His Ex wife is a billionaire (Evadne and Thaddeus) Novel Full Episode
His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 252

Chapter 252 

Ada’s wedding came to a close amongst a chorus of praises. 

Evadne had truly hit the jackpot this time, bringing fame and fortune, reviving the K Orld Hotel from the brink of extinction in less than a year and even propelling it to new heights. 

In half a year, she had impressively completed the tasks assigned by Emeric, even exceeding his expectations. 

The first order of business, of course, was to return to Skyrim and claim her reward from Emeric! 

Chuckles all around! 

That night, Evadne went to pick up her younger sister, Nydia, from school, and they drove off towards Skyrim in a top–notch emerald–green Rolls–Royce. 

The sisters joked and laughed in the car, their intimacy and joy were palpable. 

“Evadne, I can’t believe that you’re actually the top jewelry designer, Alea!” Nydia exclaimed with a blush, clapping her hands in surprise. 

“Hold your horses! I know what you’re about to say. You’re about to wax lyrical about your admiration for me, aren’t you?” 

Evadne fl*pped her raven locks, lifting her nose slightly, “I’ve heard enough flattery, Nydia. If you want to ask me for some jewelry to play with, just say it.” “That’s not possible!” 

Nydia shook her head vehemently, cheeks turning rosy, “You’re Alea, only international celebrities get to wear your designs. You could give Daryl a piece of jewelry. I heard from Mom and Dad that Daryl’s husband is about to become the President of Helgen. The First Lady wearing your jewelry wouldn’t be a disgrace, would it?” 

“To outsiders, Alea is a celebrity, but to our family, it’s just a name.” 

Evadne raised an eyebrow in feigned arrogance, pulling her little sister into a side hug, “When you go back to school, you can boast all you want. Your sister is Alea. Once they know it, they’ll be lining up to butter you up.” 

Nydia thought about the rumors about her at school, and how Bernard had been subtly challenging her. 

Unable to help it, she was about to cry, but she quickly put on a brave face, biting her l*p tightly. 

“Speaking of which, I really miss Daryl.” 

Evadne and Nydia huddled together, their eyes gleaming, “I wonder if Daryl’s husband is treating her well. If he dares to mistreat her, I’ll shred him into spicy shredded pork!” 

“I guess you won’t need to, Evadne. Cassius, Arnold, Bennett, Elvis, Aaron and Dad, none of them would let him off the hook.” Nydia joked. 

Yeah, that sounded about right. 

Daryl’s husband probably wouldn’t be foolish enough to try his luck with the brutal punishments of the Ashbourne family. 

“Huh? Evadne, why isn’t Jason with you?” Nydia had been looking for Jason ever since she got in the car. She finally mustered up the courage to ask. 

“Oh, he’s been really tired lately, so I gave him a break.” Evadne replied nonchalantly, giving nothing away. 

Their car smoothly entered the gates of Silverlake Harbor. 

As the sisters stepped out of the car, they ran into Mr. and Mrs. Dempsey with their three sons, who were also walking towards them. 

Evadne hadn’t known that Emeric had invited the Dempsey family over for dinner that night. She was slightly surprised, but quickly composed herself. 

Upon seeing Evadne, Cedric’s eyes turned green with envy, as if he were about to crow like a rooster. 

“Miss Evadne. Jason.called out to her with a dry voice. 

He took a small step forward, but suddenly remembered what Evadne had told him the other day. His longing to get closer to her shrank back, and he retreated. Evadne glanced at Jason nonchalantly. 

With his tall figure, drooping shoulders, and pale l*ps, he looked like a lost puppy, pitifully adorable. 

But she couldn’t give him hope. 

Giving him hope would truly ruin him. 

“Ms. Evadne! It’s been a while!” Dave greeted her politely with his wife. 

“Mr. Dempsey, there’s no need for formalities. Just call me Evadne as you used to.” Evadne replied warmly. 

“Times have changed. You’re now part of the company’s management and you’re also Jason’s boss. Things are different now.” 

Dave was well aware of the fame and potential Evadne had, and he knew he had to tread carefully. 

Cedric scoffed, finding his father’s groveling attitude embarrassing. 

Did the Dempseys really have to bow down to the Ashbournes forever? 

Evadne let it go when she saw Dave insisting on being formal. 

Mrs. Dempsey subtly examined the Ashbourne sisters. 

Evadne had grown into a stunning beauty. When she was a child, she was a porcelain doll, but now she has transformed into an exquisite fair lady. Anyone who saw her would be instantly captivated 

No wonder her Jason was so love–struck and worn out. It pained Mrs. Dempsey to see him this way. 

Moreover, the gap in status between the Dempseys and the Ashbournes was too large. Although the Dempseys were a family of scholars, they were worlds apart from the Ashbournes, the wealthiest family in Skyrim 

Her son was trying to reach for the stars. 

Then, Mrs. Dempsey’s gaze landed on the quiet and graceful Nydia. 

“Mrs Dempsey, it’s nice to see you!” Nydia quickly curtsied, her heart racing when she saw her crush’s mother, her cheeks turning a rosy red. 

“Nice to see you too, Ms Nydia” 

If her son was truly desperate to marry into the Ashbournes, then Nydia could be a viable alternative. 

She was polite, gentle, and seemed to be a good match for her youngest son. The only drawback was that her mother was not the legal wife of Emeric 

Although Nydia was Emeric’s daughter, her mother was never lawfully wed to Chairman Emeric Plus, she was her mother’s only daughter. This, understandably, put her in a less favorable position within the Ashbourne family 

When the prospect of Jason marrying Nydia was mentioned, Myra felt that her son would be short–changed. 

Nydia fluttered her eyelashes and sneaked a peek at her beloved. 

But a single glance was enough to make her heart flutter like a frightened deer, causing a dull ache in her chest. 

Jason only ever had eyes for Evadne. 

She knew his passionate love–filled gaze better than anyone else. 

Because she had been looking at him with the same eyes for the past seven years. 

The Silverlake Harbor was bustling that night, but Casslus was tied up with work and couldn’t make it back in time.. 

However, both Arnold and Aaron managed to show up for the feast as if they had planned it. 

The atmosphere was initially good. Emeric and Dave were of the same age and old friends, so they enjoyed each other’s company. 

Mrs. Dempsey and the three Ashbourne ladies also had a lively chat. 

But something was off between the youngsters. 

With the presence of the police, the prosecutor, the Judge, the lawyer, and Evadne the plaintiff, the north side of the dining table felt like a mini courtroom. 

“Mr. Cedric, I heard your law firm in Elmsworth is doing quite well.” 

Arnold smirked sarcastically, swirling his wine glass. “It seems that all the big cases we’ve had in Elmsworth these past couple of years have had you as the lawyer for the defense.” “As a lawyer, it’s my duty.” 

Cedric retorted with a nonchalant smile. “If a client comes to me and trusts me, of course, I will do my best to win the case.” 

“That’s quite interesting.” 

Aaron crossed his legs, sizing up Cedric like a suspect. “It seems that the ones who engage you are either wealthy or influential. Your client base seems quite exclusive.” 

“That’s not necessarily the case. Although I’m the head of the firm, I’m not the only one running it. I have two shareholders to share the profits with, and dozens of lawyers to pay. I, too, am just a man trying to make a living in this world.” Cedric sighed, feigning distress. 

Gosh! 

Arnold, Aaron, and Evadne nearly choked on their food upon hearing these sanctimonious words! 

How could Cedric and Jason, both sons of the esteemed Judge, be so different! 

“Cedric, you’re now a top lawyer in Elmsworth, well–known nationwide.” 

The usually silent Jason finally spoke up with a cold smile, “The lowest fee you’ve ever charged for a case this year was two hundred thousand dollars, and the highest was 1.5 million dollars. This is just your personal income, not including the cuts you get from your associates.” 

The dining room fell silent. 

Emeric and Dave stopped their conversation, turning their attention to the younger generation. 

“I believe my personal income and that of my law firm are private matters, not suitable for discussion at a gathering like this.” Cedric forced a smile, wincing at the pain from the wound on his cheek that he had covered up with foundation.” 

“I’m bringing this up to make a point, that you are not lacking in money. You’ve even amassed a fortune that the average person couldn’t spend in a lifetime.” 

Jason’s eyes flashed as he chuckled, “So I don’t understand, apart from money, what made you take on the Abernathy Group’s case knowing that they are Ms. Evadne’s enemies? 

What? 

Holy cow! 

Was Jason the betrayer of kin tonight? 

He just ripped off Cedric’s mask of hypocrisy–in front of everyone. Were these brothers really going to become enemies? 

Evadne hadn’t given Jason a single glance all night. 

But at that moment, her expression icy, she suddenly looked up at him, her gaze as calm and piercing as a winter’s night. 

She knew that Jason was doing this for her. 

But she neither wanted him to do it, nor needed him to. 

“Jason! You can’t vent your frustrations here. Save it for when we get home!” Ivan pulled at him under the table, sweating from tension. 

But Jason, his handsome face stern, showed no sign of letting Cedric off the hook. 

Cedric, unable to hide his discomfort, looked as if he had been struck by a severe illness. 

“Jason! Stop spouting nonsense!” 

Dave reprimanded Jason in a stern voice, then turned to Emeric with an apologetic smile. “I apologize, Chairman Emeric. I’ve clearly failed to discipline my son properly. I’m embarrassed to have made a spectacle in front of you.” 

“Not at all.” 

Emeric remained calm and composed, chuckling lightly. “Jason has been like a son to me since he was a child. He worked under my eldest son, Cassius, and later assisted Evadne. He’s a capable young man with a strong moral compass. I’ve always thought highly of Jason, treating him as if he were my own son. I know what kind of person he is, so I’m not offended in the slightest.”  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A son? 

With those words, Jason’s status skyrocketed instantly, while delivering a heavy blow to Cedric!
