Chapter 217
Keyn was fuming, spitting fire at Evadne as if she had murdered his mother, bullied his wife, and desecrated his family’s cemetery
Jason’s handsome face turned crimson at the harsh words, but Evadne seemed unbothered instead, her red lips curled up into a playful smile, “Well, this is interesting”
What did you just say?” Kevin demanded, his face paling
I just said that Caroline is interesting” Evadne replied, reaching for another piece of chocolate. Seeing her sweet tooth, Jason couldn’t help but chuckle
“You’ve known Caroline for only two months, yet you’re willing to risk your career and your life for her. Wow, the must be quite a catch. But let me tell you something. Kevin. You have no night to criticize me“
Evadne’s icy gaze never wavered. “And if you dare to harm the Ashbourne family’s business, don’t expect any mercy from me. I am not known for my patience.
Kevin was taken aback, the fear he had been suppressing surged up again. Evadne’s intimidating aura was too overpowering Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
1 will tell you the truth, Kevin Caroline never loved you. She was only using you because you were an easy target”
“Stop your bes” Kevin roared, sounding like a wounded animal 7 am the one to blame, not Caroline! You have no right to slander hert
Ignoring his outburst, Evadne ordered Jason to turn on the TV. The screen it up with explicit photos, featuring none other than Kevin’s beloved Caroline and the President of Pioneer Post
Smith!
Jason was taken aback. He hadn’t expected this. “Where did you get these?’ he whispered to Evadne
1 tell you later,” she replied, glancing at Kevin who was on his knees, sobbing uncontrollably.
“Why would she do this to me?” Kevin cried, his tears falling like a torrential rain.
“You were used, Kevin. And behind Caroline, there must be someone else pulling the strings,” Evadne said, her voice cold and detached,
Kevin cried even harder, his regret palpable. He didn’t regret ruining his future, but the fact that he had fallen for a woman who had only used him.
Ms. Ashbourne I will tell you everything I know”
After a ruthless interrogation, Kevin confessed everything about how Caroline had manipulated him into stealing the business secrets. Jason-recorded everything ready to press charges against Kevin for commercial theft
Now that they had caught the cicada, it was time to go after the mantis
Evadne sighed, looking at her untouched desk, 1 must say, he did a good job keeping everything in order. It’s a shame he chose the wrong path
“Miss Evadne, you still haven’t told me
“Thaddeus gave me the photos”
Jason was taken aback, Thaddeus? But he’s our competitor. Why would he help us?”
“Perhaps he didn’t want to lose his business to Elspeth and her daughter. He probably thought that I could help him take down Glynnis.”
Evadnes thoughts drifted back to Thaddeus, the man who had gently wiped her hair that might. She let out a cold laugh, Td rather believe in ghosts than trust that man. He probably thought that by sending an anonymous email, I wouldn’t figure out it was him How nave
“So, Miss Evadne, now that we’ve removed the rotten fish from our pond, what are we going to do about Caroline?” Jason asked
Jason couldn’t help but reveal a hint of worry. “Even with Kevin’s statement, without substantial evidence, we can’t charge her.”
“Who wants to charge her? Law can punish the guilty but it can’t punish a shameless man
Evadne’s narrowed eyes flashed coldly as she looked at the naked couple on the screen, Send these photos to Mrs Smith, the presidents wife”
“Miss Evadne, as far as I know, Mrs. Smith is good at martial arts”Jason’s eyes were intriguing
en’t that a good opportunity to exercise? It’s like free practice training
Evadne’s slender hand once again sneaked into Jason’s suit pocket, trying to grab some chocolates, Tve already taken care of her father, so let’s not personally deal with her anymore, or else would seem like I’m just as ruthless as the tycoons in those Korean dramas
Jason suddenly placed his large hand over her pocket, gently holding her mischievous hand through the suit fabric, and gently advised, “Miss Evadne, eat less, Im worried about your
teeth”
That night, Thaddeus didn’t rush back to Windermere Estate after finishing his work. Instead, he sat in his office, waiting for news from Gordon
Finally, Gordon returned, his eyes full of joy.
Mr. Thaddeus! Mrs Abernathy has caught the mole in her company and has sent him to the police station!”
“Mm”Thaddeus casually responded, his hanging heart finally setting
1 wonder if Mrs. Abernathy has used the things you sent her.”
It doesnt matter if the didn1″
Thaddeus thought of that ambitious woman, his deep eyes gaining a hint of depth, “What I gave her is just the icing on the cake. I believe with her capabilities, even without the information I gave her, she could handle this matter very well.”
He had been underestimating his ex-wife.
He remembered what he used to do. In that marriage he had always thought of Evadne as a dull and boring woman with no special skills other than cooking
Now it seemed not only was he blind, he was also foolishly naive.
A lifetime of miserable history!
At this moment, the internal phone rang Thaddeus pressed the speaker, “What is it?”
“Mr. Thaddeus, the secretary of President Ashbourne is here to see you. He didn’t make an appointment, should I ask him to leave?”
Upon hearing that it was Jason who had come, Gordon, like a cat seeing a dog, became incredibly annoyed and rolled his eyes.
“Let him in “Thaddeus ordered coldly
It was never easy to meet the CEO of the Abernathy Group.
But because Jason was Evadne’s assistant, Thaddeus was willing to give him this opportunity
A few minutes later, Jason walked into the office with a frosty expression.
Mr Thaddeus, Im here on Miss Evadnes orders to deliver something to you
Then Jason placed a pure white box on Thaddeus’s desk
“What’s in the box?” The man looked at the box without even lifting his eyelids
A bomb “tason responded coldly.
Thaddeus slightly frowned and said nothing.
“Hey, do you think you’re funny?”
Seeing this henchman of Mrs. Abernathy, Gordon was angry and snapped, “If it’s really a bomb, how could you pass the security check at our Abernathy Group?” Jason sneered, “So you shouldn’t have anything to ask in any case, it’s not a contraband item. If Miss Evadne gives it to you, you should accept it”
Gordon gritted his teeth in annoyance. This man looked like a gentleman but had a foul mouth!
Thaddeus pursed his lips, harboring doubts as he opened the box.
Inside was indeed not something dangerous, but a cute dog shaped cream cake, looking adorably ugly
Involuntarily, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
“Did Miss Evadne make this herself? His calm eyas concealed a trace of delight
“Mr Thaddeus, how could you wish for such a beautiful thing? This is something Miss Evadne asked me to buy for you.”
Jason laughed mockingly. “Do you think you deserve to have Miss Evadne cook for you?”
Thaddeus was caught off guard, his jawline tightened slightly
“You’re really not funny, Miss Evadne has cooked for Mr. Thaddeus before. If he’s not worthy, could she have cooked for three years?” Gordon couldn’t hold back his refort
Jason looked at Thaddeus with disdain, lana can make dog food, Miss Evadne cant”
Gordon was completely enraged, his fists clenched and ready to fight, “You’re insolent!” Enough, Gordon”
Thaddeus stopped him, and then asked in a deep voice, “Why did Evadne send me this?”
“Miss Evadne asked me to come and tell you that she has received those anonymous things you sent her. This is a gift from Miss Evadne in return”
Thaddeus was slightly taken aback
She knew that? So soon?
“Miss Evadne sent this cake to remind you not to treat her as a fool She’s clever and has a lot of capable people around her, she doesn’t need a silly adviser to help.” After saying this Jason turned
around and left the office without saying goodbye.
“Sity adviser? Is he referring to you?”
It was obvious, but the secretary had to point it out!
Only when he saw Thaddeus’s dark and handsome face did he realize his mistake and quickly retreated to the corner in fear
