His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 599



Chapter 599

Evadne and Thaddeus exchanged a silent glance, their hearts echoing the sentiments of Hamilton’s

scathing words.

However, it was a good scolding iny longer

“Dad. Cynthia is my wife. I just came to see her. Why do you all have to be so hostile to me?” Frederic

couldn’t stand it any and almost lost his composure in front of his own father at the moment.

“Your wife? Isn’t your wife Elspeth on death row? Hamilton sneered.

Frederic was so angry that he had a splitting headache and clenched his fingers fiercely.

In twenty years, Hamilton had never acknowledged Elspeth as his daughter–in–law. But now admitted

it with eyes full of playfulness. This was like slapping Frederic in the face.

“Dad. The truth about Cynthia’s death has been delayed for 20 years, and now I learned everything, my

heart also hurts!”

Frederic’s eyes were bloodshot, and his fingertips poked his chest fiercely. “Back then, I was under

great pressure to take their mother and son back to the Abernathy Group. Even you opposed my

decision, but I still insisted on doing so! Didn’t I do this because I love Cynthia badly? No matter what,

you shouldn’t insult my love for her!”

Evadne’s beautiful eyebrows twisted slightly. In front of the deceased, these words were so

hypocritical.

Thaddeus was expressionless, and there was no fluctuation in his heart.

Cynthia had been dead for years.

When Cynthia was alive, Frederic didn’t cherish her. But now he feigned sorrow after her death. It was

disgusting

“Yes, you loved Cynthia. When you came to beg me to let her and her son in, I couldn’t believe that the

man standing in front of me who was about to cry bitterly and was suffering from love was my cold and

unfeeling eldest son,

Hamilton stared at him coldly. “I thought that Cynthia’s appearance finally made you feel a little human,

but I still think highly of you. You were obsessed with her, but it was because she was different from the

rich girls you have met. Tired of mundane women, you fell in love with this innocent woman at first

sight. Moreover, you are naturally competitive and possessive. As long. as it is what you like, from a toy

to power and women, which do you not get by hook or by crook? You didn’t cherish her. Her

temperament is reserved and cold, and you soon lost your patience. So Elspeth, the poisonous

woman, appeared and took advantage of the situation to hook you into a daze. In the Abernathy family,

she bullied Cynthia recklessly, which eventually led to an irreparable tragedy.”

The more Hamilton talked, the angrier he became. Standing in front of Cynthia’s tomb, he was so

embarrassed. “I never expected that in the end, you didn’t want Cynthia, but chose a lump of stinky shit

to drag into your bed. Frederic, that crazy woman squatting in prison is your wife. Instead of coming

here and pretending to be affectionate, you might as well go see Elspeth one last time and do your best

as her husband. Don’t show up.

Hamilton was old enough to see through and hit the key.

Frederic’s pale and dry lips opened, but he was so embarrassed that he was speechless.

“Thaddeus, Evadne, let’s go. Let’s go home. I’ll ask the newly invited chef to cook something delicious

for you.” Hamilton looked at the young couple and instantly beamed.

“Okay, Grandpa.” The two of them obediently replied and stepped forward to help Hamilton.

Meanwhile, Frederic watched their retreating figures, feeling like an outsider in his own family, his eyes

rimmed with a furious shade of blue.

“What are you still doing here? Hamilton’s cold voice pierced the stiff air towards Frederic, “You bear an

inescapable responsibility for Cynthia’s death. If it weren’t for you, Elspeth would have never set foot in

the Abernathy family, none of this would have happened, and Thaddeus wouldn’t have had to grow up

without his mother. If you’re here to confess and apologize, then kneel down and do it. An accomplice

has no right to stand before the departed.”

Hearing this, Evadne and Thaddeus shared a look of understanding, their hearts beating in unison.

Frederic watched them leave, his complexion draining of all color, as if drenched from head to toe in icy

water.

Outside the graveyard, a line of luxury cars stood ready Evadne and Thaddeus entered the lead car,

while Hamilton settled into the second one

Soon after, Frederic walked out forlornly, accompanied by Dennis

“Mr. Frederic” Murray approached respectfully. “Mr. Hamilton would like a word with you in the car”

Frederics gaze darkened.

Evadne and Thaddeus exchanged a silent glance, their hearts echoing the sentiments of Hamilton’s

scathing words.

Outside the graveyard, a line of luxury cars stood ready. Exadne and Thaddeus entered the lead car,

while Hamilton settled into the second one.

Soon after, Frederic walked out forlornly, accompanied by Dennis.

“Mr. Frederic,” Murray approached respectfully. “Mr. Hamilton would like a word with you in the car”

Frederic’s gaze darkened

Inside the car, father and son sat side by side, but it felt as if an invisible wall had been erected

between them.

“Dad, what else do you want to talk about? Frederic asked in a subdued tone.

Hamilton looked straight ahead, speaking slowly, “Now that Elspeth has confessed and is facing

execution, her death is certain Unless you still hold a candle for that wretch and want to get her a

reprieve. But let me tell you, I am determined to see Elspeth pay for what she did to Thaddeus’s

mother. No matter who tries to intervene, I’ve tolerated that woman for far too long and now I just want

to see her meet a swift end”

Frederic’s cheeks burned, his teeth clenched, “No, Dad, I’ve seen her true colors. I’m done with her”

That’s good to hear.”

Hamilton’s voice was grave, “Thaddeus is the rightful heir to the Abernathy legacy, yet due to that

woman’s deceit and your neglect, he had to bear the stigma of being an illegitimate son for twenty

years. Now that the truth is out, you should think of a way to clear his name.”

Frederic bowed his head in acknowledgment, “You’re right. I owe it to him and his mother.”

“So what’s your plan to make it up to Thaddeus?”

“The past couple of days had been a whirlwind, and I was handling things one by one. Once the dust

settled, I promised myself, I’d take a beat to think things through.”

“I know you’ve been slammed, so I’ve done some thinking for you.”

At that moment, Hamilton turned his gaze toward him, a look that bore the full weight of his authority.

Thaddeus has poured his heart and soul into the presidency of the Abernathy Group for years, never

once complaining or shirking his duties. And you? You’ve thrown up every roadblock imaginable to

keep him from the boardroom, pulling out all the stops. I might not have meddled much, but don’t think I

haven’t noticed. You’re well aware of our family’s situation. Chad’s health has taken him out of the

game, and neither of the girls has the knack for this business. The future of the Abernathy Group rests

on Thaddeus’s shoulders. That’s why I plan to transfer my shares to him, beef up his stake in the

company to give him the clout he needs. That way, those old–timers who’ve been undermining him

won’t have a leg to stand on.”

Frederic’s pupils shrank in surprise. “Dad, this is-”

With over 30% of the shares, Thaddeus would have veto power over major company decisions,

skyrocketing his status!

“And that’s not all. I’m also handing over my shares and executive positions in Glory Tech and HT

Tourism to Thaddeus. He won’t just be the president of the Abernathy Group. He’ll be the majority

shareholder of Glory Tech and the managing director on the Board of Directors for HT Tourism,”

With a few casual remarks, Hamilton had sent shockwaves through Frederic and the entire Abernathy

Group

Everyone knew that although Hamilton had stepped down from the chairman’s seat, he still controlled

stakes in various companies and held honorary positions.

Frederic had been itching to get involved in Glory Tech and HT Tourism, but Hamilton never gave him

the chance. Now, he was handing them over to Thaddeus on a silver platter!

It was a move of unmistakable favoritism.

A declaration to the world that Thaddeus was the chosen heir to the Abernathy throne!

“Aren’t you going to say anything? Don’t you agree with my decision?” Hamilton asked, his voice icy

“Of course, you wouldn’t have decided this without careful consideration, Frederic replied, pausing

before adding, “but Thaddeus is still young. Aren’t you giving him too much too soon? I’m afraid the

pressure might be overwhelming and distract him from his future endeavors

“I know exactly what my grandson is capable of. Even if the sky fell, he’d patch it up. Have you ever

had to worry about the company’s affairs since he’s been president? No, because Thaddeus has

handled everything. Pressure only makes him stronger, and it will bring out his full potential. Besides,

he’s about to court the Ashbourne family. Emeric is the wealthiest man in Skyrim! How can I not

prepare a fitting dowry to raise my grandson’s status? We can’t have him looked down upon. He won’t

be anyone’s chanty case Hamilton’s eyes twinkled with dreams of his grandchild’s future.

Frederic bit his tongue, holding back any further objections.

He knew better than to push his father’s buttons, which would only lead to Thaddeus gaining even

more power.

Hamilton leaned back comfortably and waved dismissively at Frederic’s gloomy expression. “Go on,

get out of the car. I’m off to dinner with my grandson and his wife. To keep the family peace, you’re not

invited”

Across the ocean, in a room brimming with artistic flair and a view of the elegant forest outside, the

ambiance was reminiscent of the picturesque waterside villages back home Birds chirped melodiously,

transporting one back to a serene landscape.
