His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Geez! Emeric’s words were just unbearable. What kind of father cursed his own son to die? “Really, is that necessary?” Elvis squinted at his father, raising an eyebrow slightly. “I’m sure I need to take good care of myself for your sake. Otherwise, when your critical illness notice comes in the future and a decision needs to be made by the family, I’m afraid my brothers won’t have the guts. So, you’ll have to rely on your obedient son, me.” “You dare to decide my life and death! I’ll teach you a lesson Emeric blew his top, shouting for the butter to punish him while wishing he could take off his handmade leather shoes and throw them at Elvis’ smirking face! Cas sius and Arnold had a hard time calming him down. Suri and Aviana also tried to soothe him, but they couldn’t quench Emeric’s rage. Suddenly, a gentle as water voice came weakly, “Um, the food is ready, shall we eat?” The noisy crowd went silent, and all heads turned. Myra, slender in her apron, holding a spatula in her hand, her delicate skin glowing, looked at everyone with a puzzled face. Gurgle. Emeric’s belly timely rumbled, “Eat, eat! Only with a full belly will I have the energy to teach you a lessont Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and accompanied Emeric to the dining room. “Elvis, your joke just now was a bit too much. Dad is a broad-minded man, but you shouldn’t say things like that Cas sius spoke seriously to Elvis. “Who told you I was joking? I was very serious.” Elvis raised an eyebrow. “Elvis.” Cas sius’ face suddenly changed; his eyes were cold as if a chilling wind had swept through “Humph, why are you angry? He was the one who cursed me first; I was just responding. Okay, let’s not talk about it. Don’t look at me like that I’ll have nightmares.”

Elvis took a cold breath and immediately became obedient, mumbling and walking towards the dining room. Cas sius’s gaze softened again, helplessly sighing and following after him. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Ah, only Cas sius can keep Elvis in check; one look of warning, and Elvis immediately becomes as docile as a bird.” Arnold tried to imitate Cas sius, furrowing his brows and straining his eyes. 1 guess I need to learn Cas sius’ deadly glare; see if Elvis dares to defy me!” Evadne looked at him with disdain and said, “Stop trying: your eyes are going worky.” Tonight, Emeric was in an exceptionally good mood, drinking and glowing with a red face, one gla** after another. Suri had tried to stop him several times but to no avail. Although at the dinner table, father and son at the opposite ends of the table had no communication, everyone could see that Emeric was genuinely touched that Elvis could come to visit him. He often glanced at Elvis when others weren’t paying attention, as if the person sitting there was someone he deeply cared about. Elvis keenly sensed this deep gaze but always avoided it The old man’s heart inevitably felt a bit lost Evadne was very sensitive, able to catch every subtle change, which made her a bit uneasy. She clearly knew that Elvis’ pain had not been relieved; he still resented Emeric for not being able to love only their mother. The Ashbourne family’s business was huge, with a huge wealth. A billion-dollar fortune, even if divided among their eight siblings, or even if they added eight more children, would still not run out. Emeric, as the helmsman of the family business, was gracious and charming, very much a man of honor. In his youth, he was nearly a**a**inated several times but always narrowly escaped, and in his middle age, he created many miracles in the business world. Such a man could be said to be almost perfect; his only flaw was that he was too romantic. No one was perfect; really, no one was perfect Evadne, like Elvis when she was a child, cried, made a fuss, hated, and resented, but now she had

almost let it all go. Because she knew these were unchangeable, inseparable, and unputdownable. Evadne did not expect Elvis to forgive Emeric, nor would she make excuses for her father. She just hoped that Elvis could let go of all this, stop being sad, and gradually emerge from the shadow of his original family. When the meal was almost over, Elvis burped contentedly. “Honestly, that woman’s cooking skills are really good; I ate three big plates tonight, my exercise volume will have to increase tomorrow.” “Elvis, don’t always talk like this; Myra is also helpless.” Evadne spoke with a complex look in her eyes. “No matter how helpless she was before, after being with Emeric, she became arrogant, becoming Emeric’s wife. How nice.” Elvis squinted his eyes, his tone cold. “Evadne, shouldn’t our mother be the most pitiful? When this big family is happy, when Emeric sleeps with this wife today and that wife tomorrow, does he remember his wife in his heart?” Evadne’s heart trembled; her eyes dimmed. “Of course I know that mom is pitiful; I think about her every day. But Elvis, mom is no longer here, and we as children have to grow up slowly and accept reality. We are the children of the Ashbourne family, and everything about the Ashbourne family still needs us to guard it. The living can only look forward.” “You can but I can’t. I’m a person who lives in memories and can never get out. You are still my closest people, but this place is no longer what I consider home.” The two siblings fell into silence. “Alright, alright, don’t be sad. Whatever you do, I respect your choice.” Elvis saw Evadne’s eyes were red, hurriedly embraced her in his arms, and said gently. “Let’s not talk about this; let me tell you something fun; Thaddeus is here.” “What?!” 13.40G 7 Chapter 76 Evadne’s heart rate accelerated, and she shouted in surprise!

Everyone was also shocked. Emeric frowned. “What are you doing? You scared me.” “I didn’t mean to scare you; I was telling Evadne a story: I didn’t expect her to be so easily scared.” Elvis said with a laugh. “Cut the cr ap! This is scarier than a horror story!” Evadne panted. “If you don’t believe me, you can go check it out. He might still be waiting out there. But don’t worry; the guy probably doesn’t know your real identity. I bet he followed your car with Cas sius.” No sooner had the words left his mouth than Evadne’s phone on the table began to vibrate. She took a deep breath and slowly flipped the phone over. The familiar number flashed before her eyes, causing Evadne to halt her breathing and abruptly end the call. But a second later, Thaddeus called again. Seeing that this man wouldn’t give up easily tonight, Evadne had to get up and answer the call in a corner. “Hello.” She said it in a hushed voice. “Are your wounds better?” Thaddeus’s deep voice echoed in her ears, carried by the night breeze of Skyrirh. Evadne’s heart fluttered, and she softly replied, “Mhm.” “I’m at Cas sius’s door. Come out and see me.” The man’s voice was as cold as ever, with a commanding tone. Evadne felt irritated. All the man’s tenderness was for Acacia, but he was always cold towards her. She didn’t owe him anything. They were divorced now, and he had no right to be so rude to her. “I’m attending a family dinner with President Ashbourne tonight. The whole Ashbourne family is here; I can’t step out.” Evadne retorted coldly. At this point, Thaddeus, standing in the cold wind, swayed slightly, as if deafening thunder had struck near him. The Ashbourne family: a family dinner?

Then he clearly heard the laughter and chatter of the Ashbourne family from the other end of the phone. “Why are you standing there? Desserts are served; come and have some.” It was a woman’s gentle voice. “Got it; I’ll be right there.” Thaddeus heard her relaxed response. His mind was filled with chaotic thoughts. The warmth Ilana was feeling at the moment was something he had never experienced in his life. He hadn’t received it himself; how could he give it to her? “Mr. Thaddeus, it’s not convenient for me to talk here. I can’t meet you tonight either. Let’s talk when I get back to Elmsworth. That’s it.” “Ilana!” Thaddeus’s voice was filled with anxiety. Evadne took a deep breath. His call made her grip the phone tighter, as if his hand had tightly gripped her wrist. “Come out and see me, or I’ll come in to find you; your choice!” Thaddeus took a deep breath. His limbs were cold, but his head was hot. At this moment, he was desperate to take her home, regardless of everything.
