.
To quickly seize the market and expand the Abernathy Group, his two sons, Frederic and Felix, were embroiled in scandals involving bribery and irregularities in land bidding. Ultimately, due to Hamilton’s favoritism and Frederic’s poor health, Felix took all the blame, was imprisoned, and sentenced to four years.
Unbelievably, Felix died in prison of a sudden heart attack six months into his sentence!
The death of his younger son brought immeasurable grief to Hamilton, and his wife was so heartbroken and devastated that her health deteriorated rapidly, and they didn’t get to grow old together.
“Grandpa! I’ve always told you Evadne has ulterior motives. She must have had a hidden agenda when she married into
Abernathy family!”
Glynnis cried on her grandfather’s shoulder, “Evadne’s kindness to you might just be to get something from you! Maybe she’s after the Abernathy Group’s shares!”
“Indeed, Dad!”
Elspeth chimed in, demonizing Evadne, “Evadne has been hiding her identity as Emeric’s daughter since the beginning, earning your trust while lurking by your side, and even successfully marrying Thaddeus! Don’t you see this as a conspiracy she meticulously planned? Thankfully Thaddeus wasn’t bewitched and divorced her in time. If Thaddeus fell for her and was completely controlled by her, together with the absolute trust and affection you have for her, aren’t you afraid that she’d infiltrate the core of the Abernathy Group and corrode it from within?”
“Enough, Ilana is not that kind of girl.”
Hamilton waved his hand dismissively, but his mood was gloomy. “Furthermore, I know Emeric. Although he’s a playboy, he’s an honorable gentleman. I don’t believe he would raise a daughter of low character.”
“Dad!”
“Grandpa!”
“Besides, in terms of family background and wealth, the Ashbourne Group doesn’t lose to the Abernathy Group. Did Ms. Evadne marry Thaddeus just to get a small share of the Abernathy Group, thereby ruining her own happiness for life? Humph, it would be more believable if it were a Stirling family girl who did such a tasteless and unambitious thing. Ms. Evadne is the apple of heaven’s eye, she would never, and look down on such low behavior!” Hamilton, biased towards Evadne, and seeing Elspeth stirring the pot, defended his granddaughter even more.
Elspeth was so angry she could bite metal, wishing she could rush up and kick the old man’s wheelchair over!
“Dad, no matter what, Ms. Evadne has been quite malicious towards us, the Abernathy Group!”
Frederic knew that it was his daughter who provoked the situation this time, but of course, he would never admit his failure in raising her in front of Hamilton. So, he grumbled, “Even if there are certain issues within our group, it’s not the place of Evadne, an outsider, to dictate!
She’s been using the Ashbourne Group’s influence to suppress us time and again. Last time it was Elspeth, and now for a minor issue, she wants to throw Glynnis
into prison!
This hard–hitting approach of hers is clearly intent on completely breaking ties with us, the Abernathy Group! Have you ever considered that Evadne, who has returned to the Ashbourne family, has changed? Faced with her own interests and her relationship with you, she would undoubtedly choose the former!”
Hamilton gripped the armrests, his chest heaving.
“Mr. Murray, have llana come see me. Regarding this issue, I want to hear it from her!”
At this moment, outside the Windermere Estate.
Thaddeus’s Maybach was parked in front of the gate, and Gordon opened the car door for him.
As the man stepped out of the car with a stern and handsome face, a black Maserati slowly drove up and parked next to it.
The next second, the elegantly suited Cedric appeared in his icy gaze.
“What a coincidence, Mr. Thaddeus.”
“Hmm, you’ve gone out of your way to come here, Mr. Cedric. Does Mr. Frederic still have some d*rty laundry for you to clean up?” Thaddeus sneered, his thin l*ps as sharp as a knife.
Cedric smiled nonchalantly. “Mr. Frederic hired me to be Glynnis’s lawyer, so it’s my duty to see it through. This is my professional integrity as a lawyer and I am committed. Your comments, Mr. Thaddeus, only show that you don’t understand the legal profession. That’s fine, to each their own.”
Thaddeus’s eyes were frosty, his pale l*ps tightened, and he approached Cedric with a formidable aura.
Cedric frowned, instinctively stepping back half a step.
In fact, the moment he stepped back, he had already lost, at least in front of this man who looked like a god yet was as intimidating as a tiger, he had already lost, the battle.
“The legal world is a deep and murky one. There are plenty of lawyers who fight for justice for the poor, but then there are also those, like you, who serve the rich and powerful, put interests first, and stop at nothing to achieve their goals.“.
Cedric’s smile froze a bit.
“But that’s your personal pursuit, and I have no right to interfere. However, I do have a warning for you.”
Thaddeus’s black eyes were too sharp, making people fearful, “You can be ruthless, full of tricks. But Evadne is very important to me. Stop scheming against her, or even make the slightest move that is detrimental to her. Otherwise, you won’t get away with it!”
