His Ex wife is a billionaire Chapter 464

Chapter 464 

“Hey? Emeric, where’s Evadne? Jeff craned his n*eck, peering outside with persistent curiosity. 

“She won’t be joining us tonight, Jell. Evadne is injured and needs her rest. I’ve told her to stay 

wy put and recover, Emeric replied with a nonchalant shrug. 

“Emeric, you’re being unfair, man. You promised to bring Evadne over this time, Besides, we’re practically family now, not just guests!” Jeff rambled on though confusion gnawed at him inside. 

Emeric settled into his seat, “If you really care about Evadne, you should let her heal properly. No need to drag her around.” 

It was just before that horse race that he’d met with Emeric in private. 

They had hit it off, and Emeric seemed quite taken with his son, assuring him that he would support the union between Evadne and Avery, welcoming Evadine into the Chambers family as a daughter–in–law. 

He had also pondered Byron’s marriage prospects, his beloved second son, second only to his eldest in his affections. 

He was angling for a double celebration, hoping to propose to Emeric and Myra’s daughter Nydia on behalf of Byron. 

Originally, he didn’t think Nydia was a match for Byron given her modest background.  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

But now that Byron was down to one good leg, he wasn’t in a position to be choosy, and Ms. Nydia suddenly seemed much more appealing. That was why he’d eagerly brought Byron along tonight, to meet with Nydia, 

But what he couldn’t fathom was why Emeric, who had virtually handpicked Avery as his son–in–law, had come without Evadne and with a noticeably 

cooler demeanor 

Avery, his interest thoroughly extinguished, downed a glass of bourbon in frustration 

Tonight, the unsuspecting Nydia was a vision in an elegant white lace dress that highlighted her flawless porcelain skip, Her dancer’s physique was lithe and graceful as a swan, and her exposed legs were as perfect as a sculpted masterpiece 

Usually, Evadine’s stunning beauty and presence overshadowed Nydia 

But now, it was clear that both sisters were beauties in their own right, reminiscent of the classic novel’s contrasting heroines, like the fair and virtuous Amy and the fiery and passionate Jo. 

Byron, having spent too much time in the hospital and away from female company aside from nurses couldn’t take his eyes off Nydia, 

Avery, reading his less–than–pure thoughts with a glance, couldn’t help but suppress a cold, mocking smile. 

The feast was served, and Emeric barely touched his food, seemingly without an appetite, 

Nydia sat next to Byron, who was diligently attentive, serving her food and pouring her drinks, but she only responded with polite reserve, leaving the food he offered untouched. 

In Nydia’s heart and eyes, there was only room for her dear Jason. Other men barely warranted a second glande 

“Emeric, now that the race’s over, about the arrangement we discussed.” 

Before Jeff could finish, Emeric finally spoke up with a grave tone, Jeff, I know how much you adore Evadne. You’ve practically raised her alongside your daughter. And I’m aware of Avery’s esteem for her, and he’s shown nothing but respect and diligence, qualities I admire in a young man. But feelings can’t be forced. Evadne has given her heart to another, and you know very well who that is.” 

His words caught the Chambers men completely off guard. 

Avery’s eyes flashed with anger, a dangerous red mingling with the fury, his handsome features tight as if carved from ice. Even without a word, his presence was chilling. 

Byron couldn’t help but snicker at the sight of his brother’s displeasure 

He thought “Avery, dreaming of marrying into the Ashbourne family and becoming Emeric’s favored son–in–law to leverage control over the Chambers Group against your brother? Dream on, you muri!” 

“Emeric, what are you implying? Didn’t we have an agreement?” 

Jeff’s brows knitted together as his temper flared, and for the first time, he turned red–faced with Emeric. “We’ve been friends for over thirty years. How do you think I’ve treated you? Better than your own brothers! When you were targeted for assassination, with a spiper lurking on a rooftop, I stood in front of you without knowing where the shooter was, ready to take a bullet for you!” 

Emeric listened’s lently, the harrowing memory of that life–or–death shootout resurfacing. 

Er were 

young then, kindred spirits with a brotherly bond. Jeff had risked his life for him, a testament to their genuine 

He truly was grateful to Jelf. They w friendship 

And it was that same event that had led to his fortuitous rescue by the daughter of S–Star Group’s magnate, Aviana, leading to their marriage. 

Indeed, Jeff I will never forget your kindness in this lifetime, Emeric’s voice was hoarse with emotion 

seems you’ve forgotten everything! Otherwise, you wouldn’t go back on your word and make a fool out of mer 

Jeff’s anger escalated as he grabbed a crystal glass from the table and hurled it to the floor, his face crimson with rage. 

Nydia and Myra were shocked. 

They had never seen Jeff so furious with Emeric, who usually joked around with him. It was evident how much he prized this potential alliance, enough to risk’o fallout with a brother of over three decades. 

“Dad Mind your health, don’t get too worked up” 

Both Chambers sons stood up in alarm, but Byron’s injured leg delayed him, and Avery reached their father first. 

Avery gently soothed Jeff’s heaving back, placating him with care, Dad, please calm down. You and Mr. Emeric have been close for decades, a bond forged through trials and tribulations that even us younger folks envy Please, don’t let my marriage prospects come between you. If that happened, I’d be the villain of the century living with quilt forever.” 

“Avery, don’t blame yourself. This situation has nothing to do with you.” 

Jeff sighed heavily slapping his thigh in frustration. “I’m a failure as a father. After all these years, I still couldn’t outdo the Abernathy Group and become Elmsworth’s top dog. Mr. Emeric, I understand why you look down on our family’s standing. You want to ally with the mighty Abernathys, and I get it.” *Dad, don’t say that. It’s not your fault. It’s mine.” 

Avery forced a wry smile, his eyes brimming with pain. It’s because couldn’t win Evadne’s love. It’s just that Evadne and 1 are star–crossed. Mr. Emeric is right. You can’t force love. If that’s the case, then I wish Evadne and Mr. Thaddeus a lifetime of happiness together.” 

The phrase “lifetime‘ rang in his cars, sounding bitterly harsh 

“So be it I understand now.” 

Jeff rose angrily, his gaze at Emeric filled with utter disappointment. “Chairman Emeric, since you have made your choice, I have nothing left to say. All good things come to an end. Chairman Emeric, from now on, we are rivals. We’ll see what the future holds! Byron, Avery let’s go!” 

“Jeff, wait.” 

Emeric’s brow furrowed deeply as he stood up slowly and approached him. The always favored Avery as a son-in–law for the Ashbourne family. I hoped our families could be united through marriage. But at the last horse racing event, as you saw the whole nation witnessed Evadine and Thaddeus’s relationship. It’s practically public now. Talking marriage at this point would tamish both the Chambers Group and your sons reputation” 

Jeff fell into deep thought. 

Avery adjusted his glasses, costing a cold, swift glance at Emeric. 

What was this sly old man up to? Why did it feel like he was secretly trying to set up Evadne with Thaddeus? 

Why this? 

“Nydia” Emeric suddenly called out to Nydia 

“Yes, Daddy?” Nydia snapped out of her daze and obediently walked over to her father 

Emeric’s piercing gaze settled on her and then shifted back to Jeff. “Nydia is my youngest daughter, the apple of our eye. We’ve been searching for the right match for her. Initially, I hoped she would marry into the Chambers family, but you were set on Evadne and I had to make other arrangements for Nydia. Now that Evadne is dating Mr. Thaddeus, let’s sit down and discuss a potential marriage between your son and my little girl. After she graduates, Nydia could become your daughter–in–law. What do you think?” 

-The room seemed to explode with that suggestion, like lightning striking Nydia’s head! 

She trembled, her crystal–like eyes shrinking, her face draining of color. “Daddy?” 

Suddenly, Myra grabbed her arm, her fingers digging into Nydia’s flesh, 

Nydia looked ansiously at her mother, who was shaking her head. 

In the end, she could only lower her head in resignation, tears swirling in her eyes. 

Emeric’s proposal to align Nydia with the Chambers family mended the fracturing relationship between the two familes. 

But Avery, andous and furious, excused himself and stormed onto the dark, empty balcony to pace. 

He breathed heavily, red–eyed and furious, his fists pounding against the railing, swollen and red, yet unable to quell the rage in his heart. 

What to do, what to do? 

It wasn’t Evadne but Nydia as a consolation. 

Jeff’s true desire was to marry into a powerful alliance that would dominate Elmsworth, even if it wasn’t 

But now, Byron was crippled. 

Emeric would never marry his daughter to a disabled man, so the burden of the alliance would inevitably fall on Avery, 

He couldn’t possibly many anyone but Evadine! 

“Avery, all your schemes and yet you’ve played yourself. Isn’t this what they call ‘all dressed up and nowhere to go?” 

Byron hobbled over, his grin stretching ear to ear upon seeing Avery trapped by his own plays. “You were so set on marrying Evadine, pulling out all the stops, and still you ended up being defeated by Thaddeus. Ms. Evadne and Thaddeus have both been married before. She’d rather go back to him than be with you blow pathetic is that, huh?” 

Avery’s face turned a sickly shade of pale with rage, his fingers clawing at the railing. 

Suddenly, when Avery recalled Byron’s fawning over Nydia, an idea sparked in his mind, and he smirked. “Byron, how can you mock me? Better worry about yourself. You’re crippled now, can’t manage much of the family business, and Dad’s losing patience with you. Your only chance to turn things around is a good marriage alliance. But even the Ashbourne’s least desirable daughter, Chairman Emeric wouldn’t want to marry her off to you. Of course, if I were Chairman Emeric, I wouldn’t want my daughter marrying a cripple either.” 

“Who are you calling a cripple? Say that again!” Byron bellowed, his eyes bloodshot with fury. 

Even if I can’t marry the Ashbourne heiress, securing a union with Ms. Nydia of the Ashbourne family isn’t such a bad deal. Either way I’ll be Chairman Emenc’s son–in–law It’s the same either way. But you you better think hard. Once I marry into the Ashbourne family, I’ll naturally earn Dad’s favor. Then what place will there be for you in the Chambers Group?” 

With that Avery walked off with a proud smile, striding past Byron, 

“Avery! Don’t get too ahead of yourself!” 

Byron slammed his cane on the ground in a fit of rage. “Whet 

rage. “Whether or not this marriage happens isn’t up to you to decide!” 

As Avery left the balcony, a sly grin curled his l*ps. He knew Byron had taken the bait. 

“This billion–dollar son–in–law position, I’m practically giving it away.”
