Chapter 248

Evadne could feel the heat radiating from Thaddeus’s palm, wave after wave washing over her skin.

She thought, “Crazy man! What’s gotten into you again? Take off your d*rty hand!

As if sensing her attempt to break free, the man’s fingers nearly crushed her shoulder, gripping her with a force that felt like they were fused together.

The sight of the former husband and wife being so intimate startled everyone!

Only Hamilton, their grandfather, sported a surprised yet relieved grin. His previously suppressed mood instantly blossomed, his mouth agape with joy.

He thought, “Oh my! Have Ilana and Thaddeus gotten back together? But llana doesn’t seem to be too pleased, does she?”

Well, whether it’s relentless pursuit or forced courtship, his grandson’s thick skull finally seems to have a crack of understanding! Any progress in their relationship was worth celebrating with fireworks!

Evadne, having had enough, took advantage of the distraction. She slowly lifted her foot and stomped down hard.

“Ugh.” Thaddeus’s brows furrowed slightly, a barely audible grunt escaping him..

Only she could hear it.

Evadne curled her l*ps in a smirk, her stiletto heel grinding into the tip of the man’s bespoke leather shoes.

Ah! That was satisfying.

But Thaddeus was in such pain that his l*ps trembled!

The intense pain almost made his soul fly out of his b*dy!

Thaddeus clenched his teeth, his eyes slowly turning to look at the smug woman in his arms.

Involuntarily, his stern eyebrows softened.

Hmm, did bullying him make her so happy?

Then he didn’t mind letting her step on him again.

“Grandpa! I’m being framed!”

Glynnis, seeing that if things continued this way, the former couple would smear her in front of their grandfather, pulled Cedric in to show her innocence. If I were really guilty, even Mr. Cedric couldn’t possibly get me acquitted! The police aren’t fools, how could they not replace evidence against a guilty person? From beginning to end, it’s all Evadne framing me!”

“Mr. Hamilton, the police have a strict procedure for handling cases.

Cedric also stepped in to defend Glynnis at this time, “I am Miss Glynnis’s lawyer, and my job is to ensure the protection of my client’s legal interests to the fullest extent. I don’t have the power to distort the truth.”

He then turned to Evadne, his gaze inscrutable, “Ms. Evadne, I don’t know what personal grudges you have with my client, but I think you shouldn’t resort to underhanded tactics to resolve issues. Moreover, as the daughter of Chairman Emeric, known for his magnanimity, you should also be more forgiving, shouldn’t you?”

Evadne narrowed her eyes slightly, scoffing.

She thought, “Hmm, does this man live in a tabloid, so full of gossip? He seems to forget the humble way his father Dave brought him to thank Emeric when he was a young boy.”

Cedric had also put a heavy hat on Evadne, turning the blame back onto her!

“Huh.”

Suddenly, Thaddeus let out a cold, chilling chuckle.

That magnetic and intimidating laugh made even Evadne, who was in his arms, shudder.

Mr. Cedric seems to think highly of himself after being given too much respect.”

The man’s eyes glowed with a faint red hue, his piercing gaze fixed on Cedric, “What did I tell you before you came in? Do you have a bad memory? How could you forget so quickly?

Evadne’s pupils contracted. Had he contact with Cedric before?.

What did they talk about?

Elspeth and Glynnjś were both stunned, taking a half step back. They felt that Thaddeus’s aura was even heavier than a ghost’s at this moment!

Cedric’s pretentious smile was on the verge of collapsing, his expression a mix of shock and anger, gradually twisting.

“Thaddeus! How could you talk to Mr. Cedric like that? He is our guest after all!Frederic couldn’t help but scold.

After all, he still wanted to make use of Cedric in the future, seeing him as a potential ally. Wasn’t Thaddeus just making trouble for him?

“He is your guest, not mine.”

Thaddeus’s cold gaze swept over Frederic’s flushed face, then slowly moved back to Evadne’s clear, captivating eyes.

As their eyes met, his gaze suddenly softened, as if the whole world had disappeared and only she remained in his sight.

“I’ve said it before, anyone who dares to mess with Ms. Evadne, I definitely won’t let them off easily.”

Evadne took a deep breath, her heart trembling slightly. Her gaze seemed to be sucked in by Thaddeus, unable to look away. Cedric swallowed hard, his hands clenched secretly.

Mr. Cedric, have you remembered my words this time?
