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

Chapter 694

Under Thaddeus’ orchestration, the subordinate from the Fairhaven group proactively turned himself in, confessed on the spot and provided the full account of the criminal details, which matched the known facts exactly.

The boy’s father wanted to delve deeper, but with the evidence conclusive and the police having already closed the case, they only had limited capabilities and ultimately had no choice but to accept it

Gary, with his nose for news, had already learned the ins and outs of the full story.

When he found out that the kidnapped girl was the young miss from the Abernathy family, he immediately connected the matter

to Jareth

It was as if the name “Jareth” was plastered all over it!

“What? The guy who confessed got his background cleaned? Gary’s eyes bulged in disbelief.

police could

“Yes, clean as a whistle. That subordinate doesn’t have a single connection to the Fairhaven group, not even n the p trace anything,” the secretary reported, sweating bullets.

“That brat Jareth’s becoming more cunning!”

Gary took a strong puff of his cigar, choking on the smoke and nearly suffocating himself

“This matter might very well be Thaddeus‘ doing. That man is meticulous in his work. He and Jareth are thick as thieves, what

wouldn’t he do for Jareth?”

“Damn it!”

Gary slammed his hand on the desk. “I thought we could use this incident to cut off his path to the presidency, but now missed the boat!

Am I just supposed to sit back and let that brat strut around above me? Then what was the point of taking out his old man in the first place?”

“Shh-! Keep your voice down!” The secretary was pale with fright.

“Hmph, what’s there to fear? It’s been so many years, the machine was destroyed, the witnesses are dead; there is no evidence.”

A sinister gleam fiashed in Gary’s eyes. “You think Jareth doesn’t suspect me? He’s been suspicious for a while now, but so what?

I just love seeing his look, hating me to the core yet unable to do a thing about it! Let him be tormented for life!”

Just then, his phone rang.

Seeing it was Edith Fairhaven calling, he dismissed his secretary and answered with a scowl.

“My dear niece, you still remember your old uncle, huh?“/

“How could I forget about you, Uncle?” Edith’s voice was sickly sweet.

“Heh, my dear niece, always knows how to say the nicest things.”

Gary gritted his teeth. “Speaking of which, why haven’t you made a move yet? It looks like your heart’s still with your big brother. Him becoming president must make you and your mother proud, right?”

“Uncle, I’m going to say something you won’t like to hear.”

Edith’s voice was teasing. Truth be told, you never stood a chance against Jareth for the presidency. From the beginning. Grandpa never even considered you to be the successor, and you know it better than anyone, don’t you?

You want me to help you, but with the odds against you, how can I help? If I had the power, wouldn’t I just go for the presidency myself?”

Gary felt humiliated by her sass and his face turned beet red with embarrassment. “But didn’t you say you had a way to make Jareth suffer?

“Don’t rush, it’s coming soon.”

Edith’s tone grew colder Tonight, I’m going to see Grandpa

Jareth wants to be the president and marry his beloved? He can’t have his cake and eat it too? There is no such perfect thing in this world!”

As evening fell upon the Fairhaven family

10 37

Barry summoned both Jareth and Gary for a three–person meeting in the study.

After discussing the corporation and various projects, Jareth stood up and placed a bright red invitation in front of Barry. “This is?”

“The invitation to the engagement ceremony. with Marilla.”

Jareth’s eyes were alight with hope as he spoke earnestly. “I want to give Marilla a grand wedding of the century, but we need a professional team for that and start planning now. It will take some time.

So, before that, I want to have the engagement ceremony first and make it official. This would not only solidify our commitment but also show the Fairhaven group’s high regard for the Abernathy family’s darling daughter. Everything will follow the traditional betrothal practices and the proper rites.”

Saying this, he pulled a red, hardbound book from a kraft paper bag and handed it to Barry with both hands. This is the list of gifts I’ve prepared for Marilla. Please have a look.”

Barry opened the book, and Gary couldn’t help but stretch his neck to take a look. What a list! Just looking at it was dizzying!

Barry put on his reading glasses and pored over the list, his snow white brows furrowing more and more, his expression growing increasingly solemn.

Was this chap planning to empty a house to please the lady?

“Wow, Jareth, you’re really laying it on thick for Ms. Marilla, Gary remarked sarcastically. “Even Chairman Emeric of Skyrim, marrying four wives together, might not match the grandeur of your gift, huh?”

“Uncle, you exaggerate. It might be a bit much, but not by that much”

Jareth chuckled coldly. “Besides, these are things I’ve saved up over the years, rest assured, not a dime comes from the company funds.”

Gary’s face stiffened, swearing silently–was this brat fiaunting his wealth?

“Is it necessary to be so extravagant just for an engagement?” Barry asked, a touch of displeasure in his voice.

“Yes. Marilla is worth it!

Jareth spoke without hesitation. “I even feel the preparations are rushed and that they are modest. But it’s okay. I’ll make it up to her later.

Barry felt a lump in his throat, his voice l low. “Fine, it’s your engagement. You handle it.”

“Thank you, Grandpa, for your blessing.” Jareth beamed and bowed deeply.

“Jareth, with your engagement day just around the corner, don’t you have an invite for your dear uncle? I was planning to give you a hefty gift, Gary said with feigned enthusiasm.

“No need for the trouble, I am not short of it. Just send your best wishes from afar

Gary was left speechless.

“Grandpa, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave”

Jareth exited the study, Gary trailing behind, both men leaving the room.

Hearing the click–clack of high heels on the fioor, Jareth’s gaze lifted, and then it turned steely in an instant.

He saw Edith, walking gracefully towards them, tray in her hands.
